Three-layer core/shell latex particles with various shell crosslinking level and shell thickness were prepared by multistep emulsion polymerization, and the hollow latex particles with different morphologies were then obtained after alkali post-treatment. Influences of divinyl benzene(DVB) content and the core/shell mass ratio on emulsion polymerization and particle morphology were investigated. Results showed that with the increase of DVB content, the percentage of total amount of ―COOH on the particle surface and free in aqueous phase(PSFa) decreased, and the morphology of the post-treated particles underwent evolution from cracked, intact hollow to deficient swelling structure. Decreasing the core/shell mass ratio could not only make more carboxyl groups encapsulated by the shell, but also increase the shell resistance to the swelling of the core. The uniform hollow latex particles with intact morphology were obtained when the DVB content was 3.54 wt% and the core/shell mass ratio was 1/6. 相似文献
Summary: The synthesis of core‐shell particles with a poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) shell and magnetite (Fe3O4) contents of between 10 wt.‐% and 41 wt.‐% proceeds by surface‐initiated ring‐opening polymerization of ε‐caprolactone to give surface‐immobilized oligomers with between 1 400 g · mol−1 and 11 500 g · mol−1. The particles are dispersable in good solvents for the PCL shell. Magnetization experiments on the resulting superparamagnetic ferrofluids give a core‐size distribution with an average diameter, dv, of about 9.7 nm.

The behavior of hydroxide and hydrated protons, the auto‐ionization products of water, at surfaces is important for a wide range of applications and disciplines. However, it is unknown at which bulk concentration these ions start to become surface active at the water–air interface. Here, we report changes in the D2O–air interface in the presence of excess D+hyd/OD?hyd determined using surface‐sensitive vibrational sum‐frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy. The onset of the perturbation of the D2O surface occurs at a bulk concentration as low as 2.7±0.2 mm D+hyd. In contrast, a concentration of several hundred mm OD?hyd is required to change the D2O surface. The hydrated proton is thus orders of magnitude more surface‐active than hydroxide at the water–air interface. 相似文献
Hierarchical Fe3O4@poly(4‐vinylpyridine‐co‐divinylbenzene)@Au (Fe3O4@P(4‐VP–DVB)@Au) nanostructures were fabricated successfully by means of a facile two‐step synthesis process. In this study, well‐defined core–shell Fe3O4@P(4‐VP–DVB) microspheres were first prepared with a simple polymerization method, in which 4‐VP was easily polymerized on the surface of Fe3O4 nanoparticles by means of strong hydrogen‐bond interactions between ? COOH groups on poly(acrylic acid)‐modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles and a 4‐VP monomer. HAuCl4 was adsorbed on the chains of a P(4‐VP) shell and then reduced to Au nanoparticles by NaBH4, which were embedded into the P(4‐VP) shell of the composite microspheres to finally form the Fe3O4@P(4‐VP–DVB)@Au nanostructures. The obtained Fe3O4@P(4‐VP–DVB)@Au catalysts with different Au loadings were applied in the reduction of 4‐nitrophenol (4‐NP) and exhibited excellent catalytic activity (up to 3025 h?1 of turnover frequency), facile magnetic separation (up to 31.9 emu g?1 of specific saturation magnetization), and good durability (over 98 % of conversion of 4‐NP after ten runs of recyclable catalysis and almost negligible leaching of Au). 相似文献
Nanoscale composite materials based on the SiO2–TiO2 system were prepared in the form of co-precipitated composites and core SiO2–shell TiO2 composites, with specific surface area 150–650 m2/g and sorption volumes 0.1–1.0 cm3/g. It is shown that variation of phase composition and morphology permits to change their structural-adsorption properties and nanocrystallites size after thermal treatment. It is discovered that co-precipitated composite materials differ from core SiO2–shell TiO2 composites by a component interaction degree. It determines the difference of the titan-containing component crystallization process and alteration of their structural-absorption properties after thermal treatment. The results of the tests of composites as photocatalysts for Rhodamine B decomposition reaction, as catalysts of Hantzsch and Biginelli reaction, and as fillers in electrorheological fluids are shown. 相似文献

In order to develop the seeded dispersion polymerization technique for the production of micron-sized monodispersed core/shell
composite polymer particles the effect of polymerization temperature on the core/shell morphology was examined. Micron-sized
monodispersed composite particles were produced by seeded dispersion polymerizations of styrene with about 1.4-μm-sized monodispersed
poly(n-butyl methacrylate) (Pn-BMA) and poly(i-butyl methacrylate) (Pi-BMA) particles in a methanol/water (4/1, w/w) medium in the temperature range from 20 to 90 °C. The composite particles,
PBMA/polystyrene (PS) (2/1, w/w), consisting of a PBMA core and a PS shell were produced with 2,2′-azobis(4-methoxy-2,4-dimethyl
valeronitrile) initiator at 30 °C for Pn-BMA seed and with 2,2′-azobis(isobutyronitrile) initiator at 60 °C for Pi-BMA seed. The polymerization temperatures were a little above the glass-transition temperatures (Tg) of both Pn-BMA (20 °C) and Pi-BMA (40 °C). On the other hand, when the seeded dispersion polymerizations were carried out at much higher temperatures than
the Tg of the seed polymers, composite particles having a polymeric oil-in-oil structure were produced.

The use of magnetic latex particles as solid support in biomedical applications is favourable when homogeneous and well-defined core–shell polymer particles are used. Accordingly, this paper concerns with the synthesis of magnetic poly(styrene–divinylbenzene) latex particles using emulsion polymerization of styrene (St) and divinylbenzene (DVB) monomers in the presence of preformed oil in water organic ferrofluid emulsion droplets as seed. The key parameters which affect on formation and morphology of the prepared magnetic latexes were investigated, including type of magnetic emulsion, St/DVB monomers ratio, DVB amount, type of initiator and surfactant nature. In this study, two different magnetic emulsions were used, low and high octane content magnetic emulsions. The magnetic emulsions were stabilized using different types of surfactants including AP, Triton X 405 and SDS. In addition, four different initiators, including AIBN, V50, ACPA and KPS were examined. The morphology of the prepared magnetic latexes was investigated using transmission electron microscopy. In addition, particle size and size distribution, magnetic content and magnetic properties of the prepared magnetic latexes were also examined, using various techniques, e.g. dynamic light scattering, thermal gravimetric analysis and vibrating sample magnetometer, respectively. The results showed that the morphology type (Janus like, moon like and/or core–shell) of the prepared magnetic latex particles could be controlled depending mainly on the used formulation. In fact, the use of styrene monomer leads to anisotropic morphology. Whereas, the progressive use of DVB in presence of KPS intiator leads to a well-defined magnetic core and polymer shell structure.
Comparative studies of nanocarbons and nanocarbon-in-silica adsorbents for the immobilization of enzymes, for example, thermostable lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus, were performed. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with different diameters, specific surface areas, and concentrations of surface carboxy groups were studied as the nanocarbon adsorbents. The nanocarbon-in-silica adsorbents were prepared by the synthesis of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) in SiO2 xerogel in the course of the pyrolysis of C3-C4 alkanes on Ni catalysts; their physicochemical and textural characteristics were studied by thermal analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and nitrogen porosimetry. It was found that carbon nanofibers of different diameters were synthesized in the bulk of a silica matrix only at Ni contents higher than 1–1.5%. The CNFs-in-silica supports were nanoporous: the mean pore diameter and the specific surface area were ~10 nm and 250–300 m2/g, respectively. The heterogeneous biocatalysts prepared by the adsorption of thermostable lipase on the CNTs and CNFs-in-silica supports were investigated in the reaction of triglyceride (tributyrine) hydrolysis; the physicochemical properties of biocatalysts and their enzymatic activity and stability were studied depending on the hydrophobicity-hydrophilicity of the support/matrix. 相似文献
1-(2-methoxy phenyl) piperazine fragment of WAY100635 or its phenolic analogue, derived from DWAY is used to design the desired structure of 5HT1A receptor imaging agents. In this study a DWAY analogue was labeled with 99mTc-nitrido ([99mTcN]2+) core via dithiocarbamate. 2-(piperazin-1-yl) phenol dithiocarbamate was synthesized by the reaction of 2-(piperazin-1-yl) phenol with an equivalent amount of carbon disulfide in KOH solution then radiolabeled with 99mTc-nitrido core. The final complex was characterized by HPLC and its radiochemical purity was more than 90 %. In vitro stability studies have shown the complex was stable at least 4 h after labeling at room temperature. The n-octanol/water partition coefficient experiment demonstrated log p = 1.34 for 99mTcN–OHPP–DTC. Biodistribution results showed that radio tracer had moderate brain uptake (0.39 ± 0.03 %ID/g at 15 min and 0.29 ± 0.02 %ID/g at 120 min) and good retention, suggesting that this complex may lead to a further development of a radiotracer with specific binding to 5-HT1A receptor. 相似文献
The spectrophotometric study of the complexation reaction between 5,5′methylenedisalicylhydroxamic acid and V(V) shows that two complexes are formed, the 1:1 (? = 5100 liters mol?1 cm?1 at 490 nm, log Kest = 5.8 ± 0.1) and the 1:2 (L:V) (? = 6250 liters mol?1 cm?1 at 600 nm, log Kest = 6.1 ± 0.1). A spectrophotometric method is developed for the determination of vanadium (2–9 ppm) at 2 N HCl and 495 nm, which allows its determination in petroleum crude oils with a series of advantages over the ASTM D-1548-63 method. 相似文献
A novel antimicrobial nanohybrid based on near‐infrared (NIR) photothermal conversion is designed for bacteria capture, separation, and sterilization (killing). Positively charged magnetic reduced graphene oxide with modification by polyethylenimine (rGO–Fe3O4–PEI) is prepared and then loaded with core–shell–shell Au–Ag–Au nanorods to construct the nanohybrid rGO–Fe3O4–Au–Ag–Au. NIR laser irradiation melts the outer Au shell and exposes the inner Ag shell, which facilitates controlled release of the silver shell. The nanohybrids combine physical photothermal sterilization as a result of the outer Au shell with the antibacterial effect of the inner Ag shell. In addition, the nanohybrid exhibits high heat conductivity because of the rGO and rapid magnetic‐separation capability that is attributable to Fe3O4. The nanohybrid provides a significant improvement of bactericidal efficiency with respect to bare Au–Ag–Au nanorods and facilitates the isolation of bacteria from sample matrixes. A concentration of 25 μg mL?1 of nanohybrid causes 100 % capture and separation of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (1×108 cfu mL?1) from an aqueous medium in 10 min. In addition, it causes a 22 °C temperature rise for the surrounding solution under NIR irradiation (785 nm, 50 mW cm?2) for 10 min. With magnetic separation, 30 μg mL?1 of nanohybrid results in a 100 % killing rate for E. coli O157:H7 cells. The facile bacteria separation and photothermal sterilization is potentially feasible for environmental and/or clinical treatment. 相似文献
