A new copolyesters of poly(2-[4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenoxy]ethyl-co-1,4-cyclohexylenedimethylene terephthalate) (PHCT) with different compositions were synthesized from terephthalic acid, 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol and hydroquinone bis(2-hydroxyethyl) ether (HQEE) via esterification-polycondensation reaction. The synthesized copolyesters were analyzed by 1 H-NMR, FT-IR, GPC, intrinsic viscosity, DSC, TGA and tensile testing, respectively. The 1 H-NMR and FT-IR analysis confirm the successful introduction of HQEE into poly(1,4-cyclohexylenedimethylene terephthalate (PCT) chains. The introduction of HQEE into PCT chains can effectively lower the melting point of PCT, making it easier to process. The glass transition temperature of PHCT is higher than 70 ℃ and it has the comparable thermal stabilities to PCT. In addition, introducing HQEE into PCT chains can effectively improve the molecular weights of PCT, thus imparting PHCT with better mechanical performance relative to PCT. The PHCT is a tough polymer, which owns the higher Young’s modulus (above 300 MPa), the higher tensile strength (above 39 MPa) and the higher elongation at break (above 226%).

Enhancing the flame retardancy of electrolytes and the stability of lithium anodes is of great significance to improve the safety performance of lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries. It is well known that the most commonly used ether based electrolyte solvents in Li–S batteries have a lower flash point and higher volatility than the ester electrolyte solvents in Li-ion batteries. Hence, lithium–sulfur batteries have greater safety risks than lithium-ion batteries. Herein, ethoxy(pentafluoro)cyclotriphosphazene (PFPN), which is commonly used as a flame retardant for ester electrolytes in lithium-ion batteries, is utilized as both a film-forming electrolyte additive and a flame retardant additive for the ether electrolyte to investigated its applicability in Li–S batteries. It is found that the ether electrolyte containing PFPN not only has good flame retardant properties and a wide potential window of about 5 V, but also can form a stable SEI film on the surface of a lithium anode. As a result, with the ether-based electrolyte containing 10 wt% PFPN, Li–Cu and Li–S batteries all delivered a stable cycling performance with a high coulombic Efficiency and a long-lifespan performance, which were all superior to the batteries using the ether-based electrolyte without PFPN. This study demonstrates an effective solution to solve the problems of flammable ether-based electrolytes and reactive lithium anodes, and it may contribute to the development of safe Li–S batteries.

In this work, the thermal conductivities of toluene, cyclohexane, and diethyl ether were measured from 291 to 351 K at pressures up to 15.1 MPa. The binary systems of toluene–cyclohexane, toluene–diethyl ether, and cyclohexane–diethyl ether were also measured from 291 to 351 K at pressures 0.1 and 10.1 MPa. The relative expanded uncertainty of the obtained data was estimated to be ±2% with a confidence level of 0.95 (k = 2). The linear thermal conductivity model was used to correlate the pure components as a function of temperature and pressure. The thermal conductivities of binary systems were fitted as a function of temperature and composition. For pure components, the maximum values of absolute percentage deviation (AAD) and maximum absolute percentage deviation (MAD) are 0.45 and 0.87%, respectively. For binary systems, the maximum values of AAD and MAD are 0.56 and 1.79%, respectively.

As the most important phenolic biopolymer in nature, lignin shows promising application potentialities in various bioactivities in vivo and in vitro, mainly including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hypolipidemic, and antidiabetic control. In this work, several carbon-based solid acids were synthesized to catalyze the fragmentation of organosolv lignin (OL). The generated lignin fragments, with controllable molecular weight and functional groups, were further evaluated for their application in the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The results suggested that the urea-doped catalyst (SUPC) showed a more excellent catalytic performance in producing diethyl ether insoluble lignin (DEIL) and diethyl ether soluble lignin (DESL). In addition, the lignin fragments have a good therapeutic effect on the cell model of T2DM. Compared with the insulin resistance model, DEIL obtained by catalytic depolymerization of OL with SUPC could improve the glucose consumption of insulin-resistant cells. Moreover, low-concentration samples (50 μg/mL) can promote glucose consumption (19.7 mM) more than the traditional drug rosiglitazone (17.5 mM). This work demonstrates the prospect of depolymerized lignin for the prevention and treatment of T2DM and provides a new application field for lignin degradation products.

Phenethyl phenyl ether (PPE) was selected as a typical lignin model compound and hydrogenated and cleaved over two readily accessible nickel-based catalysts, which could be easily separated from the product mixture. The results revealed that the reduction of the nickel catalyst with gaseous hydrogen produced a species capable of achieving higher activity towards C-O-C bond cleavage compared to the Ru/C and Pd/C catalysts. The selectivity of the C-O-C bond cleavage over the Ni/C catalyst was 85%, and higher than the corresponding values in the Ru/C (40%) and Pd/C (69%) systems. Using the carbothermal reduction method for the production of the Ni/C-C catalyst, the conversion and selectivity levels reached 99%, with 40% of the benzene rings in PPE being reserved. In comparison, no benzene ring containing products wer observed over the noble metal catalysts. This difference was attributed to the interaction between the carbon support and the nickel nanoparticles. 摘要 研究了Ni基催化剂上木质素模型化合物苯基苯乙醚中C–O–C键加氢裂解性能. 结果表明, 14;Ni/C催化剂显示出优异的加氢裂解能力, 14;苯基苯乙醚的转化率达到99%以上.

The catalytic selective etherification of 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (5-HMF) is considered as a feasible route to prepare the biofuels from biomass feedstocks. In this work, a novel solid acid catalyst derived from the flower-like MoS 2 is synthesized by combination of the facile hydrothermal method and reduction process. Therein, the number of Lewis and Bronsted acidic sites derived from the exposed Mo edges of MoS 2 can be efficiently regulated by changing the hydrogen annealing conditions. The prepared MoS 2 -450-R catalyst exhibited a prominent activity for the conversion of 5-HMF to 5-(methoxymethyl)furanal dimethyl acetal (5-MFDMA) through the tandem acetalization and etherification under N 2 atmosphere, in which a 99.0 % conversion with 83.7 % selectivity of 5-MFDMA is obtained. Further investigations revealed that the abundant acidic sites of MoS 2 -450-R plays a crucial role on the reaction of 5-HMF with methanol. Finally, based on the characterization of catalyst and reaction phenomena, a possible reaction network for the acetalization and etherification of 5-HMF with the methanol has been proposed.

A quaternary ammonium salt gemini surfactant (C 12 N) 2 O with diethyl ether as the spacer group was synthesized by dodecyl dimethyl amine and 2-chloroethyl ether. The structure of the product was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectra ( 1 H NMR), which showed that the structure of the synthesized product was consistent with the theoretical structure. We tested the surface tension of (C 12 N) 2 O at 25°C and found the critical micelle concentration (CMC) was roughly 2 orders of magnitude lower than that of dodecyl trimethylamine chloride (DTAC). Gemini structure and the unique diethyl ether spacer group endowed the novel amphiphile excellent properties including low contact angle and high antistatic property. (C 1 2 N) 2 O showed good compatibility with alcohol ether sulfate (AES) and dodecylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) in surfactant mixed systems. When the ratio of (C 12 N) 2 O:AES was 1:4 and (C 12 N) 2 O:LAS 1:9, the emulsifying properties were preferable to single surfactant.

The densities and viscosities of BF 3 ·anisole and BF 3 ·phenetole complex were determined at T = (283.15 to 303.15)K under atmospheric pressure. The molar ratios of the complexes ranged from 0.0080 to 0.9588 for BF 3 ·anisole and 0.0090 to 0.9850 for BF 3 ·phenetole. The measured densities and viscosities of both complexes were well correlated by modified Guimarães' equation and extended Jones–Dole equation, respectively. The apparent molar volumes were calculated using densities, and the limiting partial molar volumes were obtained by regression analysis. Arrhenius-type equation was adopted to get viscous flow activation energy through data fitting of viscosity values.

Development of selective cataluminescence (CTL) sensors toward volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is of great importance to environmental analysis and daily chemicals safety. Although some reports for the determination of VOCs based on CTL have been reported, part of them suffered relatively low selectivity because of their high sensitivity toward interferents. In this study, mesoporous TiO 2 nanoparticles have been exploited to detect diethyl ether with the usage of a 440 nm bandpass filter. The proposed method showed high selectivity toward diethyl ether over other VOCs, such as acetaldehyde, acetone, butanone and butanol, etc. Such a high selectivity was majorly attributed to the difference of CTL emission profiles of various VOCs reaction intermediates, and only diethyl ether exhibited strong CTL emission at about 440 nm. Under the optimal conditions, diethyl ether could be detected ranging from 2.0 to 50.0 mM. Furthermore, the practical application of this proposed CTL sensor for diethyl ether was validated with artificial samples and commercial perfumes. In general, such a simple method with high selective detection through controlling detection range could be extended to other analytes.

The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity of Pt-based electrocatalysts in alkaline solution is typically limited by the rate of water dissociation. Herein, we report a facile one-step strategy in the synthesis of Pt/Ni(OH) 2 heterojunction for enhanced HER activity. Ultrathin Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets decorated with uniformly dispersed Pt nanoparticles at average sizes of 2.2 nm are in-situ grown on nickel foam (NF) with binder-free feature under mild conditions due to induction by ethylene glycol diethyl ether, even without adding extra Ni 2+ sources. The synthesized Pt/Ni(OH) 2 /NF shows superior HER activity in 1.0 M KOH solution, achieving low overpotentials of 42, 91, and 114 mV at current densities of 10, 100, and 200 mA cm −2 and outstanding durability for 25 h at 25 mA cm −2 without noticeable Pt agglomeration. This work offers a mechanistic insight into one-step fabrication of Pt/Ni(OH) 2 -based catalyst with high activity and stability for HER.

Selective and controllable cataluminescence (CTL) sensors for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are significant for chemical safety, environmental monitoring, health effects on human beings, and so forth. Most of the exploited CTL-based sensors suffer relatively low response and poor selectivity because of their high sensitivities to interferential substances. In this investigation, dendritic fibrous nano-silica & titania (DFNST) spheres have been synthesized as novel sensing materials and the corresponding DFNST-based CTL sensor has been fabricated to detect diethyl ether with high selectivity via a method of utilizing one 440 nm bandpass filter. The as-prepared DFNST hybrids not only keep the excellent dendritic fibrous morphology but also bear ca. 21 wt% catalytic titanium oxide of anatase crystalline structure. The DFNST-based sensor exhibits extremely strong CTL emission at 440 nm toward diethyl ether against other VOCs like acetone, ethyl acetate, butanol, and so forth. The high response can be attributed to the unique architectural texture of DFNST. Under the optimum parameters, ether could be easily detected in a wide range from 2.0 to 40.0 mM with a fine detection limit of 1.55 mM (S/N = 3). Furthermore, the working life of this CTL sensor is satisfactory with outstanding stability and durability, far from damaging the morphology and activity of the DFNST sensing material. In conclusion, it is expected that this novel sensing material, the relevant CTL sensor, and the approach of employing the bandpass filter will be significant for the detection of diethyl ether in actual applications.
