Sequential separation of Cu(II)/Ni(II)/Fe(II) from strong-acidic pickling wastewater with a two-stage process based on a bi-pyridine chelating resin

A self-synthesized bi-pyridine chelating resin (PAPY) could separate Cu(II)/Ni(II)/Fe(II) sequentially from strong-acidic pickling wastewater by a two-stage pH-adjusted process, in which Cu(II), Ni(II), and Fe(II) were successively preferred by PAPY. In the first stage (pH 1.0), the separation factor of Cu(II) over Ni(II) reached 61.43 in Cu(II)-Ni(II)-Fe(II) systems. In the second stage (pH 2.0), the separation factor of Ni(II) over Fe(II) reached 92.82 in Ni(II)-Fe(II) systems. Emphasis was placed on the selective separation of Cu(II) and Ni(II) in the first-stage. The adsorption amounts of Cu(II) onto PAPY were 1.2 mmol/g in the first stage, while those of Ni(II) and Fe(II) were lower than 0.3 mmol/g. Cu(II) adsorption was hardly affected by Ni(II) with the presence of dense Fe(II), but Cu(II) inhibited Ni(II) adsorption strongly. Part of preloaded Ni(II) could be replaced by Cu(II) based on the replacement effect. Compared with the absence of Fe(II), dense Fe(II) could obviously enhance the separation of Cu(II)-Ni(II). More than 95.0% of Cu(II) could be removed in the former 240 BV (BV for bed volume of the adsorbent) in the fixed-bed adsorption column process with the flow rate of 2.5 BV/h. As proved by X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS) and density functional theory (DFT) analyses, Cu(II) exerted a much stronger deprotonation and chelation ability toward PAPY than Ni(II) and Fe(II). Thus, the work shows a great potential in the separation and purification of heavy metal resources from strong-acidic pickling wastewaters.

Preparation of modified multi‐walled carbon nanotubes as a reinforcement for epoxy shape‐memory polymer composites

Effectively improving the mechanical properties and thermal resistance of epoxy shape‐memory polymers (ESMPs) without affecting their shape‐memory performance is necessary to expand these polymers in practical applications. In this article, modified multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were prepared and used as efficient reinforcement for enhancing the comprehensive properties of ESMPs. Increases of nearly 289% to 444% for impact strength and 112% to 184% for tensile force were obtained by adding only 0.1 to 1 wt% epoxy‐modified MWCNTs. The addition of unmodified and carboxyl‐modified MWCNTs was also investigated but showed less impact on the mechanical properties of the ESMPs than epoxy‐modified MWCNTs. Thermogravimetry analysis (TGA) and dynamic mechanical analyses (DMA) showed that less than 1 wt% modified MWCNTs can enhance the heat resistance of ESMPs greatly. Although the shape recovery time for composite materials increased upon adding the MWCNTs, the entire recovery time was still less than 1 minute, and the shape recovery rate was relatively high, nearly 100%.

Preparation of Low-dielectric Permittivity Polyimide Resins with High Surface Activity from Chemically Bonded Hyperbranched Polysiloxane

Thermosetting resin matrix is the key component of advanced wave-transparent composites,where low dielectric constant,excellent processability,high thermal stability,as well as good bonding ability are required for resins.Herein,we prepared a series of phenylethynyl terminated polyimide(PI)resins by grafting amine-functionalized hyperbranched polysiloxane(HBPSi)to PI chains during the in situ polymerization.The effects of HBPSi on the processability of oligomers,molecular packing,thermal stability,dielectric property and bonding ability to reinforce Kevlar fibers of the cured PI/HBPSi composite resins have been examined in detail.The dielectric constants of the cured composite resins were greatly reduced from 3.29 to 2.19 without compromising its processability and thermal stability.Meanwhile,the 10 wt％HBPSi-containing PI resin demonstrated better bonding ability to reinforce fibers with the interfacial shear strength(IFSS)of 37.64 MPa,compared with that of neat PI-6 matrix(27.34 MPa),and better adhesion to metal with the lap shear strength of 10.48 MPa,50％higher than that of neat resin PI-6(6.98 MPa).These resultant PI/HBPSi composite resins exhibit excellent comprehensive properties,indicating their great potential as low-dielectric constant resin matrix in radar radome.     

Scale-Up Preparation of Crocins I and II from Gardenia jasminoides by a Two-Step Chromatographic Approach and Their Inhibitory Activity Against ATP Citrate Lyase

Crocins are highly valuable natural compounds for treating human disorders, and they are also high-end spices and colorants in the food industry. Due to the limitation of obtaining this type of highly polar compound, the commercial prices of crocins I and II are expensive. In this study, macroporous resin column chromatography combined with high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) was used to purify crocins I and II from natural sources. With only two chromatographic steps, both compounds were simultaneously isolated from the dry fruit of Gardenia jasminoides, which is a cheap herbal medicine distributed in a number of countries. In an effort to shorten the isolation time and reduce solvent usage, forward and reverse rotations were successively utilized in the HSCCC isolation procedure. Crocins I and II were simultaneously obtained from a herbal resource with high recoveries of 0.5% and 0.1%, respectively, and high purities of 98.7% and 99.1%, respectively, by HPLC analysis. The optimized preparation method was proven to be highly efficient, convenient, and cost-effective. Crocins I and II exhibited inhibitory activity against ATP citrate lyase, and their IC₅₀ values were determined to be 36.3 ± 6.24 and 29.7 ± 7.41 μM, respectively.
