Untersuchungen zum Verhalten der Pt-Metalle gegenüber festen und flüssigen Kationenaustauschern mit Hilfe der Radiotracermethode

Mit Hilfe radioaktiver Nuklide wurde die Aufnahme der Pt-Metalle aus chloridhaltigen Lösungen sowoht durch feste (Wofatit KPS) als auch durch flüssige Kationenaustauscher (Bis-2-äthylhexylphosphorsäure) bei Variation des pH-Wertes, der Vorbehandlung sowie der Edelmetallkonzentration bestimmt. Pt und Ir wurden nur geringfügig, Pd und Rh dagegen deutlich stärker adsorbiert. Beide Austauschertypen zeigten qualitativ das gleiche Verhalten. Die gefundenen Abhängigkeiten der Adsorption wurden auf das komplexchemische Verhalten der Pt-Metalle zurückgeführt. Es werden Verfahren zur schnellen radiochemischen Reinigung der benutzten Nuklide angegeben.

Multifunctional triphenylamine polymers synthesized via direct (hetero) arylation polymerization

The design rules for creating multifunctional organic electronic materials are currently limited. By copolymerizing twisted triphenylamine (TPA) and electron rich dioxythiophene (XDOT) monomers via Direct (Hetero) Arylation Polymerization (DHAP), a set of polymers are obtained that perform as yellow to transmissive electrochromic (EC) films with up to 45% contrast, as well as in electroluminescent (EL) applications, achieving a luminance of ∼450 cd/m² in yellow‐green polymer light‐emitting diodes (PLEDs). In addition, polymerizing TPA with a donor‐acceptor‐donor monomer results in a low‐bandgap polymer that achieves power conversion efficiencies up to 2.5% when blended with PC₇₁BM in conventional organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices. Incorporation of TPA units into the polymer backbone largely breaks any aggregation and ordering in the solid‐state, leading to highly soluble materials that form smooth, reproducible thin films. The TPA unit also serves to break conjugation throughout the polymer backbone, providing precise control over optical and electronic properties through choice of comonomer. These results suggest that TPA copolymers can be useful for achieving multi‐functionality without sacrificing facile solution processability, making them promising candidates for multifunctional devices like dual EC/EL displays. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

15N-Traceruntersuchungen zum Mechanismus der N2O-Bildung in Böden

Nitrous oxide is a potential environmental hazard responsible for the green house effect and the destruction of the ozone layer in the lower stratosphere. Biological denitrification under anaerobic conditions in soils results in the formation of both N₂O and N₂, whereby highly nitrogen-fertilized agricultural soils contribute to a considerable extent of the N₂O emission. Latest results in the literature indicate that nitrous oxide can also be formed as a byproduct of the microbial nitrification. This is of importance for soils in central Germany because of the non-existence of typical denitrification conditions in a semiaride climate.

This study was conducted to measure the path of N₂O formation in Haplic Phaeozen: using [¹⁵N] ammonium and [¹⁵N] nitrat and a GC-MS aided incubation system. The kinetic isotope method was used to evaluate the experimental data. The results are:

- Under anaerobic conditions (～ 90% of the water holding capacity = WHC) N₂O originates mainly from the nitrate pool by denitrification.

- As expected, the N₂O formation is low under aerobic conditions (～ 80% WHC) but the gas originates directly from the ammonium and not from the nitrate pool, probably as a byproduct of the nitrification process.

Induced Electronic and Thermal Effects of 86 MeV Nickel Ions in Bisphenol-A Polycarbonate

Bisphenol-A polycarbonate films were irradiated with 86 MeV swift heavy nickel ions at varying fluences, ranging from 1 × 10¹¹ to 1 × 10¹³ ions cm^?2, under vacuum at room temperature, to analyze the induced electrical and thermal modifications. AC conductivity measurements and UV-visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques were applied to analyze the changes. A significant, exponential increase in conductivity at higher frequency was observed with the increase of nickel ion fluence. UV-visible analysis corroborated the results of the AC conductivity measurement, revealing the increase in size of the carbon clusters embedded in the polymer network, with the increase of heavy ion fluence. FTIR analysis revealed the formation of alkene and alkyne end groups at higher doses, which further supported the suggestion that the variation in electrical properties induced by the ion irradiation of the polymer was due to development of a carbonaceous phase inside the polymer due to the irradiation. Thermal analysis, i.e., TGA and DSC patterns, showed that chain-scission was the leading phenomena in the heavy ion-irradiated polycarbonate samples, resulting in degradation of their thermal stability.

Differentiation and characterization of isotopically modified silver nanoparticles in aqueous media using asymmetric-flow field flow fractionation coupled to optical detection and mass spectrometry

The principal objective of this work was to develop and demonstrate a new methodology for silver nanoparticle (AgNP) detection and characterization based on asymmetric-flow field flow fractionation (A4F) coupled on-line to multiple detectors and using stable isotopes of Ag. This analytical approach opens the door to address many relevant scientific challenges concerning the transport and fate of nanomaterials in natural systems. We show that A4F must be optimized in order to effectively fractionate AgNPs and larger colloidal Ag particles. With the optimized method one can accurately determine the size, stability and optical properties of AgNPs and their agglomerates under variable conditions. In this investigation, we couple A4F to optical absorbance (UV–vis spectrometer) and scattering detectors (static and dynamic) and to an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer. With this combination of detection modes it is possible to determine the mass isotopic signature of AgNPs as a function of their size and optical properties, providing specificity necessary for tracing and differentiating labeled AgNPs from their naturally occurring or anthropogenic analogs. The methodology was then applied to standard estuarine sediment by doping the suspension with a known quantity of isotopically enriched ¹⁰⁹AgNPs stabilized by natural organic matter (standard humic and fulvic acids). The mass signature of the isotopically enriched AgNPs was recorded as a function of the measured particle size. We observed that AgNPs interact with different particulate components of the sediment, and also self-associate to form agglomerates in this model estuarine system. This work should have substantial ramifications for research concerning the environmental and biological fate of AgNPs.
