The objective of the present article was to study the thermal degradation behavior and flame retardancy of flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) composites containing TiO2/SO2?4 solid superacid because of its strong catalytic ability for esterification and dehydration. The TiO2/SO2?4 solid superacid was synthesized by using precipitation immersion method, and its structure was investigated by X-ray diffraction. As expected, the value of limiting oxygen index for PVC/Sb2O3/(TiO2/SO2?4) composite was 32.5% and the char yield of PVC/Sb2O3/(TiO2/SO2?4) composite was significantly improved compared to neat PVC in thermogravimetry tests. In addition, the peak heat release rate and smoke production rate of PVC/Sb2O3/(TiO2/SO2?4) decreased by 14% and 42%, respectively, compared with neat PVC. Moreover, the results of cone calorimetry tests and electron micrograph of char residue showed that the char yield of TiO2/SO2?4 was enhanced, resulting in a strong char layer structure with outstanding fire retardance cone. In conclusion, the results of this work showed that the addition of solid superacid promoted the decomposition and dehydration of PVC, which formed a compact and continuous char layer on the surface of the material. Hence, the study provides a new perspective for producing composites with excellent flame retardancy and smoke suppression properties of PVC.
The electronic singlet vertical excited states of photosynthetic reaction center (PSRC) in Rhodopseudomonas (Rps.) viridis were investigated by ZINDO and INDO/S methods. The effects of the interactions of pigment-pigment and pigment-protein on
the electronic excitations were examined. The calculation results showed that the interactions of pigment-pigment and pigment-protein
play an important role in reasonably assigning the experimental absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectra of PSRC in
Rps. virids. By comparing the theoretically computed excited states with the experimental absorption and CD spectra, satisfactory assignments
of the experimental spectroscopic peaks were achieved. 相似文献
Determination of enantiomeric purity is most often done under overload conditions, which leads to deformed peaks. In general, the best resolutions are obtained when the small peak appears before the large peak in the electropherogram. To be able to determine the R(+)-impurity in the S(-)-form as well as the S(-)-impurity in the R(+)-form the elution orders have to be reversed. The present paper describes reversal of enantiomeric elution order for the basic analyte propranolol and the acidic analyte ibuprofen. For propranolol, a charged heptakis-(6-sulfo)-beta-cyclodextrin (CD) is used in the background electrolyte. For ibuprofen, a mix of the charged heptakis-(6-sulfo)-beta-CD and the uncharged heptakis-(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-beta-CD is used in the background electrolyte. The use of a coated capillary and reversal of the polarity shift the elution order, buffer composition is unchanged in both cases. The enantiomers of propranolol and ibuprofen are well separated on both the coated and uncoated capillaries. Detection limits of enantiomer impurities are investigated using spiked samples of both propranolol and ibuprofen. 相似文献
Dispersion of MoO3, NiO, ZnO on rutile TiO2 with low specific surface area was studied with Mercury Porosimeter, SEM, XPS and Ammonia Extraction method. The dispersion thresholds of MoO3, NiO, ZnO on three rutile TiO2 carriers were obtained with XPS, and com-pared with those on anatase TiO2 with high specific surf are area. Ammonia Extraction method was used to identify the surface oxide species interarting with support surface in different strength and it was found that the proportions of oxides that can not be extracted by ammonia extraction are different for MoO3, NiO and ZnO which are supported on rutile TiO2. 相似文献
A series of chiral aromatic imides and diimides were synthesized and their electrochemical, absorption, fluorescent, and chiroptical properties were examined for their potential application as molecular chiroptical switches. These compounds exhibit strong UV-vis absorptions, and can be electrochemically reduced to radical anions that absorb in the near infrared (NIR) region. Further reduction to the dianionic states results in new absorptions in the visible region. The changes in circular dichroism upon redox switching were apparent in the UV-vis region but were absent in the NIR region. 相似文献
Three lanthanide coordination polymers were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. [Pr2(mBDC)3(phen)(H2O)]n·0.5nH2O (1) (mBDC=isophthalate, phen=1,10-phenanthroline) exhibits two kinds of metal environments (coordination numbers 7 and 8). In complex 1, mBDC ligands adopt the tetradentate (bridging and bridging) coordination mode and connect Pr ions into an undulating layer, and a 3D supramolecular structure is formed via hydrogen bonds between adjacent layers. [Tb4(mBDC)6(phen)]n (2) has three types of metal environments (coordination numbers 6, 7 and 8) and is composed of a 3D network formed by mBDC linking Tb ions via tetradentate (bridging and bridging) and pentadentate (bridging/chelating and bridging) coordination modes. There are two kinds of small quadrilateral channels along the a-axis. [Er4(mBDC)6(phen)]n (3) is isostructural to complex 2. 相似文献
An indirect procedure has been developed for the determination of trace amounts of silicon by atomic-absorption with carbon-rod electrothermal atomization. After dissolution, the silicon is extracted as silicomolybdic acid into a mixture of diethyl ether and pentan-1-ol (5 + 1). The co-extraction of excess of molybdate reagent is prevented by the addition of citrate, which also destroys phosphomolybdic and arsenomolybdic acids. The organic layer is washed with hydrochloric acid, mul quantities are transferred to the electrothermal atomizer and the molybdenum is measured. The method has been applied to analysis of several steels. 相似文献
