The aggregation behavior of collagen-based materials plays an important role in their processing because it could affect their physicochemical properties. Based on the intrinsic fluorescence characteristic of tyrosine, fluorescence spectrum technology was used to investigate the aggregation state of the acylated collagen molecules in aqueous solution. The results showed that the aggregate degree of the acylated collagen was higher than that of the native collagen due to the hydrophobic interaction. With the increase of concentrations of the acylated collagen or at NaCl higher than 40 mmol/L, the aggregate degree of the acylated collagen molecules increased. When the pH was close to the isoelectric point of the acylated collagen, the hydrophobic interaction and the hydrogen bond helped to increase the aggregation degree. However, with the increase of temperature (10–70 ℃), the aggregation state of the acylated collagen decreased gradually due to the quenching, the molecular collision, and the broken of hydrogen bonds. Furthermore, two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-COS) showed that the response order was 360 > 305 nm at various acylated collagen and NaCl (>40 mmol/L) concentrations, while the response order was 305 > 360 nm when the pH value was increased from 5.0 to 9.0. Temperature-dependent 2D-COS showed there were four bands that occurred and the response order was listed as follows: 293 > 305 > 360 > 420 nm. In brief, the results might provide an important guide for molding processes of the acylated collagen.

Infrared (IR) spectra of a supramolecular assembly with an azobenzene derivative and intermolecular hydrogen bonds have been measured in the temperature range from 30 to 200 °C to investigate heat-induced structural changes and thermal stability. Principal component analysis (PCA) and two kinds of two-dimensional (2D) correlation spectroscopy, variable–variable (VV) 2D and sample–sample (SS) 2D spectroscopy, have been employed to analyze the observed temperature-dependent spectral variations. The PCA and SS 2D correlation analyses have demonstrated that the complete decoupling of hydrogen bonds in the supramolecular assembly occurs between 110 and 115 °C, which is in good agreement with the results of a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) study for the heating process. The PCA of the IR spectra in the region of 3600–3100 cm−1 has illustrated that there are at least four principal components for the different NH2 and CONH species in the present supramolecular system. The VV 2D correlation spectroscopy study has provided information about the structure and strength of hydrogen bonds of NH2 and CONH groups and their temperature-dependent variations. The different species of hydrogen-bonded NH2 and CONH groups in the supramolecular system can be clarified by the VV 2D correlation analysis. The VV 2D correlation analysis has also revealed the specific order of the temperature-induced changes in the hydrogen bonds of NH2 and CONH groups.

Schistose and aciculate CuO nanostructures have been synthesized by a novel ammonia assisted hydrothermal method of copper alginate. The conversion processes of copper alginate are investigated by thermogravimetrics (TG) analyses under N2and air atmosphere. The morphology, structure, and composition of the obtained CuO are investigated using SEM,TEM and XRD. It is found that different temperature and pH value resulted in the morphology and structure evolution of CuO. Ammonia was used as structure-directing agent in the hydrothermal system. The aggregation state of the nanostructures was controlled by the temperature. Dispersive schistose structures about 1μm in diameter were synthesized with 0.5mL ammonia at different temperatures. Dispersive microspheres of about 4 μm in diameter were also synthesized with 1 mL ammonia. Microspheres composed of nanoneedles and nanoplates were synthesized at 120°C and 160°C, respectively. Moreover, a possible growth mechanism governing the formation of such a nanomicrostructure was primarily discussed.
