The influence of concentration and supersaturation ratio of CuI·HI on CuI crystal growth by decomplexation method

The fundamental role of solubility and supersaturation of solute for crystal growth from solution has been widely realized. In order to optimize the process of CuI crystal growth by CuI·HI decomplexation in HI acid, the solubility and supersaturation curves of CuI in HI‐H₂O mixed solvent were measured, and then a modified concentration programming scheme was designed, which could grow high quality CuI single crystals of 2.5 mm on edge successfully. In this scheme, the concentration distribution of CuI·HI complex and HI acid in silica gel along their diffused direction were measured with spectrophotometer, and the evolution of CuI·HI complex supersaturation ratio was analysed. It was found that the excess CuI·HI complex concentration would lead to the high supersaturation ratio and the formation CuI dendrites. The condition for regular CuI single crystal growth in silica gel was measured as follow: when the crystal nuclei appears, the CuI·HI complex concentration in HI‐H₂O solvent should be kept in the range of 0.033–0.050 mol/L and its corresponding supersaturation ratio is 1.24–1.45, and then they should be respectively declined to a range of 0.025–0.033 mol/L and 1.14–1.26 at the stage of crystal growth. The results may provide a useful clue for further improvement of the experimental scheme. (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Energy transfer of highly vibrationally excited biphenyl

The energy transfer between Kr atoms and highly vibrationally excited, rotationally cold biphenyl in the triplet state was investigated using crossed-beam/time-of-flight mass spectrometer/time-sliced velocity map ion imaging techniques. Compared to the energy transfer of naphthalene, energy transfer of biphenyl shows more forward scattering, less complex formation, larger cross section for vibrational to translational (V→T) energy transfer, smaller cross section for translational to vibrational and rotational (T→VR) energy transfer, larger total collisional cross section, and more energy transferred from vibration to translation. Significant increase in the large V→T energy transfer probabilities, termed supercollisions, was observed. The difference in the energy transfer of highly vibrationally excited molecules between rotationally cold naphthalene and rotationally cold biphenyl is very similar to the difference in the energy transfer of highly vibrationally excited molecules between rotationally cold naphthalene and rotationally hot naphthalene. The low-frequency vibrational modes with out-of-plane motion and rotationlike wide-angle motion are attributed to make the energy transfer of biphenyl different from that of naphthalene.     

Studies on core–shell structural nano-micelles based on star block copolymer of poly(lactide) and poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate)

Inorganic/polymer hybrid star-shaped block copolymer nano-micelles were synthesized. In the synthetic route, multi-hydroxyl polyhedral oligomeric silsequioxane(POSS-(OH)₃₂) was employed as the starting molecule to initiate ring-opening polymerization of d,l-lactide. 2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate was found to polymerize at the end of polylactic acid chains, following mechanism of atom transfer radical polymerization. The well-defined star block copolymer core–shell nano-micelles were finally obtained. The structures of the copolymer and the micelles were characterized extensively. The micelles exhibited a regular spherical shape with an average diameter of 170 nm which was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy and dynamic laser scattering. The sizes of both the core and the shell were controlled by adjusting the feed ratios during the syntheses. The micelles demonstrated pH- and temperature-sensitive behaviors.     

Comparative analysis of automotive paints by laser induced breakdown spectroscopy and nonparametric permutation tests

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has been investigated for the discrimination of automobile paint samples. Paint samples from automobiles of different makes, models, and years were collected and separated into sets based on the color, presence or absence of effect pigments and the number of paint layers. Twelve LIBS spectra were obtained for each paint sample, each an average of a five single shot “drill down” spectra from consecutive laser ablations in the same spot on the sample. Analyses by a nonparametric permutation test and a parametric Wald test were performed to determine the extent of discrimination within each set of paint samples. The discrimination power and Type I error were assessed for each data analysis method. Conversion of the spectral intensity to a log-scale (base 10) resulted in a higher overall discrimination power while observing the same significance level. Working on the log-scale, the nonparametric permutation tests gave an overall 89.83% discrimination power with a size of Type I error being 4.44% at the nominal significance level of 5%. White paint samples, as a group, were the most difficult to differentiate with the power being only 86.56% followed by 95.83% for black paint samples. Parametric analysis of the data set produced lower discrimination (85.17%) with 3.33% Type I errors, which is not recommended for both theoretical and practical considerations. The nonparametric testing method is applicable across many analytical comparisons, with the specific application described here being the pairwise comparison of automotive paint samples.     

Non‐parametric permutation test for the discrimination of float glass samples based on LIBS spectra

Laser‐induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) coupled with non‐parametric permutation based hypothesis testing is demonstrated to have good performance in discriminating float glass samples. This type of pairwise sample comparison is important in manufacturing process quality control, forensic science and other applications where determination of a match probability between two samples is required. Analysis of the pairwise comparisons between multiple LIBS spectra from a single glass sample shows that some assumptions required by parametric methods may not hold in practice, motivating the adoption of a non‐parametric permutation test. Without rigid distributional assumptions, the permutation test exhibits excellent discriminating power while holding the actual size of Type I error at the nominal level.

Studies on syntheses and dynamic swelling of pH-sensitive macroporous poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) hydrogels

A series of macroporous poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (PNIPAm-AA) hydrogels with different composition were synthesized by free-radical copolymerization in the presence of silica particles as a pore generating agent. The equilibrium swelling ratio, half swelling time and dynamic swelling kinetics of the copolymers previously soaked in different acidic buffer solutions were investigated at pH 7 at 25°C. Experimental results revealed that the swelling rate of the macroporous hydrogels was greatly increased compared to conventional hydrogels due to existence of the macroporous structures. It was found that the swelling history of previously putting in acidic solutions copolymers had strong influence on their dynamic swelling kinetics especially for the samples ranging in composition between 30 and 70 mol % of NIPAAm, whereas the swelling history had little influence on the equilibrium swelling ratio of copolymers. The swelling pattern exhibits sigmoid swelling curves. This is explained by an autocatalytic mechanism. The hydrogen bonding dissociation plays an important role in the dynamic swelling behavior.     

Electrochemical Oxidation of Epinephrine and Uric Acid at a Layered Double Hydroxide Film Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode and Its Application

Increasing attention has been paid to layered double hydroxide (LDH) film modified electrode attributing to its desirable properties for fabrication of electrochemical sensor. In this paper, the Zn‐Al LDH film modified glassy carbon electrode was characterized by electrochemical methods. The enhanced electrocatalytic currents and well‐separated potentials for epinephrine (EP) and uric acid (UA) were observed at the as‐prepared electrode. Under selected condition, the differential pulse voltammetry response of the modified electrode to EP (or UA) shows a linear concentration range of 0.5 μM to 0.3 mM (or 2 μM to 0.4 mM) in the presence of 10.0 μM UA (or 20.0 μM EP). At a signal‐to‐noise ratio of 3, the calculated limits of detection are 0.13 μM and 0.66 μM, respectively. The proposed method has been performed to successfully detect EP and UA in analysis of real samples, such as in EP injection solution and human urine samples.
