Enhanced Adsorption of Arsenic onto Maghemites Nanoparticles: As(III) as a Probe of the Surface Structure and Heterogeneity
Abstract
When normalized per unit of surface area, the quantity of arsenic adsorbed at the maghemite surface remains constant for particles between 300 and 20 nm. However, nanoparticles smaller than 20 nm exhibit enhanced adsorption capacity. The origin of this observed size-dependence for adsorption or "nano effect" is unclear. Arsenic was chosen as a probe of the surface structure to explore adsorption mechanisms occurring at the surface of maghemite nanoparticles (6 nm). Two factors contributing to the enhanced reactivity of nanoscale maghemites were determined. The first is related to a size-dependent structural modification of the surface of particles and the decrease of the occupancy of the tetrahedral site that leaves vacant, highly reactive adsorption sites. In particular, there is a site localized in a six-membered iron octahedral ring. This site is the only one for which an oxidation of As(III) occurs. The second factor relates to the thermodynamics of a decrease of the surface free energy. The high density of As adsorbed at the saturation of the surface can be related to crystal growth.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
