Temperature dependence of the Raman spectra of individual carbon nanotubes

Resonant Raman scattering (RRS) spectra of individual carbon nanotubes on a SiO2 substrate have been investigated first in the temperature range of 100-600 K (Phys. Rev. B 2002, 66, 115411). It was revealed by the intensity abnormality of the radial breathing mode (RBM) that the carbon nanotubes have a temperature-dependent density of electronic states. This means that the previously reported temperature coefficients of RBM of carbon nanotubes are smaller than their "real" ones for the bulk samples of single- or double-walled carbon nanotubes. Comparatively, the G line of individual nanotubes shows no observable difference relative to the bulk samples.     

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering from the individual metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes

A new experimental technique has been presented to investigate the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) on “individual and untouched” single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) deposited onto gold or silver film-covered substrate through a direct CVD method. It was found that the radial breathing mode for SERS shows a narrower linewidth than the normal Raman spectroscopy (NRS). Relative to NRS, the SERS spectra also revealed a preferable contribution to some metallic component of the G line. However no obvious difference for D and G′ between SERS and NRS has been revealed, which is different from the previous results on bulk SWNT samples.

X-ray spectra induced in highly charged 40Arq+ interacting with Au surface

By use of optical spectrum technology, the spectra of X-ray induced by highly charged 40Arq+ ions interacting with Au surface have been studied. The results show that the argon Kα X-ray were emitted from the hollow atoms formed below the surface. There is a process of multi-electron exciting in neutralization of the Ar16+ion, with electronic configuration 1s2 in its ground state below the solid surface. The yield of the projectile Kα X-ray is related to its initial electronic configuration, and the yield of the target X-ray is related to the projectile kinetic energy.     

Preparation of gel‐silica/ammonium polyphosphate core‐shell flame retardant and properties of polyurethane composites

A novel intumescent gel‐silica/ammonium polyphosphate core‐shell flame retardant (MCAPP), which contains silicon, phosphorus, and nitrogen, has been prepared by in situ polymerization. The structure of MCAPP was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The properties of MCAPP were investigated by water solubility, hydrophilicity, and morphological determination. The flame retardancy and thermal stability of polyurethane (PU) composite with MCAPP were evaluated by limiting oxygen index (LOI), UL‐94 test, cone calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results showed that MCAPP could decrease the heat release rate (HRR) and increase the thermal stability of PU materials greatly. Finally, water‐resistant properties of PU/FR composites were also studied. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Polymerization of styrene in alcohol/water mediated by a macro‐RAFT agent of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) trithiocarbonate: From homogeneous to heterogeneous RAFT polymerization

The reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization of styrene in alcohol/water mixture mediated with the poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) trithiocarbonate macro‐RAFT agent (PNIPAM‐TTC) is studied and compared with the general RAFT dispersion polymerization in the presence of a small molecular RAFT agent. Both the homogeneous/quasi‐homogeneous polymerization before particle nucleation and the heterogeneous polymerization after particle nucleation are involved in the PNIPAM‐TTC‐mediated RAFT polymerization, and the two‐stage increase in the molecular weight (M_n) and nanoparticle size of the synthesized block copolymer is found. In the initial homogeneous/quasi‐homogeneous polymerization, the M_n and nanoparticle size slowly increase with monomer conversion, whereas the M_n and particle size quickly increase in the subsequent heterogeneous RAFT polymerization, which is much different from those in the general RAFT dispersion polymerization. Besides, the PNIPAM‐TTC‐mediated RAFT polymerization runs much faster than the general RAFT dispersion polymerization. This study is anticipated to be helpful to understand the polymer chain extension through RAFT polymerization under dispersion conditions. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
