Robust interface on ENR-50/TiO2 nanohybrid material based sol-gel technique: Insights into synthesis,characterization and applications in optical

In this work, the sol–gel technique was used to prepare a new organic–inorganic hybrid from Epoxidized Natural Rubber (ENR-50) and Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) by blending different content of titania precursors (10, 30, and 50 wt%) with an ENR-50 matrix. A wide range of analyses was conducted to understand the nature of this hybrid and also to evaluate its potential uses in applications required high refractive index such as micro optical and optoelectronic devices. Results indicated that the ring-opening reaction of epoxide groups in ENR-50 increased with the increase of titania content in the hybrid resulting a strong bonding between titania and ENR-50 through TiOC bond, which was observed in FTIR spectrum at 1027–1028 cm⁻¹. It is also observed a slight decrease in the intensity of the amorphous peak along with a new crystalline peak appeared at 2θ = 23 and 27° due to the crystalline nature of titania. The hybrids showed three thermal degradation steps in the range of temperature 76 to 769 °C due to the existence of the Ti moieties with the mixture of polymer chains, which in turn shifted the T_g at 24.3, 26.9 and 28.1 °C for the hybrid at 10, 30, and 50 wt% TiO₂ compared to the T_g of ENR-50 at −18.4 °C respectively. The morphology of the ENR-50 showed clear changes during of the synthesis of ENR-50/TiO₂ hybrids, these changes were proven by SEM, TEM, and AFM analyses. Uv–Vis results showed that the higher wavelength peak at 293 nm has shifted to 296, 298 and 300 nm for the hybrid at 10, 30, and 50 wt% TiO₂ respectively due to the strong interaction between titania precursors and ENR-50 matrix. Furthermore, the hybrids showed good optical transparency in the visible light range.     

Quantitative studies on furfural and organic acid formation during hydrothermal,acidic and alkaline degradation ofD-xylose

Summary Chromatographic analysis of the degradation ofD-xylose either in plain water or aqueous sulfuric acid at temperatures ranging from 180 – 220°C gave up to 50 mol% of furfural. Activation energies did not differ significantly between reactions in plain water (E _a =119.4 kJ/mol), 0.001M H₂SO₄ (E _a =120.6 kJ/mol), 0.01M H₂SO₄ (E _a =130.8 kJ/mol), and 0.1M H₂SO₄ (E _a =120.7 kJ/mol). However, under alkaline conditions the activation energy was only 63.7 kJ/mol, indicating a different reaction mechanism. Isotachophoretic analyses revealed the formation of pyruvic, formic, glycolic, lactic, and acetic acid. While the relative yields of these acids ranged from 0.8 to 7% under hydrothermal and acidic conditions, 10 – 23% were obtained in alkaline degradation.

Quantitative Studien zur Bildung von Furfural und organischen Säuren während des hydrothermalen, sauren und alkalischen Abbaues vonD-Xylose

Zusammenfassung Die chromatographische Analyse des Abbaues vonD-Xylose in reinem Wasser und Schwefelsäure bei Temperaturen von 180 – 220°C ergab die Bildung von bis zu 50 mol% Furfural. In bezug auf die Aktivierungsenergie zeigten sich keine signifikanten Unterschiede zwischen dem Abbau vonD-Xylose in reinem Wasser (E _a =119.4 kJ/mol), 0.001M H₂SO₄ (E _a =120.6 kJ/mol), 0.01M H₂SO₄ (E _a =130.8 kJ/mol), and 0.1M H₂SO₄ (E _a =120.7 kJ/mol). Unter alkalischen Bedingungen hingegen betrug die Aktivierungsenergie nur 63.7 kJ/mol. Dies weist auf einen unterschiedlichen Reaktionsmechanismus hin. Ferner konnte mittels Isotachophorese die Bildung von Brenztraubensäure, Ameisensäure, Glycolsäure, Milchsäure und Essigsäure nachgewiesen werden. Während sich die relativen Ausbeuten in Wasser und Schwefelsäure zwischen 0.8 und 7% bewegten, betrugen sie unter alkalischen Bedingungen 10 bis 23%.

Electroabsorption study of metal-to-ligand charge transfer in an organic complex of iridium (III)

The dipole moment and polarizability changes have been determined from electroabsorption (EA) spectroscopy of solid films of fac tris(2-(phenyl)pyridinato,N,C^2′)iridium (III) [Ir(ppy)₃]. The maximum changes in the dipole moment |Δμ|_S=(5.0±0.5) D/f (f is the local field correction factor: 1.3–1.7) accompany ground state to the lowest singlet, and |Δμ|_T=(1.7±0.5) D/f ground state to the lowest triplet metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) excited states formation, while the average polarizability change ų/f² follows from the fitting procedure throughout the visible absorption spectrum range. The experimental values of |Δμ| as well as energy positions of the MLCT states correlate with the literature results of time-dependent density functional theory.     

Time-resolved ultraviolet laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy for organic material analysis

Ultraviolet pulses (266 nm) delivered by a quadrupled Nd:YAG laser were used to analyze organic samples with laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). We present characteristics of the spectra obtained from organic samples with special attentions on the emissions of organic elements, O and N, and molecular bonds CN. The choice of these atomic or molecular species is justified on one hand, by the importance of these species to specify organic or biological materials; and on the other hand by the possible interferences with ambient air when laser ablation takes place in the atmosphere. Time-resolved LIBS was used to determine the time-evolution of line intensity emitted from these species. We demonstrate different kinetic behaviors corresponding to different origins of emitters: native atomic or molecular species directly vaporized from the sample or those generated through dissociation or recombination due to interaction between laser-induced plasma and air molecules. Our results show the ability of time-resolved UV-LIBS for detection and identification of native atomic or molecular species from an organic sample.     

“双一流”背景下高等农业院校有机化学基础课程教学新模式的构建及实践

The crop science of Sichuan Agricultural University is an authorized first-class discipline. As the strategic supporting department for innovative talent cultivation in agriculture and forestry major, we are facing a long-term challenge in reforming the teaching mode for basic course-organic chemistry and cultivating talented students with solid basic knowledge and strong sense of innovation. Herein a thorough survey was performing to establish the executable teaching programs for this course during the "Double-First Class Universities Plan" period. A multidimensional teaching resource library for organic chemistry course was also constructed. The new classroom teaching mode "Interest cultivation-Creative thought development-Autonomous and Cooperative learning", along with a stepwise practice teaching mode "Foundation skills-Integrated application-Innovative trial" was proposed and practiced among thirty-five majors including agriculture, forestry and veterinary, to improve the quality for innovative talent cultivation and support our first-class discipline construction. This research could probably serve as a reference for congeneric agricultural university.

借鉴梅西大学经验开展农科有机化学在线教学

Massey University is a world-leading university in remote-instruction, online and mixed teaching based on the Stream teaching platform. This paper analyzed the advantages of the Stream teaching platform, resource utilization, course format, teaching team cooperation and course evaluation in Massey University. The paper also analyzed the enlightenment of teaching experience of Massey University to undergraduate teaching. During the outbreak of COVID-19 epidemic, drawing on Massey's experience, combined with the rapid development of information technology in China, the teaching team of organic chemistry adopted the multi-teaching strategy of "teacher-centered and student-centered", and the teaching mode of "teacher-led and self-taught by students". The online teaching practice of organic chemistry was carried out in agriculture university. It has been demonstrated that this model can effectively improve teaching effects.
