Preparation of hollow carbon nanospheres at low temperature via new reaction route

Hollow carbon nanospheres were obtained at 200 °C via a new reaction route, by using magnesium, hexachloroethane and aluminum trichloride as starting materials and benzene as solvent. The products were characterized with X-ray diffraction pattern, transmission electron microscope, high-resolution transmission electron microscope images and Raman spectrum. The reaction conditions are easy to be maintained and controlled. They may provide a new method to produce other carbonaceous materials. A possible mechanism of reaction was proposed.     

Properties and morphology of recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate)/bisphenol a polycarbonate/poly(styrene‐b‐(ethylene‐co‐butylene)‐b‐styrene) blends by low‐temperature solid‐state extrusion

Among the various methods available for recycling plastics waste, blending technology is a straightforward and relatively simple method for recycling. In this paper, a new blending technology, low‐temperature solid‐state extrusion, was discussed. Several recycled poly(terephthalate ethylene)/bisphenol a polycarbonate/poly(styrene‐b‐(ethylene‐co‐butylene)‐b‐styrene) blends (R‐PET/PC/SEBS blends) have been prepared by this technology. The results show that thermal and hydrolytic degradation of R‐PET is improved when extruding temperature was between the glass transition temperature (T_g) and cold crystallization temperature (T_cc). Elongation at break and notched impact strength were increased evidently, from 15.9% to 103.6, and from 8.6 kJ/m² to 20.4 kJ/m², respectively. The appropriate rotating speed of screws was between 100 and 150 rpm. At the same time, the appropriate rotating speed of the screws brings a suitable shear viscosity ratio of R‐PET and PC, which is of advantage to blending of R‐PET and PC together with SEBS. Dispersion of minor phase, PC and SEBS, became finer and smaller, to about 1 µm. Chain extender, Methylenediphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) can react with the end‐carboxyl group and end‐hydroxyl group of R‐PET. FT‐IR spectra testified that the reactions have been happened in the extruding process. A chain extending reaction not only increased the molecular weight of PET and PC, but also can synthesize PET‐g‐PC copolymer to act as a reactive compatilizer. An SEM micrograph shows that a micro‐fiber structure of PET was formed in the blend sample. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Correlation of supercritical-fluid extraction recoveries with supercritical-fluid chromatographic retention data: A fundamental study

The possibility of using supercritical-fluid chromatographic retention data for examining the effects of operational parameters, such as pressure and flow rate, on the extraction characteristics in supercritical-fluid extraction (SFE) was investigated. A model was derived for calculating the extraction efficiency in SFE from retention data and peak shapes measured in supercritical-fluid chromatography (SFC). By performing the SFC experiments at the same pressure and temperature as the SFE extractions using the SFE extraction cell as the SFC column, an accurate prediction of extraction efficiencies could be made. Finally, the effects of matrix composition and analyte concentration on extraction efficiency were studied.     

Global existence and uniqueness to the Cauchy problem of the BGK equation with infinite energy

The Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook model of the Boltzmann equation is of great importance in the kinetic theory of rarefied gases. Various existence and uniqueness results have been built under the boundedness of energy. In this paper, we will establish several global existence results to the Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook equation with infinite energy. It heavily relies on a new moments lemma and a new existence and uniqueness theorem of weighted velocity‐spatial L^∞ solutions. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Flow-injection chemiluminescence determination of polyphenols using luminol-NaIO4-gold nanoparticles system

It was found that gold nanoparticles with different sizes could enhance the chemiluminescence (CL) of the luminol-NaIO4 system in alkaline solution. The most intensive CL signals were obtained with gold nanoparticles in diameter of 4 nm and the CL intensity increased linearly with the concentration of gold nanoparticles. The studies of UV-vis spectra, CL spectra, effects of concentrations of luminol and periodate solution were carried out to explore the CL enhancement mechanism. Catechol, hydroquinone and resorcinol were found to inhibit the CL signals of the luminol-NaIO4 reaction catalyzed by gold nanoparticles, which made it applicable for the determination of these polyphenols. Under the selected experimental conditions, the detection limits (3sigma) were in the range of 2.1 x 10(-9) to 1.0 x 10(-10) g ml(-1), the relative standard deviation (R.S.D., n=11) were in the range of 1.7-2.9%. The method has been successfully applied to the determination of catechol in tap water and synthesized samples with satisfactory results.     

Supramolecular Copolymerization as a Strategy to Control the Stability of Self‐Assembled Nanofibers

A major challenge in supramolecular polymerization is controlling the stability of the polymers formed, that is, controlling the rate of monomer exchange in the equilibrium between monomer and polymer. The exchange dynamics of supramolecular polymers based on benzene‐1,3,5‐tricarboxamide (BTA) can be regulated by copolymerizing molecules with dendronized (dBTA) and linear (nBTA) ethylene glycol‐based water‐soluble side chains. Whereas nBTAs form long nanofibers in water, dBTAs do not polymerize, forming instead small spherical aggregates. The copolymerization of the two BTAs results in long nanofibers. The exchange dynamics of both the BTA monomers in the copolymer are significantly slowed down in the mixed systems, leading to a more stable copolymer, while the morphology and spectroscopic signature of the copolymers are identical to that of nBTA homopolymer. This copolymerization is the supramolecular counterpart of styrene/ maleic anhydride copolymerization.     

On the Cauchy Problem for the Inelastic Boltzmann Equation with External Force

In this paper, the Cauchy problem for the inelastic Boltzmann equation with external force is considered for near vacuum data. Under the assumptions on the bicharacteristic generated by external force which can be arbitrarily large, we prove the global existence of mild solution for initial data small enough with respect to the sup norm with exponential weight by using the contraction mapping theorem. Furthermore, we prove the uniform L ¹ stability of the mild solution following from the exponential decay estimate and the Gronwall’s inequality for the case of soft potentials.     

Preparation, characterization, and optical, electrochemical property research of CdS/PAM nanocomposites

CdS/PAM nanocomposites have been successfully synthesized in situ via a ultrasound-assisted route under ambient condition, employing CdCl(2) and Na(2)S(2)O(3) as Cd(2+) and S(2-) ion sources and acrylamide (AM) and (NH(4))(2)S(2)O(8) as organic monomers and initiating reagents, respectively. The results from X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) analysis and the IR spectrum of the final product showed the formation of CdS nanoparticles and the polymerization of AM monomers. SEM observations showed that the CdS/PAM nanocomposites could film on the quartz substrate and some holes in which many nanorods regularly arranged distributed on the film. The UV-vis absorption and PL spectra of CdS/PAM nanocomposites obviously differed from those of CdS nanoparticles prepared under the same conditions due to the presence of PAM. The electrochemical research showed that CdS/PAM nanocomposites had a stronger ability to promote electron transfers between Hb and the Au electrode than CdS nanoparticles prepared under the same conditions. A possible formation mechanism was also suggested based on the results of experiments.
