Powerful antioxidant α-lipoic acid (LA) is easily degraded under light and heating. This creates difficulties in its manufacture, storage and reduces efficiency and safety of the drug. The purpose of this work was to synthesize novel silica-based composites of LA and evaluate their ability to increase photo and thermal stability of the drug. It was assumed that the drug stabilization can be achieved due to LA-silica interactions. Therefore, the composites of LA with unmodified and organomodified silica matrixes were synthesized by sol-gel method at the synthesis pH below or above the pKa of the drug. The effects of silica matrix modification and the synthesis pH on the LA-silica interactions and kinetics of photo and thermal degradation of LA in the composites were studied. The nature of the interactions was revealed by FTIR spectroscopy. It was found that the rate of thermal degradation of the drug in the composites was significantly lower compared to free LA and mainly determined by the LA-silica interactions. However, photodegradation of LA in the composites under UV irradiation was either close to that for free drug or significantly more rapid. It was shown that kinetics of photodegradation was independent of the interactions and likely determined by physical properties of surface of the composite particles (porosity and reflectivity). The most promising composites for further development of novel silica-based formulations were identified.

AbstractThe thermo-oxidative and thermal degradation kinetic parameters of polymethyl methacrylate-methacryloxyethyltrimethyl ammonium chloride/silica aerogel composites (PMMA-MTC/SA) were investigated in this paper and were compared with the thermal stability and thermal conductivity of different types of composites. As a composite with electrostatic interaction, the thermo-oxidative and thermal degradation activation energies (E) of PMMA-MTC/SA were 173.97 and 188.05 kJ/mol, respectively. The results indicated that the electrostatic interaction could indeed enhance the thermal stability of silica/polymethyl methacrylate composites on the premise of good mechanical properties and heat insulation performance. It is of great significance for the further development of silica-based thermal insulation composites.

Luminescence Behavior

A ternary Eu(III) complex with salicylic acid (Hsal) ando-phenanthroline (phen) was synthesized and then incorporated into silica matrix by sol-gel method. The luminescence behavior of the complex in silica gel was studied compared with that of the pure complex by means of emission, excitation spectra and thermogravimetic analysis. The results indicate that the complex Eu(sal)3(phen) in silica gel shows fewer emission lines than pure Eu(sal)3(phen) and the luminescence intensity ratio of the5D0→7F2transition to the5D0→7F1transition is lower than that of the latter. The thermal stability of Eu(sal)3(phen) is enhanced greatly through the introduction of the complex into silica matrix.

In order to study the thermal stability of PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) filter media, by means of thermogravimetry(TG), thermal degradation kinetics behavior of two kinds of PPS filter media were analyzed. The kinetic parameters of PPS filter media were obtained according to Flynn-Wall-Ozawa method. Thermal stability of PPS filter media was discussed. It was found that the initial decomposition temperature and activation energy of N3 sample are all higher than B1 sample, the thermal stability of N3 sample is better than B1 sample, and kinetic analysis can be used as an important method to evaluate the thermal stability of filter media.

Thermal degradation of polystyrene/ZnO (PS/ZnO) nanocomposites was investigated in this study. PS/ZnO polymer nanocomposites were prepared by using ZnO nanorods as nanofillers that were prepared via the sol-gel route. The as-prepared ZnO nanoparticles showed nanocrystallites in rod-like shapes with a non-uniform hexagonal cross-section and diameter varying from 40 to 75 nm. PS/ZnO nanocomposites with ZnO nanoparticles content ranging from 0–3 wt% are prepared via the common casting method. Even dispersion for ZnO nanoparticles within as-prepared PS/ZnO nanocomposites was verified through SEM/EDX measurements. Thermal degradation of the samples was checked by using the thermogravimetric (TG) analysis and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) under non-isothermal conditions and a constant heating rate of 10 °C min. The thermal stability of the nanocomposite is elevated compared to that of pristine PS due to the addition of the ZnO nanoparticles. The homogeneity of the PS/ZnO nanocomposites is verified by systematic increases in thermal degradation with increasing ZnO content. The characterization degradation temperatures at different weight loss percentages of ZnO nanoparticles increase at high ZnO wt%. Static activation energy of decomposing is based on TGA data. Activation energies showed some enhancement after the addition of ZnO nanorods into the PS matrix. Enhancing the thermal stability of PS with ZnO addition within the investigated ZnO concentration range is verified by TG, DSC results.

The kinetics of the thermal degradation and thermal stability of thermal conductive silicone rubber filled with Al2O3 and ZnO were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis in a flowing nitrogen atmosphere at a heating rate of 10°C/min. The rate parameters were evaluated by the method of Freeman–Carroll. The results show that the thermal degradation of silicone rubber begins at about 350°C and ends at about 600°C. The thermal degradation is multistage, in which zero-order reactions are principal. The kinetics of the thermal degradation of thermal conductive silicone rubber has relevance to its loading of thermal conductive filler. The activation energies are temperature-sensitive and their sensitivity to temperature becomes weak as temperature increases.

The objective of this work is to investigate the influence of LDH loading on the thermal stability and thermal degradation kinetics of the PP/Ni-Al LDH nanocomposites using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and to compare the results with that of the neat PP. For this, Ni-Al LDH was first prepared by co-precipitation method at constant pH using their nitrate salts and subsequently organically modified using sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) by regeneration method. A series of novel PP/Ni-Al LDH nanocomposites was then prepared with various amounts of LDH by melt intercalation method. The XRD results confirm the formation of exfoliated PP/LDH nanocomposites. PP/LDH nanocomposites exhibit enhanced thermal stability relative to the neat PP due to the presence of barrier effect of LDH lamellar layers and the thermal stability of the nanocomposites also increases with increase in the LDH loading. When 10% weight loss is selected as a point of comparison, the decomposition temperature of PP/LDH (5 wt %) nanocomposite is 15 oC higher than that of neat PP. The thermal degradation activation energy of the nanocomposites is determined via Coats-Redfern method and compared with that of neat PP. The improvement of thermal stability of PP nanocomposites is also confirmed by increasing the activation energies (Ea) and the integral procedural decomposition temperature (IPDT) compared with neat PP. Criado method is finally used to determine the degradation reaction mechanism of various samples.

Ordered-alpha titanium alloys having a DO19 type structure have good potential for high temperature (600°C) applications, due to the thermal stability of the ordered phase and the inherent resistance to recrystallization of these alloys. Five different Ti-Al-Ga alloys consisting of equal atomic percents of aluminum and gallium solute additions up to the stoichiometric composition, Ti3(Al, Ga), were used to study the growth kinetics of the ordered phase and the nature of its interface.The alloys were homogenized in the beta region in a vacuum of about 5×10-7 torr, furnace cooled; reheated in air to 50°C below the alpha transus for hot working. The alloys were subsequently acid cleaned, annealed in vacuo, and cold rolled to about. 050 inch prior to additional homogenization

Sn-doped TiO2 nanomaterials were synthesized by sol–gel method. It was shown the phase compositions and phase transitions change with the introduction of different tin amounts (0.5–20[Formula: see text]mol.%). X-ray powder diffraction was used to study the effect of different tin amounts on the anatase–rutile phase transition. It was found that the introduction of ions increases the thermal stability of anatase modifications. The material’s photocatalytic activity was studied in reaction with a model pollutant (methylene blue) photodegradation under UV and visible light activation. The best photocatalytic properties were shown for material, which contains 5[Formula: see text]mol.% of Sn.
