Sol-gel synthesis and characterization of adsorbent and photoluminescent nanocomposites of starch and silica

Using sol-gel method, mesoporous and photoluminescent silica nanocomposites of soluble starch have been synthesized and characterized. Different ratios of H₂O, TEOS and EtOH were used at fixed template (soluble starch) and catalyst (NH₄OH) concentrations to obtain materials of different performances in terms of heavy metal binding from a solution which has been monitored using Cd(II) as representative divalent heavy metal ion. Optimum material was obtained when H₂O, TEOS and EtOH were used in 14:1:2 ratio. This sample was not only an efficient metal ion adsorbent but also had an intense luminescence in ultra-violet region and potentially may be used in silicon-based UV-emitting devices. Metal binding by the material was further enhanced after calcination (at 800 °C in air) while its luminescence had a multipeak profile in UV-visible region. In a batch adsorption study, calcined hybrid composite (0.25 g/L) could remove 98.5% Cd(II) from 100 mg/L Cd(II) solution in 2 h. The chemical, structural and textural characteristics of the synthesized materials have been investigated using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-rays Diffraction (XRD), Thermal Analysis (TGA/DTA), Photoluminescence (PL), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller Analysis (BET) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).

Surface topography and crystal and domain structures of films of ferroelectric copolymer of vinylidene difluoride and trifluoroethylene

The crystallization of a copolymer from a solution at room temperature is found to lead to the formation of a metastable structure, characterized by the coexistence of ferroelectric and paraelectric phases. The fraction of the latter decreases after annealing above the Curie point. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has revealed a difference in the surface topographies between the films contacting with air and the films contacting with a glass substrate. The microstructure of copolymer chains has been investigated by ¹⁹F NMR spectroscopy. The chain fragments with “defect” attached monomeric units are ejected to the surface. The character of the ferroelectric domains formed during crystallization and their size distribution are analyzed.

     

Chemistry and Electrocrystallization of Organic Metals and Superconductors

Abstract

Considerable variation in the conditions of electrochemical crystal growth of TMTSF₂X (i.e., constant current versus constant potential, ambient versus inert atmosphere, etc.) and in the purity of the constituents (donor, electrolyte, solvent) does not significantly affect the unusual low-temperature properties of this class of materials. Our results suggest that the electrocrystallization procedure may be self-purifying by selecting for conducting crystal phases with constituents having specific oxidation potentials and solubility properties. However, doping solutions with structurally and chemically similar constituents (i.e., TMTTF, and IO^? ₄ in CIO^? ₄) leads to their incorporation in the crystal structure where they have a profound effect. Several mole percent of these dopants suppress superconductivity in the PF^? ₆ and CIO^? ₄ salts, and increase and broaden the metal-insulator phase transition.     

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Morphology of Thomsonite and Edingtonite

The hydrothermal treatment of different glasses of the composition 2 Na₂O–8 CaO–10 Al₂O₃– 20 SiO₂ and 2 BaO–2 Al₂O₃–6 SiO₂ at one kilobar pressure in a temperature-range between 80 °C and 230 °C lead to the formation of the zeolite-minerals thomsonite (orthorhombic symmetry space-group Pbmn, a = 13.05 Å, b = 13.09 Å and c = 13.22 Å), and edingtonite (orthorhombic symmetry, space-group: P2,2,2, a = 9.55 Å, b = 9.67 Å and c = 6.52 Å). Under the chosen hydrothermal conditions both mineral phases are formed in the whole temperature interval.

Numerical and experimental analysis of periodic patterns and sedimentation of lysozyme

This paper deals with experimental investigation, mathematical modelling and numerical simulation of the crystallization processes induced by counter diffusion method of a precipitant agent in a lysozyme protein solution. Novel mathematical strategies are introduced to simulate the experiments and in particular to take into account the kinetics of the growth process and the motion of the crystals due to the combined effect of gravitational force and viscous drag if the sedimenting process is allowed (protein chamber free of gel). Comparison between experimental observations and numerical simulations in the presence of convection and sedimentation and without them provides a validation of the model. The crystal formation in gel results modulated in space. If the gel matrix is not present, convective cells arise in the protein chamber due to local inversions in the density distribution associated to nucleation phenomena. As time passes, these vortex cells migrate towards the top of the protein chamber exhibiting a different wave number according to the distance from the gel interface. The sedimentating particles produce a wake due to depletion of protein from the surrounding liquid. The models and the experiments may represent a useful methodology for the determination of the parameters and conditions that may lead to protein crystallization.

The single-crystal X-ray structure determinations of the title compounds revealtrans structures. Ring (A) C_10–15 and ring (B) C_1–6, are practically planar in both structures with dihedral angels of 61.3(3) and 63.6(2)°, respectively.¹H nmr, u.v. and i.r. spectra are also reported.     

Crystal and molecular structures of benz-p-nitroanilide and benz-p-methoxyanilide

The crystal structures of the two carboxylic amides C₁₃H₁₀N₂O₃ (I) and C₁₄H₁₃NO₂ (II) have been determined by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least squares. The predominant structural feature is the hydrogen bonding (N-H?O=C) which influences the conformations of both structures.     

Structure simulation and study of electronic and dielectric properties of two derivatives of benzamide

First-principles calculations based on density functional theory have been done on the chlorinated phenyl benzamides; 4-chloro-phenyl-benzamide – C13H10ClNO, and 2-chloro-3-chloro-phenyl-benzamide – C13H9Cl2NO. The triclinic structure of 4-chloro-phenyl-benzamide and orthorhombic structure of 2-chloro-3-chloro-phenyl-benzamide have been simulated and the structural parameters have been found out. Electron density of states has been computed in the materials using the electronic structure calculation code of Quantum-Espresso which gives a band gap of 0.74 eV in case of 4-chloro-phenyl-benzamide. This value is close to the value exhibited by semiconducting materials and photonic band gap materials. Band gap in case of 2-chloro-3-chloro-phenyl-benzamide comes out to be 3.08 eV. This value is in the range exhibited by NLO materials. Dielectric constant of the materials has been computed. The value of dielectric constant in 4-chloro-phenyl-benzamide comes out to be 2.78, 3.14, and 3.92 along X, Y, and Z axes, respectively, and the average value comes out to be 3.28. The value of dielectric constant in case of 2-chloro-3-chloro-phenyl-benzamide comes out to be 1.39, 1.53, and 1.34 along X, Y, and Z axes, respectively, and the average value comes out to be 1.42. Thus, additional chlorination is increasing the band gap and decreasing the dielectric constant in phenyl benzamide.
