Simultaneous determination of peroxydisulfate and conventional inorganic anions by ion chromatography with the column‐switching technique

The application of ion chromatography with the column‐switching technique for the simultaneous analysis of peroxydisulfate and conventional inorganic anions in a single run is described. With this method, conventional inorganic anions were separated by consecutive elution through both the guard column and separation column, but peroxydisulfate that only passed through the guard column had a good peak shape and short retention time. A series of standard solutions consisting of target anions of various concentrations from 0.01 to 75 mg/L were analyzed, with a correlation coefficient (r) ≥ 0.9990. The limits of detection were in the range of 0.49–9.84 μg/L based on the S/N of 3 and a 25 μL injection volume. RSDs for retention time, peak area, and peak height were all <1.77%. A spiking study was performed with satisfactory recoveries between 97.6 and 103.4% for all anions. The quantitative determination of peroxydisulfate and conventional inorganic anions in surface waters was accomplished within 18 min by this column‐switching technique.     

Recent advances in polymer network liquid crystal spatial light modulators

Polymer network liquid crystal (PNLC) spatial light modulators are attractive for display and photonic applications because they can achieve submillisecond response time while keeping a large phase change. However, their on-state scattering caused by the grain boundary of LC multidomains hinders their applications. In this article, we review recent progress on the development of scattering-free PNLCs extending from short-wavelength infrared to visible region by reducing the domain sizes to ∼200 nm through low temperature curing process. To reduce operation voltage, both transmissive and reflective modes, LC material properties (birefringence and dielectric anisotropy), polymer composition and concentration, and pretilt angle effect are analyzed. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

High‐Tc Enantiomeric Ferroelectrics Based on Homochiral Dabco‐derivatives (Dabco=1,4‐Diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane)

1,4‐Diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (dabco) and its derivatives have been extensively utilized as building units of excellent molecular ferroelectrics for decades. However, the homochiral dabco‐based ferroelectric remains a blank. Herein, by adding a methyl (Me) group accompanied by the introduction of homochirality to the [H₂dabco]²⁺ in the non‐ferroelectric [H₂dabco][TFSA]₂ (TFSA=bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)ammonium), we successfully designed enantiomeric ferroelectrics [R and S‐2‐Me‐H₂dabco][TFSA]₂. The two enantiomers show two sequential phase transitions with transition temperature (T_c) as high as 405.8 K and 415.8 K, which is outstanding in both dabco‐based ferroelectrics and homochiral ferroelectrics. To our knowledge, [R and S‐2‐Me‐H₂dabco][TFSA]₂ are the first examples of dabco‐based homochiral ferroelectrics. This finding opens an avenue to construct dabco‐based homochiral ferroelectrics and will inspire the exploration of more eminent enantiomeric molecular ferroelectrics.     

Investigation of dense slurry suspensions with coaxial mixers: Influences of design variables through tomography and mathematical modelling

The coaxial mixers enhance the suspension of concentrated slurries in an agitated reactor. In this research work, the complex slurry suspension and dissemination behavior in a coaxial slurry mixing system (comprised of a close clearance anchor rotating with a low speed and an inner axial impeller rotating with a high speed) was analyzed employing ERT (electrical resistance tomography, a non-intrusive flow visualization technique), and computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The numerical models were validated by comparing the axial solid concentration profiles generated using the ERT data and the CFD simulation results. The influences of various important parameters such as the diameter of the inner axial impeller, the inner impeller type, and the inner impeller spacing on the hydrodynamic characteristics of the slurry suspensions in a coaxial mixing vessel were thoroughly analyzed. The radial and axial velocity profiles of solid particles were generated using the validated mathematical models. The assessment of energy loss due to the solid–solid collisions, the particle–fluid frictions, and the particle–vessel wall collisions was conducted. The evaluation of optimum inner impeller clearance and inner impeller diameter is essential to attain a high degree of solids suspension and dissemination in a coaxial slurry mixing system.

水合作用与 pH 调控两性离子聚合物刷的相变行为

本文基于Flory-Huggins理论,建立理论模型研究水合作用与pH调控两性离子聚合物(ZP)刷的相变行为.理论模型考虑ZP的水合作用,以及ZP刷体系中的静电作用.研究发现,在不同pH条件下,ZP刷的体积分数随着水合作的减弱而的增加.随着pH的变化,ZP刷构象随着水合性转变行为明显改变,这是由于pH调控ZP链单体带有过多的净电荷(正电荷或负电荷),致使ZP链内出现静电排斥导致ZP刷溶胀.另外,当ZP链单体呈现过多的净电荷,会在很大程度上决定ZP刷体系静电势,影响ZP刷的相变行为.通过考察体系自由能,我们还发现,ZP刷体系自由能呈现了极大值,随着pH值的变化,自由能呈现的极大值随之改变,由此表明了体系的不稳定性,进而导致ZP刷体系发生相变.     

溶致相分离法制备液晶光开关研究

以溶致相分离的方法制备了聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯（PMMA）基聚合物分散液晶（PDLC）,并对影响其光开关效应的因素做了较为系统的研究。结果表明,液晶含量从40％增到50％使得PDLC体系的透过率从62％升高到80％,从而减弱了光开关效应。进一步增加液晶含量不提高体系的透过率,却使光开关效应愈发不明显;固化温度从室温（22℃）增大到液晶清亮点附近（55℃）,则显著提高了光开关效应。
