New and novel organic-inorganic type crystalline ‘polypyrrolel/polyantimonic acid’ composite system: preparation, characterization and analytical applications as a cation-exchange material and Hg(II) ion-selective membrane electrode

A new phase of ‘organic-inorganic’ composite system, polypyrrole polyantimonic acid, prepared by mixing the inorganic precipitate of hydrated antimony oxide with organic conducting polymer i.e., polypyrrole, providing a novel granular form hybrid cation-exchanger suitable for column operation with better chemical and thermal stability, good ion-exchange capacity, reproducibility and selectivity for heavy metals. The physicochemical properties of this material were studied using elemental analyses, AAS, SEM, XRD, FTIR and simultaneous TGA-DTA studies. Ion-exchange capacity, pH-titrations, elution and distribution behavior were also carried out to characterize the material. Distribution studies revealed the cation-exchange material to be highly selective for Hg(II) and its selectivity was performed by achieving some important binary separations like Hg²⁺-Zn²⁺, Hg²⁺-Ni²⁺, Hg²⁺-Cu²⁺, Hg²⁺-Fe³⁺, Hg²⁺-Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺-Mg²⁺ etc. on its column. Using this electroactive composite material, a new heterogeneous precipitate based selective ion-sensitive membrane electrode was fabricated for the determination of Hg(II) ions in solutions. The membrane electrode is mechanically stable, with a quick response time, and can be operated within a wide pH range. The selectivity coefficients for different cations determined by mixed solution method were found to be less than unity The electrode was also found to be satisfactory in electrometric titrations.     

Synthesis, characterization and thermal properties of novel epoxy containing silicon and phosphorus nanocomposites by sol-gel method

Organic-inorganic hybrids were prepared using diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) type epoxy and tetraethoxysilane via the sol-gel process. The DGEBA type epoxy was modified by a coupling agent to improve the compatibility of the organic and inorganic phases. The sol-gel technique was used successfully to incorporate silicon and phosphorus into the network of hybrids increasing flame retardance.Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and ²⁹Si nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy were used to characterize the structure of the hybrids. In condensed siloxane species for TEOS, silicon atoms through mono-, di-, tri-, and tetra-substituted siloxane bonds are designated as Q¹, Q², Q³, Q⁴, respectively. For 3-isocyanatopropyltriethoxysilane and diethylphosphatoethyltriethoxysilane, mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-substituted siloxane bonds are designated as T¹, T², T³. Results revealed that Q⁴, Q³, T³ are the major environments forming a network structure. The morphology of the ceramer was examined by scanning electron microscopy and Si mapping. Particle sizes were below 100 nm. The hybrids were nanocomposites. The char yield of pure epoxy resin was 14.8 wt.% and that of modified epoxy nanocomposite was 31 wt.% at 800 °C. A higher char yield enhances the flame retardance. Values of limiting oxygen index of pure epoxy and modified epoxy nanocomposites are 24 and 32, respectively, indicating that modified epoxy nanocomposites possess better flame retardance than the pure epoxy resin.     

Combined investigation of experimental characterization and theoretic calculation on the structure of dextran-Fe3O4 clusters

Dextran-Fe₃O₄ hybrid clusters were fabricated by coprecipitating ferric and ferrous ions in the presence of dextran, and after characterization of these clusters combined with calculation based on classical nucleation theory, a structure model of these hybrid clusters was proposed. The hybrid cluster was believed including small Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles and dextran which acted as both nucleating agent and stabilizer, so that exist in both the inside of magnetite nanoparticles and the periphery of the hybrid clusters. Besides, the effects of W_CD (weight_{iron cation}:weight_dextran) and molecular weight of dextran on the size, morphology and magnetic property of clusters were also investigated in this paper. It was found that the variation of W_CD and molecular weight of dextran have great effect on the size of the hybrid clusters, but have almost no effect on the size of the Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles. The characterization of magnetic property demonstrated that the Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles are of a single domain and the saturation magnetization was affected by the size of dextran-Fe₃O₄ hybrid clusters.     

Conservation of [(C2H4NH3)3N]2·(ZrF7)2·H2O layers during the topotactic dehydration of [(C2H4NH3)3N]2·(ZrF7)2·9H2O

Tren amine cations [(C₂H₄NH₃)₃N]³⁺ and zirconate or tantalate anions adopt a ternary symmetry in two hydrates, [H₃tren]₂·(ZrF₇)₂·9H₂O and [H₃tren]₆·(ZrF₇)₂·(TaOF₆)₄·3H₂O, which crystallise in R32 space group with a_H = 8.871 (2) Å, c_H = 38.16 (1) Å and a_H = 8.758 (2) Å, c_H = 30.112 (9) Å, respectively. Similar [H₃tren]₂·(MX₇)₂·H₂O (M = Zr, Ta; X = F, O) sheets are found in both structures; they are separated by a water layer (O_w(2)-O_w(3)) in [H₃tren]₂·(ZrF₇)₂·9H₂O. Dehydration of [H₃tren]₂·(ZrF₇)₂·9H₂O starts at room temperature and ends at 90 °C to give [H₃tren]₂·(ZrF₇)₂·H₂O. [H₃tren]₂·(ZrF₇)₂·H₂O layers remain probably unchanged during this dehydration and the existence of one intermediate [H₃tren]₂·(ZrF₇)₂·3H₂O hydrate is assumed. O_w(1) molecules are tightly hydrogen bonded with -NH₃⁺ groups and decomposition of [H₃tren]₂·(ZrF₇)₂·H₂O occurs from 210 °C to 500 °C to give successively [H₃tren]₂·(ZrF₆)·(Zr₂F₁₂) (285 °C), an intermediate unknown phase (320 °C) and ZrF₄.
