GRAFTING OF ACRYLAMIDE ONTO SURFACE OF COPOLYMERS CONTAINING P-TOLYLCARBAMOYL PENDANT GROUP INITIATED WITH CERIC SALT

Two copolymers containing p-tolylcarbamoyl pendant group poly (MAMT-co-VAc) and poly(MAMT-co-MA) were synthesized f and the graft copolymerization of AAM onto these two func-tional copolymers films initiated with ceric salt were carried out in aqueous solution for variousperiods at 30℃. The formation of graft copolymer was verified by water absorption, ESCA andSEM photographs. Based on the results of the study of the initiation mechanism of model com-pounds and ceric salt systems, the reaction mechanism of the graft copolymerization initiated withceric salt was proposed.

干水：从概念提出到实际应用

通过对干水的发展史考证可知，20世纪中期，科学家研制出一种由二氧化硅颗粒包裹着水滴的干性粉末并将其命名为“干水（Dry Water）”，但在很长的一段时间内并没有引起人们的关注。至21世纪初，关于干水形成机理和制备技术的一系列研究相继展开。随后，干水巨大的潜在应用价值备受人们关注，其在化妆品、水合物储气、催化剂、灭火剂等众多领域的应用得到了一定程度的开发。干水相关技术的发展会使化学物质的利用方式不断创新。干水的相关知识和发展史改变了人们对水的认识，并会成为化学教科书和百科全书的重要内容。

Preparation of PANI-TiO2 nanocomposites and their solid-phase photocatalytic degradation

A series of polyaniline-anatase TiO₂ (PANI-TiO₂) nanocomposite powders with different PANI:TiO₂ ratios were prepared by ‘in-situ’ deposition oxidative polymerization of aniline hydrochloride using ammonium persulfate (APS) as oxidant in the presence of ultrafine grade powder of anatase TiO₂ cooled in an ice bath. And the solid-phase photocatalytic degradation of PANI-TiO₂ nanocomposites was investigated under the ambient air in order to assess the feasibility of developing photodegradable polymers. The photodegradation of the composite powders was compared with that of pure PANI powders by performing weight loss monitoring, elemental analysis, FT-IR and UV-vis spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The PANI-TiO₂ nanocomposite powders showed highly enhanced photodegradation and the photodegradation increased with decreasing ratios of PANI:TiO₂. A weight loss of about 6.8% was found for the PANI-TiO₂ (1:3) nanocomposite; however, the weight loss of the PANI-HCl powder was only 0.3% after being irradiated for 60 h under air. The photocatalytic degradation of the nanocomposite powders accompanied the peak intensity decrease in the FT-IR spectra at 1235 cm⁻¹, attributed to C-N stretching mode for benzenoid unit, and the depigmentation of the powders due to the visible light scattering from growing cavities. The elemental analysis and XPS analysis of the composite showed that the bulk and surface concentrations of N decreased with irradiation. A possible mechanism for the photocatalytical oxidative degradation was also mentioned.     

Property and structure of various platinum catalysts for low-temperature carbon monoxide oxidations

The oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) has received more attention in the last two to three decades owing to its importance in different fields. To control this CO pollution, catalytic converters have been investigated. Different types of catalysts have been used in a catalytic converter for CO emission control purposes. Platinum (Pt)-based noble metal catalysts show great potential for CO oxidation in catalytic converters with high thermal stability and tailoring flexibility. Pt metal catalysts modified with promoters such as alkali metals and reducible metal oxides have received great attention for their superior catalytic activities in CO oxidation. Temperature, close environment of the catalyst, and chemical composition in the surface layer of the catalyst have a huge effect on the active phase dispersion and O₂ adsorption capacity of the Pt metal catalysts. The main difference in activities of Pt metal catalyst for CO oxidation in O₂ or H₂ atmosphere has found. The addition of supports in Pt metal catalysts has improved their performances and reduced their cost. These improvement strongly depends on the surface structure, morphology, number of active sites, and various Pt-O interactions. Many research articles have already been published in CO oxidation over Pt metal catalysts, but no review article dedicated to CO oxidation is available in the literature.

Process analysis of depolymerization polybutylene terephthalate in supercritical methanol

The characteristics of depolymerization of PBT in supercritical methanol were investigated in the range of 453-533 K by using a high-pressure reactor. Based on the qualitative and quantitative analyses of the products, a depolymerization-reaction model was proposed to explain the depolymerization and reaction mechanism, i.e. ester exchange reaction occurred randomly along the chain of PBT. It was suggested that the process of depolymerization consisted of subcritical region, transitional region and supercritical region. In the first region, PBT mainly showed a swelling process in the methanol with slow decrease in molecular weight and little conversion. In the second region, PBT dissolved quickly with high depolymerization rate. While in the third region, the molecular weight of PBT decreased quickly with a thorough depolymerization in few minutes. DMT and BG obtained from the depolymerization of PBT in supercritical methanol reached 98.5% and 72.3%, respectively.     

Barbier-type reaction mediated with tin nano-particles in water

Tin nano-particles are employed in the Barbier-type allylation reaction of carbonyl compounds in water to afford the corresponding homoallylic alcohols in good yields. The in situ generated allylation intermediates, allyltin(II) bromide and diallyltin dibromide, have been directly observed by using ¹H NMR. A mechanism is proposed based on this observation.     

Effect of Bacteria‐Virus Interaction on Mechanism of Virus Removal Using Microfiltration Membranes

In this study, 0.22 μm hydrophobic GVHP membrane was challenged with host bacteria, Escherichia coli (ED 8656) and bacteriophage (λ wild type). For investigation of filtration mechanism, we employed blocking laws, which are based on the profiles of t/v versus time (t) and t/v versus volume (v). For prominent demonstrating the linearity, the profiles were reconstructed. When feed contained bacteriophage or a mixture of bacteriophages and host bacteria, the profiles indicated that at the beginning of the filtration, standard blocking (pore plugging) was the dominant mechanism. Over time the bacteriophages filled the pores and formed a cake layer on the membrane surface. The presence of bacteria facilitated the cake layer build up. Nevertheless the filtration mechanism started with pore blockage and ended with cake formation. The comparison of the present study with another research project carried out by the authors indicates that the removal mechanisms do not rely upon the interactions between microorganisms. However the details of cake layer specifications depend on the nature of the microorganisms and operating conditions.
