Thermal and mechanical properties of PE/organoclay nanocomposites

Polyethylene/montmorillonite clay nanocomposites were obtained via direct melt intercalation. The clay was organically modified with four different types of quaternary ammonium salts. The objective of this work is to study the use of montmorillonite clay in the production of nanocomposites by means on rheological, mechanical and crystallization properties of nanocomposites and to compare to the properties of the matrix and PE/unmodified clay nanocomposites. In general, the tensile test showed that the yield strength and modulus of the nanocomposites are close to the pure PE. Apparently, the mixture with Dodigen salt seems to be more stable than the pure PE and PE/unmodified clay.     

Chemical fixation of CO2 with highly efficient ZnCl2/[BMIm]Br catalyst system

The chemical fixation of CO₂ with mono-substituted terminal epoxides or cyclohexene oxide to form cyclic carbonates under the ZnCl₂/[BMIm]Br catalyst system without using additional organic solvents was achieved in excellent selectivity (>98%) and TOF (5410 h⁻¹) and the catalyst could be used six times almost without losing its catalytic activity and selectivity. Besides, the pure cis-cyclic carbonate of cyclohexene oxide was obtained in this catalyst system.     

Phenol methylation over CrPO4 and CrPO4?AlPO4 catalysts

The vapor-phase catalytic alkylation of phenol with methanol and dimethyl carbonate on a series of differently prepared CrPO₄ (Cr/P=1) and CrPO₄-AlPO₄ (CrAIP) catalysts, has been studied at different temperatures (473–673 K). The reaction is first order in phenol, giving a mixture of O- and C-alkylated products (C-alkylation taking place preferentially at theortho-position). Moreover, dimethyl carbonate is a better methylating agent than methanol.

自从 1 969年井上祥平[1] 发现二氧化碳 (CO2 )可以同环氧化合物直接共聚合成脂肪族聚碳酸酯(APC)以来 ,这一学科领域受到科学家的广泛关注[2～ 8] .这是因为CO2 所产生的温室效应 ,成为使全球变暖的主要因素[9,10 ] .已经确定CO2 使气侯变暖占诸多因素中的 66% .目前大气中CO2 的体积浓度为 345ppmv,由于人类的各类活动每年以 1ppmv的速度递增 .因此 ,降低CO2 排放量已成为全人类共同关注的热点之一 .另一方面 ,CO2 的固定化以及消耗、利用显然是一个应积极鼓励的研究课题 .目前人们已经将CO2 同环氧乙烷 (EO)、环氧丙烷 (PO)、环…     

碳酸盐前驱物制备Y2O3超细粉及透明陶瓷

以Y(NO3)3和NH4HCO3为原料,通过向Y(NO3)3溶液中滴加NH4HCO3的方式制备了化学组成为Y2(CO3)3·2H2O的先驱沉淀物。研究了先驱沉淀物煅烧过程中的物相变化。先驱沉淀物1100℃煅烧4h后得到了平均粒径为60nm的无团聚Y2O3超细粉体。所得粉体不添加任何添加剂,在1700℃下真空烧结4h得到了透明Y2O3陶瓷。     

Silver(I) Complexes with Nitrogen-Containing Noncyclic, Macrocyclic, and Macrobicyclic Ligands in Propylene Carbonate

Stability constants and thermodynamic data for complex formation of silver(I) with noncyclic, macrocyclic, and macrobicyclic ligands have been measured in propylene carbonate using potentiometric and calorimetric methods. All ligands containing two nitrogen donor atoms form extremely stable complexes. Only if substituents reduce the basicity of the nitrogen donor atoms, the stability of the complexes decreases drastically. However, the cryptand (221) forms the most stable complex of all ligands examined. In this case, the dimensions of the ligand cavity and of the cation are nearly identical.     

Enzymatic Synthesis and Polymerization of Cyclic Trimethylene Carbonate Monomer with/without Methyl Substituent

The direct enzymatic synthesis of a cyclic trimethylene carbonate (1,3‐dioxane‐2‐one) monomer with/without a methyl substituent was carried out using dimethyl or diethyl carbonate and 1,3‐diol with the objective of producing aliphatic poly(trimethylene carbonate), a typical biodegradable synthetic plastic. The lipase‐catalyzed condensation of dimethyl or diethyl carbonate with aliphatic 1,3‐diols using immobilized Candida antarctica lipase (lipase CA) in an organic solvent at 70 °C afforded the corresponding methyl‐substituted and unsubstituted cyclic trimethylene carbonates. The cyclic trimethylene carbonates obtained by the reaction of dimethyl or diethyl carbonates with 1,3‐propanediol and 2‐methyl‐1,3‐propanediol were polymerized by lipase to produce the corresponding polycarbonates.

碳酸氢铵制纯碱的研究

本文对“中间盐”复分解制碱法进行了研究。“中间盐”的加入不能使两个三盐共饱和点在干盐图上发生明显的移动,但能使三盐介稳平衡点的介稳期延长,从而使得用碳酸氢铵和食盐通过复分解制碱成为可能。     

Synthesis and characterisation of advanced UHMWPE/silver nanocomposites for biomedical applications

A supercritical fluid (SCF) route for facile and homogeneous introduction of silver nanoparticles into polymer hosts is described. Our focus is on ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). We demonstrate that the metallic nanoparticles have a substantial effect upon the wear and tribochemical properties of the polymer substrate.     

钯催化气相氧化羰基化合成碳酸二甲酯

通过催化剂反应性能和反应前后XPS谱图对比，分析了负载型钯催化剂在甲醇气相氧化羰基化合成碳酸二甲酯过程中的失活原因，研究了HCl在维持催化剂活性及失活催化剂再生中的作用．结果表明，氯离子的流失是负载型钯碳催化剂失活的主要原因．由于氯离子的流失，对于PdCl2／AC催化剂，钯很容易从二价变为零价：对于PdCl2-CuCl2／AC催化剂，CuCl2发生变化，失去使钯保持二价氯化物状态的功能．在反应过程中补充HCl可以延长催化剂的寿命，也可以利用HCl对失活催化剂进行再生，但采用HCl不能从根本上解决催化剂失活的问题．
