Novel Preparation of Polyethylene from Nano‐extrusion Polymerization Inside the Nanochannels of MCM‐41/MgCl2/TiCl4 Catalysts

The MCM‐41 and SiO₂ supported TiCl₄ and TiCl₄/MgCl₂ catalysts with different molar ratios of Mg/Ti were synthesized and used for ethylene polymerization under atmospheric pressure. The nanochannels of MCM‐41 serve as nanoscale polymerization reactor and the polyethylene nanofibers were extruded during the reaction. The nanofibers were observed in SEM micrographs of resulting polyethylene. The effect of MgCl₂ on catalytic activity and thermal properties of resulting polyethylene is investigated too. In the presence of MgCl₂, the catalytic activity increased and more crystalline polyethylene with higher melting points were formed. However, no fibers could be observed in the polyethylene prepared by SiO₂ supported catalysts.     

An efficient and mild protocol for the synthesis of unsymmetrical ureas in the absence of catalyst and additives

<正>A new practical method for the synthesis of unsymmetrical ureas was achieved by reaction of phenylurea with primary and secondary amines under neutral and mild condition in very good yields.The reaction took place in refluxing dioxane and does not require any catalyst or additives.

Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Ureas and S‐Thiocarbamates under Catalyst‐free Conditions in a [BMIM]BF4 Ionic Liquid

Unsymmetrical ureas and S‐thiocarbamates were prepared in good to excellent yields by direct condensation of phenylurea with amines and thiols in 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([BMIM]BF₄) without the addition of any additives. The [BMIM]BF₄ ionic liquid is a mild medium and can be recycled and reused several times.

Investigation of Electrochemical Copolymerization of 1‐Naphthylamineaniline in the Presence of Various Organic Sulfonic Acids

The electrochemical and electro activity properties of poly(aniline‐co‐1‐naphthylamine) thin films have been investigated in the presence of various organic sulfonic acids. Homo and copolymer thin films are synthesized electrochemically, under cyclic voltammetric conditions in aqueous solution of organic sulfonic acids (1 M), viz p‐toluene‐sulfonic acid (P‐TSA), methane‐sulfonic acid (MSA), 5‐sulfosalicylic acid (5‐SSA), camphor‐sulfonic acid (CSA) and dodecylbenzene‐sulfonic acid (DBSA) (0.25 M) on glass carbon (GC) electrode at room temperature. The cyclic voltammograms (CVs) show that the current densities are strongly influenced by the size and acidity of the organic acids which are present in electrolyte. Electocopolymerization was carried out at different ratios of NPA to ANI (0.07, 0.05, 0.03, 0.02, 0.014). The formation of copolymer was proved by cyclic voltammogram study.
