چکیده

زیست­بوم جنگل­‌های بلوط زاگرس، از گسترده­ترین اکوسیستم­های جنگلی در حال تخریب در ایران است که از نظر حفاظت آب و خاک و مسائل اقتصادی و اجتماعی اهمیت بالایی دارد. تنش­های رطوبتی در سال‌های اخیر موجب رو به زوال رفتن این جنگل‌ها در گستره وسیعی شده­است. مقدار و شکل عنصر پتاسیم در خاک با توجه به نقشی که این عنصر در مقاومت گیاه به تنش رطوبتی دارد، اهمیت زیادی دارد. این پژوهش به‌منظور بررسی وضعیت کلی پتاسیم در خاک و درختان بلوط در 10 منطقه جنگلی در استان کهگیلویه و بویراحمد و معرفی عصاره‌گیرهای مناسب برای استخراج پتاسیم صورت گرفت. عصاره‌گیرهای مورد استفاده شامل کلرید سدیم 1 و 2 مولار، کلرید کلسیم 01/0 مولار، مورگان، بیکربنات آمونیم-DTPA، استات آمونیم 1 و 25/0 مولار، استات سدیم 1 مولار، استات منیزیم 1 مولار، اسید نیتریک 1/0 مولار، اسید کلریدریک 2 مولار و اسید سولفوریک 025/0 مولار بوده­اند. میانگین پتاسیم محلول، تبادلی، غیرتبادلی، ساختمانی و کل به‌ترتیب 4/15، 247، 515، 4026 و 4493 میلی‌گرم در کیلوگرم خاک بوده است. پتاسیم استخراج شده توسط عصاره‌گیرهای DTPA، استات آمونیوم 25/0 مولار و کلرید سدیم 1 مولار، بیشترین همبستگی را با پتاسیم برگ بلوط نشان دادند. مقدار پتاسیم موجود در برگ بلوط (در دامنه 65/0 تا 18/1 درصد) همبستگی معناداری با پتاسیم تبادلی خاک نشان داد. نتایج نشان داد که میزان پتاسیم در نیمی از نمونه­های گیاه کمتر از حد بحرانی بوده­است. عصاره‌گیرهای کلرید­سدیم 1 مولار و استات­آمونیوم 25/0 مولار، به‌دلیل همبستگی بیشتر، سادگی روش و اقتصادی­بودن جهت استخراج پتاسیم پیشنهاد می­گردند.

چکیده [English]

Introduction
Recently, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have attracted significant attention due to their various
applications, particularly as slow release fertilizers for essential plant nutrients. Several studies have reported the
release of nitrate and phosphorus from LDHs. Additionally, micronutrients such as zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), and
manganese (Mn) can be structurally incor porated into the metal hydroxide layers. Recent research indicates that
LDHs have considerable potential for releasing these micronutrients. However, further studies are needed to
enhance our understanding of the mechanisms and reactions of LDHs under diff erent conditions. Currently, there
is a lack of information regarding the divalent (M 2+2+) to trivalent cation (M 3+3+) ratios in LDHs and the influence of
malic acid on the release of Zn, Mn, and magnesium (Mg) from these compounds. This study aimed to
investi gate the effects of malic acid and the ratio of M 2+2+/M 3+ on the kinetics release of Zn, Mn and Mg from Mg
Zn Mn Al LDH intercalated with nitrate nitrate.
Materials and Methods
All chemicals used in this study including malic acid (C4H6O5), KCl, Zn(NO3)2.6H2O, Mn(NO3)2.4H2O, Mg(NO3)2.6H2O and Al(NO3).9H2O were of analytical grades, purchased from Chem-Lab or Merck Chemical Corporations. The solutions were made with the decarbonated ultrapure water (electrical resistivity = 18 MΩcm). The LDHs were synthesized by co-precipitation method at constant pH=9.2-9.6. Two types of LDHs were synthesized with varying the M+2(Zn+Mn+Mg)/M+3(Al) 3:1 and 4:1 in the precursor solution while being stirred vigorously in a nitrogen atmosphere. The pH was kept at 9.2-9.6 by adding volumes of 3 M NaOH. The crystals of LDH were ripened in the mixture for 2 h and after that, the precipitates were centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 20 min and washed several times with distilled water and placed in an oven at 70 °C for 8 h to dry. The chemical composition of the synthesized LDHs was determined by furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometry (SavantAA, GBC) after acid digestion. The physical, chemical, and morphological characteristics of the LDHs were determined using X-ray diffraction analysis (Panalytical x Pert ProX-ray diffractometer), Fe-SEM (Sigma VP), FT-IR (Nicolet iS10 spectrometer), and BET (BELSORP Mini II) techniques. A batch study was done to determine the effect of different ratios of M2+/M3+ in LDHs and the effect of malic acid on release of Zn, Mn,and Mg from LDH (3:1) and LDH (4:1). Briefly, 0.01 g of synthesized LDH were put in a centrifuge tube mixed with 10 ml background electrolyte (KCl 0.01 M) and 1.25 mM malic acid in initial pH=6-7 and constant temperature (25±0.5 °C). Blank samples (without ligand) were also considered. Suspensions were shaken at periods ranging from 5 to 720 min agitation (180 rpm). Then, the supernatant solution was separated using a centrifuge at a speed of 4000 rpm for 20 min. Zn, Mn, and Mg concentrations in supernatants solutions were determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The effect of pH in the range of 5 to 10 on the release of Zn, Mn, and Mg from LDH was also studied. Two equations (pseudo-second-order and Elovich) were used to fit the kinetics data.
Results and Discussion
The results showed that the calculated molar ratio of divalent cation to trivalent cation was similar to their molar ratio in the solution prepared for the synthesis of LDH samples. The X-ray diffraction patterns of LDH (3:1) and LDH (4:1) samples showed the existence of strong and sharp peaks for 003 and 006 plates. Accordingly, the reflections of the 003 and 006 plates revealed the layered structure of the synthesized LDH materials. Two bands of FT-IR spectrums around 3480 and 1620 cm-1 for all synthesized LDH materials designated stretching vibrations of the O-H group of hydroxide layers and the interlayer water molecules. The sharp characteristic band around 1382 cm−1 in LDH (3:1) and band around 1354 cm-1 in LDH (4:1) was attributed to the antisymmetric stretching mode of nitrate anion in LDH. The specific surface area of LDH (3:1) and LDH (4:1) were 5.50 m2g-1 and 16.54 m2g-1 respectively. The average pore diameters in LDH (3:1) and LDH (4:1) were 1.92 nm and 2.55 nm, respectively. Time-dependent cumulative release of Zn, Mn, and Mg from LDH (3:1) and LDH (4:1) in the presence and absence of malic acid was investigated. Time-dependent Zn, Mn, and Mg release from LDH (3:1) and LDH (4:1) was accelerated in the presence of malic acid. The Zn, Mn, and Mg release from the LDHs was likely to be separated into two stages. In the initial stage from 0 to 60 min, the release rate of Zn, Mn, and Mg was rapid, then either remained constant or slightly enhanced during 60–720 min. In this research, among the non-linear models used to determine the release kinetics of Zn, Mn, and Mg, the result with the highest R2 values was chosen. The R2 values were 0.91–0.99, 0.93–0.99, 0.93–0.99, 0.89-0.99, and 0.55–0.86 for pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, Elovich, power function, and parabolic diffusion, respectively. So, pseudo-second-order and Elovich models were used to analyze kinetic data. The amounts of release of Zn, Mn and Mg were higher from LDH (4:1) than from LDH (3:1) because of greater specific surface area, volume, and pore diameter in LDH (4:1). A comparison of metal release versus time profiles exhibited that dissolution was greatly dependent on the pH.
Conclusion
The
results of this research indicated that the release of Zn, Mn, and Mg from layered double hydroxides
(LDHs) was influenced by factors such as time, ligand, solution pH, and the type of LDH. According to the
kinetics models fitted to the experimental data, the release rate of Zn, Mn, and Mg from LDH (4:1) was higher
than that from LDH (3:1). In both types of LDH s , the presence of malic acid significantly increased both the rate
and amount of Zn, Mn, and Mg release compared to the absence of malic acid. While this study demonstrated
that varying the ratios of divalent to trivalent cations can influence the amount and rate of Zn and Mn release,
further greenhouse studies are required to confirm the effectiveness of LDH as a slow release fertilizer in
calcareous soils.
