球壳烯类的化学修饰

自从Kratschmer和Huffman发表了较为简便的制备和分离碳-60,碳-70的方法以来,对于球壳烯类,特别是碳-60的表征和物化性质已进行了较为翔实的研究。关于球壳烯类的化学修饰,尽管起步较晚,对其兴趣也日益高涨。本文综述了球壳烯类的化学修饰,特别在球壳烯外壳的化学反应方面。     

Investigation of glow discharge plasma for surface modification of polypropylene

Material surface properties of polymers, plastics, ceramics and textiles can be modified by atmospheric or low‐pressure glow discharge plasma. The aim of the present work is to study the surface modification of biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) film in order to improve its hydrophilic and wetting properties. In this article we used low‐pressure, low‐temperature oxygen plasma for the surface treatment of BOPP. Scanning electron microscopy indicates that plasma treatment causes mainly physical changes by creating microcraters and roughness on the surface and increasing surface friction. Attenuated total reflectance infrared spectra show oxygen‐containing groups such as ? OH at 3513 cm^?1 and C?O at 1695 cm^?1. Microscopic investigations of water droplets on BOPP (treated, untreated) show that the interfacial adhesion of treated surfaces is increased. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Development and characterisation of a new interface for coupling capillary LC with collision-cell ICP–MS and its application for phosphorylation profiling of tryptic protein digests

A comparison of different nebulisers for direct hyphenation of capillary and nano liquid chromatography (Cap-LC, Nano-LC) and quadrupole-based collision cell inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (CC-ICP–MS) for phosphorylation profiling of tryptic protein digests is described. Helium was used as cell gas and specially tuned instrumental conditions were used to achieve background minimisation at the mass of phosphorus, because of kinetic energy discrimination of the interfering polyatomic ions. The proposed set-up is based on a modified capillary electrophoresis interface and a home-made 4 mL spray chamber. It enables the use of gradient conditions with a highly concentrated organic mobile phase as often used in protein phosphorylation analysis, without the need to apply membrane desolvation for removal of the organic phase or further background minimisation. No significant signal suppression or other negative effects caused by the organic mobile phase occur, because of the low flow rates used in Cap-LC and the robust plasma conditions of the CC-ICP–MS instrument. A tryptic digest of beta-casein was investigated as model compound to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed set-up for phosphorylation profiling in protein analysis using quadrupole based collision-cell ICP–MS as phosphorus-specific detector. Detection limits for phosphorylated peptides down to the sub picomole level were obtained. As a complementary technique, electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry (ESI–MS–MS) with data base searching was used for further characterisation of the phosphorylated peptides detected.     

CZE separations of basic proteins at low pH in fused silica capillaries with surfaces modified by silane derivatization and/or adsorption of polar polymers

Mixtures of several basic proteins have been used to test CZE capillaries with surfaces modified by new pretreatment procedures; the performance obtained has been compared with that achieved using capillaries treated by procedures described in the literature. It has been shown that addition of non-ionic polyvinylalcohols (PVA) to CZE buffer solutions deactivates even bare, i.e. untreated, fused silica surfaces and renders them suitable for separations of basic proteins. The performance obtained from such surfaces was comparable with that of capillaries modified by the more elaborate procedures of etching, silanol derivatization, and/or adsorptive coating (again with polymers). A home-made device is described which enables derivatization and coating reactions to be performed on fused silica capillaries under an inert atmosphere, i.e. one free from oxygen and water.     

提高非贵金属临氢脱腊催化剂异构化能力的研究

通过水热条件下合成分子筛试验条件的考察,获得了合成条件和性能良好的ZSM-8分子筛。采用无定形硅铝和ZSM-8分子筛制备出复合载体型的非贵金属临氢脱腊催化剂,通过锌和钨改性组分的添加,提高现有工业催化剂的异构化能力。实验结果表明,不同复合载体、改性组分对催化性能有较大影响,但改性组分的添加次序无明显作用。与以前β沸石基催化剂性能相比,ZSM-8基催化剂不仅提高了润滑油收率,而且产品润滑油的粘度指数也明显提高。催化性能的改进可以归结为改性后催化剂异构化能力的提高。     

Modification of Non-Hydrolytic Sol-Gel Derived Alumina by Solvent Treatments

The effect of wetting non-hydrolytic derived alumina xerogels with water and organic solvents in the 20–70°C range on the alumina's properties was investigated. Wetting with organic solvents does not affect the alumina. However, contact with water was found to change the sharp crystallization at 800°C to a continuous crystallization starting at 450°C. Water treatment for a day at room temperature (RT) followed by second calcination decreased the surface area by 10%. This decrease in surface area is less pronounced with increasing wetting periods. On the other hand water treatment at 50–70°C followed by a second calcination resulted in a surface area increase of up to 15%. Upon water treatment the total pore volume has decreased from 0.65 (cm³/gr) to 0.48 (cm³/gr) and the average pore size decreased from 6.8 nm to 4.1 nm. The Cl content was found to be uneffected by the water treatment, remaining at 2.5% wt. Wetting with water at elevated temperature (70°C) accelerated the morphological changes, eliminating the crystallization peak at 800°C in one hour. A dissolution-reprecipitation mechanism is suggested to explain the results. In addition, Mass-Spectroscopy of the effluent gas during heat treatment revealed the emission of CO₂ and water upon phase transition into -Al₂O₃, at 1150–1300°C.     

Effects of medium and chemical modification on thermal characteristics of Β-lactoglobulin

The thermal properties of -lactoglobulin (-LG) were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) under different medium conditions.pH, neutral salts, protein perturbants, and polyols all affected the DSC characteristics of -LG. Acylation with fatty acids also changed the thermal properties, particularly peak width at half-height. The results suggest that the structural stability of -LG is controlled by non-covalent forces, particularly electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. Disulfide bonds did not contribute to the thermal response of -LG. Fatty N-acyl-amino acids caused marked increases in thermal stability and decreases in denaturation enthalpy, and additional peaks were observed in the presence of some palmitoyl derivatives.Contribution No. 2310, Centre for Food and Animal Research.We thank D.

Study of metal-loaded activated charcoals for the separation and determination of selenium species by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis

Conversion of adsorption properties of activated charcoal (C^∗) by metal modification towards selenite, selenate and seleno-dl-methionine (Se-Met) was studied. Several metals were included in modification studies and also a procedure was developed for the separation and independent determination of microgram quantities of these selenium species in aqueous solution. Selenium species were collected one by one from the same sample solution onto collector material by adsorbing them directly or after complex formation onto different metal-loaded activated charcoals (MgC^∗ and FeC^∗). The mass of selenium in these collectors was measured directly by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF). Detection limits for all three selenium species were better than 6 μg corresponding to concentration of 60 μg/l with 0.100 l of initial sample volume.
