We show that the low frequency, long wavelength dynamics of the phase of the pair field for a BCS-type s-wave superconductor at T=0 is equivalent to that of a time-dependent non-linear Schr\"odinger Lagrangian (TDNLSL), when terms required by Galilean invariance are included. If the modulus of the pair field is also allowed to vary, the system is equivalent to two coupled TDNLSL's. We also refer the interested reader to our earlier paper, `Nonlinear Schrodinger equation for superconductors' [cond-mat/9312099], for a different line of derivation
Dispersion of iron was achieved on waste silk fibers (wSF) after grafting of polydopamine (PDA). The catalytic activity of the resulting material (wSF-DA/Fe) was investigated in Fenton-like removal of toxic aromatic dyes (Methylene Blue, Cationic Violet X-5BLN, and Reactive Orange GRN) water. The dye removal yield reached 98%, 99%, and 98% in 10-40 min for Methylene Blue, Cationic Violet X-5BLN, and Reactive Orange GRN, respectively. The catalytic activity was explained in terms of the effects of temperature, dyes, and electrolytes. In addition, the kinetic study showed that the removal of dyes followed pseudo-1st order adsorption kinetics. These findings allow envisaging the preparation of fiber-based catalysts for potential uses in environmental and green chemistry.
Metal–organic cages, a class of supramolecular containers constructed by the self-assembly of metal ions and organic ligands, show great promise as catalytic agents. In this work, we designed and synthesized a series of rhombic dodecahedral Ni–Cu heterometal imidazolate cages (Ni8Cu6L24) that can act as highly active photo-Fenton-like catalysts. These cages possess a high ability to generate hydroxyl radicals (•OH) under visible light in the presence of H2O2, which can rapidly degrade organic pollutants (e.g., rhodamine B, methylene blue, and methyl orange) into CO2 and H2O. Besides, they are robust catalysts, with high catalytic activity and reusability under conditions in high H2O2 concentration, providing potentially advanced materials for degrading persistent organic pollutants.
