Stoichiometry of superconducting YBa2Cu3Oy. Determination of Cu(III)/Cu(II) ratio and oxygen content

The electrical properties of the high T_c superconductor YBa₂Cu₃O_y depend on its oxygen content. The oxygen content is indirectly determined by iodimetric measurement of the oxidation state of copper. A combination of two titrations, with and without addition of KI, prior to dissolving the sample permits the determination of the two species Cu(II) and Cu(III). A simplified automatic titration with potentiometric detection of the end-point is described. The method is suitable for rapid and reliable determinations of the Cu(III)/Cu(II) ratio and total copper content and for controlling the stoichiometry of the compound.Samples of the superconductor were analysed and the stoichiometric coefficient y for oxygen was determined with excellent results. Typically, y=6.811 ± 0.0063 (s.d.) (n=5). A comparison of the total copper content (found by direct analytical determination) with the copper concentration calculated from the stoichiometric formula gives an evaluation of possible deterioration of the sample.

Agitation requirement for synthesis of micron-sized monodisperse polymer particles in soap-free polymerization method

Single-stage polymerization recently proposed for producing micron-sized polymer particles in aqueous media by Gu, Inukai and Konno (2002) was carried out under the control of agitation with styrene monomer, an amphoteric initiator, 2,2′-azobis [N-(2-carboxyethyl)-2-methylpropionamidine] tetrahydrate and a pH buffer NH₃/NH₄Cl at a monomer concentration of 1.1 kmol/m³ H₂O, an initiator concentration of 10 mol/m³ H₂O and a buffer concentration of [NH₃] = [NH₄Cl] = 10 mol/m³ H₂O. In the polymerizations, impeller speed was ranged from 300 to 500 rpm to satisfy complete dispersion of the monomer phase and not to introduce the gas phase from the free surface. Polymerization experiments under steady agitation indicated that impeller speed was an important factor for size distribution of polymer particles. An increase in impeller speed promoted particle coagulation during the polymerization to enlarge the average size of polymer particles but widen the size distribution. To produce polymer particles with narrow size distribution, stepwise reduction in impeller speed was examined in the polymerization experiments. It was demonstrated that this method was more effective than the steady agitation. The impeller speed reduction could produce highly monodisperse particles with an average size of 2 μm and a coefficient of variation of size distributions of 2.2% that was much smaller than typical monodispersity criterion of 10%.

Fluorescent core-shell polymer particles containing luminophore dyes: synthesis and optical response to acetone

Monodisperse dye-containing crosslinked particles are promising for application in novel optical chemical sensors due to their intrinsic sensitivity. However, preparation of these particles in aqueous media still remains a challenge, since luminophores inhibit radical processes or else cannot embed into polymer chains because of difference in monomer reactivity ratios. In this work, novel dye-containing monodisperse crosslinked particles were prepared and characterized. In order to obtain dye-containing monodisperse crosslinked particles, we studied seed copolymerization of styrene in the presence of divinylbenzene. The influence of nature and concentration of the used comonomers and co-solvents on shape, size distributions and surface characteristics of the particles formed was investigated. Shapes and diameters of the particles were analyzed by DLS, TEM and SEM. The data of SEM and optical spectroscopy studies demonstrated that the synthesized particles were able to self-assemble into thin-film three-dimensional ordered structures. Finally, the structures under study are promising for development of sensor devices with optical response to acetone.

The synthesis of Ag-polypyrrole nanocomposite coated latex particles and their application as a fluorescent quenching agent

 Submicron-sized Ag-polypyrrole/poly(styrene-co-methacrylic acid) (Ag-PPy/P(St-co-MAA)) composite particles were fabricated via a redox reaction between pyrrole and AgNO₃ in the presence of P(St-co-MAA) soap-free latex. The products are characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), electron diffraction spectra (EDS), Raman spectra, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that Ag-PPy nanocomposites were in situ deposited onto the surface of P(St-co-MAA) latex particles tailored by carboxylic-acid groups. The nanocomposites of Ag-PPy distributed on the surface of polymer particles transformed from discretely dots to continuously coating as the reaction temperature increased from 15℃ to 60℃. Strawberry-like composite particles were obtained at the reaction temperature of 60℃. The TGA characterization confirmed that the Ag-PPy nanocomposites loading onto the P(St-co-MAA) particles were systematically controlled over a range of 6 wt%-42 wt% by changing the reaction temperatures. The fluorescence quenching effect of the Ag-PPy/P(St-co-MAA) composite particles was explored on Rhodamine B as a model molecule with the Stern-Völmer quenching constant K_SV of 5.9×10⁴ (g/mL)^-1. It is suggested that the fluorescence quenching effect is caused by the resonance energy transfer mechanism.

Monitoring of the degradation dynamics of agricultural films by IR thermography

The high consumption of plastic materials for use in agriculture is generating serious problems regarding environmental impact. Biodegradable materials are at present the only solution to this type of problems. Research in material science is daily proposing different materials with this requirement for application in various sectors. One of the problems is to analyse the degradation states of the films before their application in order to know the time and the modality of degradation. Here we propose a novel method based on thermography vs time which allows the degradation dynamics of agricultural films to be evaluated.In our experiment we put some biodegradable materials of our interest on soil in an open field. The main characteristic of these materials is that they are originally liquid and they are sprayed on soil and immediately cross-link into a film state. Through an IR thermal camera we monitored the state of the films day by day and analysed the thermal images in order to detect the continuous changing of their physical properties.
