Electroactive shape memory effect of radiation cross-linked SBS/LLDPE composites filled with carbon black

The poly(styrene-b-butadiene-b-styrene) (SBS) triblock copolymer and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) were blended and irradiated by γ rays to prepare shape memory polymer (SMP). Different weight fractions of conductive carbon black (CB) were filled into SMP to form a novel electroactive shape memory CB/SBS/LLDPE composite. The CB reinforced radiation cross-linked SBS/LLDPE blends for the improvement of the mechanical weakness and conductivity of SBS/LLDPE bulk and for wide practical engineering uses. The electroactive shape memory CB/SBS/LLDPE composites were investigated by electrical properties, mechanical, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electroactive shape memory effects. It is found that the tensile strength, storage modulus, and resistance against mechanical and thermal mechanical cycle loading in the developed composites increased due to the role of reinforcement of CB. The melting temperatures and volume resistance of the composites decreased with the increment of CB for excellent electrical conductivity of CB. The electroactive shape memory effects of developed CB/SBS/LLDPE composites were affected by CB weight fractions and applied voltage, while good shape recovery could be obtained in the shape recovery test. When the CB fraction is more than 5 wt%, full recovery can be observed after tens of seconds and shape recovery speed increased with CB fractions and voltage increasing. However, the shape recovery rate decreases slightly with increment of cycle times.     

Multiple Stimuli-Responsive Conformational Exchanges of Biphen[3]arene Macrocycle

Conformational exchanges of synthetic macrocyclic acceptors are rather fast, which is rarely studied in the absence of guests. Here, we report multiple stimuli-responsive conformational exchanges between two preexisting conformations of 2,2′,4,4′-tetramethoxyl biphen[3]arene (MeBP3) macrocycle. Structures of these two conformations are both observed in solid state, and characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and 2D NMR in solution. In particular, conformational exchanges can respond to solvents, temperatures, guest binding and acid/base addition. The current system may have a role to play in the construction of molecular switches and other stimuli-responsive systems.     

Catalytic Selective Dihydrosilylation of Internal Alkynes Enabled by Rare‐Earth Ate Complex

Hydrosilylation of alkynes generally yield vinylsilanes, which are inert to the further hydrosilylation because of the steric effects. Reported here is the first successful dihydrosilylation of aryl‐ and silyl‐substituted internal alkynes enabled by a rare‐earth ate complex to yield geminal bis‐ and tris(silanes), respectively. The lanthanum bis(amido) ate complex supported by an ene‐diamido ligand proved to be the ideal catalyst for this unprecedented transformation, while the same series of yttrium and samarium alkyl and samarium bis(amido) ate complexes exhibited poor activity and selectivity, indicating significant effects of the ionic size and ate structure of the rare‐earth catalysts.

Effects of High-Intensity Ultrasound Pretreatment on Structure,Properties, and Enzymolysis of Walnut Protein Isolate

The purpose of this paper was to investigate the effect of high-intensity ultrasonication (HIU) pretreatment before enzymolysis on structural conformations of walnut protein isolate (WPI) and antioxidant activity of its hydrolysates. Aqueous WPI suspensions were subjected to ultrasonic processing at different power levels (600–2000 W) and times (5–30 min), and then changes in the particle size, zeta (ζ) potential, and structure of WPI were investigated, and antioxidant activity of its hydrolysates was determined. The particle size of the particles of aqueous WPI suspensions was decreased after ultrasound, indicating that sonication destroyed protein aggregates. The ζ-potential values of a protein solution significantly changed after sonication, demonstrating that the original dense structure of the protein was destroyed. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicated a change in the secondary structure of WPI after sonication, with a decrease in β-turn and an increase in α-helix, β-sheet, and random coil content. Two absorption peaks of WPI were generated, and the fluorescence emission intensity of the proteins decreased after ultrasonic treatment, indicating that the changes in protein tertiary structure occurred. Moreover, the degree of hydrolysis and the antioxidant activity of the WPI hydrolysates increased after sonication. These results suggest that HIU pretreatment is a potential tool for improving the functional properties of walnut proteins.
