软物质准晶广义流体动力学的一个应用——圆柱绕流的近似解

文中报道了笔者建议的软物质准晶广义流体动力学的一个应用——软物质准晶圆柱绕流的近似解.人们熟知,在普通流体动力学中, 二维圆柱绕流问题遇到很大的困难,Stokes求解它,未能成功,这就是著名Stokes佯谬.为了克服这一困难, Oseen分析了原因不在边界条件的提法,也不在Stokes的求解,问题出在Navier-Stokes方程, 他对方程进行了修改, 得到了二维绕流问题的有物理意义的近似分析解.本文借助于Oseen的方法讨论12次对称软物质准晶广义流体动力学二维绕流问题.由于问题比普通流体动力学复杂得多,严格的求解,在目前的条件下是根本不可能的.笔者提出一种近似方法——交替程序去构造其零级近似解,并且把该结果用于软物质准晶的位错问题.     

Dummy Fragment Template Molecularly Imprinted Polymers for the Selective Solid-phase Extraction of Gonyautoxins from Seawater

A multitemplate molecularly imprinted polymer was synthesized using fragments similar to gonyautoxins 1 and 4 including 2,4,6-triaminopyrimidine, 4-hydroxy-2-butanone, and imidazole as dummy templates by bulk polymerization. Scanning electron microscopy and infrared spectroscopy showed a porous structure and the formation of organic groups in the imprinting process of the polymer. One millilitre of 0.1?mol?L^?1 acetic acid and 1?mL of 95% methanol were the optimized washing and eluting solutions during the molecularly imprinted solid-phase extraction. The adsorption capacity of the multitemplate molecularly imprinted polymer was lower than for the monotemplate molecularly imprinted polymer prepared in a previous study in seawater in which Alexandrium tamarense and Alexandrium minutum were cultivated. This result may due to the inappropriate combination of the dummy template fragments in the synthesis resulting in the unfitness of the imprinting sites for gonyautoxins 1 and 4. In general, it is inappropriate to use fragments with the similar parts to the analyte as the dummy templates. However, this work indicated the optimal molecularly imprinted polymer for the selective extraction of gonyautoxins 1 and 4.     

Crack-Free,Soft Wrinkles Enable Switchable Anisotropic Wetting

Soft skin layers on elastomeric substrates are demonstrated to support mechano-responsive wrinkle patterns that do not exhibit cracking under applied strain. Soft fluoropolymer skin layers on pre-strained poly(dimethylsiloxane) slabs achieved crack-free surface wrinkling at high strain regimes not possible by using conventional stiff skin layers. A side-by-side comparison between the soft and hard skin layers after multiple cycles of stretching and releasing revealed that the soft skin layer enabled dynamic control over wrinkle topography without cracks or delamination. We systematically characterized the evolution of wrinkle wavelength, amplitude, and orientation as a function of tensile strain to resolve the crack-free structural transformation. We demonstrated that wrinkled surfaces can guide water spreading along wrinkle orientation, and hence switchable, anisotropic wetting was realized.     

Surface‐imprinted microspheres prepared by a template‐oriented method for the chiral separation of amlodipine

The surface imprinting technique has been developed to overcome the mass‐transfer difficulty, but the utilization ratio of template molecules in the imprinting procedure still remains a challengeable task to be improved. In this work, specifically designed surface‐imprinted microspheres were prepared by a template‐oriented method for enantioseparation of amlodipine besylate. Submicron mesoporous silica microspheres were surface‐modified with double bonds, followed by polymerizing methacrylic acid to generate carboxyl modified mesoporous silica microspheres (PMAA@SiO₂). Afterwards, PMAA@SiO₂ was densely adsorbed with (S )‐amlodipine molecules to immobilize template molecules through multiple hydrogen bonding interactions. Then surface molecular imprinting was carried out by cross‐linking the carboxyl group of PMAA@SiO₂ with ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether. The surface‐imprinted microspheres showed fast binding kinetics of only 20 min for equilibrium adsorption, and the saturation adsorption capacity reached 137 mg/g. The imprinted materials displayed appreciable chiral separation ability when used as column chromatography for enantioseparation of amlodipine from amlodipine besylate, and the enantiomeric excess of (S )‐amlodipine reached 13.8% with only 2.3 cm column length by no extra chiral additives. Besides, the imprinted materials exhibited excellent reusability, and this allows the potential application for amplification production of amlodipine enantiomer.     

Biological soft materials

With one or two exceptions, biological materials are "soft", meaning that they combine viscous and elastic elements. This mechanical behavior results from self-assembled supramolecular structures that are stabilized by noncovalent interactions. It is an ongoing and profound challenge to understand the self-organization of biological materials. In many cases, concepts can be imported from soft-matter physics and chemistry, which have traditionally focused on materials such as colloids, polymers, surfactants, and liquid crystals. Using these ideas, it is possible to gain a new perspective on phenomena as diverse as DNA condensation, protein and peptide fibrillization, lipid partitioning in rafts, vesicle fusion and budding, and others, as discussed in this selective review of recent highlights from the literature.
