Synthesis and Characterization of Silicone Modified Polyurethane Surfactant Useable at High Temperature

A series of novel silicone modified polyurethane (Si-PU) surfactants were successfully synthesized by using hydroxypropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (HPMS), polyethylene glycol (PEG), dimethylolpropionic acid (DMPA) and isophoronediisocyanate (IPDI). The chemical structure of the surfactant was confirmed by FTIR and ¹H-NMR. TEM photographs showed that the micelles of the Si-PU surfactants dispersed in aqueous solution were spherical with the particle size in the range of 100–400 nm. Surface tension measurements indicated that these surfactants had low surface tension to 29.9 mN·m^?1and a definite critical micelle concentration to, approximately 5.0×10^?4–7.5×10^?4mol·L^?1. When the content of HPMS was 20 wt%, the surfactant's, emulsifying performance was superior to the traditionally available Span80/Tween80 mixed emulsifiers. In addition to that, no phase transition temperature was detected from 20°C to 90°C by fluorescence probe and DSC measurements, confirming the high thermal stability of the micelles.     

Novel Flame‐Retardant and Thermally Stable Poly(Amide‐imide)s Based on Bicyclo[2,2,2]oct‐7‐Ene‐2,3,5,6‐Tetracarboxylic Diimide and Phosphine Oxide in the Main Chain: Synthesis and Characterization

Six novel poly(amide‐imide)s PAIs 5a‐f were synthesized through the direct polycondensation reaction of six chiral N,N′‐(bicyclo[2,2,2]oct‐7‐ene‐tetracarboxylic)‐bis‐L‐amino acids 3a‐f with bis(3‐amino phenyl) phenyl phosphine oxide 4 in a medium consisting of N‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidone (NMP), triphenyl phosphite (TPP), calcium chloride (CaCl₂) and pyridine. The polymerization reaction produced a series of flame‐retardant and thermally stable poly(amide‐imide)s 5a‐f with high yield and good inherent viscosity of 0.39–0.83 dLg^?1. The resultant polymers were fully characterized by means of FTIR, ¹H NMR spectroscopy, elemental analyses, inherent viscosity, specific rotation and solubility tests. Thermal properties and flame retardant behavior of the PAIs 5a‐f were investigated using thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA and DTG) and limited oxygen index (LOI). Data obtained by thermal analysis (TGA and DTG) revealed that these polymers show good thermal stability. Furthermore, high char yields in TGA and good LOI values indicated that resultant polymers exhibited good flame retardant properties. N,N′‐(bicyclo[2,2,2]oct‐7‐ene‐tetracarboxylic)‐bis‐L‐amino acids 3a‐f were prepared in quantitative yields by the condensation reaction of bicyclo[2,2,2]oct‐7‐ene‐2,3,5,6‐tetracarboxylic dianhydride 1 with L‐alanine 2a , L‐valine 2b , L‐leucine 2c , L‐isoleucine 2d , L‐phenyl alanine 2e and L‐2‐aminobutyric acid 2f in acetic acid solution. These polymers can be potentially utilized in flame retardant thermoplastic materials.     

Source identification of nitrate by means of stable nitrogen isotopes in the river Daugava and loads of nitrogen to the Gulf of Riga

Nitrogen isotope ratio of nitrate provides a powerful tool to investigate nitrate sources and cycling mechanisms. Although the use of an isotope ratio method for ¹⁵N/¹⁴N allows identifying the nitrate sources in rivers by estimating a seasonal variation of N-NO₃ concentration, however, there are some restrictions. Nitrification, the conversion of NH₄⁺ to NO₃-, can proceed with significant nitrogen isotope fractionation, preferentially accumulating ¹⁴N in the produced NO₃-, and can make it difficult to identify the nitrate source with a high proportion of the isotope δ¹⁵N. However, the uptake and assimilation of NH₄⁺ and NO₃- have the capability of affecting isotopic compositions of riverine nitrogen compounds, and this may hinder the determination of whether the impact of the nitrate source with a high proportion of the isotope δ¹⁵N reduces. In addition, this study demonstrates that nitrate nitrogen concentration may correlate with δ¹⁵N_NO3 values both positively and negatively. Such correlations are the result of isotope effects during nitrogen transformation processes (e.g. nitrification and assimilation) and isotopic variability in the various nitrate sources. A comparison of NO₃- concentration and δ¹⁵N_NO3 can be used to further distinguish mixing from biological processing. However, in order to get a more precise answer regarding the nitrate sources, it would be useful to take both the data of nitrogen isotopes and data of oxygen isotopes present in nitrates.
