Quartz Crystal Microbalance Monitoring of Asphaltene Adsorption/Deposition

Adsorption and deposition of asphaltenes onto differently coated (hydrophilic surfaces: silica, titanium, alumina, and a noncommercial tailor‐made FeO_x) quartz crystals from heptane/toluene (1∶1) and toluene solutions have been studied with the quartz crystal microbalance method with dissipation measurements (QCM‐D). The results show that the adsorbed mass is related to the solubility state of asphaltenes (aromaticity of the solvent), their origin (aggregate size in solution) and very little to the hydrophilicity of the investigated crystal. Adsorption/deposition of asphaltenes depends on their solubility. We found two cases: Either the asphaltenes are solubilized, or the asphaltenes are partly solubilized and partly precipitated. In the former case, asphaltenes are bounded very tightly to the surface and poorly for the latter. The change in solution composition due to decrease in asphaltene solvency causes formation of a variety of asphaltenes species. The results also were compared and discussed in relation to adsorption onto particles, determined with the UV depletion method. The study shows that QCM‐D method is a very useful tool to study the mechanisms and the effects of solvency of asphaltenes. We discuss and compare the different techniques.     

表面温敏聚合物刷的原子力显微镜和石英晶体微天平研究

通过表面引发的原子转移自由基聚合在硅片表面制备了聚（N-异丙基丙烯酰胺）（PNIPAAm）聚合物刷。用原子力显微镜（AFM）分别研究了PNIPAAm的接枝动力学、温度和溶剂性质对厚度的影响以及PNIPAAm链与原子力针尖间的粘附力。结果表明,PNIPAAm链在硅片表面的生长具有很好的可控性。常温下厚度为33nm的PNIPAAm膜在水溶液中的增加到82.4nm;而在甲醇/水（v/v,1:1）溶液中,PNIPAAm分子链处于坍塌收缩状态,厚度降低为45nm;在55℃下干燥所得厚度则仅为22nm。力-距离测量结果表明,在溶液中,PNIPAAm链与原子力针尖之间的粘附力远小于在干态下的粘附力。用石英晶体微天平（QCM-D）对PNIPAAm的可逆相转变进行了研究,结果表明PNIPAAm分子链随温度变化的构象转变是发生在30-34℃之间的连续过程。     

Real-Time Characterization of Fibrinogen Interaction with Modified Titanium Dioxide Film by Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation

The adsorption of fibrinogen can be used as a quick indicator of surface haemocompatibility because of its prominent role in coagulation and platelet adhesion. In this work the molecular interaction between fibrinogen and a modified titanium oxide surface/platelet has been studied by quartz crystal microbalanee with dissipation （QCM-D） in situ. In order to further characterize the conformation of adsorbed fibrinogen, αC and γ-chain antibody were used to check the orientation and denaturation of fibrinogen on solid surface. QCM-D investiga- tions revealed the fibrinogen have the trend to adsorb on hydropllilic surface in a side-on orientation by positively charged αC domains, which would reduce the exposure of platelet bonding site on γ chain and enable less platelet adhesion and be activated. These obser- vations suggest that certain conformations of adsorbed fibrinogen are less platelet adhesive than others, which opens a possibility for creating a non-platelet adhesive substrates.     

A Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) Study of Single-Strand DNA Hybridization and Hydrolytic Cleavage

The use of a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) for monitoring in situ the immobilization of single-strand DNA marked with mercaptol group at the 5′-end on the surface of a gold-filled 7.995 MHz AT-cut quartz crystal by Au-S bond with the self-assembly technique is reported. The hybridization of ssDNA with complementary 10-mer ODN and 8-mer ODN is described. The QCM was also employed to analyze DNA cleavage by cerium(IV) ions under moderate conditions. The results showed that the QCM, which is capable of sensitive measurement, was able to investigate the immobilization, hybridization, and cleavage of ssDNA in situ. The cerium(IV) ions produced no cleavage in double-strand DNA; they were, however, able to hydrolyze single-strand DNA. Thus, the hydrolytic cleavage of ssDNA at a specific site could be ensured by protective hybridization.__________From Zhurnal Analiticheskoi Khimii, Vol. 60, No. 8, 2005, pp. 877–880.Original English Text Copyright © 2005 by Zhu, Gao, Shen, Yang, Yuan.The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Water Content of Hydrated Polymer Brushes Measured by an In Situ Combination of a Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation Monitoring and Spectroscopic Ellipsometry

Poly(methacryloyloxy ethyltrimethylammonium chloride) (PMETAC), poly(sulfopropylmethacrylate potassium salt), or poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) brushes are synthesized by means of the atom transfer radical polymerization technique from gold surfaces coated with a monolayer of the initiator ω‐mercaptoundecyl bromo isobutyrate. The brush growth is followed in situ and in real time by the combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation technique (QCM‐D) and spectroscopic ellipsometry in a single device. The combination of QCM‐D and ellipsometry allows for the simultaneous determination of both the acoustic mass, m_acous, comprising the mass of the polymer and the solvent, and the optical mass, m_opt, which corresponds to the polymer mass alone. Brush hydration is calculated from the difference between the values obtained for m_acous and m_opt for each polymer synthesized. Brush hydration is then used to quantify the percentage of water released in the brush during collapse; a 30–40% release of water for PMETAC and PSPM brushes in 1 M NaCl and 80% for PNIPAM brushes when the temperature is increased to values above the lower critical solution temperature is observed.

Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance（EQCM） Characterization of Electrodeposition and Catalytic Activity of Pd-based Electrocatalysts for Ethanol Oxidation

Pd was electrochemically deposited on gold-coated quartz crystals at nanogram-level. The coulombic efficiency and initial nucleation and growth mechanism of potentiostatic Pd deposition were investigated via in situ electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance(EQCM). The coulombic efficiencies are 84%, 93% and 95% for Pd deposition at 0.3, 0.2 and 0.1 V(vs. SCE), respectively. The results of chronoamperometric measurements show that the Pd deposition proceeded by an instantaneous nucleation(at 0.3 V) or progressive nucleation(at 0.2 and 0.1 V) in a three-dimensional(3D) growth mode. The catalytic activity of Pd-based electrocatalyst for ethanol oxidation was characterized in an alkaline solution. It was found that the highest mass activity for ethanol oxidation on Pd-based electrocatalyst is 1.8×104 A/(g Pd) deposited at 0.3 V for 5 s.

Towards Vaporized Molecular Discrimination: A Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) Sensor System Using Cobalt‐Containing Mesoporous Graphitic Carbon

A recent study on nanoporous carbon based materials (J. Am. Chem. Soc.­ 2012 , 134, 2864) showed that the presence of abundant graphitized sp² carbon species in the frameworks led to higher affinity for aromatic hydrocarbons than their aliphatic analogues. Herein, improved understanding of the sensitive and selective detection of aromatic substances by using mesoporous carbon (MPC)‐based materials, combined with a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensor system, was obtained. MPCs were synthesized by direct carbonization of mesoporous polymers prepared from resol through a soft templating approach with Pluronic F127. The carbon‐based frameworks can be graphitized through the addition of a cobalt source to the precursor solution, according to the catalytic activity of the cobalt nanoparticles formed during the carbonization process. From the Raman data, the degree of the graphitization was clearly increased by increasing the cobalt content and elevating the carbonization temperature. From a QCM study, it was proved that the highly graphitized MPCs exhibited a higher affinity for aromatic hydrocarbons than their aliphatic analogues. By increasing the degree of graphitization in the carbon‐based pore walls, the MPCs showed both larger adsorption uptake and faster sensor response towards toxic benzene and toluene vapors.
