SPring‐8 BL36XU: Synchrotron Radiation X‐Ray‐Based Multi‐Analytical Beamline for Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells under Operating Conditions

We designed and constructed a beamline BL36XU at the 8 GeV synchrotron radiation facility SPring‐8 to provide information required for the development of next‐generation polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) by clarifying the dynamic aspects of structures and electronic states of cathode catalysts under PEFC operating conditions and in the deterioration processes by accelerated durability test protcols. To investigate the mechanism and degradation process for the cathode electrocatalysis in practical PEFCs, we developed advanced time‐ and spatially‐resolved in‐situ/operando X‐ray absorption fine structure measurement systems and complementary analytical systems (X‐ray emission spectroscopy (XES), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), X‐ray computer tomography (CT) and hard X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES)) and combined them to develop multi‐analytical systems at BL36XU. Multi‐analytical systems are very powerful for observing spatial‐temporal features of the transient processes occurring in complex systems such as PEFCs. This account describes the design, performance, and research results of the BL36XU and multi‐analytical in‐situ/operando systems.     

The use of acridine orange base (AOB) as molecular probe to characterize nonaqueous AOT reverse micelles

The behavior of acridine orange base (AOB) in nonaqueous reverse micelles composed of n-heptane/AOT/polar solvent has been performed. Ethylene glycol (EG), propylene glycol (PG), glycerol (GY), formamide (FA), dimethylformamide (DMF), and dimethylacetamide (DMA) were employed as water substitutes. The studies were performed by static and time-resolved emission spectroscopy. Thus, the distribution of AOB between the two pseudophases of the aggregates was quantified by measuring the partition constants from emission spectra at different surfactant concentration. Similar values to those obtained by means of absorption spectroscopy were obtained. This match is indicating that AOB is not experiencing partition during the lifetime of the excited state. Partitioning to the micelles is strongly favored in micelles containing hydrogen-bond donor (HBD) solvents rather than non-HBD solvents. Variations of fluorescence lifetimes with AOT concentration confirm these results. By the solvatochromic behavior of AOB in the different systems it is shown that the microenvironment at the interface is distinct from that of the bulk polar solvent, indicating that the probe senses no "free" solvent. The steady state anisotropy (r) was measured for EG/AOT/n-heptane and DMF/AOT/n-heptane systems as representatives for HBD and non-HBD polar solvents, respectively. The value of r is higher in the micelles containing EG than that obtained with DMF, and increases with AOT concentration. This is explained as due to highly structured polar solvents in the inner core. EG is interacting with the polar heads of AOT through hydrogen-bond interaction, while DMF can only interact with the Na+ counterions. This is confirmed by the time-resolved emission spectra (TRES) of the probe in the micellar systems, in comparison with the bulk solvents.     

Thermal and spectroscopy studies on ternary miscibility and phase behavior in blends comprising poly(4‐vinyl phenol) and two aryl polyesters

Thermal analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy characterizations were performed on three ternary blend systems that comprise poly(4‐vinyl phenol) (PVPh) and any two of the three homologous aryl polyesters [poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT), and poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT)]. Although PVPh is miscible with any one of the polyesters in forming a binary blend system, miscibility in ternary systems by introducing one more polymer of different structures to the blend system is not always expected. However, this study concludes that miscibility does exist in all these three ternary blends of all compositions investigated. Reasons and factors for such behavior were probed. Quantitative interactions in the ternary blend system were also estimated. The overall interaction energy density (B) by analysis of melting point depression for the PBT/PVPh/PET ternary blend system led to a negative value (B = −5.74 cal/cm³). Similarly, T_g‐composition analyses were performed on two other ternary blend systems, PET/PVPh/PTT and PTT/PVPh/PBT. Comparison of the qualitative results showed that the interaction energy densities in the other two ternary blend systems are similarly negative and comparable to the PBT/PVPh/PET ternary blend system. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results also support the qualitative findings among these three ternary blend systems. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Recognition behavior of chiral nanocomposites toward biomolecules and its application in electrochemical immunoassay

The novel nanocomposites were obtained by covalently linking arginine enantiomers with the sidewall of multi-walled carbon nanotubes, and utilized as sensing materials for biomolecular recognition in electrochemical immunoassay. They were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and circular dichroism spectroscopy (CD). Nano-gold and Prussian Blue were employed to amplify the analytical signal responses. Prostate specific antibody/antigen and carcinoembryonic antibody/antigen were used as model systems. The results showed that the different configurations of nanocomposites could readily facilitate chiral recognition of antibodies, and D-nanocomposites displayed a larger signal.     

Self‐Sorting of Four Organic Molecules into a Heterowheel Polypseudorotaxane

The social self‐sorting supramolecular assembly is described by non‐covalent interactions among four organic components. Toward this goal, a series of self‐sorting systems have been investigated by mixing two or three different compounds; naphthyl‐bridged bis(α‐cyclodextrin), N,N′‐dioctyl‐4,4′‐bipyridinium, 2,6‐dihydroxynaphthalene, and cucurbit[8]uril. The influence of alkyl chains of viologen derivatives and the binding abilities of these systems have also been studied. Their integrative self‐sorting led to the exclusive formation of the purple supramolecular heterowheel polypseudorotaxane. The heterowheel polypseudorotaxane is a thermodynamically stable self‐sorted product, and consists of two different macrocycles with three sorts of different non‐covalent interactions. Its structure was established by NMR spectroscopy and UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), dynamic light‐scattering (DLS), diffusion‐ordered spectroscopy (DOSY), and viscosity measurements.     

Metal content determination in polymerization catalysts by direct methods

Metal contents in polymerization catalysts were comparatively determined by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy. Catalysts were prepared by grafting metallocene onto bare silica or onto silica chemically modified with methylaluminoxane (MAO). Catalysts were compressed as self-supporting pellets (RBS and XRF), or mounted on adhesive copper tape (XPS). The proximity of the mass of the atomic nuclei did not allow resolution by RBS of the signals corresponding to Zr and Nb, nor Si and Al in catalyst systems such as (nBuCp)₂ZrCl₂/Cp₂NbCl₂/MAO/SiO₂. On the other hand, Zr, Nb, Si and Al lines were completely resolved in an XRF spectrum. For supported metallocenes on bare silica, XPS measurement was ca. 40% higher than that obtained by RBS. Silica-supported zirconocene showed good agreement in Zr content determination by XRF and RBS.     

Mononuclear-dinuclear equilibrium of grafted copper complexes confined in the nanochannels of MCM-41 silica

Following the structural concept of copper-containing proteins in which dinuclear copper centers are connected by hydroxide bridging ligands, a bidentate copper(II) complex has been incorporated into nano-confined MCM-41 silica by a multistep sequential grafting technique. Characterization by a combination of EPR spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV/Vis spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy , and solid-state (13)C and (29)Si cross-polarization magic-angle spinning (CP-MAS) NMR suggests that dinuclear Cu complexes are bridged by hydroxide and other counterions (chloride or perchlorate ions), similar to the situation for EPR-undetectable [Cu(II)···Cu(II)] dimer analogues in biological systems. More importantly, a dynamic mononuclear-dinuclear equilibrium between different coordination modes of copper is observed, which strongly depends on the nature of the counterions (Cl(-) or ClO(4)(-)) in the copper precursor and the pore size of the silica matrix (the so-called confinement effect). A proton-transfer mechanism within the hydrogen-bonding network is suggested to explain the dynamic nature of the dinuclear copper complex supported on the MCM-41 silica.     

FTIR spectroscopy coupled with multivariate classification methods to identify different powdered infant formulas adulterated with melamine and cyanuric acid

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) is a nondestructive, simple, rapid, and cheap measurement technique for analysis of many multicomponent chemical systems, e.g., detection of adulterants in food samples. In this respect, this study proposes combining FTIR spectroscopy with multivariate classification methods for classification and discrimination of different samples of infant formulas adulterated by melamine or/and cyanuric acid. Different parametric and non-parametric multivariate classification methods including the linear discriminant analysis (LDA), partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), soft independent modeling of class analogy (SIMCA), K-nearest neighbors (KNN), and classification and regression tree (CART) approaches were used to classify the recorded FTIR data. Assessing the performance of the multivariate methods according to their sensitivity, specificity and percent of correct prediction results demonstrated that coupling FTIR spectroscopy with multivariate classification can be applied as a rapid and powerful technique to the simultaneous detection of melamine and cyanuric acid in powdered infant formulas. This combinatorial method is efficient for adulterant concentrations as low as 0.0001 w/w%.     

Physico-chemical study of selected surfactant-clay mineral systems

A physicochemical study of the systems formed by the clay minerals, montmorillonite and kaolinite (layered) and sepiolite (non-layered) and the surfactants Triton X-100 (TX100, non-ionic), dodecyl sodium sulfate (SDS, anionic) and trimethyloctadecyl-ammonium bromide (ODTMA, cationic), with different chemical structure, was carried out by X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA). TG/DTA results indicated an increase in the thermal stabilization of non-ionic (TX100) and cationic (ODTMA) surfactants adsorbed by all clay minerals in relation to pure compounds. This effect was greater in montmorillonite and sepiolite than in kaolinite owing to these minerals must allow the establishment of a stronger bond with the surfactants as indicated by XRD and FTIR results. Differences in decomposition of anionic surfactant SDS are not emphasized due to the low adsorbed amount of this surfactant by all systems. The results obtained indicate the interest of taking into account the structure of surfactant and the clay mineral type when preparing customized surfactant-clay mineral systems which contribute to establish more efficient soil and water remediation strategies based in the use of these systems.
