Effect of addition of Zn on the catalytic activity of a Co/HZSM-5 catalyst for the SCR of NOx with CH4

The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx by methane in the presence of excess oxygen was studied on a Zn-Co/HZSM-5 catalyst. It was found that the addition of Zn could improve effectively the selectivity of methane towards NOx reduction. When prepared by a coimpregnation method, the Zn-Co/HZSM-5 catalyst showed much higher catalytic activity than the two catalysts of a Zn/Co/HZSM-5 and Co/Zn/HZSM-5 prepared by the successive impregnation method. It is considered that there exists a cooperative effect among the Zn, Co and zeolite, which enhances the reduction of NO to NO2 reaction and the activation of methane. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Determination of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone-labeled carbohydrates by liquid chromatography and micellar electrokinetic chromatography

In this paper, the method for the derivatization of carbohydrates with 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone (PMP) was simplified. One-third of the derivatization time was saved. Five monosaccharide derivatives have been well separated by MEKC and HPLC under optimized conditions. Good reproducibility could be obtained with relative standard deviation (RSD) values of the migration times within 5.0 and 2.3%, respectively. Furthermore, the developed methods have been successfully applied to the analysis of carbohydrates in Aloe powder and food. These methods are quite useful for routine analysis of monosaccharides and oligosaccharides in real samples. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Direct decomposition of NO by microwave heating over Fe/NaZSM-5

Catalytic decomposition of NO was studied over Fe/NaZSM-5 catalyst. Novel results were observed with the microwave heating mode. The conversion of NO to N-2 increased remarkably with the increasing of Fe loading. The effects of a series of reaction parameters, including reaction temperature, O-2 concentration, NO concentration, gas flow rate and H2O addition, on the productivity of N-2 have been investigated. It is shown that the catalyst exhibited good endurance to excess O-2 in the microwave heating mode. Under all reaction conditions, NO converted predominantly to N-2. The highest conversion of NO to N-2 was up to 70%. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The influence of variant PE-b-PEO segments on physical properties of LLDPE graft copolymers

A method was adopted to fix a series of polymers of PE-b-PEO with different PEO/PE segments on the chains of LLDPE. Maleic anhydride (MA) reacting with hydroxyl group of PE-b-PEO (mPE-b-PEO) was used as the intermediate. The structures of intermediates and graft copolymers were approved by H-1 NMR and FTIR. XPS analysis revealed a great amount of oxygen on the surface of grafted copolymers although the end group of PEO was fixed on the LLDPE chains through MA. Thermal properties of the graft copolymers as determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) showed that PE segments in the grafted monomers could promote the heterogeneous nucleation of the polymer, increase T., and crystal growth rate.

Molecular weight dependence of phase Behavior of PEO/P(EO-b-DMS) blends: Application of Sanchez-Lacombe lattice fluid theory

Molecular weight dependence of phase separation behavior of the Poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO)/Poly(ethylene oxide-block-dimethylsiloxane) (P(EO-b-DMS)) blends was investigated by both experimental and theoretical methods. The cloud point curves of PEO/P(EO-b-DMS) blends were obtained by turbidity method. Based on Sanchez-Lacombe lattice fluid theory (SLLFT), the adjustable parameter, epsilon*(12)/k (quantifying the interaction energy between different components), was evaluated by fitting the experimental data in phase diagrams. To calculate the spinodals, binodals, and the volume changes of mixing for these blends, three modified combining rules of the scaling parameters for the block copolymer were introduced.

Assembly of 12-tungstosilicic acid and 4-aminobenzo-15-crown-5 ether based on the electrostatic attraction through bridging of oxonium ions on different substrates

Based on the electrostatic attraction Keggin-type polyoxometalate H4SiW12O40 (SiW12) and small molecule 4-aminobenzo-15-crown-5 ether (4-AB15C5) were alternately deposited on poly (allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH)-derived indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate through a layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly, forming a supramolecular multilayer film (film-A). SiW12 was also deposited on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) derived by 4-AB15C5 via covalent bonding in 0.1 M NaCl aqueous solution and formed a composite monolayer film (film-B). UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy measurements demonstrated that the interactions between SiW12 and 4-AB15C5 in both two film electrodes were the same and caused by the bridging action of oxonium ions. But, the nanostructure in the two film electrodes was different. 4-AB15C5 in film-A was oriented horizontally to ITO substrate, however, that in film-B was oriented vertically to GCE. Namely film-A corresponded to a layer structure, and film-B corresponded to an intercalation structure.

Triblock poly(lactic acid)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(lactic acid)/paclitaxel conjugates: Synthesis, micellization, and cytotoxicity

A triblock poly(lactic acid)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(lactic acid) (PLA-PEG-PLA)/paclitaxel (PTX) conjugate was synthesized by the reaction of carboxyl-terminated copolymer PLA-PEG-PLA with PTX in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and dimethylaminopyridine. Carboxyl-terminated copolymer PLA-PEG-PLA was prepared by the reaction of the hydroxyl end groups in copolymer PLA-PEG-PLA with succinic anhydride. Its structure was confirmed by NMR and gel permeation chromatography. The PLA-PEG-PLA/PTX conjugates could self-assemble into micelles in aqueous solutions with a low critical micelle concentration. Dynamic light scattering and environmental scanning electron microscopy analyses of the PLA-PEG-PLA/PTX micelles revealed their spherical structure and size of 220 nm. The antitumor activity of the conjugate against woman Hela cancer cells, evaluated by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide method, showed that the conjugates had an antitumor activity similar to that of pure PTX. The obtained PLA-PEG-PLA/PTX conjugates are expected to be used in clinical practice.

Synthesis and crystallization behaviors of poly(styrene-b-isoprene-b-epsilon-caprolactone) triblock copolymers

The triblock copolymers, poly(styrene-b-isoprene-b-epsilon-caprolactone)s (PS-b-PI-b-PCL) have been synthesized successfully by combination of anionic polymerization and ring-opening polymerization. Diblock copolymer capped with hydroxyl group, PS-b-PI-OH was synthesized by sequential- anionic polymerization of styrene and isoprene and following end-capping reaction of EO, and then it was used as macro initiator in the ring-opening polymerization of CL. The results of DSC and WAXD show big effect of amorphous PS-b-PI on the thermal behaviors of PCL block in the triblock copolymers and the lower degree of crystalline in the triblock copolymer with higher molecular weight of PS-b-PI was observed. The real-time observation on the polarized optical microscopy shows the spherulite growth rates of PCL27, PCL328 and PS-b-PI-b-PCL344 are 0.71, 0.46 and 0.07 mu m s(-1), respectively. The atomic force microscopy (AFM) images of the PS90-b-PI66-b-PCL-(28) show the columns morphology formed by it's self-assembling.

The study of synthesis of poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide) by atom transfer radical polymerization and self-assembly in selective solvents

Poly( ethylene oxide)-b-poly(N, N-dimethylacrylamide) (PEO-b-PDMA) was synthesized by successive atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of N, N-dimethylacrylamide (DMA) monomer using PEO-Br macro initiators as initiator, CuBr and 5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazamacrocyclotetra decane (Me-6[14] aneN(4)) as catalyst and ligand. PEO-Br macroinitiator was synthesized by esterification of PEO with 2-bromoisobutyryl bromide. GPC and H-1 NMR studies show that the plot of ln([DMA](0)/[ DMA]) against the reaction time is linear, and the molecular weight of the resulting PDMA increased linearly with the conversion. Within 3 h, the polymerization can reach almost 60% of conversion. PEO-b-PDMA copolymer with low polydispersity index (M-w/M-n approximate to 1.1) is obtained. Self-assembly of PEO-b-PDMA in selective solvents is also studied. It could self-assemble into micelles in methanol/acetone (1/10, v/v) solution. TEM analyses of the PEO-b-PDMA micelles with narrow size distribution revealed that their size and shape depend much on the copolymer composition.
