Effect of solid lubricant particles on the tribological properties of PTFE composites lubricated with natural seawater

An orthogonal test was used to design different mixture ratios of molybdenum disulfide(MoS₂), graphite, and SiO₂ particles, which were filled with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composite. MoS₂-, graphite-, and SiO₂-modified PTFE was obtained by pressing and sintering, and the processing parameters were determined using progressive studies and experiments. The friction and wear properties of different PTFE composites lubricated with natural seawater were analyzed using an MMU-5G wear tester. A laser scanning confocal microscope was employed to examine the morphological characteristics of the worn surface. Moreover, the influence of particle proportions on the tribological property of composites was analyzed. Results show that the addition of SiO₂, MoS₂, and graphite can increase the bearing capacity, improve the wear resistance, reduce the friction coefficient, and increase the self-lubricating ability of the PTFE matrix.

以不同烷基取代的二噻吩并吡咯(DTP)为π桥,连接吲哒省并二噻吩(IDT)中间单元和氰基茚酮(IC)或二氟代氰基茚酮(2F-IC)末端基团,设计并合成了6个窄带隙的非富勒烯受体材料。 其中,IDTDTP-C₂C₂-H和IDTDTP-C₂C₂-F中的DTP单元以1-乙基丙基为侧链,IDTDTP-C₆C₆-H和IDTDTP-C₆C₆-F中的DTP单元以1-己基庚基为侧链,IDTDTP-C₁₂-H和IDTDTP-C₁₂-F中的DTP单元以十二烷基为侧链。 6个分子均具有较窄的光学带隙(1.37~1.44 eV)。 相比于以IC为末端基团的分子(IDTDTP-C₂C₂-H、IDTDTP-C₆C₆-H和IDTDTP-C₁₂-H),由于氟原子的拉电子效应,以2F-IC为末端基团的分子(IDTDTP-C₂C₂-F、IDTDTP-C₆C₆-F和IDTDTP-C₁₂-F)具有红移的吸收光谱,以及更低的最高分子占有轨道能级(HOMO)和最低分子空轨道(LUMO)能级。 以宽带隙聚合物聚[2,6-(4,8-双(5-(2-乙基己基))噻吩-2-基)-苯并[1,2-b:4,5-b']二噻吩-alt-5,5-(1',3'-二-2-噻吩)-5',7'-双(2-乙基己基)-苯并[1',2'-c:4',5'-c']二噻吩-4,8-二酮](PBDB-T)为给体材料,制备了有机太阳能电池器件。 PBDB-T:IDTDTP-C₆C₆-F共混薄膜具有较高且更平衡的空穴/电子迁移率,以及良好的形貌,基于PBDB-T:IDTDTP-C₆C₆-F的有机太阳能电池获得了6.94%的能量转换效率,开路电压为0.86 V,短路电流密度为13.56 mA/cm²,填充因子为59.5%。

Lanthanide‐Catalyzed Selective Addition of Diethyl Phosphite to Chalcones

Lanthanide‐catalyzed addition of diethyl phosphite with chalcones was achieved under mild conditions. The reaction exhibited good product selectivity using different catalysts. γ‐Oxophosphonates were obtained in high yields in the reactions catalyzed by Yb(OAr)₃(THF)₂, while those catalyzed by [(Me₃Si)₂N]₃La(μ‐Cl)Li(THF)₃ afforded 1,2‐oxaphospholane‐5‐phosphonates as the main products in moderate to good yields. This methodology provides facile and practical approaches to the corresponding organophosphorus compounds with biological interest.     

Product Identification and Mass Spectrometric Analysis of n-Butane and i-Butane Pyrolysis at Low Pressure

The pyrolysis of n-butane and i-butane at low pressure was investigated from 823-1823 K in an electrically heated flow reactor using synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoionization mass spectrometry. More than 20 species, especially several radicals and isomers, were detected and identified from the measurements of photoionization efficiency (PIE) spectra. Based on the mass spectrometric analysis, the characteristics of n-butane and i-butane pyrolysis were discussed, which provided experimental evidences for the discussion of decomposition pathways of butane isomers. It is concluded that the isomeric structures of n-butane and i-butane have strong influence on their main decomposition pathways, and lead to dramatic differences in their mass spectra and PIE spectra such as the different dominant products and isomeric structures of butene products. Furthermore, compared with n-butane, i-butane can produce strong signals of benzene at low temperature in its pyrolysis due to the enhanced formation of benzene precursors like propargyl and C4 species, which provides experimental clues to explain the higher sooting tendencies of iso-alkanes than n-alkanes.     

Rational Design of Specific Recognition Molecules for Simultaneously Monitoring of Endogenous Polysulfide and Hydrogen Sulfide in the Mouse Brain

A biosensor was created for the simultaneous monitoring of endogenous H₂S_n and H₂S in mouse brains and exploring their roles in activation of the TRPA1 channel under two types of brain disease models: ischemia and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Based on DFT calculations and electrochemical measurements, two probes, 3,4‐bis((2‐fluoro‐5‐nitrobenzoyl)oxy)‐benzoic acid (M_PS‐1) and N‐(4‐(2,5‐dinitrophenoxy) phenyl)‐5‐(1, 2‐dithiolan‐3‐yl)pentanamide (M_HS‐1), were synthesized for specific recognition of H₂S_n and H₂S. Through co‐assembly of the two probes at the mesoporous gold film with good anti‐biofouling ability and electrocatalytic activity, this microsensor showed high selectivity for H₂S_n and H₂S against potential biological interferences. The biosensor can simultaneously determine the concentration of H₂S_n from 0.2 to 50 μm , as well as that of H₂S from 0.2 to 40 μm . The expression of TRPA1 protein positively correlated with levels of H₂S_n under both ischemia and AD.     

Hydralazine derivative of aldehyde: A new type of [M − H]+ ion formed in electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

Hydralazine has been widely employed in the development of drugs, derivatization reagents, and ligands. In the present work, we reported a new type of dehydrogenated ion [M ? H]⁺ that was produced from the hydralazine derivative of hexanal in electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI‐MS). The formation of [M ? H]⁺ ions in the ESI‐MS was found to be independent on the mobile phase composition of the liquid chromatography and ESI source parameters. A series of hydralazine derivatives of aldehyde were investigated to confirm this phenomenon. The results showed that hydralazine derivatives of aldehydes that contained an sp³ hybridization carbon with a hydrogen at the α‐position of aldehydes could form the unexpected [M ? H]⁺ ions, whereas hydralazine derivative of acetone could only generate [M + H]⁺ ion in the ESI‐MS. We proposed the possible formation mechanism of [M ? H]⁺ ion for the hydralazine derivatives of aldehydes: the [M ? H]⁺ ion was possibly formed by the loss a hydrogen molecule (H₂) from the protonated ion [M + H]⁺. The results obtained from density functional theory (DFT) calculations supported this proposed formation mechanism of [M ? H]⁺ ion.
