Little has been done on understanding this behavior for improving the phosphorus adsorption of lanthanum-carbonate adsorbents in alkaline environments (e.g. eutrophic water bodies). Here, we discover that La2(CO3)3·8H2O, when produced by a conversion reaction from NaLa(CO3)2·xH2O, exhibits high phosphate adsorption capacity in a wide pH window. Under alkaline conditions (e.g. pH = 10), its adsorption capacity decreases by only 8 % compared to the value under neutral pH. By isolating three different lanthanum-carbonate based compounds and analyzing their molecular structures, we find that the trace amount of Na+ residual in our La2(CO3)3·8H2O alters the chemical environment surrounding the La3+ ions, which may significantly boost the phosphate uptake at high pH.

Recently, tremendous attentions have been paid to the high-pressure behavior of low-Z molecules, such as CO, CO2, N2, O2 and mixtures. These molecules tend to polymerize into extended solids at the pressure of 1–100 GPa, but the structures and polymerization mechanisms are still poorly understood. Herein, as a research model, high pressure polymerization process of carbon monoxide (CO) is studied in detail both experimentally and theoretically. The in-situ Raman spectra and angle-resolved X-ray diffraction experiments prove the successful synthesis of p-CO and its amorphous structure. The theoretical simulations reveal that two CO molecules dimerize into the ethylenedione (OCCO) diradical with spin-polarized singlet state firstly, then the OCCO diradical induces the subsequent chain elongation, ring closure and chain crosslinking reactions, leading to formation of the amorphous 3D network. The multiple basic units, hybrid coordination of C/O atoms and complex connecting styles in p-CO are revealed. Based on the polymerization mechanisms, the fundamental principles governing the character (amorphous or crystalline) of extended solids under high pressure are elucidated. Due to the small dipole moment and the head-to-tail disorder of CO molecules, it is reasonable to speculate that crystalline p-CO may exist under more rigorous conditions than 110 GPa and 2000 K, at which the isoelectronic nitrogen (N2) molecules polymerize into a single-bonded cubic form of nitrogen.
