锑(Ⅲ)-2-(3,5-二溴-2-吡啶偶氮)-5-二乙胺基酚-溴代十六烷基三甲胺的络合物吸附波

在pH5.3的HAc－NaAc、2－（3，5－二溴－2－吡啶偶氮）－5－二乙氨基酚（3，5－Br2－PADAP）、溴代十六烷基三甲铵（CTMAB）溶液中，用线性扫描示波极谱法可得到锑（Ⅲ）的络合物吸附波。峰电位为－0.70V（vs．SCE）。二阶导数档峰高与Sb（Ⅲ）浓度在3．3X10-8～2．5X10－6mol／L范围内呈线性关系。检出限为8．2X10-9mol／L。用多种电化学方法研究了极谱波的性质及电极反应机理。络合物组成为Sb（Ⅲ）：3，5－Br2－PADAP＝1∶2。加入CTMAB可消除试剂峰且提高灵敏度。试验了30多种离子对峰电流的影响，用流基棉分离干扰离子。方法已用于矿样中锑的测定。     

附加压力与分散系统的稳定性

较详细地讨论了附加压力与分散系统稳定性间的关系,指出分散相附加压力的降低是分散系统趋向稳定的根本原因。以乳状液为例,附加压力降低不仅减少了液滴间相互碰撞的概率,而且更重要的是,它与液滴表面形成牢固的保护膜密切相关。只有当液滴的附加压力趋近0时,分散系统才达到热力学上稳定的状态,此时乳状液已变成了微乳状液。上述讨论也基本适用于固/液分散系统。     

Half‐sandwich Ruthenium (II) complexes with triphenylamine modified dipyridine skeleton and application in biology/luminescence imaging

Four half‐sandwich ruthenium^II (Ru^II) complexes with triphenylamine‐modifed dipyridine frameworks were synthesized and characterized. The cytotoxicity of target complexes toward A549 (lung cancer cells), HeLa (cervical cancer cells) and HepG2 (hepatoma cells) were obtained by the MTT assay, which were superior to cisplatin with the IC₅₀ values changed from 2.4 ± 0.1 μM to 9.2 ± 2.7 μM. Meanwhile, complexes possess the ability of antimetastasis to cancer cells. Ru^II complexes could be transported by serum albumin, catalyze the conversion of NADH (the reduced state of nicotinamide‐adenine dinucleotide) to NAD⁺ and induce the accumulation of reactive oxygen species, which confirmed the antineoplastic mechanism of oxidation. Ru^II complexes could enter A549 cells followed by a non‐energy dependent cellular uptake mechanism, target lysosomes with the Pearson's colocalization coefficient of 0.75, lead to lysosomal damage, disturb the cell cycle (S phase), and eventually induce apoptosis. The results demonstrate that these Ru^II complexes are potential anticancer agents with dual functions, including metastasis inhibition and lysosomal damage.     

沉积温度对硬质合金表面沉积的SiC薄膜的影响

采用强电流直流伸展电弧等离子体CVD技术,以Ar、H2和四甲基硅烷(TMS)为先驱气体,在YG6硬质合金衬底表面制备了SiC薄膜。实验结果表明:随着沉积温度的升高,薄膜的致密性和平整度提高;但当沉积温度过高时,SiC薄膜的表面开始具有含非晶碳球和呈花瓣状的疏松结构。在合适的沉积温度下,SiC薄膜的致密性和平整度较好,且其具有较好的附着力和一定的强度,而这样的SiC薄膜可以阻止在金刚石涂层沉积过程中硬质合金中含有的Co对金刚石相沉积过程的有害作用。     

Novel tri-carbazole modified fluorene host material for highly efficient solution-processed blue and green electrophosphorescent devices

A series of novel solution-processable small-molecule host materials: 2DPF-TCz, 2SBF-TCz, 27DPF-TCz, and 27SBF-TCz comprising a fluorene monomer as the rigid core and tri-carbazole as the periphery have been designed and synthesized, and their optical, electrochemical, and thermal properties have been fully characterized. The host materials exhibit high glass-transition temperatures (231–310 °C) and high triplet energy levels (2.61–2.73 eV). High-quality amorphous thin films can be obtained by spin-coating the host materials from solutions. It is found that the HOMO level of the host materials can be tuned by linking the tri-carbazole unit to the 2,7 positions of the fluorine core, resulting in appropriate HOMO energy levels (−5.36 to −5.23 eV) for improved hole-injection in the device. Solution-processed blue and green electrophosphorescent devices bases on the developed host materials exhibit high efficiencies of 21.2 and 34.8 cd A⁻¹, respectively.     

Comparison of microbiological loads and physicochemical properties of raw milk treated with single-/multiple-cycle high hydrostatic pressure and ultraviolet-C light

The effects of ultraviolet-C radiation (UV-C, 11.8?W/m²), single-cycle and multiple-cycle high hydrostatic pressure (HHP at 200, 400 or 600?MPa) on microbial load and physicochemical quality of raw milk were evaluated. Reductions of aerobic plate count (APC) and coliform count (CC) by HHP were more than 99.9% and 98.7%, respectively. Inactivation efficiency of microorganisms increased with pressure level. At the same pressure level, two-cycle treatments caused lower APC, but did not show CC differences compared with single-cycle treatments. Reductions of APC and CC by UV-C were somewhere between 200?MPa and 400/600?MPa. Both HHP and UV-C significantly decreased lightness and increased pH, but did not change soluble solids content and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances’ values. Two 2.5?min cycles of HHP at 600?MPa caused minimum APC and CC, and maximum conductivity. Compared with HHP, UV-C markedly increased protein oxidation and reduced darkening.     

Effect of vinyltriethoxysilane addition on the pyrolytic conversion of tetraethoxysilane based silica gel

The effect of vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES) addition on the pyrolytic conversion of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) based silica gel had been studied. Thermogravimetric analysis coupled with mass spectroscopy was carried out to study the thermal decomposition behavior of precursor gels. The ceramic yield of precursor gels was decreased with the increase of the VTES content. ²⁹Si magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance indicated that the incorporation of VTES into TEOS not only changed the composition and structure of precursor gels, but also increased carbon-enriched SiO _x C_4?x units of silicon oxycarbide ceramics during the pyrolysis conversion. The carbon content of SiOC ceramic was almost unchanged between 1,000 and 1,500 °C. However, the O/Si ratio of the silicon oxycarbide ceramic was reduced and the free carbon content was increased with the increasing molar ratios of VTES/TEOS. Moreover, the carbothermal reduction reaction led to the free carbon content decreased with the increase of the sintering temperature.
