POSS基杂化含氟丙烯酸酯共聚物涂膜的表面相分离与疏水性研究

采用自由基溶液聚合法成功合成了多面体低聚倍半硅氧烷(POSS)基杂化含氟丙烯酸酯共聚物,并采用核磁共振仪(NMR)和凝胶渗透色谱仪(GPC)表征了共聚物,其中POSS和含氟单体分步加入到反应中.首先将共聚物溶解到三氟三氯乙烷(F113)和乙酸乙酯的混合溶剂中配制成溶液,然后通过直接在玻璃片上滴落共聚物溶液制备了共聚物涂膜.采用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、X-射线光电子能谱(XPS)、原子力显微镜(AFM)和接触角测量仪考察了F113和乙酸乙酯的配比对共聚物涂膜表面形貌、表面元素组成、表面粗糙度以及表面疏水性的影响.实验数据表明POSS在表面能够聚集成纳米颗粒并能极大增强涂膜表面粗糙度和疏水性.共聚物表面同时存在POSS聚集与有机相微相分离两类相分离行为,并形成了复合粗糙结构.虽然POSS和含氟段竞争迁移到表面,但是随着混合溶剂中F113的增多,涂膜表面含氟量越来越多,同时POSS在表面的聚集体越来越少,表面平均粗糙度越来越小,最终涂膜的疏水性越来越强,这说明F113有助于提升氟的趋表迁移能力,使涂膜表面含氟链段占据较多的表面空间,从而抑制了POSS在表面聚集分布.当使用纯F113作为溶剂时,共聚物涂膜的表面氟含量为45.25%,平均粗糙度为93.4 nm,此时静态水接触角最大为135.0?,表现出优异的疏水性.

The surface properties of 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetraazacyclooctane after partial solution in nitro esters

The thermophysical properties and surface structure of 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetraazacyclooctane (TNCO) particles before and after their contact with liquid nitro esters were studied by differential scanning calorimetry and small-angle X-ray scattering. The thermophysical properties of TNCO changed after contact with nitro esters, and the temperature range of the transition from the β to δ polymorph broadened. This peculiarity was explained in terms of the fracton theory by changes in the heat capacity of particles related to the formation of nanoscale roughness with a fractal (scale-invariant) organization as a result of surface etching by solvents such as nitro esters, which are thermodynamically “bad” with respect to TNCO. The volume properties of particles did not change. The possibility of determining the fractal dimension of the surface of TNCO particles by differential scanning calorimetry was demonstrated. The rate of heating was then used as a “scale ruler” (“yardstick”), and the temperature range of the transition from the β to δ polymorph, as a measured parameter. The dimension of the surface fractal was also determined by an independent method (small-angle X-ray scattering). The results obtained by the two methods were closely similar.     

Menger sponge-like fractal body created by a novel template method

We have established experimental strategies on how to create a Menger sponge-like fractal body and how to control its fractal dimension. The essence was to utilize alkylketene dimer (AKD), which spontaneously forms super-water-repellent fractal surface. We prepared "fractal AKD particles" with fractal surface structure as templates of pores in fractal body. The fractal body was synthesized by filling the remained space between the packed template particles with a tetramethyl orthosilicate solution, solidifying it by the sol-gel process, and removing the template by calcinations. We have succeeded in systematically creating fractal bodies of silica with different cross-sectional fractal dimensions D(cs)=1.87, 1.84, and 1.80 using "fractal template particles" compressed under the ratio=1.0, 2.0, and 3.0, respectively. We also discussed the possibilities of their fractal geometries in comparison with mathematical models. We concluded that the created fractal bodies were close to a Menger sponge and its modified one. Our experimental strategy allows us to design fractality of porous materials.     

Numerical computations of molecular reactions in associated systems caused by the formation of fractal structures

The interaction between particles in a system containing fractal clusters has been computationally simulated. The fractal structure of the system has been demonstrated to determine the kinetic characteristics of particle interaction. If a system in an N-dimensional space (N = 2, 3, 4) contains fractal clusters with the fractal dimension D > N-1, the rate of interaction of a free particle with particles belonging to clusters depends on their concentration according to the power law. The exponent gamma of this power law formally corresponds to the kinetic order of the reaction with respect to the concentration of particles belonging to the clusters. Its value is determined by the free surface of the clusters and depends on its fractal dimension D. The results of simulation qualitatively agree with the data on high, non-integral orders of many liquid phase molecular reactions characterized by self-organization of the medium via weak intermolecular interactions, such as hydrogen bonds.     

重力场和电解质浓度对胶体凝聚体分形结构的影响

运用李航等提出的新方法, 克服了DLVO理论中无法理论计算不同电解质浓度下颗粒的表面电位这一困难, 从而可以直接计算出不同电解质浓度下胶体颗粒间的位能. 同时, 还运用胶体颗粒动能的玻耳兹曼分布原理和蒙特卡罗方法来模拟胶体的运动, 并采用非弹性碰撞理论解决了碰撞后凝聚的有效概率问题. 在改进DDA模型的基础上, 成功地建立了以往的模拟中未能建立的重力场中电解质浓度与碰撞凝聚概率间的联系, 结果发现, (1)重力场作用下的凝聚体分形维数随电解质浓度变化的曲线完全不同于无重力条件下的曲线. 无重力作用下, 凝聚结构体分形维数随电解质浓度的变化比较缓慢, 曲线呈“L”形；而重力作用下的分形维数则呈明显的“S”形曲线. (2) 在重力条件下, 慢凝聚包括两个区域, 对电解质浓度不敏感区域和敏感区域. 在敏感区域存在一个电解质浓度的拐点. (3)无重力条件下,不同大小的胶体颗粒在快凝聚时的分形维数都是在1.86±0.01.当电解质浓度降低,凝聚速率变慢,分形维数增加,最大达到2.01±0.02,但不会形成重力条件下的分形维数接近3的结构体.     

Structure and Adsorption Properties of Nanocrystalline Silicon

The structure of the particles of nanocrystalline silicon synthesized in argon plasma with added oxygen is studied. An amorphous shell composed of silicon oxide is formed on the surface of silicon nanoparticles. The particles form clusters with a fractal structure. The adsorption of nitrogen on a powder of nanocrystalline silicon at 77 K is studied, and adsorption isotherms obtained for nanocrystalline silicon and nonporous silica adsorbents with identical specific surface areas are compared. The values of surface fractal dimension of powdered nanocrystalline silicon are calculated using the Frenkel-Halsey-Hill equation for multilayer adsorption under the dominant contribution of van der Waals or capillary forces. It is shown that surface fractal dimension is a structure-sensitive parameter characterizing both the morphology of clusters and the structure (roughness) of the surface of particles and their aggregates.__________Translated from Kolloidnyi Zhurnal, Vol. 67, No. 4, 2005, pp. 541–547.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Tutorskii, Belogorokhov, Ishchenko, Storozhenko.     

A bidimensional simulation of particle-cluster aggregation with variable active sites particles

 In this work a simple program has been developed which simulates the process of particle– cluster aggregation limited by diffusion. All the simulation have been carried out using 2d square lattices with square “particles” having a variable number of active inter-action sites (from 3 to 8) for each particle in order to analyze the effect of such limitation on the fractal dimension of the aggregates. The fractal dimension of such aggregates was calculated by the so-called “box counting” method. It has been shown that there is no change in the value of the fractal dimension (1.70) as the active site number is increased. Instead it appears that there is an average number of active sites of about 2.3 for all the structures no matter how many active interaction sites the particles have. This appears as an interesting result in connection with the aggregation of particles such as renneted casein micelles, which could present differences in the surface density of active sites.

利用二次电子衬度曲线法测定了聚氯乙烯甲基丙烯酸甲酯丁二烯苯乙烯共聚物(PVCMBS)共混物冲击断面的形貌特征及对应的分形维数值.结果表明,材料的断口或微观结构并不是严格的分形结构,这种自相似性仅存在于一定尺码范围内,不同断面形貌特征所对应的分形维数测量值不同,随着MBS用量增加,PVCMBS共混物缺口冲击强度随满足自相似原理的形貌特征所对应的分形维数值增大而增大.本文从理论上讨论了材料断裂韧性与分形维数的关系.     

Electrochemical technique for the determination of fractal dimension of dental surfaces

Fractal dimension of a carious tooth surface was determined using an electrochemical method. The method was based on time-dependent diffusion towards electrode surfaces, which is one of the most useful and reliable methods for the determination of fractal dimension of electrode surfaces. For this purpose, the tooth was covered with a gold layer, which acted as an electrode in electrochemical experiments. It is suggested that the fractal dimension can be used as a quantitative measure of the state of dental surfaces. The method presented demonstrates the power of electrochemical techniques for the determination of fractal dimension of surface of non-conducting objects.
