© 2022 American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.Extensive sampling of high-Temperature hydrothermal fluids and diffuse flows within <2 m of the vent orifices at the 9°50′N East Pacific Rise (EPR) hydrothermal vent field reveals formation of nanoparticulate phases and rapid precipitation/aggregation of metal sulfide minerals upon mixing of vent fluid with ambient seawater. Here, we characterize metal sulfide phases via scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM, TEM) in addition to quantifying the concentrations of major and trace metals in filtered and unfiltered fluid samples. Analyses demonstrate that, despite coprecipitation in phases such as chalcopyrite, iron speciation and transport is decoupled from that of copper and zinc. We observe the formation of â 10-500 nm diameter (nano)particulate Zn and Cu sulfide phases that are near-quantitatively removed by filtration. Iron sulfides, conversely, are typically present in SEM images as larger particles up to tens of microns in diameter. Few small nanoparticles (20-100 nm diameter) are captured on the filter, but determination of nitric-Acid-soluble iron in 0.2 μm filtered samples indicates the presence of pyrite nanoparticles. Physical mixing and temperature play a larger role in determining the extent of nanoparticulate pyrite formation than fluid chemistry. In diffuse flow environments, Fe and Cu more commonly co-occur as aggregates of very small crystallites, with the Zn sulfide phases occurring separately. Sample pH and the ZPC (zero point of charge) of metal sulfides exhibit chemical control on nanoparticle and large particle formation versus aggregation. The concentrations of the additional trace metals analyzed vary between vent sites, despite the short distances between the sites and likely similar magmatic sources. Measured trace metal concentrations highlight the importance of diffuse flow systems in hydrothermal metal emissions. These near-vent behavioral differences have implications for the long-distance transport of metals away from vent fields in buoyant and nonbuoyant plumes.

Simultaneous Crystallization and Strain Induction Enable Light-Emitting Germanium Nano/Microbridges for Infrared Lasers
Unlu, Buse; Ghasemi, Milad; Yerci, Selçuk; Boztug, Cicek (2022-04-22)
© 2022 American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.Tensilely strained germanium has been considered a suitable material platform for the realization of a monolithically integrated infrared laser that could allow the development of miniaturized photonic integrated circuits. The crystalline quality of germanium is one of the concerns in this regard since it has to be in the high-quality single-crystal form to endure the required amounts of tensile strain so that the material turns into a gain medium. For t...
Synthesis of a Novel and More Sustainable Cationic Bleach Activator, N-[4-(N, N, N)-Triethylammoniumchloride-butanoyl] Butyrolactam, for Cotton: Optimization and Theoretical Limitations
Altay, Pelin; Yıldırım, Erol; Gürsoy, Nevin Çiğdem; Hauser, Peter J.; El-Shafei, Ahmed (2022-04-11)
© 2022 American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.Activated bleach systems have the potential to produce more efficient kinetically potent bleaching systems through increased oxidation rates with reduced energy cost and less time, hence causing less cellulose polymer chain damage or degradation than conventional hot peroxide bleaching. This article presents a study at the molecular level of a novel and more sustainable cationic bleach activator for cotton than aromatic-based cationic bleach activators u...
Versatile-in-All-Trades: Multifunctional Boron-Doped Calcium-Deficient Hydroxyapatite Directs Immunomodulation and Regeneration
Pazarçeviren, Ahmet Engin; Akbaba, Sema; Evis, Zafer; Tezcaner, Ayşen (2022-07-11)
© 2022 American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.Osseointegration of implants depends on several intertwined factors: osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and immunomodulation. Lately, novel reinforcements allowing faster bonding with osseous tissue have been explored intensively. In this study, we hypothesized the use of boron as a major multifunctional ion to confer versatility to calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite (cHA) synthesized by a wet precipitation/microwave reflux method. By synthesis of boron-doped cal...
Boron Cage Triggered Micellization of a Neutral-Cationic Block Copolymer and Preparation of Boron-Containing Layer-by-Layer Microparticles
Aydemir, Umut; Ugur, Esma; Ermis, Cagdas; Aydemir, Fatma Nur; Ozdemir, Erhan; Banerjee, Sreeparna; Yıldırım, Erol; Akdağ, Akın; Erel Göktepe, İrem (2022-01-01)
© 2022 American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.The preparation of a polymer carrier for a boron delivery agent is presented through a combination of experimental and computational studies. A dodecahydro-closo-dodecaborate (B12H12)2- (B12) anion was used as a model boron-containing agent due to its high boron content. Quaternized poly(2-vinyl pyridine)-b-poly(ethylene oxide) (QP2VP-b-PEO) was chosen as a model neutral-cationic block copolymer to construct the carrier. The electrostatic association bet...
Plasmonic light-management interfaces by polyol-synthesized silver nanoparticles for industrial scale silicon solar cells
Birant, Gizem; Öztürk, İbrahim Murat; Doğanay, Doğa; Ünalan, Hüsnü Emrah; Bek, Alpan (2020-01-01)
© 2020 American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.Plasmonic interfaces are used as an alternative and highly effective light management technique for solar cells. Topdown approaches produce well-ordered and carefully designed plasmonic structures for tailor-made light management; however, they are costly, and their fabrication is time-consuming. Thus, their utilization for industrial-scale solar cells is not trivial. It has been shown that dewetting is a cost- and time-effective bottom-up approach for t...
