Preparation and properties of rare-earth containing oxide fluoride glasses

The preparation of the rare earth containing oxide fluoride glasses LnF₃ (Ln; Y through Lu)-BaF₂-AlF₃-GeO₂ in which the nominal content of LnF₃ reached 60 mol% in maximum and their basic properties such as density, refractive index and glass transition temperature were investigated and summarized in detail. Especially, in order to discuss the local structure around the rare earth ion in the glass, the Judd-Ofelt analysis (discussion with Ω parameters) of the HoF₃-BaF₂-AlF₃-GeO₂ glasses was carried out. The unique fluorescent behavior and the magnetic properties of LnF₃-BaF₂-AlF₃-GeO₂ glasses (Ln = Tb and/or Sm) were also studied.     

A facile synthesis of solid-emissive fluorescent dyes: dialkylbenzo[b]naphtho[2,1-d]furan-6-one-type fluorophores with strong blue and green fluorescence emission properties

A new type of organic fluorophores, dialkylbenzo[b]naphtho[2,1-d]furan-6-one-type fluorophores, exhibiting strong blue and green emission in the solid state has been easily synthesized by an one-step reaction. The X-ray crystal structure demonstrated that the structural form with a chair-shape with the sterical hindered dialkyl substituents and the 9-dibutylamino group prevents the fluorophores from forming short intermolecular contacts and produces intense solid-state fluorescence emission.

Synthesis and Magnetic Properties of Fe（Ⅱ） and Nd（Ⅲ） Complexes of Poly（N-2-thiazolylacrylamide）

N-2-Thiazolylacrylamide （NTA） was polymerized by a radical route to obtain the polymer in good yield. The polymer with a pendent heterocyclic group is soluble in common organic solvents, which allow to prepare the corresponding metal complexes with higher loads easily. FTIR, ^1H NMR, elemental analysis, and energy-dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy （EDX） were applied to characterize these materials. The magnetic behavior of Fe（Ⅱ） and Nd（Ⅲ） complexes of poly（N-2-thiazolylacrylamide） was examined by a PPMS-9T magnetometer, exhibiting the characteristics of a soft ferromagnet. It is found that the Nd（Ⅲ） complex has an extremely high relative saturation magnetization of 35 emu/g.     

THERMAL PROPERTY, MISCIBILITY AND CRYSTALLIZATION BEHAVIOR OF POLY（3-HYDROXYBUTYRATE-co- 3-YDROXYHEXANOATE） AND POLY（BUTYLENE SUCCINATE-ADIPATE） （PHBHHX/PBSA） BLENDS

Blends of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBHHx) and poly(butylene succinate-adipate) (PBSA), both biodegradable semicrystalline polyesters, were prepared with the ratio of PHBHHx/PBSA ranging from 80/20 to 20/80 by melt mixing method. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMA), polarizing optical microscopy (POM) and wide angle X-ray diffractometer (WAXD) were used to study the miscibility and crystallization behavior of PHBHHx/PBSA blends. Experimental results indicate that PHBHHx is immiscible with PBSA as shown by the almost unchanged glass transition temperature and the biphasic melt.     

Rheological properties of multisticker associative polyelectrolytes in semidilute aqueous solutions

Multisticker associative polyelectrolytes of acrylamide (≈86 mol %) and sodium 2‐acrylamido‐2‐methylpropanesulfonate (≈12 mol %), hydrophobically modified with N,N‐dihexylacrylamide groups (≈2 mol %), were prepared with a micellar radical polymerization technique. This process led to multiblock polymers in which the length of the hydrophobic blocks could be controlled through variations in the surfactant‐to‐hydrophobe molar ratio, that is, the number of hydrophobes per micelle (N_H). The rheological behavior of aqueous solutions of polymers with the same molecular weight and the same composition but with two different hydrophobic block lengths (N_H = 7 or 3 monomer units per block) was investigated as a function of the polymer concentration with steady‐flow, creep, and oscillatory experiments. The critical concentration at the onset of the viscosity enhancement decreased as the length of the hydrophobic segments in the polymers increased. Also, an increase in the N_H value significantly enhanced the thickening ability of the polymers and affected the structure of the transient network. In the semidilute unentangled regime, the behavior of the polymer with long hydrophobic segments (N_H = 7) was studied in detail. The results were well explained by the sticky Rouse theory of associative polymer dynamics. Finally, the viscosity decreased with an increase in the temperature, mainly because of a lowering of the sample relaxation time. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Surface composition and property of film prepared with aqueous dispersion of polyurethaneurea-acrylate including fluorinated block copolymer

The aqueous dispersion of polyurethaneurea-acrylate (PUA) including small amount of fluorinated block copolymers containing carboxyl groups (PATF), which can be dissolved in water, was used to make films and the surface properties of these films were examined. The experimental data show that the modified PUA film exhibits a hydrophobic surface property, although the original surface of PUA film is hydrophilic. The surface composition of the modified PUA film was measured by ATR and XPS. The results indicate that there is a concentration gradient of the fluorine groups along the lines of thickness of the modified film and towards the outmost surface layer, resulting from the migration of fluorinated blocks to the air side surface of the modified PUA film during the film formation process. However, the PUA film can not be modified effectively by adding the sodium salt of PATF, since the urethane groups in the system are easy to occupy on the surface of the film.

A novel method for the synthesis of the PEG-crosslinked chitosan with a pH-independent swelling behavior

In this study, a simple method was developed to crosslink chitosan using poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) with different molecular weights. Crosslinking of chitosan was confirmed by various spectral analyses. The differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) study indicated that the rigid crystalline structure of chitosan was decreased after crosslinking with PEG. The PEG-crosslinked chitosan (PEG-Ch) showed a pH-independent swelling behavior: swelled in both the simulated stomach (pH 1.1) and intestinal (pH 7.4) solutions. The swelling ratio of PEG-Ch increased significantly with a higher molecular weight of PEG used. In contrast, chitosan dissolved completely in a simulated stomach solution and showed a comparatively less swelling in a simulated intestinal solution. Thus, the prepared PEG-Ch could be a better biomaterial than chitosan in the development of orally sustained drug-delivery devices.     

关于超高分子量聚丙烯超拉伸膜的结构性能的研究——Ⅱ.形态结构变化对力学性能的影响

用X-射线衍射、动态力学测定等手段研究了不同拉伸倍数的超高分子量聚丙烯薄膜的力学性能的变化.以X-射线衍射法并基于串联力学模型的假设得到的各样品的表观晶区模量E_c~(app)约为34-38GPa.样品模量E_b随拉伸倍数增加而逐渐增大,其变化趋势与非晶区取向因子的变化相类似,说明非晶区取向是左右样品模量的重要因素.室温下,69倍拉伸样品的模量为27GPa,约为表观结晶模量的3/4,且其值在-150-160℃的温度范围内没有急剧变化,说明超拉伸明显改善了材料的力学性能及热稳定性.在各拉伸样品中,考虑伸直链结晶生成的可能性,利用并串联力学模型对伸直链结晶的体积分数做了估算,并对X-射线衍射法所得表观结晶模量进行了修正,认为室温下聚丙烯的真正晶区模量约为47GPa.
