The catalytic transformation of furfuryl alcohol and hexose into value-added chemicals have been investigated with a series of polymer-based catalysts including poly(styrenesulfonic acid) (PSS), graphite oxide-doped poly(styrenesulfonic acid) (PSS-GO), and graphite-doped poly(styrenesulfonic acid) (PSS-C). It is found that the selective conversion of furfuryl alcohol to methyl levulinate (MLE) was successfully performed with PSS as the catalyst, in which a 96.4% yield is attained in methanol solvent. Moreover, the efficient dehydration of d -fructose to produce 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) has also been achieved using PSS-GO as the catalyst, where a 76.5% yield of HMF was obtained in N -methylpyrrodinone solvent. The effects of reaction temperature, time and solvent were investigated. Furthermore, the used catalysts have been respectively characterized by XRD, TG, FTIR, SEM and TEM techniques to reveal the physical properties and structures of these polymeric catalytic materials.

Structural conversion using core-shell silver (Ag)-platinum (Pt) nanoparticles as starting materials is a promising way to produce nanocomposites consisting of silver sulfide (Ag 2 S) and hollow Pt nanostructures (Ag 2 S-hPtNCs). However, the mechanism behind the structural conversion process is yet to be understood. In this study, we use transmission electron microscope (TEM) as a typical tool to characterize the products formed in different structural conversion processes, and interpret the experimental observations by proposing mechanisms behind the reactions between core-shell Ag-Pt nanoparticles and sulfur precursors from different sources. We then design additional experiments to rationalize the formation mechanism we proposed. The mechanistic understanding of the structural conversion from bimetallic core-shell nanostructures to heterogeneous nanocomposites may extend the fabrication of heterogeneous nanocomposites for a given technological application.

Reduced graphene oxide functionalized with magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles and –PhSO 3 H groups (Fe 3 O 4 -RGO-SO 3 H) was reported for environmentally benign hydrolysis of cellulosic materials, which is an important process in integrated utilization of biomass resource. Except for –PhSO 3 H groups, –COOH and –OH groups derived from graphene oxide (GO) were also expected in the structure of Fe 3 O 4 -RGO-SO 3 H. Fe 3 O 4 -RGO-SO 3 H exhibited outstanding catalytic performance for the hydrolysis of cellulosic materials, due to its crumpling feature with clear layers and the coexistence of –COOH and –OH groups. The unique structure of Fe 3 O 4 -RGO-SO 3 H favors the accessibility of cellulose to the active sites of the material and facilitates the diffusion of the product molecules. –COOH groups on the surface of the material provide a large concentration of acidic functionality for hydrolyzing cellulose, while –OH groups readily adsorb cellulose through forming strong hydrogen bonds between –OH groups and the oxygen atoms in β-1,4 glycosidic bonds. Furthermore, Fe 3 O 4 -RGO-SO 3 H can also be easily separated from the reaction residue with an extra magnetic force and further used at least five times.

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.

We reported herein the synthesis of block copolymers and their application in the in-situ emulsion polymerization of waterborne poly (urethane-acrylate) (WPUA) nanoemulsions based on phase inversion process. The polymerizable surfmers containing terminal unsaturated double bonds (MSA-r) were successfully synthesized via catalytic chain transfer polymerization (CCTP). Random copolymer (MSA-t) prepared through radical polymerization was utilized as control. The structure, surface tension and aggregation behavior of surfmers were characterized. The phase inversion, formation and stability of WPUA nanoemulsions were systematically investigated. Effects of MSA-r surfmer content and BMA/MMA ratio on the water resistance and thermal stability of the corresponding films were also discussed. It was found that the phase inversion mechanism of PUA prepolymer in the presence of MSA-r surfmers is different from conventional polyurethane prepolymer. The addition of MSA-r and MSA-t surfmers alters the rheological behaviors of PUA prepolymer via PUA-surfmer interactions, as well as the phase inversion process. Compared with WPUA/MSA-t emulsion, WPUA/MSA-r nanoemulsion displayed improved stability at higher solid content. The minimum particle size of WPUA/MSA-r nanoemulsion was 88.7 nm and kept almost constant after 12-month storage, while the particle size of WPUA/MSA-t emulsion was 131.3 nm and increased to 178.9 nm. Moreover, the WPUA/MSA-r film possessed improved water resistance and thermal stability.

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.
