α-Fe2O3纳米微粒/硬脂酸交替L-B膜的结构表征

We reported in this paper FTIR linear diehroic spectroscopy and anisotropic properties of the nanoparticulate α-Fe_2O_3-stearate alternating Langmuir-Blodgett films (Fe_2O_3-St LB films) a new inorganic-organic quantum superlattice system. A new method fitted to inorganic-organic alternating films is used to study the molecular orientation and discuss the order arrangement of the nanopartieles in the films. The the results show that a configuration of stearate ions bound to the surface of the nano-particles: COO~- group are spherically bound to the surface of the nanoparticles; the hydrocarbon chains are almost perpendicular (31°±5°) to the substrate (7 nm-Fe_2O_3-St LB films). The orientation of hydrocarbon chains and CH_2 scissors vibration show the existence of trans-zigzag planar structure for C—C broken bone of the hy7drocarbon chains, which is related to high-order structure of the alternate films.     

Preparation of poly(N‐ethyl methacrylamide) particles via an emulsion/precipitation process: The role of the crosslinker

Monodisperse, thermosensitive poly(N‐ethyl methacrylamide) microgel particles were prepared by the batch precipitation/emulsion polymerization of water‐soluble N‐ethyl methacrylamide and the hydrophobic crosslinker ethylene glycol dimethacrylate initiated by potassium persulfate. Particular attention was paid to the effect of the crosslinker agent on the polymerization process (kinetics, conversion, and water‐soluble oligomer content). Particles were characterized in terms of their size distribution and swelling capacity. A polymerization mechanism for the water‐soluble monomer and non‐water‐soluble crosslinker is proposed and discussed on the basis of a combination of both emulsion and precipitation polymerization processes. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Mechanism of azole antifungal activity as determined by liquid chromatographic/mass spectrometric monitoring of ergosterol biosynthesis

A liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) method for separation and characterization of ergosterol biosynthetic precursors was developed to study the effect of Posaconazole on sterol biosynthesis in fungi. Ergosterol biosynthetic precursors were characterized from their electron ionization mass spectra acquired by a normal-phase chromatography, particle beam LC/MS method. Fragment ions resulting from cleavage across the D-ring and an abundant M - 15 fragment ion were diagnostic for methyl substitution at C-4 and C-14. Comparison of the sterol profile in control and treated Candida albicans incubations showed depletion of ergosterol and accumulation of C-4 and C-14 methyl-substituted sterols following treatment with Posaconazole. These C-4 and C-14 methyl sterols are known to be incapable of sustaining cell growth. The results demonstrate that Posaconazole exerts its antifungal activity by inhibition of ergosterol biosynthesis. Furthermore, Posaconazole appears to disrupt ergosterol biosynthesis by inhibition of lanosterol 14alpha-demethylase.

Hierarchical Structure‐Within‐Structure Morphologies in A2‐star‐(B‐alt‐C) Molecules

We employ dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) to examine the self‐assembly behavior of A₂‐star‐(B‐alt‐C) molecules. We successfully observe various types of hierarchical structure‐within‐structures, such as A‐formed spheres in the matrix formed by B and C alternating layers, hexagonally packed A‐formed cylinders in the matrix with B and C segregated layers, B and C alternating layers‐within‐lamellae, coaxial B and C alternating domains within hexagonally packed BC‐formed cylinders in the A‐matrix, and co‐centric BC‐alternating domains within BC‐formed spheres in the A‐matrix, by increasing the A composition. Generally speaking, the small length‐scale B and C segregated domains are in parallel to the large length‐scale structures. This hierarchical periodicity along the same axis as well as the various characteristic structures, that the A₂‐star‐(B‐alt‐C) copolymers display, are quite different from those in A‐block‐(B‐graft‐C) coil‐comb copolymers. Moreover, it is interesting to find that when the copolymer chain length increases, though the hierarchical structure type is maintained, the number of small length‐scale lamellae that can form within the large length‐scale structure increases. These hierarchical structures under various compositions are reported theoretically for the first time in the copolymer systems consisting of the alternating blocks, and are in good agreement with the most recent experimental work by Matsushita and co‐workers (Macromolecules 2007 , 40, 4023).

水煤浆添加剂与煤之间的相互作用规律研究 Ⅰ. 复合煤颗粒间的相互作用对水煤浆流变性的影响

使用12种不同分散剂对14种不同变质程度的煤进行了成浆性实验，分析了182个水煤浆(CWS)样品的流变性。结果表明，低变质程度和高灰煤浆多呈屈服假塑性，煤的性质起主导作用；变质程度高且灰分较低煤浆的流变性，主要依赖于分散剂的结构与性质；分子结构单元立体空间效应大，疏水基团与亲水基团呈立体间隔分布的分散剂，易形成屈服假塑性CWS；分子线度长，亲水基团与疏水基团呈线性间隔分布的分散剂，易形成胀塑性CWS。复合煤粒间的相互作用方式是决定CWS流变特性的关键。

超声波处理对球形β-Ni(OH)2结构及电化学性能的影响

A method of ultrasonic treatment （UST） was first used to modify the structure and electrochemical performance of nickel hydroxide for the active material of nickel series alkaline batteries. The experimental results showed that UST was an effective method to improve the electrochemical performance of β-Ni（OH）2 such as specific discharge capacity, discharge potential, electrochemical reversibility and oxygen evolution over-potential. The results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction and particle size distribution indicated that the improvement of the performance of β-Ni（OH）2 through UST was attributed to the reduction of the charge-transfer resistance （Rt） and the diffusion impedance （Zw）, which resulted from the decrease of the crystallite and particle size and the increase of interlayer spacing. Diffusion coefficient of proton DH of ultrasonic treated β-Ni（OH）2 gained by CV tests was 1.13 × 10^-11 cm^2/s, and the average discharge specific capacity of ultrasonic treated β-Ni（OH）2 electrode was 301 mAh/g.
