    查看更多>>摘要:Spinel cubic ferrites have huge applications in memory and high frequency devices.For the improvement of these modern devices,the magnetic coercivity,permeability,and dielectric properties of a ferrite are the important issues.This article focuses on improving the magnetic coercivity,magnetic permeability,and dielectric properties of Co0.2Zn0.3Ni0.5EuxFe2-xO4 ferrites,where x=0.00,0.06,and 0.10.The X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),field emission scanning electron mi-croscopy(FESEM),energy dispersive X-ray(EDX),vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM),and an impedance analyzer were used to characterize the structural,magnetic,and dielectric properties of the samples.The XRD patterns indicate the formation of spinel cubic structure of the samples with a sec-ondary peak(EuFeO3)for Eu doped samples.The densities and porosities of the samples follow an in-verse trend,where the doped samples'lattice parameters are increased with the increment of rare earth Eu concentration.The FTIR analysis also proves the spinel cubic phase of the samples.The average grain size of the ferrites is obtained via FESEM images,and it is increased from 121 to 198 nm.VSM analysis confirms that doping of the Eu content also changes other hysteresis loop properties of Co0.2Zn0.3-Ni0.5EuxFe2-xO4 ferrites.Particularly,the coercivity of the Eu doped samples is greater than that of the mother alloy(x=0.00).The EDX study shows that there is no impurity contamination in the ferrites.The permeability and dielectric measurements show an improved quality factor of the Eu-doped samples with low magnetic and dielectric losses.Frequency dependent resistivity and impedance analysis also show the improved nature.From the observed properties of the samples,all the investigated ferrites might be strong candidates for potential applications in memory devices,magnetic sensors,and high frequency applications.

    查看更多>>摘要:The deep understanding of 4f-correlated electron motion behavior is experimentally limited due to similar physicochemical properties of rare earth elements(REEs).While the solvent extraction behavior originating from the continuous occupation of 4f electrons along the lanthanide family provides a particular platform to probe the 4f electrons motion behavior and its correlations to their versatile functions.Herein,the complexation between REEs and the prototypical extractant of diethyl phosphoric acid(DEP)was substantially studied based on quantum mechanical calculation.The results firstly show that the average bond lengths between Ln and six coordinated oxygen atoms are consistent with lanthanide contraction phenomenon,and gadolinium break effect is also obviously observed.Secondly,the"tetrad effect"is figured out based on the subtle discrepancy of 4f electrons occupation,namely La-Nd,Sm-Eu,Gd-Dy and Ho-Lu.Specifically,the main composition is 4f5d6p for La-Nd,while the discrepancy is due to the increasing electrons in the 5d shell,while it is 4f5d for Pm-Eu.For Gd-Dy,their 4f orbitals accept little electrons and the donating electrons flow into 6s5d subshells due to the half-filled stability and the enhancement of shielding effect.The electrons donate into 5d6p subshells due to multiply electrons occupation of 4f orbitals for Ho-Lu.These detailed analyses obviously clarify the"tetrad effect"along the lanthanide family due to the different variation of 4f orbital occupation.It is expected that these microscopic understandings provide important guidance for the separation of REEs and the design of new extractants.

    查看更多>>摘要:The loss of rare earths(REs)takes place during the pre-decalcification process of mixed rare earth concentrate.In an effort to reduce such RE loss,a novel idea to improve the leaching selectivity of Ca to REs by applying selective mechanical activation was proposed.First,regarding the key minerals affecting the leaching selectivity of Ca to REs,the differences in the mechanical activation behaviors of CaF2 and REFCO3 were studied,and we find that the lattice strain of CaF2 increases from 0.21%to 0.42%,whereas that of REFCO3 increases from 0.31%to 0.40%.Notably,CaF2 demonstrates a larger lattice strain than REFCO3,indicating greater mechanical activation energy storage and higher leaching activity.Next,the HCl leaching process was studied.A significant leaching selectivity of Ca to REs,from 21.6 to 35.1,is achieved through mechanical activation.The Ca leaching rate reaches 80.7%when the RE loss is 2.3%in the activated sample.This study provides an novel approach for achieving selective extraction of specific components via mechanical activation pretreatment.

    查看更多>>摘要:In recent years,deep eutectic solvents have attracted increasing interest as effective extractants for the separation of both organic substances and metals from various objects.Acid-based deep eutectic solvents are most often used as extractants for the extraction of metals.In this work,for the first time,the extraction efficiency of transition metals and rare earth elements(Y,Zr,Nb,La,Ce,Pr,Nd,Sm,Eu,Gd,Tb,Dy,Ho,Er,Tm,Yb,Lu,Hf and Ta)from mining tailings and Na,K,Ca,Mg,Cu,Fe,Mn,Pb,Ba,Ni and Sr from biodiesel samples using acidic deep eutectic solvents and saturated aqueous solutions of the same acids(malonic,malic,tartaric and citric)is compared.For this,deep eutectic solvents based on acids and their aqueous saturated solutions were prepared and studied.The prepared mixtures were analyzed by IR spectroscopy to confirm the formation of eutectic solvents.Properties such as the density and viscosity of the resulting mixtures were also investigated,as this can be of key importance for the efficiency of metal extraction.The extraction of rare earth metals from mining tailings took a long time(up to several days),while the extraction of metals from fuel took no more than 30 min.Atomic emission spectral methods were used as an analysis method.It is shown that the extraction efficiency with aqueous solutions is better than that with eutectic solvents,which casts doubt on the need for deep eutectic solvents use in this area.

    查看更多>>摘要:In order to increase efficiency and avoid NH4+-N pollution in the leaching process of weathered crust elution-deposited rare earth ores,the mass transfer in heap leaching with Al2(SO4)3 solution was simulated with column elution and experimentally optimized.The results indicate that the leaching yield is also up to 99%for leaching with aluminum sulfate instead of ammonium sulfate.The optimal flow rate is 60 mL/h,the height equivalent to a theoretical plate(HETP)is 1.29 mm correspondingly.The peak value position of RE3+is 60 mL/h,Fe3+is 100 mL/h,however,Al3+is 150 mL/h,and the heap leaching process has kinetic separation effect.
