电子束敏感材料的原子尺度结构研究

分子筛和金属有机骨架(MOF)材料以其独特的孔道和骨架结构在催化、 储能、 干燥及净化和吸附分离等领域有着广泛应用, 对其结构的原子尺度表征对于深入理解其构效关系具有重要意义. 但其大孔道结构和有机骨架使得它们对电子束辐照极为敏感, 在常规透射电镜成像模式下结构会很快被破坏变为非晶, 从而无法获得孔道和骨架的原子排列信息. 最近发展起来的基于积分差分相位衬度扫描透射电子显微(iDPC-STEM)技术在电子敏感材料和轻元素组分成像方面展现出明显优势, 使得对多孔骨架材料及烃池物种的表征成为了可能. 本文综述了本课题组近期利用该技术对分子筛和MOF材料原子尺度结构方面的研究. 将iDPC-STEM技术应用到ZSM-5分子筛催化剂中, 实现了对该分子筛的原子级骨架结构的成像分析. 在MOF体系中, 利用该技术观察到MIL-101骨架内部有机连接体与金属节点的配位方式, 在此基础上解析了MIL-101结构中有机配体的连接和金属节点的苯环结构, 并观察了MOF的原子级表面、 界面和缺陷等局域结构特征. 最后对iDPC-STEM技术在原子尺度成像方面的应用潜力进行了总结与展望.

Zwitterionic comb-like lipid polymers encapsulating linalool for increasing the fragrance retention time

Fragrances are widely used in cosmetics,apparel and detergents.However,the rapid evaporation of the aro ma shortens the useful life of the aromatic product.Therefore,improving the fragrance retention time of aromatic products and prolonging the service life of aromatic products are the key scientific problems that need to be solved in current aromatic products.In this study,zwitterionic comb-like lipid polymers were synthesized to encapsulate the fragrance molecule linalool.The results showed that the zwitterionic comb lipid molecules were capable of encapsulating more linalool than linear lipid molecules.At the same time,the zwitterionic comb-like lipid molecules also limited the slow release rate of the aroma,thereby increasing the fragrance retention time of the nano-fragrance.     

Recent advances in the improvement of g-C3N4 based photocatalytic materials

g-C₃N₄ have been widely used in the fields of photocatalytic hydrogen production,photocatalytic degradation of dyes and oxidative degradation of toxic gases due to their excellent performance.It has attracted extensive attention in recent years due to its highly efficient photocatalytic capacity of hydrogen generation,water oxidation,carbon dioxide reduction and degradation of organic pollutants.Because of the abundant carbon and nitrogen composition of the earth,large-scale production and industrial applications of this material are possible.The modification of this material makes its performance more excellent so that this new material can obtain a steady stream of vitality.These outstanding works have become important materials and milestones on the road to mankind's photocatalytic hydrogen production.This review will begin with the basic idea of designing,synthesizing and improving g-C₃N₄ based photocatalytic materials,and introduce the latest development of g-C₃N₄ photocatalysts in hydrogen production from four aspects of controlling the carbon/nitrogen ratio,morphology,element doping and heterojunction structure of g-C₃N₄ materials.     

Cationic and temperature-sensitive liposomes loaded with eugenol for the application to silk

Silk has been widely used in the clothing industry due to their soft and smooth features, good biocompatibility, good heat dissipation, warmth and ultraviolet resistance. The application of fragrance to silk can significantly improve the performance of silk. However, there are two key scientific problems that need to be solved: slowing down the release rate of fragrances and increasing the scent lasting time of silk. In this study, cationic and temperature-sensitive liposomes were designed and prepared to encapsulate eugenol. These fragrance-loaded liposomes significantly slowed down the release rate of the fragrance and controlled the release rate of the fragrance in a thermo-sensitive manner. The liposomes adhered to the silk through electrostatic adsorption interaction. The positive charge on the fragrance-loaded liposomes neutralized much negative charge on silk and thereby increasing the adhesion efficiency.
