AbstractA series of acrylonitrile(AN)-methyl acrylate (MA) copolymers (AN/MA) with molar ratios of 100/0-70/30 were synthesized by water depositing polymerization. One to three percent of boric acid (BA) was adopted as a stabilizer to enhance the thermal stability of AN/MA. The copolymers and the mixtures of copolymers treated with BA were characterized by using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR), Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermogravimetry (TG), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Optic Microscope. The results show that melting point (Tm), glass transition temperature (Tg) and crystallinity of the copolymer decreased while decomposition temperature (Td) increased with the increase of MA content. Tm of AN/MA dropped to 174 °C and Td rose up to 321 °C when 15 mol% MA was incorporated. It was worthy to note that Tm of the copolymers increased conspicuously after being treated with BA. Stability of AN/MA with a molar ratio of 85/15 containing 1 wt% BA improved remarkably. The mixture can be kept stable up to 30 min at 220 °C.

A series of polystyrene (PS)/unmodified Na-montmorillonite (Na-MMT) composites were prepared via in situ radical polymerization. The prepared composites were characterized using various techniques. The presence of various functional groups in the unmodified Na-MMT and PS/unmodified Na-MMT composite was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Morphology and particle size of prepared composites was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). According to the XRD and TEM results, the interlayer spacing of MMT layers was expanded. SEM images showed a spongy and porous-shaped morphology of composites. TEM revealed the Na-MMT intercalated in PS matrix. The thermal stability of PS/unmodified Na-MMT composites was significantly improved as compared to PS, which is confirmed using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The TGA curves indicated that the decomposition temperature of composites is higher at 24–51°C depending on the composition of the mixture than that of pure PS. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results showed that the glass transition temperature of composites was higher as compared to PS. The moisture retention, water uptake, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller specific surface area, and specific pore volume of composites were also investigated. Water resistance of the composites can be greatly improved.

Supramolecular hydrogels were formed through F127, acryloyl chloride modified F127 inclusion complex with α-cyclodextrin, respectively. The structure of modified copolymers and inclusion complex was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR). Hydrogels formed from supramolecular inclusion are imparted channel-type structure investigated by wide angle x-ray diffraction (WAXRD). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and TG experiments showed that thermal stability of hydrogels depend on the nature of axis polymer. The relative model was proposed to elucidate the inclusion complexes and hydrogels formation.

Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) of Cu45Zr48-xAl7Tix with x= 0, 1.5, and 3 at.% were prepared by copper mould casting. The corrosion resistance of the BMGs with different Ti contents was examined by potentiodynamic polarization tests and weight loss measurements in 1 N NaOH, 1 N H2SO4, 1 N H2SO4 + 0.01 N NaCl and 0.5 N NaCl solutions, respectively. The newly-developed BMGs’ corrosion resistance in Cl-- or both H+ and Cl--ions containing solutions can be greatly enhanced. The influence of Ti addition on glass forming ability (GFA) and thermal stability was investigated by x-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry in detail. The alloy containing 1.5 at.% Ti exhibits the largest GFA, the critical size comes up to 10 mm in diameter.

AbstractA group of films mainly composed of sericin and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), using boric acid (BA) as a modifier, were prepared by a technique of solution casting. In this work, the effect of BA and sericin on the mechanical properties and water resistance of the films was analyzed, the interior morphology of the films were described by a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the thermal stability of the films was characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and the reaction mechanism was proposed according to the previous literature and the test of Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR). Results indicated that, the properties of the membrane were the functions of the blend ratio of sercin to PVA and the content of BA. The use of BA increased the tensile strength, improved the water resistance and the thermal stability, and varied the interior morphology of the films. The content of sericin greatly influenced the combination of properties of the films, especially the mechanical properties, interior morphology, thermal stability, and water resistance reducing with the increasing of sericin content. The films have potential to be used in materials, such as skin-care coatings for beauty, percutaneous drug delivery systems for exterior intact skin, due to the characteristics of the components and the good mechanical properties of the films.

Abstract Two kinds of novel organic-inorganic bismuth-halide hybrid monocrystalline compounds (C6H5CH2NH3)2BiCl5 and (C6H5CH2NH3)BiI4 were synthesized and characterized. The crystal structure, intermolecular interaction, morphology, chemical groups and bonds, optical and thermal stability of the samples were systematically investigated through single crystal X-ray diffraction, Hirshfeld surface analysis, SEM, FTIR, TG and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra. The results indicated that (C6H5CH2NH3)2BiCl5 and (C6H5CH2NH3)BiI4 crystals displayed a monoclinic system with the space group P21/c and P21/n at room temperature, respectively. These materials showed strong absorption in the ultraviolet and visible light regions, resulting in very low Eg, which could be continuously adjustable from 1.67 eV to 3.21 eV by changing the halogen ratio. In addition, these hybrid materials also exhibited good thermal stability. The decomposition temperature of (C6H5CH2NH3)2BiCl5 and (C6H5CH2NH3)BiI4 were 260℃ and 300℃ respectively. Therefore, these organic-inorganic bismuth-halide hybrid compounds have excellent development potential in the field of solar cell research.

In order to provide a theoretical basis for the preparation and spinnability of two-component materials, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)(PHBV) and polypropylene grafting maleic anhydride (PP-g-MAH) blends were prepared by melt mixing with different ratios (100/0, 75/25, 50/50, 25/75, 0/100). Properties of the blends system were investigated by means of a mixed rheometer, scanning electron microscope, simultaneous thermal analyser, differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction. The results demonstrate that PHBV/PP-g-MAH blends exhibit different morphology of the sea-island with a change in the mix ratio. The initial thermal decomposition temperature of PHBV in the blending system is over 250 °C, which means the thermal stability of PHBV is markedly improved. The crystallisation of PHBV varied according to the blending process parameter. When the cooling velocity increases, the crystallisation peak becomes wide, the temperature of crystallisation decreases, and the crystallisation temperature of PHBV increases significantly. PHBV has a high sensitivity to variation in the shear rate, and PHBV/PP-g-MAH blends have the mixing characteristic of shear thinned liquid. There is no diffraction peak at 2θ = 22.8°, and this result certifies that PP-g-MAH changes the crystal form of PHBV. and that PP-g-MAH addition is beneficial to the spinnability of PHBV. Results show that the interplay between PHBV and PP-g-MAH is of great significance and universal for both plastics and fibres.

A series of ionic liquids consisting of 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium chloride (Pyr14Cl) and TaCl5 at molar ratios of Pyr14Cl in the range of 0.85 - 0.20 was synthesized. They exhibit potential application as electrolytes for the electrochemical deposition of tantalum. The thermal behaviour of the Pyr14Cl-TaCl5 mixtures was investigated, using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to estimate the range of thermal stability and to determine the optimal compositions for electrochemical trials. The Pyr14Cl-TaCl5 mixtures formed stoichiometric 3 : 2 and 2 : 3 crystalline phases with melting points of 70 °C and 130 °C, respectively, characterized by entropies of fusion of 13.6 JK−1 mol−1 and 10.1 JK−1 mol−1. The mixtures with molar fractions of Pyr14Cl equal to 0.60 and 0.40 were clear and transparent liquids and had the lowest viscosity; they were the most suitable for electrochemical applications. FTIR spectra of the Pyr14Cl-TaCl5 mixtures allowed to get insight into inter-ionic interactions and the nature of formation of these ionic liquids as a function of the molar ratio of the components.

Pyrrole and m-toluidine copolymer (P(PY/MT)) / montmorillonite (MMT) Composites were prepared by in situ chemical polymerization of pyrrole with m-toluidine monomer in the presence of montmorillonite. The structural, morphological and thermal properties of these composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). X-ray diffraction result for P(PY/MT)-MMT illuminated the intercalation of P(PY/MT) copolymer between the clay layers. The FT-IR result showed the successful incorporation of montmorillonite clay in the prepared P(PY/MT)/MMT composite. The higher thermal stability of high MMT content rate might be attributed to its higher chain compactness due to the interfacial interaction between the P(PY/MT) and the clay.
