A novel UV-sensitive photopolymerization system with microgel matrix

A series of crosslinked microgels with quaternary ammonium ions on the surface was prepared by quaternization with N,N-dimethylbenzylamine in the presence of microgel particles prepared by emulsion copolymerization of styrene (St), chloromethylstyrene (CMS) and divinylbenzene (DVB). Microgels with diameters in the range of 15–100 nm were successfully dispersed in organic solvents such as 2-methoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethanol without an emulsifier. A photosensitive layer was formed by coating a photosensitive solution on a grained aluminum plate. The solution was comprised of the microgels, the multifunctional monomer and standard ultraviolet (UV) photoinitiators, such as 2,4-diethyl thioxanthone (DETX)/ethyl p-di-ethylaminobenzoate (EPA). This gave a heterogeneous photosensitive layer which produced good polymer patterns after exposure to UV light followed by development in tap water. A typical polymer layer, consisting of the microgels (poly(styrene-co-N,N-dimethylbenzylvinyl-benzylammonium chloride-co-divinylbenzene)), DETX/EPA, and the multifunctional acrylate monomers, exhibited photosensitivity of 0.06 mJ/cm² for UV light. This sensitivity is much higher than the homogeneous photopolymerization system with an analogous composition.     

Nickel-Catalyzed Amination of (Hetero)aryl Halides Facilitated by a Catalytic Pyridinium Additive

An efficient and operationally simple Ni-catalyzed amination protocol has been developed. This methodology features a simple Ni^II salt, an organic base and catalytic amounts of both a pyridinium additive and Zn metal. A diverse number of (hetero)aryl halides were coupled successfully with primary and secondary alkyl amines, and anilines in good to excellent yields. Similarly, benzophenone imine gave the corresponding N-arylation product in an excellent yield.     

Raman study of structural relaxation and boson peak in amorphous films of adamantane

Low-frequency Raman scattering was used to study amorphous solid films of adamantane, a globular non-polar hydrocarbon molecule. As evidenced by its spectral characteristics this type of disorder is different from the orientational disorder found in the room temperature plastic phase by the absence of the translational order as well. This gives rise to the boson peak related to acoustic phonons which gradually disappears upon heating with simultaneous emerging of the phonon line at 50 cm-1 which characterizes the low-temperature ordered phase of adamantane. Adamantane dynamics resembles that of C60 fullerene although not in the same temperature range. All this makes adamantane an attractive system that could serve as a practical reference in molecular simulation studies of the glassy phase of model fluids.     

Determination of synthetic food dyes by capillary electrophoresis

A method for the determination of synthetic tar dyes used as food additives using capillary electrophoresis with photodiode-array detection was investigated. The dyes Erythrosine (R-3), Phloxine (R-104), Rose Bengal (R-105), Acid Red (R-106), Amaranth (R-2), New Coccine (R-102) and Allura Red AC (R-40) were separated on a capillary column (50 cm × 75 μm I.D.) and identified from the absorbance spectra of each peak. The electrophoresis buffer used was a mixture of 25 mM sodium phosphate buffer and 25 mM sodium borate buffer (1:1) (pH 8.0) containing 10 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Substitution of β-cyclodextrin for SDS in the electrolyte buffer was effective for the separation of R-2 and R-102. This modified method could be employed as an additional assay method for these two dyes.     

Breakdown of the quantum Hall effect due to electron heating

The breakdown of the Quantum Hall effect observed on GaAs-AlGaAs samples is quantitatively explained in terms of peculiar electron-heating characteristic to the Quantum Hall regime. The current instability originates from an S-shaped current-voltage characteristic. Further, exponential dependence of the dissipative conductivity on the electric field, observed in the lower field range, is interpreted as a consequence of the finite size of the wave function of localized states in the presence of potential gradient.     

Steady State Thermodynamics

The present paper reports our attempt to search for a new universal framework in nonequilibrium physics. We propose a thermodynamic formalism that is expected to apply to a large class of nonequilibrium steady states including a heat conducting fluid, a sheared fluid, and an electrically conducting fluid. We call our theory steady state thermodynamics (SST) after Oono and Paniconi's original proposal. The construction of SST is based on a careful examination of how the basic notions in thermodynamics should be modified in nonequilibrium steady states. We define all thermodynamic quantities through operational procedures which can be (in principle) realized experimentally. Based on SST thus constructed, we make some nontrivial predictions, including an extension of Einstein's formula on density fluctuation, an extension of the minimum work principle, the existence of a new osmotic pressure of a purely nonequilibrium origin, and a shift of coexistence temperature. All these predictions may be checked experimentally to test SST for its quantitative validity.     

Composition of Satureja kitaibelii essential oil and its antimicrobial activity

The composition of the essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation from the aerial parts of Satureja kitaibelii from Rtanj mountain (Serbia), collected during three years, was studied. Thirty-nine components were identified in each sample of S. kitaibelii essential oil, representing about 87% of the oils. p-Cymene was the most dominant compound in all three oils (27.9%, 14.7% and 24.4%, respectively). The simple formulation of a lozenge with 0.2% of S. kitaibelii essential oil was prepared and the antimicrobial activity of the essential oil and the lozenge with essential oil was tested using a broth microdilution assay. Both essential oil and lozenge possessed strong antimicrobial activity with MIC values of 0.10-25 microg/mL, and 0.97-15.6 mg/mL, respectively.
