A facile in situ cation exchange strategy has been developed to greatly enhance the UC luminescence of hexagonal phase NaYF4 NPs while maintaining their small particle size and shape. Via a cation exchange treatment by hot-injecting Gd3+ precursors into the as-prepared NPs solution without pre-separation, the naked-eye visible UC emission of the NPs was enhanced about 29 times under 980 nm near infrared (NIR) excitation with unchanged particle size. The cation exchange process was further demonstrated for the case of NaYF4 nanorods (NRs). After the cation exchange, the nanorod was broken into two NPs with stronger emission. The cation exchanged hydrophobic UCNPs were further encapSulated with poly(amino acid) and successfully applied for targeted cancer cell UC luminescence imaging.展开更多

The effect of temperature, space velocity and ion concentration on the breakthrough curves was carefully investigated. At the first exchange section, the maximum proportion of qualified zeolites(QR) was obtained at a temperature of 70 ℃, a weight hourly space velocity of 0.61 h-1, and an ion concentration of 197 mg/L. The minimum length of mass-transfer zone(MTZ) of the resin bed was achieved at a temperature of 70 ℃, a space velocity of 0.61 h-1, and an ion concentration of 423 mg/L. At the second exchange section, the length of MTZ of the resin bed was significantly increased, and the exchange of Na+ ions contained in zeolite Y was more difficult than that achieved at the first exchange section. In both the first and the second exchange sections, the zeolite Y subjected to ion exchange with the resin maintained the similar physical and chemical properties as compared to those exchanged by the conventional approaches, but the zeolite Y, which was obtained after ion exchange, contained a significantly lower content of Na2 O.展开更多

The anions included Keggin [SiW12O40]4-, [SiW11O39]8-, [SiW10O36]8 , [SiW9O34]10-, Dawson [P2W18O62]6-, [P2W17O61]10-, and metal-substituted Keggin derivatives such as [PW11MnO40]7-, [SiW10V2O40]6-, and [GeWgCu3O37]10-. Common species observed in the mass spectra arose from the protonation or cationization of either intact or dehydrated precursor ions. Compared to saturated and substituted POMs, lacunary POMs exhibited distinguished MS behaviors such as a much higher degree of cationization and dehydration of the bare polyoxoanions present in the mass spectra. In addition, some of these lacunary POMs were found to undergo subtle speciation change in solution. Freshly prepared solutions are suggested for synthetics for which lacunary POMs are starting materials. The advantages of the cation-exchange process which are prior to MS analysis are illustrated by an example.展开更多
