A post curing strategy toward the feasible covalent adaptable networks in polyacrylate latex films

The implementation of covalent adaptable networks (CANs) in general resin system is becoming attractive. In this work, we propose a simple post-curing strategy based on the core-shell structured acrylate latex for the achievement on both the improved general performance and the CANs characteristics in latex films. The building to the CANs was relied on the introduction of 4,4′-diaminophenyl disulfide as the curing agent, which cured the acetoacetoxy decorated shell polymer through the ketoamine reaction. The metathesis reaction of aromatic disulfides in the crosslinking segments enabled the thermally induced dynamic behavior of the network as revealed in the stress relaxation tests by comparison with other diamine crosslinking agents without the incorporation of disulfide. The synergism of the dynamic crosslinking of the shell polymer and static crosslinking in the core polymer contributed to the improved mechanical strength (15 MPa, strain% = 250%) and the suppressed water adsorption (~1% in 24 h of soaking) of the latex film, which exhibited above 90% of recovery in both strength and strain from a cut-off film damage within 1 h at 80°C. Moreover, the cured latex film could be recycled, and 75% of the mechanical performance was regained after three fragmentation-hot-pressing cycles. These, in addition with the feasible and environmental friendly characteristics, suggest a sustainable paradigm toward the smart thermosetting latex polymers.     

A Photoluminescent Ag10Cu6 Cluster Stablized by a PNNP Ligand and Phenylacetylides Selectively and Reversibly Senses Ammonia in Air and Water

A photoluminescent bimetallic cluster [Ag₁₀Cu₆(bdppthi)₂(C≡CPh)₁₂(MeOH)₂(H₂O)](ClO₄)₄ ( 1 , bdppthi=N,N’-bis(diphenylphosphanylmethyl)-tetrahydroimidazole} was synthesized from the PNNP type ligand bdppthi generated in-situ. Upon excitation at 365 nm, 1 exhibited strong phosphorescent emission at 630 nm, which was selectively quenched by NH₃ in air or water. The sensing of NH₃ was rapid and recoverable, with detection limits of 53 ppm (v/v) in N₂ and 21 μmol/L (0.36 ppm, w/w) for NH₃ ⋅ H₂O in water. Cluster 1 could potentially serve as a bifunctional chemical sensor for the efficient detection of ammonia in waste-gas and waste-water.

The Effect of the Spacer of Bis(biurea) Ligands on the Structure of A2L3‐type (A=anion) Phosphate Complexes

By tuning the length and rigidity of the spacer of bis(biurea) ligands L, three structural motifs of the A₂L₃ complexes (A represents anion, here orthophosphate PO₄^3?), namely helicate, mesocate, and mono‐bridged motif, have been assembled by coordination of the ligand to phosphate anion. Crystal structure analysis indicated that in the three complexes, each of the phosphate ions is coordinated by twelve hydrogen bonds from six surrounding urea groups. The anion coordination properties in solution have also been studied. The results further demonstrate the coordination behavior of phosphate ion, which shows strong tendency for coordination saturation and geometrical preference, thus allowing for the assembly of novel anion coordination‐based structures as in transition‐metal complexes.     

离子对反相高效液相色谱法同时测定尿液中复方α-酮酸片的5种有效成分

建立了同时测定尿液中复方α-酮酸片5种有效成分(消旋羟蛋氨酸钙(HMACa)、酮缬氨酸钙(KVCa)、消旋酮异亮氨酸钙(KILCa)、酮亮氨酸钙(KLCa)和酮苯丙氨酸钙(KPACa))的离子对反相高效液相色谱法。分别考察了离子对试剂浓度、缓冲盐浓度和流动相pH值等参数对分离情况的影响。最终采用Waters Symmetry C18色谱柱(250 mm×4.6 mm,5μm);以乙腈和含15 mmol/L四丁基氢氧化铵的20 mmol/L磷酸盐缓冲液(pH 7.0)为流动相进行梯度洗脱,流速为1.0 mL/min;柱温为35℃;检测波长为210 nm。在上述条件下,5种有效成分得到很好的分离,并且不受尿液中内源性基质的干扰,在20~200 mg/L范围内线性关系良好(r≥0.999 0);HMACa、KVCa、KILCa、KLCa和KPACa的检出限(S/N=3)分别为3.0、5.0、3.6、5.7和2.5 mg/L;定量限(S/N=10)分别为9.6、16.7、12.0、19.0和8.3 mg/L;日间、日内精密度均小于7%;平均回收率在86.79%~112.00%之间,RSD小于9%(n=5)。该方法准确,灵敏度高,重现性好,适用于尿液中这5种有效成分的检测。
