Mesoporous material grafted with luminescent molecules for the design of selective metal ion chemosensor

Luminescent Schiff-base groups have been successfully grafted on the surface of mesoporous material MCM-48. The grafted Schiff-base groups were employed to prepare luminescent Schiff-base-Zn complex that was covalently bound to the MCM-48 surface. These luminescent mesoporous materials were characterized with X-ray, UV-VIS and emission spectroscopic methods. Experimental results demonstrated that MCM-48 modified with functional groups exhibited novel luminescent property. The chemosensing property of modified MCM-48 sample was investigated. It was demonstrated that the fluorescence of MCM-48 solid with Schiff-base groups could be completely quenched by Cu²⁺ cation and this mesoporous material was suitable for sensing Cu²⁺ cation in aqueous media.     

Method of sensitivity improving in the non-dispersive infrared gas analysis system

A method of interference correction for improving the sensitivity of non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) gas analysis system is demonstrated. Based on the proposed method, the interference due to water vapor and carbon dioxide in the NDIR NO analyzer is corrected. After interference correction, the absorbance signal at the NO filter channel is only controlled by the absorption of NO, and the sensitivity of the analyzer is improved greatly. In the field experiment for pollution source emission monitoring, the concentration trend of NO monitored by NDIR analyzer is in good agreement with the differential optical absorption spectroscopy NO analyzer. Small variations of NO concentration can also be resolved, and the measuring correlation coefficient of the two analyzers is 94.28%.

Preparation and characterization of covalently bonded PVA/Laponite/HAPI nanocomposite multilayer freestanding films by layer‐by‐layer assembly

The layer‐by‐layer (LBL) assembly technique is an attractive method to make functional multilayer thin films and has been applied to fabricate a wide range of materials. LBL materials could improve optical transmittance and mechanical properties if the film components were covalently bonded. Covalently bonded nanocomposite multilayer films were prepared by employing hydrophilic aliphatic polyisocyanate (HAPI) as the reactive component, to react with Laponite and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). FT‐IR spectra suggested that HAPI reacted with Laponite and PVA at ambient temperature rapidly. Ellipsometry measurement showed that the film thickness was in linear growth. The influences of HAPI on the optical, mechanical and thermal properties of the films were investigated by UV‐Vis spectroscopy, tensile stress measurement, DSC and TGA. The obtained results showed that the optical transmittance and mechanical strength were enhanced when the film components were covalently bonded by HAPI. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

pH/temperature double responsive behaviors and mechanical strength of laponite‐crosslinked poly(DEA‐co‐DMAEMA) nanocomposite hydrogels

A nanocomposite (NC) hydrogel crosslinked by inorganic Laponite XLG was successfully synthesized via in situ free radical polymerization of monomers N,N‐diethylacrylamide and (2‐dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA). Polymerization was carried out at room temperature due to the accelerating effect of DMAEMA. The as‐prepared hydrogels displayed controlled transformation in optical transmittance and volume in response to small diversification of environmental factors, such as temperature and pH. The compressive strength of swollen D_6:1G₆ hydrogels was as high as 2219 kPa while compressive strain was 95%. Cyclic compression measurement exhibited good elastic properties of NC hydrogels. This work provides a facile method for fabricating stimuli‐responsive hydrogels with superior mechanical property. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part B: Polym.

Two new 1-D lanthanide selenidogermanates with the [Ge2Se6]4− anion as a bridging ligand to a lanthanide complex cation

Two new 1-D lanthanide selenidogermanates [Ln₂(tepa)₂(μ-OH)₂(μ-Ge₂Se₆)]_n·xnH₂O (Ln = Tb (1), x = 0.5; Ln = Tm (2), x = 0; tepa = tetraethylenepentamine) have been solvothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. Compounds 1 and 2 contain 1-D polymeric chains [Ln₂(tepa)₂(μ-OH)₂(μ-Ge₂Se₆)]_n constructed by a [Ge₂Se₆]^4? anion as a bridging ligand with trans terminal Se atoms linking [Ln₂(μ-OH)₂(tepa)₂]⁴⁺ complex cations, but the stacking patterns of these neutral chains are different. The 1-D chains of 1 are alternately stacked in a crossing manner, while the infinite chains of 2 are arranged in a parallel manner. Although a few lanthanide selenidogermanates containing the [Ge₂Se₆]^4? anion have been reported, their [Ge₂Se₆]^4? anions are usually discrete. Compounds 1 and 2 provide the rare example of [Ge₂Se₆]^4? anion as a bridging ligand to a lanthanide complex cation. Their optical and magnetic properties have also been studied.

Controlled loading and release of methylene blue from LbL polyurethane/poly(acrylic acid) film

The layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembled multilayer films are widely used in the biomedical field for the controlled drug delivery. Here, multilayer films were assembled by LbL technique through alternating deposition of cationic polyurethane (PU) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) on glass slides. Methylene blue (MB) was used as a model drug to investigate the loading and release ability of the prepared multilayer film. The results showed that the loading rate and loading amount of MB were greatly influenced by pH value of the dye solution, and the release rate of MB was controlled both by ionic strength and pH value of immersing solution. The result also indicated that the film had a good reversibility of drug loading and release. It suggested that the PU/PAA multilayer film had potential applications in drug delivery and controlled release. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
