ESR investigation on the phase transitions of DPPC vesicles in presence of high concentrations of Li+, Na+, K+ and Cs+

The partition of the spin label TEMPO in the hydrophobic region of di-palmitoyl-phosphatidylcholine unilamellar vesicles has been used to investigate the influence of high concentration (up 3M) of Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, and Cs⁺ on the phase transitions at 20–60°C. All of the above salts increase the permeation of TEMPO. The efficiency of monovalent cations in inducing the partition of the spin label in the hydrophobic environment of the bilayer increases in the order: Cs⁺+++. The disappearing of the pretransition and the downward shift of the main phase transition temperature from 37°C to 33.5°C is related to the increased permeation of TEMPO into the bilayer. The presence of salts in the bulk solution disturbs the hydration of the zwitterionic polar head of the DPPC molecules and changes the electrical interaction between the polar groups of the bilayer. This reduces the packing density of the lipid molecules and promotes the permeation of TEMPO.     

Multicomponent electrolyte systems: Dependence of ionic mobilities on aqueous organic solvent structure

Ionic mobility data for multicomponent electrolyte systems at low concentrations are scarce due to experimental difficulties and are actually restricted to aqueous solutions of alkali chlorides. Some new results are presented which have been obtained by using a radiotracer method valid even if one of the ionic species is present at very low concentrations (tracer ion). The following electrolyte systems (two electrolytes with a common ion in a solvent) have been investigated at a 0.5N total ionic strength: NaNO₃–AgNO₃, KNO₃–AgNO₃, LiNO₃–AgNO₃ either in pure water or in water-rich (acetonitrile or dimethylsulfoxide) mixed solvents. Since ionic conductivity data processing by an extended law generalized to mixtures, such as that proposed by Quint and Viallard, has proved to be delicate to handle, our experimental results have been compared with the qualitative predictions of the classical Onsager-Fuoss limiting law. The main conclusion of this work is to give clear experimental evidence of the inability of any continuum theory to predict the ionic mobilities when solvent structural effect have to be taken into account. Consequently, the ionic behavior, particularly that of the Ag⁺ ion, has been interpreted in terms of preferential solvation and solvent microscopic structure. The trace mobility measurements reflect the maximum structural effect on the ionic transport properties.

Use of α‐diketones as visible photoinitiators for the photocrosslinking of waterborne latex paints

The efficiency of several α‐diketones as visible light photoinitiators for the crosslinking of waterborne latex dispersions in the presence of acrylic monomers was evaluated. Among the eight α‐diketones studied, camphorquinone allows the fastest curing speed, and the curing of the acrylic waterborne coating is not affected by the presence of oxygen. The properties of the sunlight‐cured volatile organic compound (VOC)‐free pigmented paints prepared from the waterborne latex are as good or better than the equivalent conventional paint containing VOCs. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

聚苯乙烯乳胶球三维有序体的制备及其显微形貌表征

A three-dimensional (3D) ordered structure was achieved by self-organization of monodisperse polystyrene latex about 250nm in diameter after being ambient dried. The stacked morphology was investigated by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) observation. It is shown that the face-centered cubic(FCC) phase dominantly exists. This finding presents a potential template for preparing an inverse FCC structure as a photonic crystal of full band gap if the index contrast is higher than 2.8.
