Template Methods

Polyimide based hollow composites were successfully prepared by combining the situ and template methods together. Firstly, the complete words (PPy) shell was covered on the surface of polystyrene nanoparticles, then the polyamide acid and PdCl2 were covered on the surface of the materials after the calcination. Finally, PI@ PPy/Pd hollow composites were obtained by a chemical process. The structure and composition of composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy X-ray diffraction, thermo gravimetric analyzer and differential scanning calorimeter, respectively. Palladium (Pd) nanoparticles were densely and uniformly anchored on the surface of PPy shell due to the coordination interaction between amino groups on PPy backbone and Pd2+ ions. They are ideal candidates as nanoreactors for heterogeneous catalysis due to their special structure. The catalytic performance of PI@ PPy/Pd hollow composites were studied by the reduction of NaBH4 as a reducing agent. The catalytic performance of composites was characterized by ultraviolet and visible spectrophotometer. The PI@PPy/Pd composites showed excellent catalytic performance in the reduction of methylene blue with sodium borohydride as reducing agent. The dye completely turned colorless as seen within 2.0 minutes.

Ch4 Uptake

As promising material for gas storage applications, MIL-101(Cr) can further be modified by doping with alkali metal (Li+, Na+, K+) ions. However, the doping concentration should be optimized below 10% to improve the methane adsorption. This article presents (i) the synthesis of MIL-101 (Cr) Metal Organic Frameworks, (ii) the characterization of the proposed doped adsorbent materials by X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, N2 Adsorption, Thermo-Gravimetric Analyzer, and (iii) the measurements of methane uptakes for the temperatures ranging from 125 K to 303 K and pressures up to 10 bar. It is found that the Na+ doped MIL-101(Cr) exhibits CH4 uptake capacity of (i) 295 cm3/cm3 at 10 bar and 160 K and (ii) 95 cm3/cm3 at 10 bar at 298 K. This information is important to design adsorbed natural gas (ANG) storage tank under ANG-LNG (liquefied natural gas) coupling conditions.

The Magnesium hydroxide sulfate hydrate whiskers (5Mg(OH)2.MgSO4.3H2O, abbreviated 513MHSH) have attracted much attention due to its practical applications as filler and reinforcement. However, it is difficult to produce high quality MHSH because plate-like Mg(OH)2 impurities were formed in high concentrations of OH- and interaction between Mg2+ and OH-. In this work, to reduce formation Mg(OH)2, molar ratio ofSuperscript text magnesium oxide (MgO) and magnesium sulfate (MgSO4.7H2O) were controlled. As a result, when low concentration of SO42-, MHSH whiskers co-existed with hexagonal plate Mg(OH)2. The molar ratio of MgSO4.7H2O/MgO was high, uniform MHSH whiskers were formed without Mg(OH)2. In addition, appropriate amount of NH4OH has affected formation of high quality MHSH. Their morphologies and structures were determined by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermo-gravimetric analyzer (TGA)

AbstractA series of tetracarboxylphthalocyanines (MPc(COOH)4, M = H, Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II)) were anchored onto MCM-41 by the following procedures: functionalization of MCM-41 with (EtO)3SiCH2CH2CH2NH2 reacting with surface Si-OH, and anchoring MPc(COOH)4 onto MCM-41 with a substitution reaction between chloroformyl and amino groups. The samples were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, N2 adsorption-desorption, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Catalytic activity of oxidation was tested using solutions of ethanethiol in petroleum ether and thiophene in octane; CoPc-CONH-MCM-41 displayed the highest conversion ratio of 90.15 % and 93.79 %, respectively.

AbstractAnalogue sinter tablets were produced at temperatures between 1250°C and 1320°C, with a range of hold times and cooling rates. Platy silico-ferrite of calcium and aluminum (SFCA) morphology was identified in samples produced at 1250°C using reflected light microscopy; however, quantitative x-ray diffraction (XRD) identified the presence of the SFCA phase, with no SFCA-I detected. This proves that the platy SFCA morphology common in analysis by reflected light microscopy cannot be attributed to the SFCA-I mineral without further analysis. Micro-XRD and electron probe micro-analysis (EPMA) were carried out on an area of platy SFCA confirming this result. The sinter analogue tablets were reduced in a 30% CO, 70% N2 gas mixture at 900°C in a tube furnace thermo-gravimetric analyzer. The degree of reduction of the tablets in this study was found to be controlled by the porosity of the samples, rather than by the morphology or mineralogy of the bonding phase.

Regenerated Cellulose Film

This article reports dissolution, regeneration, and characterization of cellulose using an ionic liquid, namely 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (BMIMCl). During dissolving process, BMIMCl takes much less time to dissolve cellulose with high degree of polymerization (DP = 4500) than other solvent system, lithium chloride/ N,N-dimethylacetamide (LiCl/DMAc). Regenerated cellulose film from BMIMCl–cellulose solution is characterized by viscosity, thermo gravimetric analyzer, X-ray diffraction, pull test, and transmittance test. Compared with LiCl/DMAc–cellulose, BMIMCl–cellulose solution has lower viscosity and its film has lower Young's modulus and yield strength. From thermo gravimetric analyzer and X-ray diffraction experiment, BMIMCl–cellulose film has impurity and X-ray diffraction pattern similar with those of LiCl/DMAc–cellulose film. BMIMCl–cellulose film exhibits higher transmittance. The ionic liquid recovery test verifies that BMIMCl is highly recoverable with 99%, which proves that BMIMCl is a green solvent. Through the bending displacement test, the BMIMCl–cellulose film shows a good actuation behavior of electro-active paper.

The axially chiral bis(α-amino acid)s cis-2 and trans-2 as possible building blocks for polymeric structures of novel type of helicity were prepared. Their configuration has been determined by NMR spectroscopy and, in the case of the trans-isomer, confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Analogous pair of stereoisomeric diacids cis-3 and trans-3, devoid of the amino groups, was also prepared and their configuration assigned. The observed differences in the NMR spectra of cis- and trans-isomers of 2 and 3 are discussed from the viewpoint of their different symmetry properties.

Towards the utilization of Cu2O nanomaterial for the degradation of industrial dye pollutants such as methylene blue and methyl orange, the graphene-incorporated Cu2O nanocomposites (GCC) were developed via a precipitation method. Using Hummers method, the grapheme oxide (GO) was initially synthesized. The varying weight percentages (1–4 wt %) of GO was incorporated along with the precipitation of Cu2O catalyst. Various characterization techniques such as Fourier-transform infra-red (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV–visible diffused reflectance (UV-DRS), Raman spectroscopy, thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), and electro chemical impedance (EIS) were followed for characterization. The cabbage-like morphology of the developed Cu2O and its composites were ascertained from field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). In addition, the growth mechanism was also proposed. The results infer that 2 wt % GO-incorporated Cu2O composites shows the highest value of degradation efficiency (97.9% and 96.1%) for MB and MO at 160 and 220 min, respectively. Further, its catalytic performance over visible region (red shift) was also enhanced to an appreciable extent, when compared with that of other samples.

Bromohydrination of benzyl (1RS,2SR,4SR)-2-benzyloxycarbonylamino-1-trimethylsilyloxy-bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene-2-carboxylate (6a) and the (1RS,2RS,4SR)- diastereomer (6b) with N- bromoacetamide in aqueous dioxan has been investigated. These reactions are highly regio-and stereo-selective and give the corresponding bromohydrins (9a) and (9b), but in moderate to low yield. These bromohydrins have the necessary stereochemistry for conversion into anticapsin. The other products from the reaction are tricyclic compounds formed by capture of the anti- bromonium cation intermediates or resultant bromohydrins by interaction with the proximal protected carboxy and amino groups within the molecules. Thus the carbolactone (11) is formed from the endo -adduct (6a), and the carbonimidic acid derivative (12) and the cyclic urethane (13) are formed from the exo-adduct (6b). Cleavage of the trimethylsilyl group from the tricyclic compound (12) gives benzyl (1RS,2RS,3RS,7RS,8RS)-5-benzyloxy-2-bromo-8-hydroxy-4-oxa-6-azatricyclo[5.3.1.03,8]undec-5-ene-7-carboxylate(14), the structure of which was determined by X-ray diffraction methods and refined to a residual of 0.035 for 1549 independent observed reflections. The crystals of (14) are monoclinic, P21/c, a 12.954(3), b 6.197(3), c 26.784(7) Ǻ, β 95.33(2)°, Z 4. Reactions attempting to generate iodohydrins from the alkenes (6) were also highly regioselective and gave detrimethylsilylated iodo analogues of (11) and (13).

Background: Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a common reagent in the production and living, but excessive H2O2 may enhance the danger to the human body. Consequently, it is very important to develop economical, fast and accurate techniques for detecting H2O2. Methods: A simple two-step electrodeposition process was applied to synthesize Pd-Cu/Cu2O nanocomposite for non-enzymatic H2O2 sensor. Cu/Cu2O nanomaterial was firstly electrodeposited on FTO by potential oscillation technique, and then Pd nanoparticles were electrodeposited on Cu/Cu2O nanomaterial by cyclic voltammetry. The chemical structure, component, and morphology of the synthesized Pd-Cu/Cu2O nanocomposite were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The electrochemical properties of Pd-Cu/Cu2O nanocomposite were studied by cyclic voltammetry and amperometry. Results: Under optimal conditions, the as-fabricated sensor displayed a broad linear range (5-4000 µM) and low detection limit (1.8 µM) for the determination of H2O2. The proposed sensor showed good selectivity and reproducibility. Meanwhile, the proposed sensor has been successfully applied to detect H2O2 in milk. Conclusion: The Pd-Cu/Cu2O/FTO biosensor exhibits excellent electrochemical activity for H2O2 reduction, which has great potential application in the field of food safety.
