福建省基性岩的年代学和地球化学：晚中生代以来中国东南部地幔演化

中国东南部地处太平洋板块与欧亚板块的接合部位，其独特的地理位置和构造运动长期以来引起了地质学家的广泛关注。自印支运动以来，板内构造演化复杂而多样。最引人注目的无疑是燕山期广泛而强烈的构造一岩浆热事件。近年来随着研究的深入，逐渐凸显出两个重要的地质问题需要解决：（1）中国东南部晚中生代构造属性的转变时间及地球动力学演化过程；（2）多金属成矿作用与岩石圈伸展减薄及地壳拉张的关系。基于此，本文以中国东南部福建省的基性脉岩、岩体为研究对象，运用系统的矿物学、岩石学、岩石地球化学、同位素地球化学及同位素年代学证据，详细论述了晚中生代中国东南部板块俯冲、地慢演化、壳幔相互作用及岩石圈伸展减薄的地球动力学过程，探讨了地壳拉张期次在福建省区域构造上的响应。本研究主要获得以下几点认识：1、岱前山辉长岩体沿福建长乐一南澳大断裂带分布，侵位于沿海的绿片岩相和角闪岩相的变质岩中及内陆的中生代火山岩中。岩体的微量元素特征表现为与俯冲作用有关的岛弧特点。岱前山岩体由低程度部分熔融形成（约7％），伴有角闪石、单斜辉石的分离结晶作用和斜长石的堆晶作用。时间上与古太平洋板块低角度一歪斜俯冲、晚中生代的变质事件、平潭一东山变质带抬升和长乐一南澳剪切带运动在时间上基本一致。岩体是受俯冲流体交代的上地慢，经部分熔融沿长乐一南澳断裂一应力转换带侵入。它与中国东南部出露的其它基性岩同源，但未受到地壳的混染作用。2、闽南茅坪一晒鞍角基性侵入体具独特的地球化学属性，表现为高Al2O3、CoO、MnO，低FeOT、MgO、TiO2含量，富集轻稀土元素（LREE）和大离子亲石元素（LILE），并具正的Pb异常和负的Ti异常；Sr-Nd-Pb同位素结果显示，该基性岩有EM2组分的参与。模拟计算表明，该基性岩墙群是尖晶石二辉橄榄岩地慢5-15％部分熔融的产物；微量元素配分模式及理论模拟表明茅坪一晒鞍角基性岩体的地慢源区在熔融前曾受到1％俯冲沉积物熔体的源区混染和5％流体交代作用。基性岩浆在上升过程中还受到10％左右的地壳物质的混染作用，导致该区基性岩富放射成因Sr、Pb同位素。3、福建省晚中生代基性脉岩富Al2O3（14.0-20.4 wt%）、CaO（4.09-12.7wt％）。按地球化学特征可分为两组：第一组脉岩具较低稀土总量（53.8-145.5μg／g）和平缓的稀土配分模式L（La/Yb）n=1.68-4.651，而第二组脉岩的稀土总量较高（63-247μg／g），且轻稀土富集［（La/Yb）n＝4.63-19］。在原始地慢标准化图解上，第一组脉岩显示Pb的正异常和Ti负异常，无Nb、Ta异常，而第二组脉岩显示明显的Nb一Ta一Ti负异常和Pb正异常。两组脉岩经历了不同的源区混合和陆壳混染过程，第一组脉岩显示了以陆壳混染为主的地球化学过程，不具有岛弧特点的微量元素配分模式表明该类基性岩的地慢源区可能未受俯冲作用过程影响，第二组脉岩的岛弧地球化学特点暗示该类基性岩地慢源区是经俯冲作用改造过的富集岩石圈地慢。第一组基性脉岩来源于石榴石一尖晶石二辉橄榄岩地慢，而第二组脉岩来源于尖晶石或尖晶石一斜长石二辉橄榄岩地慢。地球化学数据显示，不同类型的地慢存在不均一性，反映了不同程度的交代作用或不同量俯冲沉积物的加入。福建省晚中生代基性脉岩产生于拉张构造背景，与岩石圈的伸展减薄及软流圈的上涌紧密联系；4、福建省基性脉岩的同位素特征显示，第一组脉岩具较高的143Na／144Nd，第二组脉岩的143Nd／144Nd较低；Th/Nd、Ba/La比值及理论模拟结果表明，第二组脉岩可能受到流体交代和俯冲沉积物的源区混合作用，而第一组脉岩基本未受俯冲组分（沉积物＋流体）的改造。地壳混染对两组脉岩可能起着重要的作用。EC-AFC理论模拟表明，福建省基性脉岩在上升过程中受到前寒武纪变质岩的影响，这种混染作用在一定程度上改变了同位素组成。因此，福建省晚中生代基性脉岩的地球化学特点是太平洋板块俯冲与壳慢相互作用共同作用的结果；5、K-Ar年龄结果表明，出露于福建省的基性脉岩年龄具周期性分布，表现为五个周期：70-75Ma士，85 Ma士，105-110Ma，125Ma士和135-140Ma。这与前人的研究结果基本一致，表明福建省与中国东南部区域上有相似的地壳拉张期次。K-Ar年龄主要集中分布在14OMa→65Ma之间，这表明：①140M。限定了中国东南部岩石圈伸展作用开始的下限，也就是说中国东南部晚中生代的岩石圈伸展至少开始于140Ma左 右，而并非90Ma；②标志着中国东南部大规模拉张作用的开始，表明构造属性由令挤压为主转变为以拉张作用为主。

Perovskite-type B-site Bi-doped ceramic membranes for oxygen separation

Novel mixed conducting oxides, B-site Bi-doped perovskites were exploited and synthesized. Cubic perovskite structures were formed for BaBi0.2COyFe0.8-yO3-delta (y less than or equal to 0.4) and BaBixCo0.2Fe0.8-xP3-delta (x=0.1-0.5) The materials exhibited considerable high oxygen permeability at high temperature. The oxygen permeation flux of BaBi0.2Co0.35Fe0.45O3-delta membrane reached about 0.77 x 10(-6) mol/cm(2) s under an air/helium oxygen partial pressure gradient at 900 degrees C, which was much higher than that of other bismuth-contained mixed conducting membranes. The permeation fluxes of the materials increased with the increase of cobalt content, but no apparent simple relationship was found with the bismuth content. The materials also demonstrated excellent reversibility of oxygen adsorption and desorption. Stable time-related oxygen permeation fluxes were found for BaBi0.2CO0.35Fe0.45O3-delta and BaBi0.3Co0.2Fe0.5O3-delta a membranes at 875 degrees C.

A novel method to synthesize amorphous silica-alumina materials with mesoporous distribution without using templates and pore-regulating agents

In this study, a novel sol-gel method is used to synthesize amorphous silica-alumina materials with a narrow mesoporous distribution and various Si/Al molar ratios without using any templates and pore-regulating agents. During the preparation procedure, only inexpensive inorganic salts were used as raw materials, instead of expensive and harmful alkoxides. The precursor sol was dried at room temperature in a vacuum box kept at 60 mmHg until it began to form the gel. The results of a nitrogen sorption experiment indicate that the synthesized materials with different Si/Al molar ratios have similar mesoporous distributions (within 2-12 nm). Moreover, it was found that the material's pore size distribution remains at a similar value during the heat treatment from room temperature to 550 degreesC. On the basis of the nitrogen sorption, TEM, and AFM characterization results, a formation mechanism of mesopores which accounts for the experimental data is also suggested. This suggested mechanism involves rearrangement of the primary particles during the drying process to form the precursors of the similarly sized mesopores. The synthesized materials were characterized by XRD, thermal analysis (TG/DTA), Al-27 and Si-29 MAS NMR spectroscopy, SEM, TEM, and AFM. The results of Al-27 and 29Si MAS NMR indicate that the distribution of silicon and aluminum in the synthesized materials is more uniform and homogeneous than that in the mixed oxides prepared via the traditional sol-gel method even at high alumina contents. The type and density of the acid sites were studied using pyridine adsorption-desorption FTIR spectroscopy. It was shown that the acidity of the synthesized materials is higher than that of the silica-alumina materials prepared by conventional methods.

Templateless synthesis of catalysts with narrow mesoporous distribution

In this study, amorphous silica-alumina nanomaterials with narrow mesoporous distribution can be obtained by two novel sol-gel processes, without the use of any templates. The results of our experiments show that the preparation method has a great influence on the precursor sol structure as well as the specific surface area and mesopore volume of the final product, but has no effect on the pore size distribution.

Ultrasonic synthesis of silica-alumina nanomaterials with controlled mesopore distribution without using surfactants

A novel sol-gel process has been developed for the synthesis of amorphous silica-aluminas with controlled mesopore distribution without the use of organic templating agents, e.g., surfactant molecules. Ultrasonic treatment during the synthesis enables production of precursor sols with narrow particle size distribution. Atomic force microscopy analysis shows that these sol particles are spherical in shape with a narrow size distribution (i.e., 13-25 nm) and their aggregation during the gelation creates clusters containing similar sized interparticle mesopores. A nitrogen physiadsorption study indicates that the mesoporous materials containing different Si/Al ratios prepared by the new synthesis method has a large specific surface area (i.e., 587-692 m(2)/g) and similar pore sizes of 2-11 nm. Solid-state Al-27 magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR shows that most of the aluminum is located in the tetrahedral position. A transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image shows that the mesoporous silica-alumina consists of 12-25 nm spheres. Additionally, high-resolution TEM and electron diffraction indicate that some nanoparticles are characteristic of a crystal, although X-ray diffraction and Si-29 MAS NMR analysis show an amorphous material.

Mesoporous spinel MgAl2O4 prepared by in situ modification of boehmite sol particle surface: I Synthesis and characterization of the unsupported membranes

Mesoporous spinel membranes as ultrafiltration membranes were prepared through a novel sol-gel technique. By in situ modification of the sol particle surface during the sol-gel process, control of the material structure on a nanometer scale from the earliest stages of processing was realized. Nano-particles with a chocolate-nut-like morphology, i.e. spinel MgAl2O4 as a shell and gamma -Al2O3 as a core, were first revealed by HRTEM results. The formation of the spinel phase was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). N-2 adsorption-desorption results showed that the mesoporous membranes had a narrow pore size distribution.

Mechanistic studies of methane partial oxidation to syngas over LiNiLaOx/Al2O3 catalyst

Temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) characterization of the LiNiLaOx/Al2O3 catalyst before or after partial oxidation of methane (POM) reaction and a series of O-2, CH4 and CH4/O-2 pulse reaction experiments over the catalyst under different pretreatments were performed. It was found that CH4 dissociatively adsorbs on active center nickel producing H-2 and surface carbon, C(a). The surface carbon reacts with surface lattice oxygen or surface adsorbed oxygen to produce CO. Because the activation barrier for the reaction C(a)+ O(a) =CO(a) is the highest among all the elementary reactions, the rate-determining step of the POM may be the reaction C(a) + O(a) =CO(a).

Alkanes-assisted low temperature formation of highly ordered SBA-15 with large cylindrical mesopores

Highly ordered SBA-15 silicas with large cylindrical mesopores (similar to 15 nm) are successfully obtained with the help of NH4F by controlling the initial reaction temperatures in the presence of excess amounts of alkanes.

Separation of compounds interacting with liposome membrane in combined prescription of traditional Chinese medicines with immobilized liposome chromatography

Immobilized liposome chromatography (ILC), the stationary phase of which has been regarded as a mimic biomembranes system was used to separate and analyze compounds interacting with liposome membrane in Danggui Buxue decoction, a combined prescription of traditional Chinese medicines (CPTCMs), and its compositions Radix Astragli and Radix Angelica Sinensis. More than 10 main peaks in the extract of Danggui Buxue decoction were resolved on the ILC column, suggesting that more than 10 components in the prescription have significant retention on ILC column. Ligustilide, astragaloside, TV and formononetin, three main bioactive ingredients in Danggui Buxue decoction, were found to have relatively significant, while ferulic acid, another bioactive ingredient in the prescription, relatively weak retention on ILC column. Effects of the eluent pH and amount of immobilized phosphatidylcholine (PC) on separation of interactional compounds in the extract of Danggui Buxue decoction were also investigated. It was found that these two factors strongly affected the retention of some interactional compounds. In addition, the fractions partitioned with different solvents from water extract of this combined prescription were evaluated with this ILC column system. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
