Direct visualization of the nanoscopic three‐phase structure and stiffness of NBR/PVC blends by AFM nanomechanical mapping

The PeakForce Quantitative Nanomechanical Mapping based on atomic force microscope (AFM) is employed to first visualize and then quantify the elastic properties of a model nitrile rubber/poly(vinyl chloride) (NBR/PVC) blend at the nanoscale. This method allows us to consistently observe the changes in mechanical properties of each phase in polymer blends. Beyond measuring and discriminating elastic modulus and adhesion forces of each phase, we tune the AFM tips and the peak force parameters in order to reliably image samples. In view of viscoelastic difference in each phase, a three‐phase coexistence of an unmixed NBR phase, the mixed phase, and PVC microcrystallites is directly visualized in NBR/PVC blends. The nanomechanical investigation is also capable of recognizing the crosslinked rubber phase in cured rubber. The contribution of the mixed phase was quantified and it was found that the mechanical properties of blends are mainly determined by the homogeneity and stiffness of the mixed phase. This study furthers our understanding the structure–mechanical property relationship of thermoplastic elastomers, which is important for their potential design and applications. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Recyclable and reusable Pd(OAc)2/PPh3/PEG‐2000 system for homocoupling reaction of arylboronic acids under air without base

A stable and efficient Pd(OAc)₂/PPh₃/PEG‐2000 catalytic system for homocoupling of arylboronic acids has been developed. In the presence of Pd(OAc)₂ and PPh₃, the homocoupling reaction of arylboronic acids was carried out smoothly in PEG‐2000 at 70 °C under air without base to afford a variety of symmetric biaryls in good to excellent yields. The isolation of the products was readily performed by extraction with diethyl ether, and the Pd(OAc)₂/PPh₃/PEG‐2000 system could be easily recycled and reused six times without significant loss of catalytic activity.

甲烷浓度对碳化硅基底金刚石薄膜摩擦性能影响

利用热丝化学气相沉积法(HFCVD)在碳化硅基底上制备金刚石薄膜,采用场发射扫描电子显微镜、拉曼光谱仪、原子力显微镜研究了在不同甲烷浓度条件下制备的金刚石薄膜表面形貌及物相组成,在干摩擦条件下通过往复式摩擦磨损实验测试并计算了已制备金刚石薄膜的摩擦系数和磨损率,结合物相分析及摩擦磨损实验结果分析了甲烷浓度的改变对金刚石薄膜摩擦磨损性能的影响。结果表明,由于甲烷气体含量的升高,金刚石薄膜结晶质量下降,薄膜由微米晶向纳米晶转变。摩擦磨损实验结果显示:3%甲烷浓度条件下制备的金刚石薄膜耐磨性较好,磨损率为2.2×10^-7 mm³/mN;5%甲烷浓度条件下制备的金刚石薄膜摩擦系数最低(0.032),磨损率为5.7×10^-7 mm³/mN,制备的金刚石薄膜的耐磨损性能相比于碳化硅基底(磨损率为9.89×10^-5 mm³/mN)提升了两个数量级,显著提高了碳化硅基底的耐磨性。     

PURIFICATION OF L-METHIONINE AND N-ACETYL-D-METHIONINE FROM THE MIXTURE OF ENZYMATICALLY DEACYLATED N-ACETYL-DL-METHIONINE

1. INTRODUCTION Methionine, namely 2-amido-4-thiomethyl butyric acid with a structure of CH3SCH2CH2CHCOOH, is one of the essential amino acids and has two natural enantionmers, D and L-methionine. The mixture of L- and D-isomers can be used as analeptics or nutritive additives to maintain the equilibrium of amino acids of feed [1,2]. L-methionine can release active methyl and accelerate the synthesis of choline, which further speeds up the conversion of the lipid accumulated in liv…

速冻蔬菜中氯氰菊酯残留量的测量不确定度评定

依据GB/T 5009.146-2003《植物性食品中有机氯和拟除虫菊酯类农药多种残留的测定》方法,对速冻蔬菜中氯氰菊酯残留量的测量不确定度进行分析和评定。该测量过程所产生的测量不确定度主要来源于气相色谱仪引入的测量不确定度,其次是氯氰菊酯标准工作溶液引入的测量不确定度。标准溶液引入的测量不确定度则主要来源于标准溶液的稀释过程所产生的测量不确定度。

不同溶剂中番茄红素的荧光光谱及其特性研究

用970CRT荧光光度计测定了番茄红素在正己烷、乙酸乙酯、四氢呋喃、氯仿、丙酮和苯等6种溶剂中的荧光光谱以及番茄红素在四氢呋喃溶液中不同浓度下的荧光光谱。对所测光谱分析得出:6种溶剂中荧光光谱的最大峰值波长(λmax)分别为542.5 nm5、48.2 nm5、55.0 nm、555.7 nm、556.4 nm和565.7 nm,由于溶剂效应,随溶剂极性由小到大,荧光光谱的最大峰值波长(λmax)逐渐红移,由这些峰值波长计算得出相应的番茄红素分子在6种溶剂中的跃迁能ET分别为220.5 kJ/mol2、18.2 kJ/mol2、15.6 kJ/mol2、15.3 kJ/mol2、14.9 kJ/mol和211.5 kJ/mol,可见跃迁能ET也随溶剂极性增大而降低;当番茄红素在四氢呋喃溶液中的质量浓度低于50μg/ml时,溶液的荧光强度随溶液浓度增加而增大,当质量浓度高于50μg/ml时,由于番茄红素的激发态分子与基态分子相互作用,荧光强度反而减小;在浓度低于80μg/ml的溶液中,番茄红素的荧光光谱除最大峰值外还有三个较小峰值,据此计算得出相应的番茄红素分子的跃迁能分别为E(T1)=278.2 kJ/mol、E(T2)=260.2 kJ/mol和E(T3)=239.3 kJ/mol。
