A novel mesoporous nanosphere functionalized with 3-(aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) and 2-(5-bromothiophen)imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline (5-Br-Tip) was synthesized (denoted as Tip-MSS). With the coordinating function of the 5-Br-Tip to lanthanide (Ln) ions, for the first time, LnL3(5-Br-Tip) complexes were linked to the mesoporous nanospheres. The derived materials, named Ln-Tip-MSS (Ln = Eu, Tb, Sm, Nd, Yb), were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, TEM, XRD (wide-angle and small-angle), N2 adsorption/desorption analysis, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Upon excitation in the ligand absorption, the Ln-Tip-MSS nanomaterials show characteristic visible (Eu, Tb, Sm) and NIR (Sm, Nd, Yb) luminescence (multicolor emission covered from 450 nm to 1400 nm spectral region). Of importance is that, with low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility given by the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, the Eu-Tip-MSS was successfully applied to cell imaging in vitro based on the Eu3+ luminescence (under 405 nm excitation).

The rapid development of high-performance materials has garnered considerable attention in addressing electromagnetic pollution . The construction of core-shell heterostructures is an effective approach for regulating the electromagnetic parameters of absorbers. However, these heterostructures usually lack a direct channel for charge transport between the core phase and the adhesive shell phase. Herein, Fe 2 AlB 2 @FeAl-layered double hydroxides with core-shell heterostructures were prepared using a top-down approach. The tightly connected FeAl-LDHs nanosheets to the Fe 2 AlB 2 parent phase improved electronic transport. Compared with raw Fe 2 AlB 2 , the spherical absorber with an embroidered structure demonstrated stronger reflection loss (-15.6 dB for Fe 2 AlB 2 , −58.6 dB for Fe 2 AlB 2 @FeAl-LDHs) and a broader effective absorption bandwidth (2.2 GHz for Fe 2 AlB 2 , 3.6 GHz for Fe 2 AlB 2 @FeAl-LDHs) due to the enhanced dielectric and magnetic losses. This study presents a practical method for designing new controllable core-shell heterostructures for electromagnetic wave-absorbing materials.

Magnesium hydroxide (MgH 2 ) has excellent reversibility and high capacity, and is one of the most promising materials for hydrogen storage in practical applications. However, it suffers from high dehydrogenation temperature and slow sorption kinetics. Rare earth hydrides and transition metals can both significantly improve the de/hydrogenation kinetics of MgH 2 . In this work, MgH 2 –Mg 2 NiH 4 –CeH 2.73 is in-situ synthesized by introducing Ni@CeO 2 into MgH 2 . The unique coating structure of Ni@CeO 2 facilitates homogeneous distribution of synergetic CeH 2.73 and Mg 2 NiH 4 catalytic sites in subsequent ball milling process. The as-fabricated composite MgH 2 -10 wt% Ni@CeO 2 powders possess superior hydrogenation/dehydrogenation characteristics, absorbing 4.1 wt% hydrogen within 60 min at 100 °C and releasing 5.44 wt% H 2 within 10 min at 350 °C. The apparent activation energy of MgH 2 -10 wt% Ni@CeO 2 is determined to be 84.8 kJ/mol and it has favorable hydrogen cycling stability with almost no decay in capacity after 10 cycles.

Nowadays, although highly conductive polymer composites filled with two-dimensional graphene-based nano-fillers have been explored extensively, constructing nanocomposites with high performance, industrial feasibility, and more efficient conductive networks at lower nano-filler contents remains a challenge. To achieve the above objectives, industrial wastes microsilica powder (N98) with amorphous spherical structure and large particle size is employed in this work. And the hybrids (TGN) are obtained between N98 and graphene (GE) by the effective bridging and interface coupling of tannic acid, which can achieve the purpose of obtaining conductive composites with low-filler contents by traditional polymer processing technologies. The volume exclusion effect of N98 and its own assisted dispersion effect can prevent and attenuate graphene agglomeration, enabling the formation of a dense, complete and uniform conductive network in natural rubber (NR) matrix based on a small amount of graphene addition (parts per thousand). Thus, it give the nanocomposite highly functional, especially electric property. The results show that when the ratio of GE to N98 hybridization is 1:20, N98 and graphene are more uniformly hybridized together, and the volume exclusion effect is best matched with the rubber composites, and the comprehensive performance is optimal. Moreover, the electrical conductivity of NR/TG 1 N 20 nanocomposite can reach the balanced value of 10 −3 S·cm −1 with the GE loading of 0.48 phr, which shows the effectiveness of the prepared hybrids.

A novel method for identification of four isomers of dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) was reported by their different perturbation effects on a Briggs-Rauscher (BR) oscillating system. In the system, macrocyclic nickel (II) complex NiL(ClO 4 ) 2 is used as the catalyst, where the ligand L in the complex is 5,7,7,12,14,14‑hexemethyl‑1,4,8,11‑tetraazacyclotetradeca‑4,11‑diene. By putting equal amount of the same concentrations of four isomers (1,4‑dihydroxynaphthalene (1,4-DHN), 1,5‑dihydroxynaphthalene (1,5-DHN), 2,3‑dihydroxynaphthalene (2,3-DHN) and 2,7‑dihydroxynaphthalene (2,7-DHN)) into BR system, the system could or couldn't be perturbed, being reflected in quite different oscillating behaviors after addition of isomers. These four isomers were identified in their concentration range of 5.0 × 10 −6 to 2.5 × 10 −4 mol/L. An explanation of such perturbation mechanism is that, 1,4-DHN couldn't be oxidized by BR matrix, but 1,5-DHN, 2,3-DHN and 2,7-DHN could be oxidized by HOO to yield 5‑Hydrox‑1,4‑naphthoquinone, phthalic acid and 6,7‑dihydroxyperylene‑1,12‑quinone (DHPQ), respectively.

To confer cellulose fibers antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, chitosan (CS)/lignosulfonates (LS) multilayers were constructed on fibers surfaces through layer-by-layer deposition technique. The formation of CS/LS multilayers on cellulose fibers surfaces was verified by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and zeta potential measurement. The surface morphologies of CS/LS multilayers on fibers surfaces were observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results showed that characteristic element (i.e. N and S element) content increased with increasing bilayers number, the surface LS content increased linearly as a function of bilayers. Zeta potential of modified fibers was inversed after deposition of each layer. AFM phase images indicated that the cellulose microfibrils on fibers surfaces were gradually covered by granular LS aggregate. The antimicrobial testing results demonstrated that CS/LS multilayers modified fibers with CS in the outermost layer exhibited higher antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli . The antioxidant testing results showed that antioxidant activity of CS/LS multilayers modified fibers was better than that of original fibers under the same oxidation conditions.

The spherical silica particles in narrow size distribution with different diameters of 90 nm, 200 nm, 320 nm and 400 nm were prepared by the modified Stöber method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). The phase composition of particles was characterized by X-ray diffraction. The results indicated that each of the silica particle samples was in amorphous state. The shear thickening fluids (STFs) comprising 53 vol.% of silica particles and 47 vol.% of polyethylene glycol with molecular weight of 200 g mol −1 (PEG200) were prepared and evaluated. The influence of size and size distribution on the critical shear rate and the intensity of shear thickening were analyzed. The STFs prepared by silica nanoparticles with a diameter of 90 nm showed the giant rheological effect with the critical shear rate of 2.51 s −1 , the largest viscosity of 45,500 Pa∙s and the yield stress of 181 kPa. The experiments and the analysis results demonstrated that the suspensions prepared by nanoparticles have high intensity of shear thickening.

Electrochemical energy storage (EES) devices that combine high-performance are essential to resolve the extreme shortage of non-renewable energy sources and environmental issues. Nickel oxide (NiO) is considered to be a promising EES cathode material because of its ultra-high theoretical specific capacitance, whereas the practical applications are greatly limited with poor rate and cycle performance. Herein, we report the yolk-shelled NiO/Ni composites (YS NiO/Ni) that exhibit good charge storage capability in the aqueous electrolyte with high specific capacitance (2207.3 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 ), exceptional rate capability, and ultra-high cycling stability (95.8% retention after 10,000 cycles). The superior property can be ascribed to the special yolk-shelled structure that exposes more redox reaction active sites, and the associate Ni nanoparticles with flower-like NiO which can improve electron transfer as current collectors.

Novel triarylamine-based coordination-saturated aryl Pd(II) halide complexes ligated by PEt 3 , PCy 3 , and P( o -tol) 3 were successfully synthesized by direct oxidative addition of aryl halide to the corresponding Pd(0) precursors. Suzuki–Miyaura coupling polymerization of 2-(7-halide-9,9-dioctylfluoren-2-yl)−1,3,2-dioxaborinane with these Pd(II) complexes as initiators was investigated for the synthesis of poly(fluorene)s with triarylamine end group. Pd(II) complexes with PCy 3 or P( o -tol) 3 exhibited catalytic activity and realized the catalyst-transfer polycondensation at 75 °C and room temperature, respectively, while the polymerization using Pd(II) catalyst ligated by PEt 3 did not proceed, which indicated that the bulky phosphine ligands could facilitate the reductive elimination and further promote the polymerization. In addition, the dimeric Pd(II) complex with P( o -tol) 3 can convert into monomeric Pd(II) intermediate with an open coordination site, which had a higher activity. The end groups of the afforded polyfluorene were analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry, in which the Ar/H end groups are indicative of the catalyst-transfer polymerization. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

CO 2 copolymer diol-based thermal polyurethane elastomers (PPC-TPU) were prepared by the reaction of CO 2 copolymer diol and methylene diphenyl diisocyanate and chain extender (ethylene glycol/1,4-butanediol/1,6-hexanediol) (EG/BDO/HG). The rheological and mechanical properties of PPC-TPU were analyzed. The effects of shear rate, shear temperature, hard segment content, and variety of chain extender on the properties of PPC-TPU were studied. The results showed that the apparent viscosity (η) of PPC-TPU decreased with the increasing shear rate ( τ ), and the non-Newtonian index ( n ) was less than 1. PPC-TPU exhibited a typical character of pseudoplastic non-Newtonian rheological behavior. The degradation during the processing was obviously inhibited by adding plasticizer and antioxidant. It was also discovered that the apparent viscosity varied with the content of hard segment and chain extender. Under the same temperature (185 °C) and shear rate (50 s −1 ), the apparent viscosity increased considerably with the raise of hard segment content, and the apparent viscosity and tensile strength of PPC-TPU with EG as chain extender was the maximum. It can be seen that with the apparent shear rate increasing, the variation tendency of apparent shear stress levels off, and the nonlinear relationship of τ – γ curve tended to be obvious. PPC-TPU exhibited a typical character of pseudoplastic non-Newtonian rheological behavior. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2018 , 135 , 45974.

Surface modification of nanomaterials with polymers is an effective route to render new functions and improve the performance of the final nanocomposites. Here, a facile method was developed to fabricate polyacrylic acid (PAA)-grafted monodisperse SiO 2 nanoparticles (SiO 2 -PDA-PAA) through a combination of mussel inspired chemistry and Michael addition reaction. To obtain the products, the SiO 2 nanoparticles were first coated with polydopamine (PDA) through self-polymerization of dopamine under rather mild conditions. The PDA thin films can then be further conjugated with amino-terminated PAA, which was synthesized by chain transfer free radical polymerization using cysteamine hydrochloride as a chain transfer agent and acrylic acid as a monomer. The SiO 2 -PDA-PAA nanocomposites were characterized via transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The effects of contact time, solution pH, temperature and methylene blue (MB) concentration on the removal of MB were investigated. The results demonstrated that SiO 2 -PDA-PAA showed significant improvement in adsorption efficiency towards MB. The kinetics and isotherm studies showed that pseudo-second-order and Langmuir isotherm models were well fitted the experimental data. The values of thermodynamics parameters such as entropy change ( ΔS 0 ), enthalpy change ( ΔH 0 ) and Gibbs free energy ( ΔG 0 ) were calculated based on the Van’t Hoff equation. The negative values of thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption of MB was a feasible, spontaneous and exothermic process. In summary, we developed a facile method to fabricate SiO 2 -based polymer nanocomposites, which showed obviously enhanced adsorption capability towards MB.

Carboxylated pillar[5]arene (CP5) macrocycles were modified onto the surface of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) via covalent bonds to form new pillarene-functionalized RGO nanosheets, i.e. , RGO-CP5. The obtained RGO-CP5 nanosheets capable of molecular recognition exhibited much better water-dispersibility and enhanced fluorescence-quenching property as compared with native RGO. This new sensing platform holds great potentials in the sensing and detection of analytes, such as organic dye molecules and pesticides, in aqueous solutions.
