An investigation of the accelerated thermal degradation of different epoxy resin composites using X-ray microcomputed tomography and optical coherence tomography

Epoxy resin composites reinforced with hollow glass microspheres, microlight microspheres, 3D parabeam glass, and E-Glass individually were subjected to accelerated thermal degradation conditions. X-ray microcomputed tomography (XμCT) was used to evaluate density changes, reinforcement filler damage, homogeneity, cracks and microcracks in the bulk of the different epoxy resin composites. XμCT 3D images, 2D reconstructed images and voids calculations revealed microspheres damage, filler distributions and showed cracks in all composites with different shapes and volume in response to the thermal degradation conditions. In addition, expansion of air bubbles/voids was observed and recorded in the microsphere and microlight epoxy composite samples. In a complementary way, optical coherence tomography (OCT) was used as a novel optical characterisation technique to study structural changes of the surface and near-surface regions of the composites, uncovering signs of surface shrinkage caused by the thermal treatment. Thus, combining XμCT and OCT proved useful in examining epoxy resin composites' structure, filler-resin interface and surface characteristics.     

Bioprocess for solubilization of rock phosphate on starch based medium by Paecilomyces marquandii immobilized on polyurethane foam

Paecilomyces marquandii, a phosphate-solubilizing, starch-utilizing filamentous fungus, was immobilized on polyurethane foam (PUF). The immobilized fungus was applied in a repeated batch (six batches) fermentation process to solubilize Hirapur rock phosphate. The fungus was immobilized on PUF cubes and was used for phosphate solubilization in shake flask repeated batch cultivations. The fungus was also immobilized on PUF sheet and utilized in an airlift bioreactor in a repeated batch process. Maximum soluble phosphate (370 μg/ml) was recorded after third batch with 8 g rock phosphate/l. After 12 days of fermentation, a total production of 1,643 μg phosphate/ml was achieved.     

Preparation of novel ion exchange polyurethane foam and its application for separation and determination of palladium in environmental samples

The new strong anion exchanger (PUFIX) from polyurethane foam was prepared by coupling of the primary amine of the foam matrix with ethyl iodide. PUFIX was characterized using different tools (IR spectra, elemental analysis, density and thermal analysis). The sorption properties of the new anion exchanger (PUFIX) and chromatographic behaviour for separation and determination of palladium(II) ions at low concentrations from aqueous iodide or thiocyanate media were investigated by a batch and dynamic processes. The maximum sorption of Pd(II) was in the pH range of 0.3–2. The kinetics of sorption of the Pd(II) by the PUFIX was found to be fast with average values of half-life of sorption (t_1/2) of 3.32 min. The variation of the sorption of Pd(II) with temperature gives average values of ΔH, ΔS, ΔG and ΔE to be −38.3 kJ mol⁻¹, −100.7 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹, −8.3 and 11.8 kJ mol⁻¹, respectively. The sorption capacity of PUFIX was 1.69 mmol g⁻¹ for Pd(II), preconcentration factors of values ≈250 and the recovery 99–100% were achieved (R.S.D. ≈ 1.24%). The lower detection limit, 1.28 ng mL⁻¹ was evaluated using spectrophotometric method (R.S.D. ≈ 2.46%).     

Separation and determination of trace amounts of zinc, lead, cadmium and mercury in tap and Qaroun lake water using polyurethane foam functionalized with 4-hydroxytoluene and 4-hydroxyacetophenone

A stable chelating sorbent was synthesized by covalently linking 4-hydroxytoluene or 4-hydroxyacetophenone with the polyurethane foam (PUF) through -NN- group. The synthesized chelating sorbents were characterized by IR and UV/vis measurements. The modified foams show excellent stability towards various solvents. Factors influencing the extraction process of Zn(II), Pb(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) were studied and evaluated as a function of pH of metal ion solution and equilibration shaking time. The values of sorption capacity of metal ions (μg g⁻¹) were determined with the two types of bonded foams. The two phenolic bonded foams were studied comparatively. The potential applications of the two newly synthesized foams for the removal and separation of the examined metal ions from two natural water samples (drinking tap water and Qaroun lake water at Fayoum City, Egypt) were investigated. Precision (assessed as a relative standard deviation, R.S.D.) was also evaluated and found to be ≤7.3% (N = 5) with a detection limit under 0.46 μg L⁻¹.     

Polyurethane foam chips combined with liquid chromatography in the determination of unmetabolized polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons excreted in human urine

A method suitable for the determination of unmetabolized polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) excreted at trace levels (ng/L) in human urine for the monitoring of exposure of the general population to PAH contamination was developed. PAHs were determined, after enrichment by solid-phase extraction on polyurethane foam (PUF) chips, by HPLC with fluorescence detection. Different parameters affecting analyte extraction to the PUF, including urine salting-out and organic additives, and optimization of conditions for clean-up and desorption have been investigated. Optimized conditions were 40 mL acidified urine sample, added with magnesium sulfate, tetrahydrofuran and a 2 cm3 PUF chip, and extracted by shaking at 30 rpm for 1 h at ambient temperature. Desorption was performed, after a clean-up step with diluted sodium hydroxide, using a small amount of diethyl ether. The recovery of PAH congeners from spiked urines was >90% in the 2-100 ng/L range; the detection limit was 0.1-0.5 ng/L, depending on the considered PAH congener; day-to-day precision, at 50 ng/L native PAH content, was CV = 10-20%. The proposed technique provides a simple, economical and effective procedure for the determination of trace amounts of unmetabolized PAHs excreted in human urine spot samples.
