Facile Preparation of α‐Zirconium Phosphate/Polyaniline Hybrid Film for Detecting Potassium Ion in a Wide Linear Range

A novel α‐zirconium phosphate/polyaniline (α‐ZrP/PANI) hybrid film used as K⁺ ion sensor was fabricated on carbon paper by electrochemical method. Mechanisms of film formation and detection of K⁺ ions were also proposed. The exfoliated α‐ZrP was mixed with PANI and deposited on carbon paper. The resultant α‐ZrP/PANI film exhibited a good current response to K⁺ ion with different concentrations. It also showed a wide logarithmic linear response in detecting K⁺ ions in the ranges of 10^?8–10^?4 M and 10^?4–10^?2 M, respectively. The results can be attributed to the synergetic effect of α‐ZrP and PANI.     

Construction of the nano-carbon connections among the carbon-coated LiFe0.8Mn0.2PO4 grains by sol-gel technique

Nano-carbon connections among carbon-coated LiFe_0.8Mn_0.2PO₄ grains are successfully constructed using polyacrylic acid and sucrose as carbon sources by sol-gel method, which can improve the electrochemical performance of LiFe_0.8Mn_0.2PO₄. Samples were characterised by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical tests. The electrochemical tests show LiFe_0.8Mn_0.2PO₄ grains connected by nano-carbon networks obtain the discharge specific capacity of 165 mA h g^?1 at 0.1 C rate and excellent rate capability. Its specific capacity reaches 122 mA h g^?1 at 5 C rate. Its capacity retention at 5 C rate attains 97% cycled 100 cycles. Therefore the construction of nano-carbon networks offers an effective and convenient technique to improve the specific capacities and rate capabilities of electrode materials of low electronic conductivity.     

Discrimination of Thermoplastic Polyesters by MALDI-TOF MS and Py-GC/MS

The aim of this work is to discriminate thermoplastic polyester-polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT), which cannot be easily identified by many methods. Both matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and pyrolysis gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) were applied to identify these polyesters owing to their analytical ability to determining polymers' chemical structure. The three thermoplastic polyesters can be easily distinguished by MALDI-TOF MS according to their different repeated units. Py-GC/MS was used to analyze their specific pyrolyzates. The three polyesters can be identified through their characteristic pyrolysis products as well.     

Controllable Release and High‐Efficiency Collection of Hydrogen Peroxide: Application on the Quantitative Investigation of Biomolecule Oxidation Induced by Reactive Oxygen Species

Hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical, both important members of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) family, can cause serious oxidative damages in biological systems. In order to proclaim and prevent oxidation stress, researches on the biomolecule oxidation induced by H₂O₂ or OH^. are in crucial need. However, due to the high reactivity of ROS, traditional methods are difficult to achieve the in situ quantitative investigations on those reactions involving ROS. In this work, using scanning electrochemical microscopy technique (SECM) in a tip generation‐substrate collection mode (TG‐SC), the controllable release and the high‐efficiency collection of electrogenerated H₂O₂ were achieved. Compared to ex situ fluorescence method, SECM improved the collection efficiency approximately two times larger. Based on it, SECM combined with surface plasmon resonance (SPR) was employed to in situ monitor the protein oxidation (taking Cu₁₂⁺? MT as a model) induced by H₂O₂. OH^., which was generated from the interaction between H₂O₂ and Cu₁₂⁺? MT, can attack the peptide chain and induced the unrepairable protein oxidation damage. The whole process was quantitatively characterized by SPR, and the linear relationship between SPR dip shift and the amounts of released H₂O₂ was successfully built. Our work proves that the combined SECM‐SPR technique can realize the in situ quantitative determinations of the biomolecule oxidation induced by ROS, which affords an avenue for further elucidation on the mechanisms of oxidation stress in organisms.     

Development and Investigation of a Mesh-Electrode Linear Ion Trap (ME-LIT) Mass Analyzer

A mesh-electrode linear ion trap (ME-LIT) mass analyzer was developed and its performance was primarily characterized. In conventional linear ion trap mass analyzers, the trapped ions are mass-selected and then ejected in a radial direction by a slot on a trap electrode. The presence of slots can strongly affect the electric field distribution in the ion trapping region and distort the mass analysis performance. To compensate for detrimental electric field effects, the slot is usually designed and fabricated to be as small as possible, and also has very high mechanical accuracy and symmetry. A ME-LIT with several mesh electrodes was built to compensate for the effects caused by slots. Each mesh electrode was fabricated from a plate electrode with a relatively large slot and the slot was covered with a conductive mesh. Our preliminary experimental results show that the ME-LIT could considerably diminish the detrimental electric field effects caused by slots, and increase the mass resolving power and ion detection efficiency. Even with 4-mm-wide slots, a mass resolution in excess of 600 was obtained using the ME-LIT. Mass resolution could be remarkably improved using mesh electrodes in ion traps with asymmetric electrodes. The stability diagram of the ME-LIT was mapped, and highly efficient tandem mass spectrometry was demonstrated. The ME-LIT was qualified as a LIT mass analyzer. The ME-LIT can improve the mass resolution and decrease the requirements of mechanical accuracy and symmetry of slots, so it shows potential for a wide range of practical uses.

Morphology and mechanical behavior of isotactic polypropylene with different stereo‐defect distribution in injection molding

Large amount of work has been published on the isotacticity–properties relationship of isotactic polypropylene (iPP). However, the stereo‐defect distribution dependence of morphology and mechanical properties of iPP injection molding samples is still not clear. In this study, two different isotactic polypropylene (iPP) resins (PP‐A and PP‐B) with similar average isotacticity but different stereo‐defect distribution were selected to investigate the morphology evolution and mechanical properties (tensile and notching) of their injection molding samples using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), 2D wide angle X‐ray diffraction (2D‐WAXD), and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results of DMA showed that the molecular movement ability of PP‐A (with less uniform distribution of stereo‐defect) was stronger than that of PP‐B, meanwhile the analysis of DSC and SEM suggested that after injection molding, smaller spherullites, and crystals with higher perfection had formed in the specimens of PP‐A. The resulting of tensile properties of PP‐A were found to be better than that of PP‐B. The results of morphology evolution by SEM observation and 2D‐WAXD showed that PP‐A is more likely to occur interspherulite deformation and can disperse the tensile stress more efficiently, and therefore, its crystal structure can withstand a greater force when tensile stress is applied. On the other hand, PP‐B has larger spherulites and boundaries, and low perfection of lamellaes, and the intraspherulte deformation tend to take place. It is easier for the crystal of PP‐B to be broken up and reoriented along the tensile direction. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Crystal structures and electrochemical properties of two Mn(II) 2-sulfoterephthalate complexes with N-donor ligands

Two Mn(II) sulfoterephthalate complexes, [Mn(HStp)(o-Phen)₂] (I) and [Mn(HStp)(2,2′-Bipy)₂] (II) (H₃Stp = 2-sulfoterephthalic acid, o-Phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, 2,2′-Bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine), were synthesized under hydrothermal condition. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that complexes I and II possess similar structure, in which the center Mn²⁺ ions are hexa-coordinated with one Hstpanion and two N-donor ligands. For both of them, the formation of 3D supramolecular structures are based on both H-bonds and π...π/C-H...π stacking interactions. Electrochemical properties of complexes I and II have been investigated by means of cyclic voltmetry, which shows that electron transfer between Mn(III) and Mn(II) in electrolysis is quasi-reversible process.     

Thermal behavior of typical weak basic ion exchange resin

Thermal behaviors of typical weak basic ion exchange resins (301 and 315) were studied with thermogravimetry, elemental analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer in this study. Results indicated that there were three stages for 301 resin mass loss, the first stage and the second stage were mainly related to the decomposition of functional group, and the third stage was the decomposition of main chain. Whereas there were two stages for 315 resin mass loss, the first stage was elimination of moisture, and the second stage was the decompositions of functional group and main chain. Moreover, the decomposition of tertiary amine had three stages, the polyamine was a continuous mass loss process, and the thermostability of tertiary amine was weaker than that of polyamine.     

Thermal study of HNIW(CL-20) and mixtures containing aluminum powder

The thermal behavior of the energetic material 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaaza-tetracyclo-[5.5.0.0^5,9.0^3,11]-dodecane (HNIW or CL-20) and its mixtures with aluminum under linear temperature control condition and adiabatic condition were investigated by DSC-TG-MS-FT-IR and ARC. Two different particle sizes of aluminum powder (10 μm and 50 nm) were added into CL-20. The influence of particle size on the thermal behavior of CL-20 was studied by using of these apparatuses. The enthalpies of reaction and onset temperatures were determined for various heating rates. The kinetic parameters were found according to Kissinger method, Ozawa method, and Friedman method based on DSC data. The gaseous products from the decomposition of CL-20 and its mixtures were determined by simultaneous MS-FT-IR experiments. ARC measurements were performed to investigate the thermal stability of the samples. The onset temperature, adiabatic temperature rise, self-heat rate, time to maximum rate, and pressure–temperature profile were found from the data measured by ARC. Based on these results, the catalytic effect of aluminum powder was studied.
