Naphthalimide-rhodamine based fluorescent probe for ratiometric sensing of cellular pH

The pH values of lysosomes in cancer cells is slightly lower than that in normal cells, which can be used to distinguish cancer cells from normal cells. According to this, a naphthalimide-rhodamine based fluorescent probe(hereafter referred to as RBN) with a pK_a of 4.20 was designed and synthesized for ratiometric sensing of cellular pH via fluorescence resonance energy transfer(FRET), which can respond to different pH precisely through ratiometric fluorescence intensity(Ⅰ_(577)/Ⅰ_(540)). RBN can be employed to distinguish cancer cells from normal cells on the basis of different fluorescent response, in particular, RBN showed excellent water solubility and low cell toxicity, all these are quite significant for potential application in cancer diagnose and therapy.     

SnS2/graphene nanocomposite: A high rate anode material for lithium ion battery

In this work,via a facile solvothermal route,we synthesized an anode material for lithium ion batteries(LIBs)—SnS_2 nanoparticle/graphene(SnS_2 NP/GNs) nanocomposite.The nanocomposite consists of SnS_2nanoparticles with an average diameter of 4 nm and graphene nanosheets without restacking.The SnS_2 nanoparticles are firmly anchored on the graphene nanosheets.As an anode material for LIBs,the nanocomposite exhibits good Li storage performance especially high rate performance.At the high current rate of 5,10,and 20 A/g,the nanocomposite delivered high capacities of 525,443,and 378 mAh/g,respectively.The good conductivity of the graphene nanosheets and the small particle size of SnS_2contribute to the electrochemical performance of SnS_2 NP/GNs.

对海宁市区PM_(2.5)来源进行分析,分别于2016年11月11日~24日以及2016年12月13日~21日期间,使用单颗粒气溶胶质谱仪(SPAMS)在海宁市环境保护监测站点位进行了为期14天和8天的定点监测,分别代表了秋季和冬季的监测结果。结果表明,监测期间海宁市总体空气质量较好,优、良天气占比为75.8%。海宁市首要污染物为机动车尾气源,燃煤源次之,工业源排在第三位。整体来看,监测期间PM_(2.5)质量浓度的升高大多伴随着燃煤及机动车尾气占比的同步升高。秋、冬季的重度污染过程与燃煤源和机动车尾气源的升高有关,其中秋季的燃煤源贡献高峰可能与监测点位西北方向的气团传输有关。     

A novel method to prepare microcellular poly(vinyl alcohol) foam based on thermal processing and supercritical fluid

Combining the thermal processing and supercritical fluid technology develops a novel preparation method of microcellular poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). Water, as the plasticizer in system, can form the hydrogen bonding with pendant hydroxyl of PVA and weaken its strong intermolecular and intramolecular forces to realize the thermal processing. Supercritical carbon dioxide (sc‐CO₂) can easily dissolve into water‐plasticized PVA (WPVA) because of the destruction of crystal region caused by water, and the enhanced sc‐CO₂ solubility can greatly improve the foamability of WPVA. The porous structure generates through the saturation of sc‐CO₂ in WPVA sample and followed by pressure drop‐induced phase separation. The foaming behavior of WPVA was studied as a function of saturation pressure, foaming temperature, and saturation time. The cell density, cell size, and distribution of the obtained foam can be controlled by tuning processing conditions. The results revealed that the cell size decreased, and its distribution narrowed with saturation pressure increasing, or decrease of foaming temperature. But excessively increasing the saturation time generated a negative effect on the foaming behavior owing to the deteriorated plasticization effect resulted from the loss of water.

Ionic liquid functionalized graphene oxide for enhancement of styrene‐butadiene rubber nanocomposites

Ionic liquid 1‐allyl‐3‐methyl‐imidazolium chloride (AMICl) is used to fine‐tune the surface properties of graphene oxide (GO) sheets for fabricating ionic liquid functionalized GO (GO‐IL)/styrene‐butadiene rubber (SBR) nanocomposites. The morphology and structure of GO‐IL are characterized using atomic force microscope, X‐ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV‐vis spectra and Raman spectra. The interaction between GO and AMICl molecules as well as the effects of GO‐IL on the mechanical properties, thermal conductivity and solvent resistance of SBR are thoroughly studied. It is found that AMICl molecules can interact with GO via the combination of hydrogen bond and cation–π interaction. GO‐IL can be well‐dispersed in the SBR matrix, as confirmed by X‐ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. Therefore, the SBR nanocomposites incorporating GO‐IL exhibit greatly enhanced performance. The tensile strength, tear strength, thermal conductivity and solvent resistance of GO‐IL/SBR nanocomposite with 5 parts per hundred rubber GO‐IL are increased by 505, 362, 34 and 31%, respectively, compared with neat SBR. This method provides a new insight into the fabrication of multifunctional GO‐based rubber composites. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

The Effect of Intermolecular Hydrogen Bonding on the Polyaniline Water Complex

The polyaniline water hydrogen-bonded complex was studied by first-principles calculation. The density functional theory method was used to calculate the structure characters, natural bond orbital charge distribution, infrared spectra and the frontier molecular orbital. Results showed that the H–O···H–N and C–N···H–O type intermolecular hydrogen bonds were formed. The bonds involved in the intermolecular H-bond were all influenced by the hydrogen bonding interaction. During the hydrogen bond formation, the polymer chains in the complexes were all charged, which can be an important factor contributing to the increase of electrical conductivity. The N1–H vibration was strongly influenced, and the locations as well as the intensities of N1–H absorption bands were all changed in the complexes. In the orbital transition of HOMO to LUMO, the electron density transferred from benzenoid ring to quinoid ring.
