表面活性剂与高分子链混合体系的模拟

计算机模拟了高分子链对表面活性剂胶束形成过程的影响，以及高分子链构象性质随胶束化过程的变化.结果表明,当高分子链与表面活性剂之间的相互作用强度超过临界值后，高分子链的存在有利于表面活性剂胶束的形成.临界聚集浓度（CAC）与临界胶束浓度（CMC）的比值CAC/CMC随高分子链长的增大和相互吸引作用的增强而减小.在CAC之前，高分子链与表面活性剂分子只有动态的聚集；但在CAC之后，表面活性剂胶束随表面活性剂浓度X的增加而增大，并静态地吸附在高分子链上，形成表面活性剂/高分子聚集体.随着表面活性剂分子的加入，高分子链的均方末端距和平均非球形因子先保持恒定；从X略小于CAC开始， 和快速减小，至极小值后又逐渐增大.模拟结果支持高分子链包裹在胶束表面的实验模型.

Polymeric surfactants with tricyclic rigidity from natural rosin: Synthesis and dispersion of single-walled carbon nanotubes in aqueous solution

Polymeric surfactants from natural rosin containing a unique tricyclic rigid structure were prepared and their structures were characterized by IR, ¹H NMR and GPC. Their surface activities including hydrophile—lipophile balance values (HLB), emulsification properties, foaming properties, critical micelle concentration (CMC) and the minimum surface tension (γCMC) were evaluated. With the increase in ratio of hydrophobic to hydrophilic in polymeric surfactant, the CMC values of the surfactants decreased, and the emulsification and foaming properties of these surfactants increased, and the HLB values of them decreased. This type of polymeric surfactants was used to disperse single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in water, and their dispersal capacities were comparatively determined by UV-visible absorption spectroscopy. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to quantify the amount of surfactant attached onto the nanotubes. More intuitive image of their dispersion states were obtained by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results showed that this type of polymeric surfactants had good dispersion capacity and dispersion stability to SWCNTs in water through strong hydrophobic attraction and weak van der Waals interactions.     

XRD,TEM and thermal analysis of Fe doped boehmite nanofibres and nanosheets

Iron doped boehmite nanofibres with varying iron content have been prepared at low temperatures using a hydrothermal treatment in the presence of poly(ethylene oxide) surfactant. The resultant nanofibres were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). TEM images showed the resulting nanostructures are predominantly nanofibres when Fe doping is no more than 5%; in contrast nanosheets were formed if Fe doping was above 5%. For the 10% Fe doped boehmite, a mixed morphology of nanofibres and nanosheets were obtained. Nanotubes instead of nanofibres were observed in samples with 20% added iron. The Fe doped boehmite and the subsequent nanofibres/nanotubes were analysed by thermogravimetric and differential thermogravimetric methods. Boehmite nanofibres decompose at higher temperatures than non-hydrothermally treated boehmite and nano-sheets decompose at lower temperatures than the nanofibres.     

Flocculation and Coalescence of Oil-in-Water Poly(dimethylsiloxane) Emulsions

The stability of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) oil-in-water emulsions has been investigated in the presence of added NaCl as well as in the presence of added surfactant. The emulsions were prepared using a combination of nonionic (C(x)E(y), x and y represent the number of methylene (C) and ethylene oxide (E) groups, respectively) and cationic (quarternary alkylammonium) surfactants. The droplets were observed to exhibit weak flocculation in the presence of high NaCl concentration (1 M). Phase separation and optical microscopic observations revealed that the principal mechanism for emulsion destabilization at high salt concentration was coalescence, which was accelerated at elevated temperature (50 degrees C). The effective coalescence rate for diluted emulsions was investigated using photon correlation spectroscopy. The small effective Hamaker constant for PDMS is the primary reason for the slow rate of coalescence observed for the emulsions at neutral pH in the presence of NaCl. The stability of PDMS emulsions to flocculation is qualitatively similar to that reported for low Hamaker constant dispersions (e.g., microgel particles). Addition of cationic surfactants (cetyltrimethylammonium chloride and dodecyl dimethylbenzylammonium chloride) to the negatively charged droplets after preparation was shown to decrease the emulsion stability once the surfactant concentration exceeded the CMC. Electrophoretic mobility measurements showed that added cationic surfactant changed the sign of the droplet charge from negative to positive at concentrations well below the CMC. Charged micelles of the same sign as the droplets are electrostatically excluded from close approach to the droplet surface within a distance (varepsilon) which results in depletion flocculation.

Single-crystal nanoribbons, nanotubes, and nanowires from intramolecular charge-transfer organic molecules

Single-crystal one-dimensional (1-D) nanostructures of [2-(p-dimethyl-aminophenyl)ethenyl]-phenyl-methylene-propanedinitrile (DAPMP) have been prepared by a simple solution process without the assistance of added surfactant, catalyst, or template under ambient condition. The approach exploits the directional supramolecular interaction induced by strong donor-acceptor dipole-dipole supramolecular interaction in the growth of 1-D nanostructures. By varying the process temperatures, the DAPMP nanostructures can be controllably prepared as either nanoribbons, nanotubes, or nanowires with high morphological and chemical purities. Significant changes in optical properties were observed for nanostructures of different morphology.

Formation mechanism of nanotubes comprising layers of PbS nanoparticles in polymer-surfactant solutions

The crystallization of PbS in aqueous solutions containing the surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and hydrophilic polymers resulted in a novel type of metastable nanotubes, the walls of which consist of layers of ordered PbS nanoparticles, apparently separated by layers of surfactant molecules. Information on the mechanism of formation of these structures was obtained by focusing on the roles of the polymer, and of the insoluble lead dodecyl sulfate (Pb(DS)2) present in the system. TEM investigations of the early stages of crystallization revealed the coexistence of PbS and Pb(DS)2 precipitates, the latter being surprisingly important for nanotube formation, and allowed to follow the evolution of layered structures from combination of the two types of crystals. Six different hydrophilic polymers have been used, which interact with SDS with varying strengths. Surprisingly, and in contrast to previous hypotheses, layered nanostructures were observed in all polymer solutions, regardless of the strength of polymer-surfactant interactions. This indicates that, although the presence of a polymer is necessary, polymer-SDS interactions are not a driving force for the formation of the layered structures and nanotubes. On the contrary, the interactions between the polymer chains and the growing particles appear to be of the utmost importance. Results presented here can be interpreted in terms of two alternative mechanisms for layered nanostructure and nanotube formation.     

Metal and Metal Oxide Nanostructures Prepared by Electrical Arc Discharge Method in Liquids

In this review, the importance of electrical arc discharge technique in liquids in synthesis of various nanostructures from carbon based materials to metal and metal oxide nanostructures with their general and specific properties, especially the photocatalytic performance of metal oxide nanostructures is studied. The effect of arc current on size distribution, morphology and physicochemical properties of metal and semiconductor nanostructures was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and UV–Vis spectroscopy. WO₃ Cubic nanostructures with 30 nm mean particle size were formed during the discharge process in water. Discharge between zinc electrodes in water leads to formation of rod like and semi spherical ZnO nanostructures with 15–20 nm diameter range. ZrO₂ nanoparticles were formed using zirconium electrodes in water. Photodegradation of Rhodamine B (Rh. B) shows that the as prepared nanostructures in this method have potential ability for environmental purifications. Also, using silver electrodes in water leads to formation of silver nanoparticles with 8–15 nm average particle size. Moreover, a novel method for synthesis of gold nanoparticles without using gold electrodes is presented. Finally, the future outlook of this technique in synthesis of various nanocrystalline materials is presented.     

Vibrational and electrical investigations of a uniaxially stretched polystyrene/carbon nanotube composite

Multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/polystyrene (PS) composite materials were prepared in the absence and in the presence of a surfactant. TEM analysis reveals the formation of chains made of several nanotubes tied up together upon application of the surfactant while an almost random distribution is observed without any treatment. These nanotubes are seen to be highly oriented in the uniaxially stretched composite. It is shown that the presence of the surfactant and the alignment reduce electrical conductivity while polymer chain orientation remains insensitive to these parameters.     

Structure formation in metal complex/polymer hybrid nanomaterials prepared by miniemulsion

Polymer/complex hybrid nanostructures were prepared using a variety of hydrophobic metal β-diketonato complexes. The mechanism of structure formation was investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) in the liquid phase. Structure formation is attributed to an interaction between free coordination sites of metal β-diketonato complexes and coordinating anionic surfactants. Lamellar structures are already present in the miniemulsion. By subsequent polymerization the lamellae can be embedded in a great variety of different polymeric matrices. The morphology of the lamellar structures, as elucidated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), can be controlled by the choice of anionic surfactant. Using sodium alkylsulfates and sodium dodecylphosphate, "nano-onions" are formed, while sodium carboxylates lead to "kebab-like" structures. The composition of the hybrid nanostructures can be described as bilayer lamellae, embedded in a polymeric matrix. The metal complexes are separated by surfactant molecules which are arranged tail-to-tail; by increasing the carbon chain length of the surfactant the layer distance of the structured nanomaterial can be adjusted between 2 and 5 nm.     

Enhancing the pyrolysis of scrap rubber for carbon nanotubes/graphene production via chemical vapor deposition

Carbon nanostructures are considered nowadays as very important materials for both fundamental research and industrial applications because of their well-defined morphologies, which leads to excellent performance in various fields. This study presents the preparation of carbon nanostructures starting from cheap source represented by scrap rubber after pursuing optimized pyrolysis of scrap rubber at 500^oC as deduced from thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The resulting cracked hydrocarbons from pyrolysis were collected over a well-designed Fe-Ni-Cu/MgO as catalyst via chemical vapor deposition (CVD), in which a growth temperature of 750^oC was undertaken for 60 min. A further attempt was elaborated where the scrap rubber was exposed to thermal aging at 90^oC for 14 days prior to CVD of its pyrolysis products in order to enhance the cracking process and increase the yield of the lighter hydrocarbons produced which leads to formation of well-defined carbon nanostructures. Characterizations on the produced carbon nanostructures were achieved using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Raman spectroscopy. The adsorption of methylene blue on the carbon nanostructures was also studied. The characterizations confirmed that the morphology of the resulting carbon nanostructures derived from scrap rubber without prior thermal aging composed of graphene sheets wrapping carbon nanotubes (CNTs-A). After thermal aging of scrap rubber prior to pyrolysis and CVD, the produced carbon nanostructures composed principally of CNTs (CNTs-B) in a well-defined form in higher yield. The Langmuir model appeared to be best-fitting the adsorption of MB on both samples. High monolayer adsorption capacity of 95 mg MB/g was accomplished in case of CNTs-A versus 60 mg MB/g in case of CNTs-B, respectively. Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis.) spectroscopic study revealed that the presence of MB molecules on the surface of CNTs may enhance the electronic properties of the prepared samples.
