Self-assembling gold nanoparticles on thiol-functionalized poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid) nanospheres for fabrication of a mediatorless biosensor

A novel strategy to construct a sensitive mediatorless sensor of H2O2 was described. At first, a cleaned gold electrode was immersed in thiol-functionalized poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid) (St-co-AA) nanosphere latex prepared by emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization St with AA and function with dithioglycol to assemble the nanospheres, then gold nanoparticles were chemisorbed onto the thiol groups and formed monolayers on the surface of poly(St-co-AA) nanospheres. Finally, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was immobilized on the surface of the gold nanoparticles. The sensor displayed an excellent electrocatalytical response to reduction of H2O2 without the aid of an electron mediator. The biosensor showed a linear range of 8.0 mu mol L-1-7.0 mmol L-1 with a detection limit of 4.0 mu mol L-1. The biosensor retained more than 97.8% of its original activity after 60 days' storage. Moreover, the studied biosensor exhibited good current reproducibility and good fabrication reproducibility.

Hydrazide-functionalized hollow porous poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) spheres for immobilization of enzyme

Hollow porous poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate)(HEMA-co-EDMA) spheres were prepared by emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization, swelling, seed emulsion polymerization and extraction. Then the spheres activated with 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine were functioned with adipohydrazide (AH). After periodate oxidation of its carbohydrate moieties, horseradish peroxidase was immobilized on the hydrazide-functionalized hollow porous poly(HEMA-co-EDMA) spheres. The amount of immobilized enzyme was up to 43.4 mu g of enzyme/g of support. Moreover, the immobilized horseradish peroxidase exhibited high activity and good stability.

Ring-opening polymerization and block copolymerization of L-lactide with divalent samarocene complex

Divalent samarocene complex [(C5H9C5H4)(2)Sm(tetrahydrofuran)(2)] was prepared and characterized and used to catalyze the ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide (L-LA) and copolymerization of L-LA with caprolactone (CL). Several factors affecting monomer conversion and molecular weight of polymer, such as polymerization time, temperature, monomer/catalyst ratio, and solvent, were examined. The results indicated that polymerization was rapid, with monomer conversions reaching 100% within 1 h, and the conformation of L-LA was retained. The structure of the block copolymer of CL/L-LA was characterized by NMR and differential scanning calorimetry. The morphological changes during crystallization of poly(caprolactone) (PCL)-b-P(L-LA) copolymer were monitored with real-time hot-stage atomic force microscopy (AFM). The effect of temperature on the morphological change and crystallization behavior of PCL-b-P(L-LA) copolymer was demonstrated through AFM observation.

Reactive compatibilization of polyamide 6 with isocyanate functionalized ethylene-propylene copolymer

Reactive compatibilization of ethylene-propylene copolymer functionalized with allyl (3-isocyanato-4-tolyl) carbamate (TAI) isocyanate (EPM-g-TAI) and polyamide 6 (PA6) was investigated in this paper, FTIR analysis revealed the evidence of a chemical reaction between the end groups of PA6 and EPM-g-TAI. Thermal, rheological, morphological, and mechanical properties of the resultant system were examined, DSC analysis indicated that the crystallization of PA6 in Pa6/EPM-g-TAI blends was inhibited, due to the chemical reaction that occurs at the interface of PA6 and EPM-g-TAI. Rheological measurement showed that complex viscosity and storage modulus of PA6/EPM-g-TAI were both dramatically enhanced compared to those of PA6/EPM at the same blending composition. After examining the morphology of both blending systems, smaller particile sizes, more homogeneous distribution of domains and improved interfacial adhesion between matrix and domains were observed in the compatibilized system. Mechanical properties such as tensile strength. Young's modulus, flexural strength and modulus, as well as notched and un-notched impact strength of PA6/EPM-g-TAI blends were also found to improve gradually with increasing the content of grafted TAI.

Functionalization of an ethylene-propylene copolymer with allyl (3-isocyanate-4-tolyl) carbamate

An ethylene-propylene copolymer (EPM) was functionalized with an iso cyanate-bearing unsaturated monomer, allyl(3-isocyanate-4-tolyl) carbamate (TAI), with dicumyl peroxide as an initiator in a xylene solution. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) was used to confirm the formation of EPM-g-TAI. The peak at 2273 cm(-1), characteristic of -NCO groups in EPM-g-TAI, revealed evidence of grafting. The grafting degree was determined with both chemical titration and FTIR. The grafting degree could be adjusted, and the maximum was over 6 wt % without any gelation. The molar mass distribution of EPM-g-TAI was narrower than that of EPM. The rheological behavior of both EPM-g-TAI and EPM was investigated with a rotational rheometer. The apparent viscosity of EPM-g-TAI was higher than that of EPM and increased with an increasing grafting degree of TAI. Surface analysis by contact-angle measurements showed that contact angles of EPM-g-TAI samples to a given polar liquid decreased with an increasing grafting degree of TAI. We also obtained the dispersion component of the surface free energy (gamma(S)(d)), the polar component of the surface free energy (gamma(S)(d)), and the total surface free energy (gamma(S) = gamma(S)(d) + gamma(S)(p)) of the grafted EPM. These parameters increased with the enhancement of the grafting degree, which gave us a quantitative estimation of the polar contribution of the grafted TAI to the total surface free energy of EPM-g-TAI.

Preparation of functionalized montmorillonites and their application in supported zirconocene catalysts for ethylene polymerization

Ethylene polymerization was carried out with zirconocene catalysts supported on montmorillonite (or functionalized montmorillonite). The functionalized montmorillonite was from simple ion exchange of [CH3O2CCH2NH3](+) (MeGlyH(+)) ions with interlamellar cations of layered montmorillonites. The functionalized montmorillonlites [high-purity montmorillonite (MMT)-MeGlyH(+)] had larger interlayer spacing (12.69 Angstrom) than montmorillonites without treatment (9.65 Angstrom). The zirconocene catalyst system [Cp2ZrCl2/methylaluminoxane (MAO)/MMT-MeGlyH(+)] had much higher Zr loading and higher activities than those of' other zirconocene catalyst systems (Cp2ZrCl2/MMT, Cp2ZrCl2/MMT-MeGlyH(+), Cp2ZrCl2/MAO/MMT, [CP2ZrCl](+)[BF4]/MMT, [Cp2ZrCl][BF4](-)/MMT-MeGlyH(+), [CP2ZrCl](+)[BF4](-)/MAO/MMT-MeGlyH(+), and [Cp2ZrCl](+)[BF4](-)/MAO/MMT). The polyethylenes with good bulk density were obtained from the catalyst systems, particularly (CP2ZrCl2/MAO/MMT-MeGlyH(1)). MeGlyH(+) and MAO seemed to play important roles for preparation of the supported zirconocenes and polymerization of ethylene. The difference in Zr loading and catalytic activity among the supported zirconocene catalysts is discussed.

Organic-phase enzyme electrode for phenolic determination based on a functionalized sol-gel composite

An amperometric biosensor for monitoring phenols in the organic phase was constructed by the silica sol-gel immobilization of tyrosinase on a glassy carbon electrode. The organic-inorganic hybrid materials with different sol-gel precursors and polymers were optimized, and the experimental conditions, such as the effect of the solvent, operational potential and enzyme loading were explored for the optimum analytical performance of the enzyme electrode. The biosensor can reach 95% of steady-state current in about 18 s, and the trend in the sensitivity of different phenols is as follows: catechol > phenol >p-cresol. In addition, the apparent Michaelis-Menten constants (K-m(app)) and the stability of the enzyme electrode were discussed. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
