Synthesis and Characterization of Lead Sulfide Nanoparticles in Zirconia-Silica-Urethane Thin Films Prepared by the Sol-Gel Process

PbS nanocrystals (NCs) ranging between 4–8 nm were incorporated into Zirconium-Silica-Urethane (ZSUR) matrix obtained by the sol-gel method. The sizes of the particles were controlled by temperature treatment and by concentration of PbS in ZSUR matrix. The sizes of PbS NCs were determined by TEM measurements. The quantum size effect could also be extracted from optical absorption and photoluminescence spectra. The new matrix allows incorporation of up to 40% PbS forming a characteristic structure of dendrite by reacting lead acetate with ammonium thiocyanate in sol-gel matrix. The sol precursors of the matrix for Zirconium-Silica-Urethane contained zirconium oxide (ZrO₂) matrix solution, tetramethoxysilane (TMOS), 3-glycid oxypropyl trimethoxysilane (GLYMO) and polyethylene urethane silane (PEUS) synthesized separately. The ZrO₂ matrix solution was obtained from zirconium n-tetrapropoxide in propanol and acetic acid was used as a chelating agent to stabilize the zirconium oxide precursor.     

Use of chemometrics and mid infrared spectroscopy for the selection of extraction alternatives to reference analytical methods for total fat isolation

Chemometric techniques have been used to compare two methods for fat extraction, namely focused microwave-assisted Soxhlet extraction (FMASE) and dynamic ultrasound-assisted extraction (DUAE), with the conventional Folch method, frequently used as reference. The data generated by a mid infrared spectrometer, after appropriate treatment, provide a simple and effective way for the detection of potential alterations of the fat obtained with the assistance of auxiliary energies, in this case, microwaves and ultrasounds. The results thus obtained are as compared with those from the Folch method, a mild extraction method with a view to finding faster alternatives for routine analysis. Moreover, classification of the samples between cookies and snacks based on extraction kinetics studies was possible, thus demonstrating the importance of these studies for the development of analytical methods. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA) were used for both purposes, namely detection of alterations and classification of the samples as a function of their extraction kinetics, while K Nearest Neighbours (KNN) and Soft Independent Modelling of Class Analogy (SIMCA), based on PCA, models were generated in order both to predict the extraction kinetics of unknown samples, thus adjusting the extraction time as a function of the matrix, and find out explanation to the different extraction kinetics.

Morphology Control over the Organic Nanoparticles of 1,3-Diphenyl-5-（9-anthryl）-2-pyrazoline

The organic nanoparticles of a blue-light-emitting molecule, 1,3-diphenyl-5-(9-anthryl)-2-pyrazuline, were prepared by reprecipitation method using acetonitrile as the solvent for the molecular precursor. Three morphologies, spherical, doughnut-shaped and cubic, could be observed on the silicon substrate forthe nanoparfides by the volume-controlled addition of acetonitrile. The evolution of particle morphology as a function of acetonitrile addition was attributed to the variation of the growth habits of the particles in the different environment. The nanoparticles exhibit the novel photoluminescence spectra as compared to those of monomer and the bulk crystals.     

Nanostructure evolution studies of bulk polymer materials with synchrotron radiation: progress in method development

The prospects of a modern analysis of nanostructure evolution during the processing of polymer materials by means of scattering from synchrotron radiation are demonstrated in examples. The beam sources have gained stability, shortages are located in beamline setups and in method development for the quantitative analysis of voluminous data sets.By using the proposed multidimensional chord distribution function (CDF) analysis method, nanostructure information from small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) data are extracted and visualised. The method can be automated if the beamline setup is able to deliver a full data set with simple constraints. In this case even a simultaneous data evaluation is possible (while one pattern is accumulated, the previous one is analysed). The advantages of the method are demonstrated in a study of the straining of a thermoplastic elastomer. The possibilities of an automated analysis are demonstrated in an investigation of the crystallisation behaviour of high-pressure injection-moulded polyethylene (HPIM-PE). The achievable results of nanostructure analysis of polymer materials are discussed. It is shown that the time-resolved SAXS of polymer materials studied during a transformation and analysed by the CDF method is not just a powerful tool to investigate the relationship between structure and properties of materials; the information that can be gained concerning the processes that control nanostructure evolution is equally important. In the future the enlightenment of such relationships may help to tailor polymer materials with respect to their properties and, beyond that, to improve assessments concerning their aging.

Pt₃Co alloy nanoparticles were prepared by the reduction of H₂PtCl₆ and Co(OOCCH₃)₂ using NaBH₄ as a reducing agent. The Pt₃Co core-Pt shell nanoparticles (Pt₃Co@Pt) were synthesized using hydrogen absorption reduction and characterized by plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and SQUID magnetometer. The results show that average size of Pt₃Co@Pt nanoparticles is 3.6 nm with a standard deviation of 0.9 nm.
