摘要: Extraction behavior of lanthanides (La, Eu, Dy, Lu) from HNO3 solution was studied using a novel extraction system with hydrophobic ionic liquid being diluent and isobutyl-BTP being extractant. Compared with that in isobutyl-BTP/cyclohexane extraction system, application of ionic liquid as the extracting phase provided unprecedented enhancement of the extraction performance of isobutyl-BTP for lanthanides. It was found that the isobutyl-BTP/[Cnmim][NTf2] extraction system is favorable to get good extraction at low acidity condition (isobutyl-BTP/ [Cnmim][NTf2] (n=2, 6, 8) systems, isobutyl-BTP/[C2mim][NTf2] extraction system provides the best extraction performance and fastest extraction kinetics within 5 min towards Dy3+. The extraction is spontaneous endothermic and temperature is good for extraction. The transfer of lanthanides, in isobutyl-BTP/[C2mim][NTf2] extraction system, proceeded via a cation exchange mechanism, in contrast to extraction of neutral complex in the cyclohexane system.

摘要: Poor mechanical properties of PNIPAAm hydrogels have limited their applications. Nanocomposite hydrogels (NC gels) which incorporate inorganic clay possess high mechanical strength and other desirable properties. In this paper, we report a facile approach to synthesize NC gels using radiation technique. With exfoliated clay sheets acting as crosslinkers, N-isopropylacrylamide monomers are polymerized and crosslinked to form NC gels under -irradiation at room temperature. Apart from regular swelling behavior and interesting performance in thermo sensitivity, the radiation synthesized NC gel (RNC gel) has good optical transparency, high strength and flexibility. Through Micro-FTIR, XPS and TG analyses, a particular chemically crosslinked organic/inorganic network was identified in the RNC gel.
