Covalently immobilized silica-supported acetylacetonate dichloride palladium(II) precatalyst is prepared by the reaction of silica particles grafted acetylacetonate ligand further exchange with [Et 4 N] 2 PdCl 4 . The silica-supported catalyst is used in slurry polymerizations of norbornene (NB) to afford a highly productive NB addition polymerization system in combination with B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 cocatalyst. It exhibits productivity of 84 kg of PNB (mol Pd) −1 h −1 at the initial activity, and the catalyst deactivation kinetics in the early stage of polymerization are fitted well by the first-order deactivation kinetics. The obtained vinyl-type polynorbornene is confirmed to be nanosilica hybrid PNB nanocomposite by SEM, TEM with an energy dispersive spectrometer, TGA, and XRD.

In this work, the stepwise synthesis of interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) strategy was developed in an attempt to fabricate novel hydrogels consisting of sugarcane bagasse cellulose (SBC), carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm) as a dual-responsive drug carrier. The pretreated and dissolved SBC was pre-crosslinked using epichlorohydrin in the presence of CMC, followed by in-situ free-radical polymerization of NIPAm in the presence of N,N′-Methylene-bis(acrylamide) as a crosslinking agent. The carboxyl groups in CMC and PNIPAm chains rendered the resulting hydrogel pH and thermal responsive. The results from scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy , thermogravimetric analysis and mechanical property testing demonstrated the successful formation of the IPN with proper structure and mechanical strength . The swelling experiments at different temperatures and pH showed the dual–sensibility of the hydrogels. Moreover, bovine serum albumin (BSA) was used as a model drug and loaded in the hydrogel; and the drug release behavior was revealed in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) and simulated gastric fluid (SGF). The results indicated that the dual-responsive IPN hydrogel is of great potential for the controlled release of drug.

A novel hyperbranched polymeric ionic liquid (HBP-AMIM + PF6 − ) was explored via a thiol-ene click reaction using thiol-ended hyperbranched polyesters (THBP) and 1-allyl-3-imethylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (AMIMPF6). The effects of HBP-AMIM + PF6 − on the curing behavior, mechanical properties and thermal stability of benzoxazine/epoxy thermosets were investigated. The gelation time and differential scanning calorimetry of non-isothermal analysis indicated that the addition of HBP-AMIM + PF6 − significantly decreased the curing temperature of benzoxazine/epoxy thermosets. Simultaneously, the addition of HBP-AMIM + PF6 − also improved the strength, toghness and thermal properties of benzoxazine-epoxy thermosets. The addition of 3 wt% HBP-AMIM + PF6 − -2 could significantly improve the mechanical and thermal performance of thermosets compared with that of cured neat benzoxazine/epoxy resin. The tensile strength, tensile toughness, flexural strength and flexural modulus, impact strength of the thermosets were improved by about 76.6%, 279.3%, 57.8%, 22.3% and 80.4%, respectively, compared with those of cured neat resin. The toughening mechanisms was attributed to the “in situ” reinforcing and toughening mechanism.

Novel sulfonated poly (fluorenyl ether ketone) with pendant quaternary ammonium groups (SPFEKA) was successfully synthesized by one-pot copolymerization of bis(4-fluoro-3-sulfophenyl)sulfone disodium salt, 4,4′-difluorobenzophenone, bisphenol fluorene and 2,2′-dimethylaminemethylene-9,9′-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) fluorene (DABPF). The chemical structures were confirmed by FT-IR, and 1 H NMR. The thermal properties were fully investigated by TGA . The synthesized copolymers SPFEKAs are soluble in aprotic solvents, and can be cast into membranes on a glass plate from their N,N′-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) solution. A new kind of amphoteric ion exchange membrane (AIEM) was obtained by immersed SPFEKA into 1 M sulfuric acid. The proton conductivities of these membranes are comparable to the most reported sulfonated polymers under the same conditions. The permeability of vanadium ions in vanadium redox flow battery (VRB) was effectively suppressed by introducing quaternary ammonium groups for Donnan exclusion effect . AIEM-20% possess a only 4.4% vanadium ion permeability of Nafion 115. Cell performance tests showed that the VRB assembled with AIEM-20% shows the highest coulombic efficiency (CE) at the current density of 50 mA/cm 2 , because of its lowest VO 2+ permeability. In conclusion, these ionomers could be promising candidates for ion-exchange membranes for VRB applications.

Supported ionic liquid membranes (SILMs), owing to their capacities in harnessing physicochemical properties of ionic liquid for exceptional CO 2 solubility, have emerged as a promising platform for CO 2 extraction. Despite great achievements, existing SILMs suffer from poor structural and performance stability under high-pressure or long-term operations, significantly limiting their applications. Herein, a one-step and in situ interfacial polymerization strategy is proposed to elaborate a thin, mechanically-robust, and highly-permeable polyamide armor on the SILMs to effectively protect ionic liquid within porous supports, allowing for intensifying the overall stability of SILMs without compromising CO 2 separation performance. The armored SILMs have a profound increase of breakthrough pressure by 105% compared to conventional counterparts without armor, and display high and stable operating pressure exceeding that of most SILMs previously reported. It is further demonstrated that the armored SILMs exhibit ultrahigh ideal CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of about 200 and excellent CO 2 permeation of 78 barrers upon over 150 h operation, as opposed to the full failure of CO 2 separation performance within 36 h using conventional SILMs. The design concept of armor provides a flexible and additional dimension in developing high-performance and durable SILMs, pushing the practical application of ionic liquids in separation processes.

We explore two strategies to improve the performance of hybrid solar cells fabricated using poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and colloidal PbSe nanocrystals, which have reached a 1 sun power conversion efficiency of 2.9%. Using an atomic passivation strategy towards inorganic ligand-capped nanocrystals, the electron mobilities of PbSe quantum dot films are improved from 1.95 × 10−6 cm2 V−1 s−1 to 1.15 × 10−5 cm2 V−1 s−1. Employing ultrasmall PbSe nanocrystals allows us to adjust their bandgaps towards the type II heterojunction with P3HT, thus achieving efficient charge separation and transfer between the polymer/inorganic constituents. The device performance dropped to half after 10 days' storage, and the P3HT/PbSe interface was found to play a primary role in this efficiency degradation.

Solvothermal reaction of 4,4’,4’-nitrilotribenzoic acid (H 3 TCA) with Ca(NO 3 ) 2 ·4H 2 O and Cd(NO 3 ) 2 ·4H 2 O successfully afforded a heterometallic compound, that is, [Cd 2 Ca(TCA) 2 (DMA) 2 (H 2 O) 3 ] n ·2n(DMA) ( 1 , DMA = N,N’-dimethylacetamide). The structure of 1 was further characterized through EA, diffraction of single crystal X-ray, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) together with powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). Moreover, complex 1 ’s luminescent performance in solid state was also discussed at environmental temperature. The applications on the ischemic cerebral infarction therapy were evaluated, and the specific mechanism was investigated at the same time. Firstly, the hypersensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) content in human brain microvascular endothelial cell (HBMEC) was measured with real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Then, interleukin-18 and interleukin-1 β content released through the HBMEC was detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

In this article, semi-interpenetrating polymer network (Semi-IPNs) based on nitrile rubber (NBR) and poly(methyl methacrylate- co -butyl acrylate) (P(MMA-BA)) were synthesized. The structure and damping properties of the prepared Semi-IPNs blends were characterized and by fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA/DTG), and tensile mechanical properties. The results showed that interpenetrating network based on P(MMA-BA) and NBR was successfully obtained, which showed the improved thermal stability compared to NBR/P(MMA-BA)-based two-roll mill blends. Furthermore, Semi-IPNs showed significantly better the dynamic mechanical properties than that of the two-roll mill system. With the increasing feed ratio of BA and MMA during the preparation of Semi-IPNs, the loss peak position for P(MMA-BA) in NBR/PMMA IPNs shifted to a lower temperature from 20°C to −17°C, and when NBR in Semi-IPNs was accounted for 40 wt %, the dynamic mechanical thermal analysis showed that much more advanced damping material with wider temperature range (−30°C < T < 80°C) as tan δ > 0.45 can be achieved. Therefore, it was expected as a promising way to obtain the excellent damping materials with good oil-resisted properties according the Semi-IPNs system. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

Charged cyclic polymers, e.g. cyclic DNAs and polypeptides , play enabling roles in organisms, but their synthesis was challenging due to the well-known “polyelectrolyte effect”. To tackle the challenge, we developed a templated method to synthesize a library of imidazolium and pyridinium based cyclic poly(ionic liquid)s. Cyclic templates, cyclic polyimidazole and poly(2-pyridine), were synthesized first through ring-closure method by light-induced Diels−Alder click reaction. Through quaternization of cyclic templates followed by anion metathesis, the cyclic poly(ionic liquid)s were synthesized, which paired with varied counter anions.

The development of organic lithium batteries (OLBs) offers a promising opportunity for the advancement of green and sustainable energy storage systems. However, organic cathode materials face challenges in terms of conductivity, electrochemical activity, and dissolution. Here, we address these limitations by introducing a sulfur-linked carbonyl compound called poly(dichlorobenzoquinone sulfide) (PDBS), which is polymerized in situ on reduced graphene oxide by a mixed solvent thermal method. The resulting carbonyl compound electrode materials exhibit favorable properties as organic cathode materials for OLBs. After 4000 cycles at a current density of 1000 mA g −1 , the carbonyl compound electrodes exhibit a discharge capacity of 102 mAh g −1 . This remarkable performance indicates excellent stability and long cycle life, which are crucial for practical applications. These results suggest that PDBS, a designable sulfur-linked carbonyl compound, holds great promise as an effective organic cathode material for OLBs. In addition, this work provides valuable insights into improving the electrochemical performance of organic cathode materials.

The adsorption-catalysis synergy for accelerated conversion of polysulfides is critical toward the electrochemical stability of lithium-sulfur battery (LSB). Herein, a non-metallic polymer network with anion receptor units, trifluoromethanesulfonyl (CF 3 SO 2 -) substituted aza-ether, was in-situ integrated on PE separator, working as an efficient host for anchoring lithium thiophosphates (LPS) as redox mediators and polysulfides through Lewis acid-base interaction. The anchored LPS on the modified PE separator displayed a robust chemical adsorption ability towards polysulfides through the formation of S S bond. Meanwhile, LPS decreased the energy barrier of Li 2 S nucleation and promoted redox reaction kinetics. The battery with LPS decorated separator revealed a long cycling lifespan with a per cycle decay of 0.056 % after 600 cycles, and a competitive initial capacity of 889.1 mAh/g when the of sulfur cathode increased to 3 mg cm −2 . This work developed a new design strategy to promote the utilization of lithium phosphorus sulfide compounds in LSB.

The developing sulfide solid electrolyte is a promising way to overcome shuttle effect of polysulfide in the traditional liquid Li-S battery. However, an air stable sulfide solid electrolyte and competitive solid–solid interface structure must be constructed firstly. Herein, we have designed an organic–inorganic multi-scale composite electrolytes to overcome the interfacial issues of solid state Li-S batteries (SSLSBs). The organic–inorganic composite electrolyte consists of a gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) and an oxygen doped inorganic sulfide solid electrolyte. The O doped sulfide solid electrolyte improves its chemical stability and suppresses the lithium dendrites. A thin GPE film protects the crystal structural stability during cycles and greatly enhances the performance of O doped sulfide solid electrolyte due to the GPE not only constructs soft interface contact between S cathode and solid electrolyte, but also builds lithium ion transport paths by ionic liquid between them. Those SSLSBs display a very good cycling performance with the specific capacity of 1023 mAh/g after 50 cycles at 60 °C and 541 mAh/g after 150 cycles at 30 °C under same rate of 0.1 C. This study demonstrates that the development of advanced solid-state Li-S battery needs to fully integrate a number of technical advantages.
