Due to the excellent thermoelectric performance, bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) compounds are highly promising for the thermoelectric conversion in the room temperature range. However, the inferior thermoelectric performance of the n-type leg severely restricts the applications of Bi2Te3-based thermoelectric couples. Herein, n-type Bi2Te2.7Se0.3 (BTS)-based thermoelectric materials incorporated with nanosized Y2O3 (0.5–3 wt %) are prepared and their thermoelectric properties are systematically studied. The dramatically improved thermoelectric performance is ascribed to the realization of a multiscale feature of Y2O3 nanoparticle (NP)-induced interfacial decorations distributed along grain boundaries, which creates massive BTS/Y2O3 interfaces for the manipulation of carrier and phonon transport properties. The geometric phase analysis is employed to further confirm the condition of local strain in the BTS composite incorporated with Y2O3 NPs. Due to the presence of heterointerfaces and high density of dislocations in BTS matrices, the minimum lattice thermal conductivity (κl) of the nanocomposites (NCs) is dramatically suppressed from 0.76 to 0.37 W m–1 K–1. With the incorporation of 3 wt % Y2O3 NPs, the Vickers hardness of the BTS/Y2O3 NC is increased by about 32%. Overall, the BTS + 1.5 wt % Y2O3 NC maintains excellent thermoelectric properties (ZTave = 1.1) in the whole operative temperature range (300–500 K). The present strategy of implementing high-density heterogeneous interfaces by Y2O3 NP addition offers an applicable pathway for fabricating high-performance thermoelectric materials with both optimized thermoelectric properties and mechanical properties.

Different two-dimensional (2D) materials, when combined together to form heterostructures, can exhibit exciting properties that do not exist in individual components. Therefore, intensive research efforts have been devoted to their fabrication and characterization. Previously, vertical and in-plane 2D heterostructures have been formed by mechanical stacking and chemical vapor deposition. Here, we report a new material system that can form in-plane p–n junctions by thermal conversion of n-type SnSe2 to p-type SnSe. Through scanning tunneling microscopy and density functional theory studies, we find that these two distinctively different lattices can form atomically sharp interfaces and have a type II to nearly type III band alignment. We also demonstrate that this method can be used to create micron-sized in-plane p–n junctions at predefined locations. These findings pave the way for further exploration of the intriguing properties of the SnSe2–SnSe heterostructure.

A fluorescence method is described for the determination of hydroquinone based on the double carbon dot system as peroxide mimic enzymes and fluorescent probes. Deep eutectic solvent (DES)–based fluorescent carbon dots (N/Cl-CDs) and copper-doped carbon dots (N/Cu-CDs) were prepared by the hydrothermal method. Both carbon dots were characterized with transmission electron microscopy (TEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy. N/Cl-CDs displayed intrinsic peroxidase-like activity and were able to catalyze the oxidation of hydroquinone (H 2 Q) to p-benzoquinone (BQ) along with an intermediate. The intermediate (BQ) did quench the N/Cu-CD photoluminescence (PL) at 450 nm using an excitation wavelength of 347 nm. Based on the results, a fluorescent platform is proposed for the determination of hydroquinone with a promising determination limit of 0.04 μM (linear range, 1.0–75 μM). The recoveries of spiked water samples were in the range 89.5–105.1%, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 1.5–2.9%. This method was applied to determination of H 2 Q in environmental water samples.

In this work, the densities of CO2-loaded and unloaded alkanolamine (1) + N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC) (2) mixtures were determined at temperature of (288.15 to 323.15) K and 101 kPa. The alkanolamines were primary amines, 3-amino-1-propanol (3A1P) and 1-amino-2-propanol (1A2P), and tertiary amine, 3-dimethylamino-1-propanol (3DMA1P). There CO2-unloaded 3A1P/1A2P/3DMA1P + DMAC binary systems with the whole concentration and two CO2-loaded 3A1P/1A2P + DMAC systems with alkanolamine mass fraction of (0.2, 0.3 and 0.4) were investigated. Based on the density values of CO2-unloaded binary systems, the thermal expansion coefficient (αp), excess molar volume (VmE), and apparent molar volume (Vφ,i) were calculated and discussed in terms of intermolecular interactions and spatial structure. The VmE values were positive under the studied conditions and increased with the temperature, and the maximum followed the decreasing order of 1A2P + DMAC > 3DMA1P + DMAC > 3A1P + DMAC. Additionally, the VmE data were well fitted with the Redlich-Kister equation with a small standard deviation (σ ≤ 0.024). For the CO2-loaded systems, the density values were correlated with temperature and concentration using different empirical equations, and the average relative deviations (ARD%) were less than 0.299%.

Tire and road wear particles (TRWPs) have received much attention due to their substantial emission and potentially adverse environmental impacts. The specific contribution of observed contaminants, as critical additives of tires, from TRWPs has not yet been comprehensively studied in the environment. As one of TRWPs generated hotspots, driving school grounds in China were chosen to identify source contributions of heavy metals (HMs) and N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N′ -phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD) from TRWPs. Significant correlations ( P < 0.05) were found between TRWPs and 6PPD and zinc (Zn). The average measured content of 6PPD in road dust was 0.47 ± 0.18 μg/g (n = 50). The estimated level of 6PPD in road dust (5.68 ± 3.36 μg/g, n = 50) was far higher than the measured level of 6PPD in road dust on driving school grounds, implying that TRWPs contributed to 6PPD in road dust from driving school grounds. Compared to the levels of 6PPD in other road dusts, 6PPD in road dust from driving school grounds was higher, exhibiting more significant exposure risks to children with the higher estimated daily intakes. Furthermore, source apportionment through the lead isotopic analysis and positive matrix factorization model revealed that TRWPs were confirmed to contribute more Zn, cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) on driving school grounds, notably accounting for 76 %, 31 % and 29 %, respectively. These three HMs presented relatively moderate to strong pollution and corresponding potential ecological risks. Our findings can help identify specific contributions of tire-related additives released from TRWPs in the environment and their potential risks.

Aroylhydrazones with various substituent groups and their metal complexes have interesting biological activities. In this work, two new copper(II) complexes [Cu 2 (L a ) 2 ]2NO 3 ∙2MeOH ( 1 ) and [CuL b (CH 3 OH) 2 ]NO 3 ∙CH 3 OH ( 2 ), derived from the aroylhydrazones 4-hydroxy- N’ -(2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzylidene)-3-methoxybenzohydrazide (HL a ) and 4-hydroxy- N’ -(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene) benzohydrazide (HL b ), were synthesized and characterized by physico-chemical methods such as elemental analysis and infrared spectroscopy. Structures of the complexes were confirmed by single crystal X-ray determination. The hydrazone ligands in the complexes coordinate to Cu ions through phenolate oxygen, imino nitrogen and carbonyl oxygen atoms. The Cu ions in complex 1 are in square planar coordination, and that in complex 2 is in square pyramidal coordination. Both complexes show good antibacterial activities on the bacterial strains Bacillus subtilis , Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli , while weak activity on the fungal strain Candida albicans and no activity on Aspergillus niger .

A transient hot-wire method was used in this work to measure the thermal conductivities of methyl 2-methyl-3-nitrobenzoate (MMN) + acetonitrile, N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) + acetonitrile, and MMN + NBS + acetonitrile in the temperature range of T = (300–340) K. For binary systems, measurements were made for the mass fractions of MMN (ω1) range from 0 to 0.45 and the mass fractions of NBS (ω2) range from 0 to 0.30. For the ternary system, measurements were carried out with the ω1 + ω2 range from 0 to 0.45. The expanded uncertainties of the experimental data were estimated to be 2%, while the confidence level was 0.95 (k = 2). The experimental data were correlated as a function of the mass fraction and temperature using a linear thermal conductivity model. The maximum absolute relative deviation between the experimental values and the calculated results from the fitting model were 0.60, 0.16, and 1.30%.

A poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)- b -poly[2-( N,N -dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate] (PDMAEMA) block copolymer was successfully synthesized by a reversible addition–fragmentation chain-transfer method. The resulting copolymer was used to prepare poly(vinylidene fluoride) blend membranes via a phase-inversion technique. The polymorphism, structure, and properties of the blend membranes were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ζ potential analysis, and filtration. The results indicate that PMMA- b -PDMAEMA could migrate onto the surface of the membrane during the coagulation process, and more of the β-crystal phase appeared with the increase of the block copolymer in the membranes. The surface morphology and cross section of the membranes were also affected by the copolymer, as shown by SEM. The ζ-potential results show that the surface charges of the membrane could be changed from positive to negative at an isoelectric point as the pH increased. The blend membrane also exhibited good pH sensitivity, and its water flux showed a great dependence on pH. The filtration experiment also indicated that the blend membrane had good hydrophilicity and antifouling properties. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131 , 40685.

A novel A 2 BA 2 -type thermosensitive four-armed star block copolymer, poly( N -isopropyl acrylamide) 2 - b -poly(lactic acid)- b -poly( N -isopropyl acrylamide) 2 , was synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization and characterized by 1 H-NMR, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and size exclusion chromatography. The copolymers can self-assemble into nanoscale spherical core–shell micelles. Dynamic light scattering, surface tension, and ultraviolet–visible determination revealed that the micelles had hydrodynamic diameters ( D h ) below 200 nm, critical micelle concentrations from 50 to 55 mg/L, ζ potentials from −7 to −19 mV, and cloud points (CPs) of 34–36°C, depending on the [Monomer]/[Macroinitiator] ratios. The CPs and ζ potential absolute values were slightly decreased in simulated physiological media, whereas D h increased somewhat. The hydrophobic camptothecin (CPT) was entrapped in polymer micelles to investigate the thermo-induced drug release. The stability of the CPT-loaded micelles was evaluated by changes in the CPT contents loaded in the micelles and micellar sizes. The MTT cell viability was used to validate the biocompatibility of the developed copolymer micelle aggregates. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 130: 4137–4146, 2013

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.

Ionic liquids have shown good catalytic performance and been widely used in the biomass conversion process due to their unique properties, including environmental friendship, low toxicity, and simple preparation. In this work, a series of novel piperidinium-based ionic liquids were synthesized under mild conditions via a simple protonation reaction or nucleophilic substitution reaction. Among them, 4,4′-(propane-1,3-diyl)bis(1-(carboxymethyl)piperidin-1-ium) chloride ([PDCMPi]Cl) displayed the best catalytic performance. The highest yield (42.81 %) of 3A5AF from NAG was obtained after reacting in N-methyl-pyrrolidone (NMP) in the presence of piperidinium-based ionic liquids at 180 °C for 20 min under normal atmospheric conditions. Additionally, ionic liquid [PDCMPi]Cl showed good catalytic activity in six repeated catalytic runs. Meanwhile, a possible reaction pathway was also proposed on the basis of the results of NMR spectra.

A straightforward synthetic strategy to an anionic gemini surfactant having both N -acylamide and carboxylate groups in a molecule has been demonstrated. The surface properties of the anionic gemini surfactant, such as CMC (critical micelle concentration), C 20 (the concentration required to reduce the surface tension of the solvent by 20 mN / m), γ
CMC (the surface tension at the CMC), ∏
CMC (the surface pressure at the CMC), Γ
max (the maximum surface excess concentration at the air/aqueous solution interface), A
min (the minimum area per surfactant molecule at the air/water interface), and the CMC/C 20 ratio (a measure of the tendency to form micelles relative to adsorbtion at the air/water interface), have been studied. The influence of the different concentrations of NaCl on the surface properties of the gemini surfactant has been discussed. The results have shown that the CMC values decreased with an increase in the concentration of NaCl indicating that the Na + preferentially adsorbs onto the surface of the charged aggregate and facilitates the aggregate growth by suppressing the main impediment of electrostatic repulsion among head groups. Additionally, the values of Γ
max are always higher in salt solutions as compared to those in pure water due to their salting out effect. The larger pC 20 value indicates that the surfactant adsorbs more efficiently at the air/water interface and reduces surface tension more efficiently. In addition, the geminis in water show little or no break in their specific conductance versus surfactant molar concentration plots. This is attributable to protonation of the carboxylate group and strong Na + release during micellization.
