Synthesis and properties of new fluorene-containing copolymer via the catalytic dehydrocoupling reaction of 9,9-dipropargyl fluorene and 4,4′-diphenyl-2,6-dibromo-dithieno-[3,2-b:2′,3′-d]silole

ABSTRACT

New fluorene-containing copolymer was prepared via the catalytic dehydrocoupling reaction of 9,9-dipropargylfluorene and 4,4′-diphenyl-2,6-dibromo-dithieno-[3,2-b:2′,3′-d]silole in 44% yield. The resulting polymer was completely soluble in common organic solvents. The thermal behaviors and optical properties of the resulting polymer were measured and discussed. The chemical structure of polymer was characterized by NMR, IR, and UV-visible spectroscopies. The polymer showed characteristic wide UV-visible absorption band and blue PL maximum value at 440 nm, which is corresponding photon energy of 2.82 eV. The quantum yield (6.44%) of poly(DPF-DTS) was found to be 5 times higher than that of poly(DPF-bithiophene)).     

Preparation of highly crystalline blue emitting MVO4:Tm (M=Gd, Y) spherical nanoparticles: Effects of activator concentration and annealing temperature on luminescence, lifetime and quantum yield

Highly crystalline spherical nanoparticles of MVO₄:Tm³⁺ (M=Gd, Y) having a size of 20–45 nm were prepared using ethylene glycol as both capping agent and reaction medium. X-ray diffraction study shows linear decrease in the unit cell volume with an increase in Tm³⁺ concentrations in MVO₄ (M=Gd, Y; Tm³⁺=0, 2, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 at%), indicative of quantitative substitution of Gd³⁺/Y³⁺ lattice sites by Tm³⁺ ions in MVO₄. Blue light emission at 475 nm is observed after excitation at 310 nm due to energy transfer from VO₄³⁻ absorption band to Tm³⁺. Emission intensity and average decay lifetime increase with an increase in heat treatment from 500 to 900 °C. This has been attributed to an extent of reduction in non-radiative process arising from surface. The emission intensity of Tm³⁺ in GdVO₄ host is higher than that in YVO₄ and thus the former host is better. Quantum yield increases with increase in heat-treatment temperature. This material will be the alternative blue light emitter.

Experimental Investigation on Yield Stress of Water-in-Heavy Crude Oil Emulsions in Order to Improve Pipeline Flow

An experimental study on yield stress of water-in-heavy crude oil emulsions has been carried out by using a HAAKE RS6000 Rheometer with a vane-type rotor. Several factors such as oil volume fraction, shear rate, temperature, and emulsifying agent on the yield stress of emulsions were investigated. Zero shear viscosity of heavy crude oil was 6000 mPas at 30°C, with a density 955 kg/m³. This study shows that the yield stress increases linearly with the increasing shear rate, and displays an exponential decay with increasing the temperature and oil volume fraction. Although the addition of emulsifying agent enhanced the stability of the emulsion, to some extent it also increased the yield stress, especially for the emulsions with high oil volume fractions. Therefore, to reduce the start-up force for the pipeline transport of water-in-heavy crude oil emulsions, the starting rate should be decreased, temperature increased, or oil volume fraction increased. These results are helpful to improve the transportation of water-in-heavy crude oil in pipeline.      

Effect of Water Fraction on Rheological Properties of Waxy Crude Oil Emulsions

This article discusses the effect of water fraction on the rheological properties of waxy crude oil emulsions including gel point, yield stress, viscosity, and thixotropy. The experimental results reveal that the rheological behaviors of the w/o emulsion samples all intensify with the increase of water volume fraction within 60%. Of more significance is that a correlation for w/o emulsions between yield stress and water volume fraction is put forward with an average relative error of 6.75%. In addition, some mainstream viscosity prediction models of w/o emulsions are evaluated, and Elgibaly model is the best-fit for the emulsions in this study.     

Kinetics and efficiency displayed by supported and suspended TiO2 catalysts applied to the disinfection of Escherichia coli

TiO₂-mediated photocatalysis is widely used in a variety of applications and products in the environmental and energy fields, including photoelectrochemical conversion, self-cleaning surfaces, and especially water purification systems. The dimensionality of the structure of a TiO₂ material can affect its properties, functions, and more specifically, its photocatalytic performance. In this work, the photocatalytic inactivation of Gram-negative Escherichia coli using three photocatalysts, differing in their structure and other characteristics, was studied in a batch reactor under UVA light. The aim was to establish the disinfection efficiency of solid TiO₂ compared with that of suspended catalysts, widely considered as reference cases for photocatalytic water disinfection. The bacterial inactivation profiles obtained showed that: (1) the photoinactivation was exclusively related to the quantity of photons retained per unit of treated volume, irrespective of the characteristics of the photocatalyst and the emitted light flux densities; (2) across the whole UV light range studied, each of the photocatalytic solids was able to achieve more than 2 log bacterial inactivation with less than 2 h UV irradiation; (3) none of the used catalysts achieved a total bacterial disinfection during the treatment time. For each of the catalysts the quantum yield has been assessed in terms of disinfection efficiency, the 2D material showed almost the same performance as those of suspended catalysts. This catalyst is promising for supported photocatalysis applications.
