Hydrogenation of o-chloronitrobenzene to o-chloroaniline over Pd/C in supercritical carbon dioxide

Hydrogenation of o-chloronitrobenzene (o-CNB) to o-chloroaniline (o-CAN) with Pd/C has been investigated in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO(2)) at 308 K. The influences of several parameters such as CO2, H-2 pressures, Fd metal particle size and reaction time have been discussed. CO2 pressure presented markedly effects on the reaction rate and product selectivity under the reaction conditions used, the selectivity to o-CAN at CO2 pressure from 8 to 13 MPa (supercritical region) was larger than that at CO2 pressure below 6 MPa (subcritical region).

Study of beta-alpha recrystallization of the polypropylene

The crystalline modifications alpha and beta of polypropylene (PP) were studied by using polarized light microscopy (PLM), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Typically beta crystals surrounded by alpha spherulites were observed at low temperature. With increasing temperature the beta crystals melted and a new crystal appeared. More interestingly, the melting temperature of the new crystal was about 5degrees higher than that of alpha spherulites originally present in the sample formed isothermally. It was assumed that this new crystal was the recrystalline alpha crystal. This assumption was supported by the DSC results. Furthermore, the crystallization kinetics of the PP used was studied on the basis of the traditional Avrami analysis. As a result, the Avrami exponents of crystallization temperature from 120 to 130degreesC ranged between 4.21 and 3.60, indicating that the crystallization mechanism of PP order melt was spherulitic growth and random nucleation.

Probing the micellization of diblock and triblock copolymers of poly(L-lactide) and poly(ethylene glycol) in aqueous and NaCl salt solutions

The micelle formation of a series of amphiphilic block copolymers in aqueous and NaCl solutions was studied by a fluorescent probe technique using pyrene as a 'model drug'. These copolymers were synthesized from poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) and L-lactide by a new calcium ammoniate catalyst. They had fixed PEG block lengths (44, 104 or 113 ethylene oxide units) and various poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) block lengths (15-280 lactide units). The critical micelle concentration (cmc) was found to decrease with increasing PLLA content. The distinct dissimilarity of the cmc values of diblock and triblock copolymers based on the same block length of PEG provided evidence for the different configurations of their micelles. It was also observed that the introduction of NaCl salt significantly contributed to a decrease in the cmcs of the copolymers with short PEG and PLLA blocks, while it had less influence on the cmcs of copolymers with long PEG or PLLA blocks. The dependence of partition coefficients ranging from 0.2x10(5) to 1.9x10(5) on the PLLA content in the copolymer and on the micelle configuration was also discussed.

Microstructure and electrochemical performance of Ti0.17Zr0.08V0.34Pd0.01Cr0.1Ni0.3 electrode alloy

The microstructure and electrochemical performance of Ti0.17Zr0.08V0.34Pd0.01Cr0.1Ni0.3 electrode alloy have been investigated using X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The alloy electrode has a higher discharge capacity than an AB(5) type alloy within a wider temperature span. The increase of the charge-transfer-resistances, and the dissolutions of V and Zr were responsible for the performance degradation of the alloy electrode.

Ti_(0.17)Zr_(0.08)V_(0.34)Nb_(0.01)Cr_(0.1)Ni_(0.3)氢化物电极合金微观结构及电化学性能研究

采用XRD、FESEM-EDS、ICP及EIS等方法研究了Ti0.17Zr0.08V0.34Nb0.01Cr0.1Ni0.3氢化物电极合金微观结构和电化学性能。X射线衍射分析表明:该合金由体心立方结构(bcc)的V基固溶体主相和少量六方结构的C14型Laves相组成;FESEM及EDS分析表明:V基固溶体主相形成树枝晶,C14型Laves相呈网格状围绕着树枝晶的晶界,元素在两相中的分布呈现镜像关系。电化学性能测试结果表明:该合金的氢化物电极在303￣343K较宽的温度区间内,表现出较高的电化学容量,在303K和343K时,电化学容量分别为337.0mAh·g-1和327.9mAh·g-1。在303K循环100周后,容量为282.7mAh·g-1。ICP分析结果表明,氢化物电极在充放电循环过程中,V及Zr元素向KOH电解质中的溶出较为严重。EIS研究表明,金属氢化物电极表面电化学反应的电荷转移电阻(RT)随循环次数的增加而增加,相应的交换电流密度则随循环次数的增加而降低。氢化物电极循环过程中RT的增大以及V和Zr元素的溶解,可能是导致电极容量衰减的主要原因。

A polytetrafluoroethylene capillary viscometer

A polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE) capillary Ubbelohde viscometer was designed and constructed. The relative viscosities of aqueous solutions of a polyethylene oxide and a polyvinylpyrrolidone sample were carefully determined down to an extremely dilute concentration region. In comparison with the data obtained from the common glass capillary viscometer, slippage is believed to occur in the PTFE capillary due to its hydrophobic nature. While for the glass capillary viscometer, conventional viscous flow is operative and adsorption phenomena occur since both the solvent water and aqueous solution are wet and/or adsorbed onto the glass capillary surface due to the existence of hydroxyl groups on glass surface. The data were analyzed with a recently developed wall-effect theory and satisfactory results were obtained.

Preparation of poly(thionine) modified screen-printed carbon electrode and its application to determine NADH in flow injection analysis system

A poly(thionine) modified screen-printed carbon electrode has been prepared by an electrooxidative polymerization of thionine in neutral phosphate buffer. The modified electrodes are found to give stable and reproducible electrocatlytic responses to NADH and exhibit good stability. Several techniques, including cyclic voltammetry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), have been employed to characterize the poly(thionine) film. Further, the modified screen-printed carbon electrode was found to be promising as an amperometric detector for the flow injection analysis (FIA) of NADH, typically with a dynamic range of 5-100 muM.

Formation of ordered arrays of gold nanoparticles from CTAB reverse micelles

In this presentation, a reverse micelle technique was described to create colloid gold nanoparticles and their self-organization into superlattices. Gold nanoparticles were prepared by the reduction of HAuCL4 in CTAB/octane + 1-butanol/H2O reverse micelle system using NaBH4 as reducing agent. Dodecanethiol (C12H25SH) was used to passivate the gold nanoparticles immediately after formation of the gold colloid. After re-dispersing in toluene under ultrasonication, a supernatant containing nearly monodispersed dodecanethiol-capped gold nanoparticles was obtained. Self-organization of the gold nanoparticles into 1D, 2D and 3D superlattices was observed on the carbon-coated copper grid by TEM. UV-vis absorption spectra were also used to characterize the gold colloids with and without dodecanethiol capping. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Luminescence of unusual bismuth in barium berates BaB8O13 : Bi)

The luminescence of unusual divalent bismuth (Bi2+) in BaB8O13 is reported. The emission band with maximum peak at 592 nm corresponds to the P-2(3/2)-->P-2(1/2) transition of Bi2+ in the matrix and the excitation spectrum with two bands peaked at 470 and 580 nm respectively corresponds to two split crystal-field levels of P-2(3/2) state. The small Stokes shift (similar to 350 cm(-1)) reflects the rigid structure of the host for the Bi2+ ions.

Studies on uniaxially drawn poly(vinylidene fluoride) films

Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), under certain conditions, shows a crystal transition between the alpha (TGT (G) over bar) and beta (TTT) forms, where T, G, and (G) over bar, respectively, denote trans, gauche, and minus gauche. We investigated the mechanism of this crystal transition by FT-TR and X-ray diffraction, which yielded consistent results. We also carried out differential scanning calorimeter experiments.

Synthesis and characterization of (phenolphthalein/4,4 '-thiodiphenol) PES copolymers

Copolymers based on monomers phenolphthalein (PP)/4,4'-thiodiphenol (Bis-T)/4,4'-dichlorodiphenylsulfone (DCDPS) were prepared by a route involving the toluene, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and anhydrous potassium carbonate synthesis. The range of optimum reaction temperature was between 185 and 195 degrees C. The copolymers were characterized by C-13 NMR, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and torsion braid analysis. It was found that all of the copolymers were random and homogeneous and their glass transition temperatures (T-g) decreased linearly with an increase of Bis-T contents in the copolymers. The thermal stability determined by thermogravimetry analysis in air atmosphere indicated that the copolymer had better resistance to thermo-oxidative degradation. Dynamic mechanical measurement showed that (PP/Bis-T) PES copolymers containing 0-50 mol% of Bis-T components had two secondary relaxations. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
