Fabrication of Stable Superhydrophobic Coatings with Furfural Acetone Resin/PTFE Composites

We describe a simple and inexpensive technique to fabricate superhydrophobic coatings with furfural acetone resin/poly (tetrafluoroethylene) (FAR/PTFE) composites. An interesting hierarchical structure with dispersed cavities and protuberances in microscale was achieved. The water contact angle (CA) of the superhydrophobic surface is 157° and the sliding angle is about 5°. The coatings can be applied to large substrates by spray coating with ease and possess high cohesional strength with the substrates. Meanwhile, the superhydrophobic coatings show long-term stability in pure water and acidic solutions with higher concentration.     

Multi-analyte high performance liquid chromatography coupled to high resolution tandem mass spectrometry method for control of pesticide residues,mycotoxins, and pyrrolizidine alkaloids

A new reliable and highly sensitive method based on high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) separation and high resolution tandem mass spectrometric detection (HRMS/MS) has been developed and validated for determination of 323 pesticide residues, 55 mycotoxins, and 11 plant toxins represented by pyrrolizidine alkaloids. The method was validated for three matrices, leek, wheat, and tea differing in nature/amount of co-extracts that may cause various matrix effects. For target analytes isolation, optimized QuEChERS-based (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe) extraction procedure was employed. Spectral HRMS/MS library has been established providing an entire spectrum of fragment ions for each analyte, which allows unbiased identification and confirmation of target compounds. The limits of quantification (LOQs) of target analytes were below 10 μg kg⁻¹ for 82%, 81%, and 61% for matrices leek, wheat, and tea, respectively. Recoveries were in the acceptable range (70–120%) according to SANCO/12571/2013 for most of target analytes, except for highly polar ‘masked’ mycotoxin deoxynivalenol-3-glucoside with recoveries 35%, 47%, and 42% for matrices leek, wheat, and tea, respectively. The linearities of calibration curves expressed as coefficients of determination were in the range of 0.9661–1.000, and repeatabilities expressed as relative standard deviations (RSDs) at LOQs lied in the range of 0.25–13.51%. The trueness of the method was verified using several certified reference materials (CRMs) and proficiency test samples.

Study of a new novel process for preparing and co-stretching PTFE membrane and its properties

A new idea regarding improvement of the elastic recovery property of a PTFE/PU compound membrane through a co-stretching process was put forward. The experimental results show that the PTFE/PU membrane has great elastic recovery owing to PU. When the longitudinally stretching ratio of PTFE is 200%, the traverse stretching ratio is 850%, and the thickness of PU is 0.03 mm. When the longitudinally and traverse elastic recovery of PTFE/PU is 82.1% and 88.6%, respectively, the porosity is 78.0%, mean pore size is 0.382 μm, and the water vapour permeability is 9330 g/24 h m². It has been used for the SARS protective clothing in China.

Solid phase extraction for the speciation and preconcentration of inorganic selenium in water samples: A review

Selenium is an essential element for the normal cellular function of living organisms. However, selenium is toxic at concentrations of only three to five times higher than the essential concentration. The inorganic forms (mainly selenite and selenate) present in environmental water generally exhibit higher toxicity (up to 40 times) than organic forms. Therefore, the determination of low levels of different inorganic selenium species in water is an analytical challenge. Solid-phase extraction has been used as a separation and/or preconcentration technique prior to the determination of selenium species due to the need for accurate measurements for Se species in water at extremely low levels. The present paper provides a critical review of the published methods for inorganic selenium speciation in water samples using solid phase extraction as a preconcentration procedure. On the basis of more than 75 references, the different speciation strategies used for this task have been highlighted and classified. The solid-phase extraction sorbents and the performance and analytical characteristics of the developed methods for Se speciation are also discussed.     

Novel Sorbent Extraction Technique Using a Chelating Agent Impregnated Porous PTFE Filter Tube: Preconcentration of Rare Earth Elements (REEs) with Bis(2‐Ethyl‐Hexyl)Hydrogen Phosphate (HDEHP) Loaded Porous PTFE Filter Tube Prior to Determination by ICP‐MS

Abstract

Sorbent extraction and elution of rare earth elements (REEs) by using bis(2‐ethyl‐hexyl)hydrogen phosphate (HDEHP) impregnated porous PTFE filter tube were studied. A 100 ng amount of each REEs was quantitatively extracted by filtering 1000 mL of matrix‐free solution under pH 2.0–3.2. For a synthetic seawater sample, extractability of lighter REEs (La–Sm) was lowered; optimum pH range to simultaneously extract all REEs was shifted to 2.9–3.2, and limit of sample volume for quantitative extraction was decreased to 100 mL for La–Sm [although heavier REEs (Eu–Lu) were quantitatively extracted from 1000 mL]. Extracted REEs were quantitatively eluted by filtering through 5 mL of 10 mol/L^?1 hydrochloric acid to the tube. Hence, maximum preconcentration factors were of 200‐ and 20‐fold for Nd–Lu and La–Sm, respectively. Total recovery of 0.5–10 ng of REEs spiked to 300 mL of natural sea salt solution was tested; quantitative recovery (95.9% for Gd–102% for Eu) were obtained for all REEs except La (54.9%). The REEs in the natural sea salt solution were also determined by ICP‐MS after preconcentration with the present method [RSD=16% (La)–1.1% (Yb), n=3].

Thermal imidization of poly(pyromellitic dianhydride-4,4′-oxydianiline) precursors on fluoropolymers modified by surface graft-copolymerization with glycidyl methacrylate

Composite films of polyimide (PI) and poly(tetrafluoroethylene-co-hexafluoropropylene) (FEP) or of PI and poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) were prepared by thermal imidization of the poly(amic acid) (PAA) precursors of poly(pyromellitic dianhydride-4,4′-oxydianiline) (PMPA-ODA) on glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) graft-copolymerized FEP and PTFE films. The resulting PI/GMA-g-FEP and PI/GMA-g-PTFE composites exhibited T-peel adhesion strength of approximately 7.0 and 6.5 N/cm, respectively, compared to negligible adhesion strength for the laminates prepared from thermal imidization of the PAA on the pristine and the Ar plasma-treated FEP and PTFE films. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results revealed that both the PI/GMA-g-FEP and PI/FEP-g-PTFE composite films delaminated by cohesive failure inside the FEP and PTFE films, respectively. The so-delaminated PI films with a covalently tethered FEP or PTFE surface layer were highly hydrophobic, having static water contact angles above 140°. The highly hydrophobic property depends on both the composition and roughness of the delaminated surface.
