表面活性剂对疏水缔合水凝胶性能的影响

通过丙烯酰胺(AM)和丙烯酰胺基十八羧酸钠(NaAAS)共聚合,在没有任何外加化学交联剂的情况下,分别在水溶液和十二烷基硫酸钠(SDS)溶液中通过自由基聚合制备了疏水缔合水凝胶,命名为HA凝胶和SHA凝胶.系统研究HA凝胶和SHA凝胶的机械拉伸性能发现,调节AM和NaAAS的含量,可以使SHA凝胶具有相较不含SDS的HA凝胶更好的力学拉伸性能.HA凝胶在水中不溶解且在纯化和溶胀过程中几乎没有损失,而SHA凝胶体系中的SDS可以扩散出凝胶网络溶解到水中,使得SHA凝胶表现出更加明显的溶胀-去溶胀-平衡溶胀行为;在盐水中由于疏水缔合得到加强,HA凝胶和SHA凝胶都表现出化学凝胶的溶胀特点.在常温下HA凝胶不能实现自愈合,而SHA凝胶具有较好的自愈合能力,并且自愈合效果可以通过SHA凝胶中SDS和聚合物固含量调节.

Unperturbed dimensions of poly(2-methyl-6-phenyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) and poly(2,6-diphenyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) chains

The unperturbed chain dimensions of unfractionated poly(2-methyl-6-phenyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) and poly-(2,6-diphenyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) have been measured by combining molecular weight data from light scattering with intrinsic viscosity data in chloroform. The unperturbed chain dimensions of the former polymer were also measured directly by light scattering dissymmetry in a critical consolute solvent mixture (methyl cyclohexane: 1,4-dioxane 50:50 by volume). The results of these measurements and of measurements reported by other investigators are satisfactorily explained by postulating no dimension-expanding prejudice in azimuthal angle in chain conformers of the 2,6-substituted-1,4-phenylene oxide polymers. This corresponds to equal population of the two chain rotation energy minima at azimuthal angles 90° and 270°. Accepting this postulate, one calculates from the observed chain dimensions that the C? O? C bond angle is 118–120° in these aromatic polyethers in solution.     

超声作用对超分子水凝胶结构及性能的影响

采用一种简便方法,以戊二酸酐和3-羟基2-氨基吡啶合成了一种新的凝胶因子3-羟基-2-[N-(羧丙基羰基)氨基]吡啶(简称SWG),并采用IR、1H-NMR和元素分析确认其结构.红外光谱中2576cm-1和1906cm-1峰的出现证明羧基与吡啶基间形成了氢键.于20°C的超声仪中冷却1.5wt%的SWG水溶液,在1min内形成了超分子水凝胶.基于扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、示差扫描量热仪(DSC)及凝胶-溶液破坏温度(Tgel)分析表明,在凝胶化过程中,SWG自组装形成纤维状网络结构.随着超声功率由200W增加到500W,纤维宽度由8μm逐渐减小到2μm,凝胶网络密度逐渐增大,可冻结水含量逐渐增加,Tgel从60℃增加到70℃.因此,通过改变超声功率可有效控制凝胶的结构及性能.进一步增加SWG的浓度,可使纤维宽度及网络密度均增加,并导致凝胶的Tgel升高.采用多晶X射线衍射仪(XRD)分析表明,在凝胶形成过程中,SWG分子自组装出现明显的择优取向.

X-ray structural investigation of gossypol and its derivatives XXIII autoclathrates based on a mixed gossypol — 1,4-Dioxane matrix

Gossypol forms various complexes with the isomeric dioxanes. The clathrate with 1,4-dioxane is the only complex of gossypol in which the intrinsic symmetry of the gossypol molecule — the symmetry of a twofold axis — is retained. In this complex, two out of the three 1,4-dioxane molecules belonging to each gossypol molecule participate in the construction of a mixed H-bound gossypol -dioxane matrix, while the third molecule plays the part of guest, the guest molecules having no H-bonds with the host matrix and undergoing desolvation at 108–110°C.     

Headspace gas chromatographic determination of 1,4-dioxane with adsorption preconcentration on silica modified with λ-carrageenan

Organosilica materials containing λ-carrageenan on their surface are synthesized. The conditions for the immobilization of the polysaccharide, such as phase contact time and pH and concentration of solutions, are optimized. It is shown that the chemisorption of the polysaccharide passes through ion exchange multipoint immobilization, which provides a high hydrolytic stability of the prepared organosilica. The rate of washing of λ-carrageenan to the solution does not exceed 0.5%. The physical and chemical characteristics of the new material are studied. In particular, it is shown that the material is completely stable up to 200°C and reversibly desorbs water at 120°C; it well adsorbs 1,4-dioxane from the gas phase and desorbs it under heating to 70°C. This ensures the use of the prepared carrageenan-containing material as an adsorbent for a solid-phase cartridge designed for the adsorption preconcentration of 1,4-dioxane in its headspace gas chromatographic determination in samples of nonionic surfactants. The developed procedure ensures the determination of 1,4-dioxane by gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector in the concentration range 0.012–3.750 mg/L with a limit of detection of 0.0014 mg/L. Preconcentration lowers the limit of detection in the determination of 1,4-dioxane by 50 times.     

Preparation and properties of a novel solution of hydrogen bromide (HBr) in 1,4-dioxane: An alternative reagent to HBr gas without protic solvents

A solution of hydrogen bromide (HBr) in 1,4-dioxane was prepared and investigated for its ability to brominate alcohols, and hydrobrominate alkenes. This study revealed that the brominating ability of this HBr/1,4-dioxane solution is equal or superior to that of hydrobromic acid or HBr in acetic acid. The solution of HBr in 1,4-dioxane is robust, exhibiting no decomposition of the solvent, and retaining 97% of its original concentration, when kept at ?25 °C for 30 days. This solution is a liquid alternative to HBr gas without protic solvents.     

Morphology and structure of nylon‐2,14 single crystals from dilute solution

A perfect single crystal of nylon‐2,14 was prepared from 0.02% (w/v) 1,4‐butanediol solution by a “self‐seeding” technique and isothermal crystallization at 120 and 145 °C. The morphology and structure features were examined by transmission electron microscopy with both image and diffraction modes, atomic force microscopy, and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD). The nylon‐2,14 single crystal grown from 1,4‐butanediol at 145 °C inhabited a lathlike shape with a lamellar thickness of about 9 nm. Electron diffraction and WAXD data indicated that nylon‐2,14 crystallized in a triclinic system with lattice dimensions a = 0.49 nm, b = 0.51 nm, c = 2.23 nm, α = 60.4°, β = 77°, and γ = 59°. The crystal structure is different from that of nylon‐6,6 but similar to that of other members of nylon‐2Y. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 40: 1913–1918, 2002     

Oxidative polymerization of p-alkylphenols catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase

Enzymatic oxidative polymerization of p-alkylphenols using horseradish peroxidase as catalyst has been carried out in two polymerization solvent systems: a mixture of phosphate buffer (pH 7) and 1,4-dioxane, and a reverse micellar solution, yielding powdery polymeric materials. The polymer yield was much dependent upon the type of alkyl group in the monomer as well as the solvent type. In case of the polymerization of umbranched alkylphenols in the aqueous 1,4-dioxane, the polymer yield increased with increasing chain length of the alkyl group from 1 to 5, and the yield of the polymer from hexyl or heptylphenol was almost the same as that of the pentyl derivative. The relationship between the type of substituent and the polymer yield in the reverse micellar system was different from that in the aqueous 1,4-dioxane; the highest yield was achieved from ethylphenol. The resulting polymers had molecular weight of several thousands. The polymer was estimated to be composed from a mixture of phenylene and oxyphenylene units from IR analyses. TG measurement exhibited that the polymer had relatively high thermal stability. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 35: 1453–1459, 1997     

Preparation of thin plate-like calcium phosphate particles with slit-shaped micropores and their molecular sieve effect

The formation of plate-like calcium phosphate particles with slit-shaped micropores produced from the forced hydrolysis reaction of 10?mM Ca(OH)₂, 3.2?mM triphosphate(tripolyphosphate, tpp; $ {{\text{P}}_3}{\text{O}}_{{10}}^{{5 - }} $ ) and 20?mM HCl mixed solution at 100?°C for 2?h were investigated. The molecular sieve effect of produced particles was also explored by using five kinds of adsorptives with various molecular diameters. The large thin plate-like particles as prepared exhibited a large and sharp peak at 2θ?=?6.929° with small diffraction patterns of β-Ca₂P₂O₇. This characteristic peaks at 2θ?=?6.929° suggested that the particles possess a layer structure with ordered basal plane and the large thin plate-like particles are made up of thin sheets. However, the large peak at 2θ?=?6.929° shifted to higher 2θ value after evacuated the particles at 50～200?°C, and these characteristic peak was diminished after treated over 300?°C. The interlayer distances of basal plane were estimated to be 1.280 to 0.980?nm. TG and FTIR measurements disclosed that large amounts of water molecules exist in the particles. It was also revealed that tpp molecules are not completely hydrolyzed to phosphate (orthophosphate, op; $ {\text{PO}}_4^{{3 - }} $ ) ions but still remain tpp and diphosphate (pyrophosphate, pp: $ {{\text{P}}_2}{\text{O}}_7^{{4 - }} $ ) ones, and are adsorbed in slit-shaped micropores. The N₂ adsorption isotherms for the particles were of Type II and they did not change significantly by changing the evacuation temperature from 25?°C to 300?°C. On the contrary, the amount of adsorbed H₂O molecules on the particles after evacuated at 25 and 50?°C steeply increased at ca. 0.3?<?p/p ⁰ ?<?0.6 to provide a step-like adsorption isotherm, but it disappeared after evacuated over 75?°C. From the molecular adsorption experiments employing adsorptives with different molecular diameters, it was indicated that the slit-shaped micropores possess a width less than 0.353?nm being exhibits a high selective adsorption of H₂O molecules into slit-shaped ultramicropores that are accessible to H₂O molecules but not to N₂ and other adsorptive ones. It was indicated that ultramicropores can be formed by the narrowing effect of residual tpp and pp ions unhydrolyzed in the slit-shaped micropores. The residual tpp and pp ions may serve for the adsorption of H₂O molecules by their strong hydrogen bonding nature.     

Kinetics of the liquid-phase oxidation of 1,4-dioxane in the presence of inhibitors

The kinetics of 1,4-dioxane oxidation initiated by azodiisobutyronitrile in the temperature range from 323 to 353 K are studied from the rate of oxygen absorption. The oxidation proceeds in the regime of a nonbranched chain reaction with quadratic-law chain termination. The apparent rate constants (fk ₇) of 1,4-dioxane oxidation inhibition by 2,6-ditert-butyl-4-methylphenol and quercitin are measured. Quercitin is not inferior to ionol in inhibition efficiency.
