The separation of organic solvents can be improved in a sustainable way by implementing membranes produced via streamlined processing. However, conventional membranes are not typically used in organic solvents, and thus require further chemical cross-linking before use. This process is complicated, and cross-linking agents are harmful to the environment. This study investigated the synthesis of a sulfonated poly(aryl ether ketone) (SPAEK) copolymer with a controlled degree of sulfonation via molecular design as a novel nanofiltration membrane in organic solvent. The introduction of a suitable number of sulfonic acid groups improved the hydrophilicity and surface charge of the membrane compared to conventional poly(aryl ether ketone) (PAEK), leading to excellent performance in separating alcoholic solvents and negatively charged dyes. The membrane still exhibited good separation performance, and no obvious damage to its microstructure was found by FESEM after the membrane was soaked in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) for 7 days. Consequently, the ethanol permeance and dye rejection of the membrane was maintained. PEK-SPEDEK membrane has potential applications in OSN under complex and harsh conditions such as printing, dyeing and pharmaceuticals.

Sulfated cyclofructan 6 (S-CF6) and sulfated cyclodextrins (S-α-, β-, γ-CDs) are highly selective chiral selectors for the enantioseparation of basic solutes. In this study, S-CF6 was introduced for the enantiomeric separation of four basic pharmaceuticals (including tamsulosin, tiropramide, bupivacaine, and norephedrine) by capillary electrophoresis (CE), and the enantiomeric separation performance was compared with S-α-, β-, γ-CDs. The effects of the chiral selector type, chiral selector concentration, operating voltage, and column temperature were examined and optimized. Excellent resolutions were obtained for all solutes on these chiral selectors. Chirality 25:735–742, 2013 . © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A series of vanadium ion blocking sulfonated polyimide (SPI) membranes with various non-sulfonated diamines were prepared for vanadium redox battery (VRB) applications. FT-IR spectrum verifies the successful synthesis of SPIs , FSEM images illustrate that the membrane surface facing the negative electrode is more intact than that facing the positive electrode. The properties of SPI membranes such as water uptake, ion exchange capacity, thermal stability, proton conductivity and vanadium ion permeability can be adjusted by the species and the structure of non-sulfonated diamine. All SPI membranes show over one or two order of magnitude lower permeability of vanadium ion (0.48 - 2.36 × 10 −7 cm 2 min −1 ) than currently used Nafion 117 membrane (17.10 × 10 −7 cm 2 min −1 ). Vanadium redox static batteries with SPI membranes exhibit lower self-discharge rate, higher coulombic efficiency (97% - 99%) compared with Nafion 117 (94%) at 30 mA cm −2 . Meanwhile, as-prepared SPI membranes are durable in 0.1 mol L −1 VO 2 + + 3.0 mol L −1 H 2 SO 4 solutions at 40 °C. All results show that SPI membranes are promising proton conductive membranes for VRB applications, among which the SPI (BAPP) has the best VRB performance.

Aldehyde terminated sulfonated poly (arylene ether sulfone) (SPAES-CHO) is prepared by a series of nucleophilic substitution reaction based on SPAES in this paper. Novel SPAES-graft-SPVA (SPAES-g-SPVA) membranes are fabricated by acetal reaction between SPAES-CHO and different amounts of sulfonated poly (vinyl alcohol) (SPVA). The 1H-NMR and FTIR indicate the successful preparation of SPAES-CHO and SPAES-g-SPVA membranes. With the introduction of SPVA, the SPAES-g-SPVA membranes have much lower methanol permeability than pure SPAES membrane and Nafion117 membrane. The methanol permeability coefficients of the SPAES-g-SPVA membranes decrease from 3.41 × 10−7 cm2 s−1 to 1.67 × 10−7 cm2 s−1 with the increase of SPVA content. And the proton conductivity of all the membranes is higher than 15 mS cm−1 at 25°C. Moreover, SPAES-g-SPVA membranes exhibit high proton selectivity. Especially, SPAES-g-SPVA-30% membrane has the highest proton selectivity, which is nearly five times higher than Nafion117.

In this study, sulfonated organosilane graphene oxide (SSiGO) was synthesized by grafting 3-mercaptopropyl trimethoxysilane (MTPS) with graphene oxide (GO) and follow-up oxidation with hydrogen peroxide. The SSiGO was introduced into sulfonated poly (phthalazinone ether ketone) (SPPEK) to obtain composite membranes (SSiGO/SPPEK), and the physicochemical and electrochemical properties were extensively investigated. The results show that this SSiGO/SPPEK composite membranes possess excellent thermal and dimensional stability and super high proton conductivity. The proton conductivity of 10% SSiGO composite membranes was improved greatly from 0.094 to 0.22 S/cm from 30 to 80 °C, in contrast with the 0.089–0.17 S/cm from 30 to 80 °C of Nafion 212, which indicates that the SSiGO/SPPEK composite membranes have tremendous promise for proton exchange membranes fuel cells.

Branched sulfonated polyimide (bSPI) membranes based on three different non-sulfonated diamine monomers were fabricated for vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) usage. Both FT-IR and 1 H NMR spectra confirm that bSPIs were successfully synthesized. TGA results show that bSPI membranes have good thermal stability. FESEM pictures indicate that the surface of membrane in contact with catholyte keeps better integrity than that in contact with anolyte after 500-time cycling charge-discharge test. The water uptake, ion exchange capacity, mechanical strength of bSPI membranes are larger than or close to those of Nafion 117 membrane, and bSPI membranes exhibit remarkably lower vanadium ion permeability compared with Nafion 117 membrane. In addition, bSPI membranes have outstanding chemical stability in contrast with linear SPI membrane in ex-situ degradation test. Further, the bSPI (BAPP) membrane displays the best chemical stability and highest proton selectivity (1.23 × 10 5 S min cm −3 ) among all bSPI membranes, thus it is seen as an optimum one for further single VRFB test. During 500-time cyclic charge-discharge test, the coulomb efficiency ( CE : 97.1 ∼ 99.7%) of VRFB containing bSPI (BAPP) membrane is higher than that containing Nafion 117 ( CE : 95.2 ∼ 98.6%) at 30 ∼ 120 mA cm −2 . The VRFB using bSPI (BAPP) membrane presents higher or comparable energy efficiency ( EE ) and capacity retention compared with that using Nafion 117 membrane at low or high current density. Based on the excellent physico-chemical properties and single cell performance together with much lower cost compared with widely used Nafion 117 membrane, the as-prepared bSPI (BAPP) membrane has great potential to be applied in VRFB.

Composite cation exchange membranes (CEMs) based on sulfonated polyether sulfone (SPES) with low sulfonation degree (DS) have been prepared in our previous studies. The results provided an approach for the preparation of CEM with low cost, environment-friendly technology, and ideal properties. On the basis of the previous research, the first purpose of this study was aimed to explore more suitable hydrophilic additives to further improve CEM properties. Hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) with different molecular weight (M w ) were used as hydrophilic additives, while SPES was still used as the matrix material. The results showed that PEG was not a suitable additive for CEMs due to the low M W , while stability was clearly improved with increased PVP M W . Hence, for researchers, there is no need to waste time on PEG as a hydrophilic agent of CEM prepared with this method in the future. The second purpose of this study, which was the further optimization of the CEM performance, was achieved in the research of suitable hydrophilic additives. The results of stability and electrodialysis showed that SPES blended with PVP K90 was the best prepared CEM. The third purpose was the investigation of mechanism of synergistic effects between sulfonated groups and hydrophilicity on membrane properties. In this part, an innovative concept of effective DS was put forward. This innovative concept will directly impact on ion transport mechanism, and have a very important influence on the preparation idea of CEM. In conclusion, this study is of great significance for selection of CEM materials, improvement of membrane stability and further study of ion transport mechanism.

Thiophenes and sulfides are the dominant sulfur-containing compounds in petroleum and have been widely of concern in the fields of petroleum refining and geochemistry. In this study, a novel approach was developed for selective separation and characterization of petroleum-derived thiophenic and sulfide compounds. Thiophenic compounds were selectively converted to sulfonates in the presence of vitriolic acid and can be characterized by negative ion electrospray mass spectrometry. Thiophenic sulfonates were further separated from the oil by silica chromatography and enabled the molecular characterization of sulfides in the residual oil. Various model sulfur compounds and a vacuum gas oil were used to validate the method; thiophenic and sulfide biomarker compounds in a well-documented crude oil were selectively characterized. The results indicate that the approach is feasible for molecular characterization of thiophenic and sulfide compounds, which is complementary to recently developed methods for separation and/or ionization of sulfur compounds in petroleum.

The extraction kinetics of lanthanum (III) from a chloride medium by bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate(HDEHP) and dimethylheptyl methyl phosphate(P350) in the presence of sulfonated kerosene are investigated using a Lewis cell. The effects of the stirring rate, temperature, and specific interfacial area on the extraction rate are investigated. The results show that the extraction process is controlled by diffusion and chemical reactions in the interfacial area rather than in the bulk phase. The apparent activation energy and the changes in the enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs free energy of the extraction reaction are calculated using the Arrhenius equation and transition state theory. The rate equation derived from the experimental results is similar to that of the interface reaction model. A mass transfer model with a rate-control step is proposed. This study provides guidance and data support for an HDEHP-P350 system in industrial production applications.

A novel sulfonated multi-wall carbon nanotubes (s-MWCNTs) filler is synthesized by ring-opening reaction. And then, a series of branched sulfonated polyimide (bSPI)/s-MWCNTs composite membranes are also prepared for application in vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs). The optimized bSPI/s-MWCNTs-2% composite membrane has lower vanadium ion permeability (2.01 × 10 −7 cm 2 min −1 ) and higher proton selectivity (1.06 × 10 5 S min cm −3 ) compared to those of commercial Nafion 212 membrane. Moreover, the VRFB with bSPI/s-MWCNTs-2% composite membrane exhibits higher coulombic efficiencies ( CE s: 96.0–98.2%) and energy efficiencies ( EE s: 79.7–69.5%) than that with Nafion 212 membrane ( CE s: 86.5–92.5% and EE s: 78.5–67.6%) at 80–160 mA cm −2 . The VRFB with bSPI/s-MWCNTs-2% composite membrane has stable battery performance over 400 cycles at 100 mA cm −2 , whose EE value is in the top level among previously reported SPI-based composite membranes. The results show that the bSPI/s-MWCNTs-2% composite membrane has a great prospect in VRFB application.

The development and application of high-efficiency coal-water slurry (CWS) dispersants can foster the clean utilization of natural coal. CWS with excellent flowability and stability requires good adsorption capacity of dispersant on pulverized coal surface, which is influenced substantially by the architecture and hydrophilicity of dispersants molecule. In this study, a series of neutralized sulfonated poly(styrene- alt -maleic anhydride) (NSPSM) with different molecular weight (M n ) and sulfonation degree (SD) were synthesized by self-stabilized precipitation polymerization (2SP), gas-solid heterogeneous sulfonation reaction (GSR) and neutralization reaction with NaOH. The performance of NSPSM for CWS, and their dispersion and stabilization mechanisms were investigated in detail. Under optimized conditions, maximum slurry concentration (MSC) and water separation ratio (WSR) of slurry with NSPSM could reach 66.5% and 2.0%, respectively, which are superior to commercial naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde condensate (NSF) dispersant. The outstanding dispersibility of NSPSM was ascribed to its improved adsorption capacity due to increased charge density along polymer chain, which can prevent agglomeration among coal particles through electrostatic repulsion.

In this work, we aimed to prepare graphene with high concentration (CG) or quality (indicated by ID/IG) by sonication-assisted exfoliation in aqueous sulfonated asphalt (SAS) solution. The highest CG can reach 0.181 mg ml−1, while the smallest ID/IG is only 0.331 in the investigated range. Meanwhile, we observed that CG and ID/IG changed in the opposite trend with the increase of SAS concentration, and reached their extreme values simultaneously. This was attributed to SAS's agglomeration-induced redistribution of total energy absorbed by graphite between exfoliation and crushing. The graphene size was mainly within 100–400 nm and most of layer number was <5. The stabilization of graphene dispersion comes from the electrostatic repulsion between negatively charged SAS groups adsorbed on the graphene sheets. As the protective coating of aluminium, the graphene with relative small (for H2SO4 solution) or large (for NaCl solution) size, relative high defect content and annealing at proper temperature can improve the anticorrosion performance of graphene.
