Electrospun polyurethane (PU) based nanofibrous mats were fabricated from the solutions prepared with different volume ratios of N , N -dimethylformamide (DMF), methanol (MeOH), and dichloromethane (DCM). The membrane structures such as the nanofiber diameter, the pore size distribution, and the porosity were investigated in detail. And the morphological, mechanical, waterproof, and breathable properties of the membranes were used to estimate the characteristics of the membranes. Various solutions were compared to obtain porous nanofibrous membranes without beads or curls, which revealed that morphologies of PU fibrous membranes could be finely regulated by tuning the solvent volume ratios and the solution concentrations. The results showed that the nanofibrous membranes with the DMF/DCM solvents exhibited the high fiber diameter (500–700 nm) and the wide pore size distribution (0.6–1.2 µm). Besides, the water contact angle (WCA) of the PU nanofibrous film using the 100% DMF was 133°, but it could not persist for a long time. And the resultant membranes presented high hydrostatic pressure to 2.1 kPa, modest water vapor transmission rate of 10.1 kg/m 2 /day, as well as robust mechanical properties with tensile strength of 6.6 MPa, which are desirable in many important applications including protective clothing.

This paper presents the synthesis and characterization of two series of polymeric compounds comprising eight furan-based polyamides prepared via melt polycondensation at low temperatures using various combinations of five aromatic raw materials. The chemical and physical structures and thermal stabilities of the obtained polyamides were investigated by various characterization methods. In addition, the polyamides were subjected to solubility testing in five common organic solvents. The results showed that the proposed furan-based polyamides possessed thermal stabilities similar to those of conventional high-performance aromatic polyamides, but with greatly improved solubility. Accordingly, the introduction of furan groups increased the solubility of the polyamides with respect to the solubility of their individual precursors, which is highly advantageous for subsequent polyamide processing and expanding their range of potential applications. Graphical Two series of polymeric compounds comprising eight furan-based polyamides were prepared from five aromatic raw materials. The chemical and physical structures, thermal stabilities, and the solubility of these polyamides were characterized and verified. The results show that the proposed furan-based polyamides have similar thermal stabilities compared with those of conventional high-performance aromatic polyamides. The introduction of furan groups increases the solubility of the polyamides, which is highly advantageous for expanding their range of potential applications.

Hyperuricemia, characterized by elevated uric acid levels and subsequent crystal deposition, contributing to conditions such as gout, cardiovascular events, and kidney injury, poses a significant health threat, particularly in developed countries. Current drug options for treatment are limited, with safety concerns, leading to suboptimal therapeutic outcomes in symptomatic hyperuricemia patients and a lack of pharmaceutical interventions for asymptomatic cases. Distinguishing from the previous drug design strategies, we directly target uric acid, the pathological molecule of hyperuricemia, resulting in a pyrimidine derivative capable of increasing the solubility and excretion of uric acid by forming a complex with it. Its prodrug showed an anti-hyperuricemia activity comparable to benzbromarone and a favorable safety profile in vivo. Our finding provides a strategy purely based on organic chemistry to address the largely unmet therapeutic needs on novel anti-hyperuricemia drugs.

In this paper, three kinds of triphenyl imidazole-containing diamines including 2-phenyl-4,5-bis(4-(4-amino-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy)phenyl)imidazole (PBAI), 2-(4-methylphenyl)-4,5-bis(4-(4-amino-2-trifluoromethyl phenoxy)phenyl)imidazole (MPBAI) and 2-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-4,5-bis(4-(4-amino-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy)phenyl)imidazole (TFPBAI) were synthesized. Then, a series of polyimide (PI) films were prepared by the solution polymerization of the three diamines and various dianhydrides, such as 4,4′-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride (6FDA), 1,2,4,5-pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and 1,2,3,4-cyclobutanetetracarboxylic dianhydride (CBDA), followed by thermal imidization. The effects of chemical structures on the solubilities and thermal, optical and electrochemical properties of polyimides were explored. All the polyimides exhibited higher glass transition temperatures around 300 °C and excellent solubilities in common polar solvents. The polyimide films derived from CBDA or 6FDA showed better optical properties with light color and transparent characteristics. The fluorescence test showed that the photoluminescence color of CBDA-based polyimide films is in the blue range in the CIE 1931 spectrum, while the polyimide film based on PMDA and 6FDA presented black or weak yellow light. However, all these polyimides in solution exhibited similar blue luminescence. Electrochemical tests indicated that the HOMO and LUMO values of these films were around −6.5 and −3.6 eV, and the energy gap difference was about 3.0 eV. Therefore, the triphenyl imidazole-containing polyimides exhibit comprehensive performance, which will be expected as a new kind of functional material for certain application in the optical and optoelectronics fields.

Three kinds of naphthalene-containing diamines with –H, –CH3 or –CH(CH3)2 substituents at the ortho-positions of the aniline ring including 4,4′-(naphthalen-1-ylmethylene)dianiline (BAN-1), 4,4′-(naphthalen-1-ylmethylene)bis(2,6-dimethylaniline) (BAN-2) and 4,4′-(naphthalen-1-ylmethylene)bis(2,6-diisopropylaniline) (BAN-3) were synthesized via a simple one-step electrophilic substitution reaction. These diamines were then reacted with three commercial dianhydrides, via chemical imidization under microwave irradiation, to obtain nine types of polyimide (PI). It was found that the introduction of alkyl side groups can improve the solubility and optical transparency of PIs. Moreover, compared with BAN-2 based PIs containing –CH3 groups, BAN-3 based PIs containing –CH(CH3)2 groups exhibited better solubility and optical transparency (transmittances at 450 nm of over 86%). Meanwhile, due to the presence of the rigid naphthalene side groups, all the PIs possessed high thermal stability with a glass transition temperature (Tg) of over 290 °C and a decomposition temperature at 5% weight loss of over 510 °C under nitrogen. Furthermore, the Tg of PI-2B composed of BAN-2 and 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA) was found to be as high as 387 °C, which is comparable to that of the commercial and conventional PI material (Kapton®, Tg = 390 °C).

Here, we synthesized four kinds of monomers of 3,6-dibromo-(N-phenyl)carbazole with different substituent group, DCB, DDC, DNC and DTC, respectively, and used 4-(3-bromo-9H-carbazol-9-yl)benzaldehyde to react with triphenylamine (TPA) unit and hydrazine hydrate unit, respectively, to obtain the other two monomers, BCB-TPA and BCB-HH. Six novel polymers coded as PDCB-DF, PDDC-DF, PDNC-DF, PDCB-DTC-DF, PBCB-TPA-DF and PBCB-HH-DF, were synthesized by Suzuki reactions of 2,2'-(9,9-dioctyl-9H-fluorene-2,7-diyl)bis(1,3,2-dioxaborinane) with the six kinds of monomers and their electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical properties were investigated. The polymers showed good solubility and film-forming ability. Flexible or robust films of them could be readily obtained via solution-casting. These polymers showed the onset temperatures in the range of 300–470 °C when the 10% weight loss of polymers. The polymer films showed high coloration efficiency (CE) (196-376 cm 2 ·C −1 ) and electrochromic stability. These properties illustrate that the polymers have great application prospect as electrochromic materials.

The rapid expansion of a supercritical solution (RESS) process represents an attractive prospect for producing sub-micron and nano-particles of medical compounds with low solubility. The solubility of phenacetin in supercritical carbon dioxide was measured by the analytical-isothermal method at pressures ranging from 9.0 MPa to 30.0 MPa and temperatures ranging from 308.0 K to 328.0 K. The results show that the mole fraction solubility of phenacetin in supercritical carbon dioxide is up to 10 −5 . Four density-based semi-empirical models were introduced to correlate the experimental data. Agreement between the model predictions and experimental data is greater with the Adachi-Lu-modified Chrastil model than with the Chrastil model, Méndez-Santiago-Teja model, and the Bartle model and the average absolute relative deviation (AARD) observed is 0.0483. The preparation of fine phenacetin particles by the RESS process under different conditions of extraction temperatures (308.0–328.0 K), extraction pressures (9.0–30.0 MPa), nozzle temperatures (373.0–393.0 K), nozzle diameters (0.1–0.8 mm), and collection distance (20.0–40.0 mm) was investigated. The size and morphology of the resultant particles were analysed by SEM. A remarkable modification in size and morphology can be obtained by condition-optimisation.

A series of dicationic ionic liquids (ILs) including [C4(MIM)2][PF6]2, [C5(MIM)2][PF6]2, [C6(MIM)2][PF6]2 and [C4(PYR)2][PF6]2 were synthesized. Their thermal stability and melting points were analysed. It was found that dicationic ILs presented important implications in the design of homogeneous and heterogeneous system with water. A homogeneous system of dicationic ILs with water could be formed at a relatively high temperature and then a heterogeneous system was formed when the solution was cooled to a low temperature. The ILs recovered by altering the temperature were obtained in high percentage yields of [C4(MIM)2][PF6]2 (97.6%), [C5(MIM)2][PF6]2 (97.3%), [C6(MIM)2][PF6]2 (98.0%) and [C4(PYR)2][PF6]2 (94.2%). On the other hand, [C4(MIM)2][PF6]2 and [C5(MIM)2][PF6]2 exhibited good solubility in acetonitrile and acetone. A homogeneous system could be achieved with imidazolium-based ILs with a relatively low amount of water and acetonitrile at room temperature. All of the properties of dicationic ILs have a strong correlation with the nature of dications, the linkage chain and the symmetry of dications. Dicationic ILs may provide a new opportunity for some specific applications in order to enable the effective separation and isolation of products.

To enhance oil–water separation efficiency, it is urgent to synthesize novel membrane materials that exhibit high flux and high retention efficiency and excellent antisolvent property. Herein, a seeding–extension–bud protrusion procedure was developed to fabricate superhydrophobic separation membranes through UV-assisted grafting and covalent modification on a microporous polypropylene. The synthesized superhydrophobic membranes (PPN-HDI-TPFOS) exhibit a bud protrusion micro/nanostructure, which significantly increases the contact area between the membrane surface and the emulsion, as well as the collision among the emulsion droplets during the oil–water separation. This membrane shows high flux of up to 24 800 L m–2 h–1 for dichloromethane (DCM)/water immiscible oil–water mixtures and 6528 L m–2 h–1 for water-in-DCM emulsions, together with excellent water retention (>99%) as well as good antisolvent property. Moreover, it exhibits excellent retention rates (>98%) for other water-in-oil emulsions (kerosene, hexane, and cyclohexane). This work supplies a useful strategy to synthesize complex membrane with extremely high flux as well as high rejection rate.

Understanding plant uptake and translocation of nanomaterials is crucial for ensuring the successful and sustainable applications of seed nanotreatment. Here, we collect a dataset with 280 instances from experiments for predicting the relative metal/metalloid concentration (RMC) in maize seedlings after seed priming by various metal and metalloid oxide nanoparticles. To obtain unbiased predictions and explanations on small datasets, we present an averaging strategy and add a dimension for interpretable machine learning. The findings in post-hoc interpretations of sophisticated LightGBM models demonstrate that solubility is highly correlated with model performance. Surface area, concentration, zeta potential, and hydrodynamic diameter of nanoparticles and seedling part and relative weight of plants are dominant factors affecting RMC, and their effects and interactions are explained. Furthermore, self-interpretable models using the RuleFit algorithm are established to successfully predict RMC only based on six important features identified by post-hoc explanations. We then develop a visualization tool called RuleGrid to depict feature effects and interactions in numerous generated rules. Consistent parameter-RMC relationships are obtained by different methods. This study offers a promising interpretable data-driven approach to expand the knowledge of nanoparticle fate in plants and may profoundly contribute to the safety-by-design of nanomaterials in agricultural and environmental applications.

In order to obtain a new photoinitiator with high efficiency, low migration, and high solubility in acrylate monomers, a new compound named 9-allyl-9 H -carbazol-3-yldipenylphosphine oxide (ALPO) was designed and synthesized. Compared to 9-ethyl-9 H -carbazol-3-yldipenylphosphine oxide, the double bond conversion (DC) and solubility of ALPO in acrylic monomers were greatly improved, and the migration rate was greatly reduced after replacing the ethyl group in the molecule with an allyl group. Compared with (2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl) diphenylphosphine oxide (TPO), which was widely used commercially, ALPO had a higher DC and lower migration rate. This means that ALPO may be able to replace TPO in the light curing field. Graphical

The asymmetrical zinc phthalocyanine–multiwalled carbon nanotube hybrid material (aZnPc–MWCNT) were successfully prepared by in situ click chemistry of 4-(m-tolyloxygen)-5-nitrophthalonitrile and 4-azide-phthalonitrile modified MWCNT precursors in the Cu(I)/DBU catalyst system. In situ click chemistry reactions and covalent bonds between aZnPc and MWCNT were confirmed by FT-IR, UV–Vis and fluorescence spectra. The aZnPc–MWCNT red-shifted 12–690 nm compared with pristine ZnPc. The microstructure and morphology of aZnPc–MWCNT were investigated by TEM, SEM and AFM. The solubility of aZnPc–MWCNT could be significantly improved. After the ZnPc were uniformly distributed on the surface of MWCNTs, the aggregation of aZnPc–MWCNT was significantly reduced. The thermal degradation temperature of aZnPc–MWCNT was 72.8 °C higher than that of pristine ZnPc. TG results also indicated that the ZnPc content of aZnPc–MWCNT is 14.4%. It is expected that novel organic–inorganic donor–acceptor hybrid material possessing good solubility, optical and thermal stability properties would be obtained, and new materials for the preparation of organic electronic devices should be provided.
