High Performance Size Exclusion Chromatography Using Porous Glass Packing Materials

Abstract

Porous glass packing materials of average particle diameter 5 μm have been packed into a 7.2 mm i.d. x 25 cm column by viscousslurry packing parocedure. Average pore diameters of porous glasses were 170 Â, 500 Â, 1000 A, and 2000 A. The numbers of theoretical plates were between 7000 and 8000 per a column for porous glasses of pore diameters of 170, 500, and 1000 A, and 5000 for that of 2000 A. The retention volumes of narrow molecular weight-distribution polystyrene standards have been determined using tetrahydrofuran as mobile phase for the construction of calibration curves. Separations of polystyrene over molecular weight ranges of 1000 and 4,000,000 have been obtained by combining all four porous glass columns in series. Molecular weight averages of NBS 706 polystyrene have been measured and compared with the values determined with polystyrene gel columns. Both results were equivalent to the manufacturer's data. Porous glasses thus appear to be a useful packing materials for HPSEC.     

Photochemical synthesis of copper nanoparticles in aqueous polystyrene dispersions

Photochemical deposition of copper nanoparticles onto polystyrene surface under monochromatic (λ 254 nm) and unfiltered irradiation was studied. The kinetic parameters of this process depending on the concentration of copper(II) coordination compound and the size of polystyrene microspheres were determined. A procedure was tested for the preparation of monodisperse copper nanoparticles from colloidal copper chemically synthesized in ethylene glycol matrix in the presence of polystyrene with a microsphere size of 100 nm.     

Surface-anisotropic polystyrene spheres by electroless deposition

Surfaces of sulfate-terminated polystyrene microspheres are anisotropically modified with silver nanoparticles covering 20-50% of the sphere surface using electroless deposition. A PDMS templating method is employed. Silver nanoparticles are found to deposit uniformly onto the exposed sphere surfaces. The deposition is diffusion-controlled and the nanoparticles adhere strongly to the polystyrene particles despite extensive exposure to ultrasonication. Silver content is confirmed by EDAX analysis. The final silver coverage is controlled via the PDMS pre-curing conditions.

Novel one-step route for synthesizing CdS/polystyrene nanocomposite hollow spheres

CdS/polystyrene nanocomposite hollow spheres with diameters between 240 and 500 nm were synthesized under ambient conditions by a novel microemulsion method in which the polymerization of styrene and the formation of CdS nanoparticles were initiated by gamma-irradiation. The product was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which show the walls of the hollow spheres are porous and composed of polystyrene containing homogeneously dispersed CdS nanoparticles. The quantum-confined effect of the CdS/polystyrene nanocomposite hollow spheres is confirmed by the ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) and photoluminescent (PL) spectra. We propose that the walls of these nanocomposite hollow spheres originate from the simultaneous synthesis of polystyrene and CdS nanoparticles at the interface of microemulsion droplets. This novel method is expected to produce various inorganic/polymer nanocomposite hollow spheres with potential applications in the fields of materials science and biotechnology.     

Formation and Properties of Sol-Gel Films and Glasses with Ultrafine Metal and Semiconductor Particles

A novel method of fabrication of silica-based sol-gel films and glasses containing small semiconductor particles was developed. A series of films and glasses with nanoparticles of copper chalcogenides (CuS, Cu₂Se, CuInS₂) and metal particles (Cu) were fabricated through the chemical transformation of precursors incorporated into a sol-gel derived matrix. The properties of the nanoparticles studied by means of XRD, XPS, TEM and optical spectroscopy are provided both by size effects and the chemical nature of surface states and can be controlled at different steps of chemical treatment.     

Surface functionalization and characterization of magnetic polystyrene microbeads

A new approach to the surface functionalization of magnetic polystyrene microbeads with chloroacetyl chloride in the presence of aluminum chloride was reported. Composite microbeads consisting of polymer-coated iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared by spraying suspension polymerization. Functional chloride groups were introduced onto the surface of magnetic polystyrene microbeads by surface chemical reaction without destroying the magnetite nanoparticles within the microbeads. First, a complex was synthesized by a reaction between aluminum chloride and chloroacetyl chloride. Then, the complex was added dropwise to the solution of magnetic polystyrene microbeads, and a surface acylation reaction between complex and polystyrene microbeads was carried out. Subsequently, the amino groups were coupled to the magnetic microbeads via an ammonolysis reaction between ethylenediamine and chloride groups on the acylated magnetic polystyrene microbeads. The chemical composition, surface functional groups, and magnetism of the magnetic polystyrene microbeads before and after surface functionalization were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnetometry. The results showed that the surface functionalization reaction had little impact on the magnetism of the microbeads. The content of surface amino groups on the magnetic polystyrene microbeads was found to be 0.2 mmol/g. An affinity dye, Cibacron Blue F3G-A (CB), was then immobilized to prepare a magnetic affinity adsorbent. It was confirmed from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy spectra that the CB molecules were covalently coupled on the magnetic microbeads.     

Synthesis and plasmonic properties of silver and gold nanoshells on polystyrene cores of different size and of gold–silver core–shell nanostructures

Simple methods of preparing silver and gold nanoshells on the surfaces of monodispersed polystyrene microspheres of different sizes as well as of silver nanoshells on free-standing gold nanoparticles are presented. The plasmon resonance absorption spectra of these materials are presented and compared to predictions of extended Mie scattering theory. Both silver and gold nanoshells were grown on polystyrene microspheres with diameters ranging from 188 to 543 nm. The commercially available, initially carboxylate-terminated polystyrene spheres were reacted with 2-aminoethanethiol hydrochloride (AET) to yield thiol-terminated microspheres to which gold nanoparticles were then attached. Reduction of silver nitrate or gold hydroxide onto these gold-decorated microspheres resulted in increasing coverage of silver or gold on the polystyrene core. The nanoshells were characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and UV–vis spectroscopy. By varying the core size of the polystyrene particles and the amount of metal (silver or gold) reduced onto them, the surface plasmon resonance of the nanoshell could be tuned across the visible and the near-infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Necklace-like chain aggregate structures of gold core–silver shell nanoparticles were formed by reducing silver nitrate onto free citrate-gold nanoparticles. The plasmon resonance absorption of these nanoparticles could also be systematically tuned across the visible spectrum.
