Impact of Magnesium(II) on Beryllium Fluorides in Solutions Studied by 19F NMR Spectroscopy

Beryllium fluorides are widely used in protein phosphorylation studies to get stable transition state analogs or near attack conformers, which has attracted much attention. BeF₃^? is one of the optimal phosphoryl (PO₃^?) analogs for its identical geometry and charge, and Mg²⁺ naturally participates in the phosphoryl binding in biological systems. In solutions, BeF₃^? coexists with other beryllium fluorides (BeF₄^2?, BeF₂ and BeF⁺) and magnesium fluorides, and there are equilibriums between these species. In this article, ¹⁹F NMR spectroscopy was applied to the investigation of the impact of magnesium(II) on beryllium fluorides. It has been found that when Mg²⁺ was introduced into the solutions, the chemical shifts, the intensities and the line widths of ¹⁹F signals of various beryllium fluoride complexes were changed. After ionic strength correction, these effects were remarkable only for BeF₄^2? and BeF₃^?, especially BeF₄^2?, when the concentration of the fluoride ion is relatively low. Mechanism of the effects is proposed which involves ion pair formation between Mg²⁺ and beryllium fluorides.     

Study of In Situ Formation of Magnesium Hydroxide Whisker via Basic Magnesium Chloride Whisker Regulated by Organic Parcels at Low Temperature

In this work, we demonstrate an in situ phase conversion from basic magnesium chloride（BMC） into magnesium hydroxide whisker by using polar organic solvent at low temperature. The morphology and phase composition of magnesium hydroxide whiskers prepared at different reaction temperature, alkali concentration and organic solvent were analyzed by X-ray diffraction（XRD） and scanning electronic microscope（SEM）. It was found that when one of the organic solvents such as absolute ethyl alcohol, butanol, polyethylene glycol（PEG-400）, acetone, et al. was selected as the template, the precursor BMC can transform into whisker-like magnesium hydroxide through precipitate transformation in low temperature and non-hydrothermal system. It can be reasonably explained that the regulation of Mg^2＋ solubility by those organic solvents and the sustained release of Mg^2＋ dissolution by organic adsorption played a significant role in the formation of magnesium hydroxide whisker via BMC whisker as the precursor.

An η3‐Bound Allyl Ligand on Magnesium in a Mechanochemically Generated Mg/K Allyl Complex

Milling two equivalents of K[1,3‐(SiMe₃)₂C₃H₃] (=K[A′]) with MgX₂ (X=Cl, Br) produces the allyl complex [K₂MgA′₄] ( 1 ). Crystals grown from toluene are of the solvated species [((η⁶‐tol)K)₂MgA′₄] ([ 1 ?2(tol)]), a trimetallic monomer with both bridging and terminal (η¹) allyl ligands. When recrystallized from hexanes, the unsolvated 1 forms a 2D coordination polymer, in which the Mg is surrounded by three allyl ligands. The C?C bond lengths differ by only 0.028 Å, indicating virtually complete electron delocalization. This is an unprecedented coordination mode for an allyl ligand bound to Mg. DFT calculations indicate that in isolation, an η³‐allyl configuration on Mg is energetically preferred over the η¹‐ (σ‐bonded) arrangement, but the Mg must be in a low coordination environment for it to be experimentally realized. Methyl methacrylate is effectively polymerized by 1 , with activities that are comparable to K[A′] and greater than the homometallic magnesium complex [{MgA′₂}₂].     

Corrosion behavior of AZ91D magnesium alloy in distilled water

The corrosion of AZ91D magnesium alloy has received extensive attention due to the continuous expansion of its application field in recent years. However, the corrosion of AZ91D magnesium alloy in distilled water is relatively few. In this paper, the corrosion behavior of AZ91D magnesium alloy was studied in distilled water by electrochemical tests in combination with weight loss and surface analysis methods. The results indicated that the corrosion rate of AZ91D magnesium alloy increased with the increase of temperature and immersion time. The increase of the corrosion rate of AZ91D magnesium alloy with the increase of immersion time might be attributed to the damage of the structure of corrosion product film by hydrogen evolution, significantly accelerating the anodic process of AZ91D magnesium alloy. It was interesting that, in distilled water, the EIS of AZ91D magnesium alloy excluded an inductive arc in the low frequency region, which indicated that there was no the adsorption and desorption of aggressive ions or the damage and repair of film. The corrosion product film of AZ91D magnesium alloy in distilled water was composed of a compact inner corrosion product film and a loose outer corrosion product film.     

Magnesium hydroperoxyacetate (MHPA) and magnesium dihydroperoxide (MDHP): New antibacterial agents for fibrous substrates

Water-dispersable products have been prepared from the reaction of magnesium acetate tetrahydrate with hydrogen peroxide at mole ratios of 1 : 2 to 1 : 40 to produce compositions with active oxygen or peroxide contents of 1–30%. The products are believed to be stoichiometric mixtures of HOO Mg OAc and HOO Mg OOH that vary in composition with the molar ratios used. These new compounds are hydrolytically stable at ambient temperatures for extended periods (at least 60 days) and thermally stable below 300°C. Pad-cure processes are described for applying the above reaction products as a dispersion in water or aqueous hydrogen peroxide or as a foam in aqueous hydrogen peroxide to impart antibacterial activity to celulosics, synthetic fibers and fiber blends. The textiles are treated with dispersions or foam containing 10–17% of the reaction products derived from mole ratios of 1 : 2 to 1 : 40 magnesium acetate tetrahydrate: hydrogen peroxide. On subsequent heating for 2–4 min at 120–150°C, washing and drying, the modified textiles contain durably bound active oxygen or peroxide (0.1–1.7%) that has activity against representative gram-positive and gramnegative bacteria for up to 50 launderings.     

Molecular dynamic study of temperature dependence of mechanical properties and plastic inception of CoCrCuFeNi high-entropy alloy

Molecular dynamics simulations are performed to study mechanical characteristics and homogeneous plastic inception of CoCrCuFeNi high-entropy alloy at various temperatures under uniaxial tension. It is found that the elastic modulus and ultimate tensile strength increase with temperature decreasing. A notable softening effect is observed at the elastic deformation stage caused by the decrease of the interatomic force gradient. Extrinsic stacking faults and deformation twins are extensively observed, which are formed via intrinsic stacking faults overlap.     

Carbon Encapsulation of High Entropy Alloy Nanoparticles with Extraordinary Coercivity and Saturation at Room Temperature

Owing to their unique properties and technological potential, high entropy alloys (HEAs) have become the subject of great interest in the materials science community. HEAs consist of more than four principle elements in equimolar ratio so their configurational entropy is intrinsically greater than one-principle element based. The increasing surface energy and chemical tendency toward clustering of like atoms at low dimension, however, make production of HEA-nanoparticles (HEA-NPs) extremely difficult. A facile production of HEA-NPs inside carbon nanotubes and nanoparticles is demonstrated in this work. Electron microscopic and elemental analyses confirm encapsulated to be solution phase; some embrace carbides and form multidomains with chemical composition ranging from quaternary to quinary phase. Multidomains and nonmagnetic centers create hardening thus promoting coercivity significantly at room temperature. Alloying induces electron redistribution into high spin states, accounting for observed high saturation. Configurational entropy of encapsulated HEA-NPs lies on a range comparable with bulk.
