Xylan is a major type of hemicellulose that has attracted a lot of research and development activities. It is often derivatized in order to improve its properties. In the literature, hydrophobic modification of polymers is often used to produce surfactant-like materials and associative thickeners. In this work, we have derivatized xylan with alkyl ketene dimer (AKD) and two types of alkenyl succinic anhydrides (ASAs). The xylan-AKD derivatives have been made at 90 °C, using dimethyl sulfoxide as solvent and 4-dimethylaminopyridine as promoter. Samples with degrees of substitution (DS) up to 0.006 have been produced. The xylan-ASA derivatives have been synthesized at 120 °C in dimethyl sulfoxide with DS up to 0.105–0.135. The structures of these products have been confirmed with NMR and FT-IR. These xylan derivatives increase the structural diversity of xylan and provide additional options for people seeking to use hydrophobically modified polysaccharides in their applications.

The HMG GG-C14 was prepared by pre-swelling guar gum hydrophobic modification in alcohol-aqueous solution, the optical reactive condition was determined by studying the respective influence of each condition on the performance of the resultant product, and the final product possessed an apparent viscosity of 19957mPa·s (the apparent viscosity of parent guar gum is 11764mPa·s) and a substituting degree of 0.93%. The Ft-IR spectra of GG and GG-C14 indicate the hydrophobic long chain alkyl was successfully grafted onto guar gum.

Zirconia-graphene composite (ZrO2-G) has been successfully synthesized via decomposition of ZrOCl2•6H2O in a water-isopropanol system with dispersed graphene oxide (GO) utilizing Na2S as a precursor could enable the occurrence of the deposition of Zr4+ and the deoxygenation of GO at the same time. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques were used to characterize the samples. It was found that graphene were fully coated with ZrO2, and the ZrO2 existing in tetragonal phase, which resulted in the formation of two-dimensional composite.

Copolymers based on 1, 4-diethoxybenzene (DEB) and 3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) were electrochemically synthesized and characterized. The structures of the copolymers were established by 1H NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. The results indicated the final product was a copolymer instead of a blend or a composite. The physical properties were systematically investigated by cyclic voltammetry, UV-vis absorption and fluorescence. The PL maximum of copolymers presented obviously red-shift to long wavelength as the feed ratio of EDOT in monomer mixture increased.

In this paper, some chalcone derivatives (C1, C2) were synthesized based on the reaction of equal amount of substituted acetophenone and substituted banzaldehyde in basic medium. Oxazine and thiazine derivatives were prepared from the reaction of chalcones (C1-C2) with urea and thiourea respectively in a basic medium. Pyrazole derivatives were prepared based on the reaction of chalcones with hydrazine mono hydrate or phenyl hydrazine in the presence of glacial acetic acid as a catalyst. The new synthesized compounds were identified using various physical techniques like1 H-NMR and FT-IR spectra.

Various of 2,5- disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole (Schiff base, ?- lactam and azo) were synthesized from 2,5-di (4,4?-amino-1,3,4-oxadiazole which usequently synth-esized from mixture of 4- amino benzoic acid and hydrazine arch of polyphosphorus acid. The synthesized compounds were cherecterized by using some spectral data (UV, FT-IR , and 1H-NMR)

The biomineral-binding alendronate-chitosan conjugate (Scheme 1) was developed as a novel drug delivery system. Alendronate was conjugated to the hydroxyl groups of chitosan, thereby maintaining the amino groups of chitosan intact. By means of FT-IR and 1H NMR, the characterization was conducted to confirm the successful synthesis of alendronate-chitosan conjugate.

The new series of 1-(4,5-dihydro-5-phenyl-3-diphenylpyrazol-1-yl)butan-1-one derivatives were synthesized by cyclization method using biphenyl chalcone with n-butyric acid and hydrazine hydrate. The synthesized 1-(4,5-dihydro-5-phenyl-3-diphenylpyrazol-1-yl)butan-1-one derivatives chemical structures were confirmed from spectral data such as FT-IR, 1H and 13C NMR. 2-Pyrazoline derivatives were docked with bacterial (1UAG) and breast cancer (1OQA) protein. Based on high binding affinity score, the best compound was subjected to in vitro anticancer activity by MTT assay. Also, antimicrobial activity were studied for synthesized 2-pyrazoline derivatives.

In this paper, Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was used in the activating process of cotton filter cloth to improve its further hydrophobic modification reaction between cotton fabric and 1-octadecene via an electron transfer (ARGET) atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) mechanism. The major influences of DMSO on ARGET-ATRP process was discussed, and meanwhile, the microstructure changes, morphology feature and performance characteristics of cotton filter cloth during the reaction was explored by the SEM, AFM, EDS, XRD and TGA techniques.The result shows that DMSO can leads to cotton fibers adhesion and surface roughening under the ARGET-ATRP grafting reaction conditions, but has little changes on the crystal form, crystallinity and thermal properties of cellulose. At a DMSO dosage of 10%, the hydrophobically modified cotton filter cloth has a water contact angle (CA) of up to 141°. While naturally placed for 1 hour, the CA of hydrophobically modified cotton filter cloth can be stable at 116° with a decay rate of 17.5%, which proves that the hydrophobic stability of cotton filter cloth has been improved markedly. Furthermore, a better improvement for the hydrophobic stability of cotton filter cloth will significantly enhance the application of hydrophobic functional modified cellulosic materials.

AbstractIn this work, synthesis and characterization of composite materials based on NanoClay(NC) and boric acid doped PolyAniline (PANI) is studied. PANI was successfully incorporated into NC to form PANI-NC composites. The resulting organic-inorganic hybrid material, PANI-NC was characterized by various physicochemical techniques. Formation of PANI inside the clay tactoid has been confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and FT-IR. Also, conductivity and physical properties of the PANI-NC composites were investigated.
