Comparison of PVDF/MWNT,PMMA/MWNT,and PVDF/PMMA/MWNT nanocomposites: MWNT dispersibility and thermal and rheological properties

Pristine multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were incorporated into poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), and PVDF/PMMA blends to achieve binary and ternary nanocomposites. MWNTs were more compatible with the PVDF matrix than with the PMMA-containing matrices. MWNT addition did not alter the development of α-form PVDF crystals in the binary/ternary composites. Nucleation and overall isothermal crystallization of PVDF were enhanced by the presence of MWNTs, and enhancements were optimal in the PVDF/MWNT binary composites. Avrami analysis revealed that addition of MWNTs led to more extensive athermal-type nucleation of PVDF, and that PMMA slightly decreased the crystal growth dimension of PVDF. The equilibrium melting temperature (T_m°) of PVDF increased in the binary composites but remained nearly constant in the ternary system. Thermal stability was enhanced in the binary/ternary composites, and enhancements were more evident in the air environment than in nitrogen. Rheological property measurements revealed that the intensely entangled chains of high-molecular weight PVDF dominated the rheological response of PVDF-included samples in the melt state. A (pseudo)network structure was developed in each of the PVDF-included samples as well as in the 1 phr MWNT-added PMMA/MWNT composite. The storage moduli of the PVDF, PMMA, and PVDF/PMMA:1/1 blend increased to 37%, 22% and 34%, respectively, at 40 °C after addition of 1 phr MWNT.     

尿嘧啶和5-溴尿嘧啶的低温热容

采用综合物性测量系统(PPMS)的热容测量模块在1.9-300 K温度区间内对两种药物中间体(尿嘧啶和5-溴尿嘧啶)的低温热容进行了测量与研究. 结果表明, 在测量温区内两种化合物的低温热容随温度的上升而逐步增加, 无任何热异常现象产生; 在相同温度下, 5-溴尿嘧啶的热容数值始终高于尿嘧啶. 利用低温热容理论模型对热容数据进行了拟合, 并计算得到了0-300 K温区的摩尔熵变、焓变等热力学函数. 此外, 通过热容拟合数据计算得到的尿嘧啶和5-溴尿嘧啶在298.15 K的标准摩尔规定熵分别为(132.48±1.32)和(165.39±1.65) J·K^-1·mol^-1.     

Crystal structure and physical properties of quaternary clathrates Ba8ZnxGe46−x−ySiy, Ba8(Zn,Cu)xGe46−x and Ba8(Zn,Pd)xGe46−x

Three series of vacancy-free quaternary clathrates of type I, Ba₈Zn_xGe_46−x−ySi_y, Ba₈(Zn,Cu)_xGe_46−x, and Ba₈(Zn,Pd)_xGe_46−x, have been prepared by reactions of elemental ingots in vacuum sealed quartz at 800 °C. In all cases cubic primitive symmetry (space group Pm3?n, a∼1.1 nm) was confirmed for the clathrate phase by X-ray powder diffraction and X-ray single crystal analyses. The lattice parameters show a linear increase with increase in Ge for Ba₈Zn_xGe_46−x−ySi_y. M atoms (Zn, Pd, Cu) preferably occupy the 6d site in random mixtures. No defects were observed for the 6d site. Site preference of Ge and Si in Ba₈Zn_xGe_46−x−ySi_y has been elucidated from X-ray refinement: Ge atoms linearly substitute Si in the 24k site whilst a significant deviation from linearity is observed for occupation of the 16i site. A connectivity scheme for the phase equilibria in the “Ba₈Ge₄₆” corner at 800 °C has been derived and a three-dimensional isothermal section at 800 °C is presented for the Ba-Pd-Zn-Ge system. Studies of transport properties carried out for Ba₈{Cu,Pd,Zn}_xGe_46−x and Ba₈Zn_xSi_yGe_46−x−y evidenced predominantly electrons as charge carriers and the closeness of the systems to a metal-to-insulator transition, fine-tuned by substitution and mechanical processing of starting material Ba₈Ge₄₃. A promising figure of merit, ZT ∼0.45 at 750 K, has been derived for Ba₈Zn_7.4Ge_19.8Si_18.8, where pricey germanium is exchanged by reasonably cheap silicon.

Influence of physical properties and operating parameters on hydrodynamics in Centrifugal Partition Chromatography

Besides the selection of a suitable biphasic solvent system the separation efficiency in Centrifugal Partition Chromatography (CPC) is mainly influenced by the hydrodynamics in the chambers. The flow pattern, the stationary phase retention and the interfacial area for mass transfer strongly depend on physical properties of the solvent system and operating parameters. In order to measure these parameters we visualized the hydrodynamics in a FCPC-chamber for five different solvent systems with an optical measurement system and calculated the stationary phase retention, interfacial area and the distribution of mobile phase thickness in the chamber. Although inclined chambers were used we found that the Coriolis force always deflected the mobile phase towards the chamber wall reducing the interfacial area. This effect increased for systems with low density difference. We also have shown that the stability of phase systems (stationary phase retention) and its tendency to disperse increased for smaller values of the ratio of interfacial tension and density difference. But also the viscosity ratio and the flow pattern itself had a significant effect on retention and dispersion of the mobile phase. As a result operating parameters should be chosen carefully with respect to physical properties for a CPC system. In order to reduce the effect of the Coriolis force CPC devices with greater rotor radius are desirable.     

Medium effects on fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes for coumarin laser dyes

Fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes of coumarin dyes are sharply reduced in polar solvents if amine substituent groups are free to rotate. The polar solvent effect is interpreted in terms of relaxation of excited dye from an initial planar conformation to a twisted zwitterionic state.
