The CdS/ spherical g-C 3 N 4 n-n heterojunction photocatalyst was fabricated via a solvothermal method. The tetracycline was used to characterize the photocatalytic properties of the as-developed hybrids. The photocatalytic degradation mechanism of the as-developed heterojunction photocatalyst was also analyzed. Research results show that CdS nanoparticles are well dispersed in the surface layer of spherical g-C 3 N 4 . Moreover, the mass ratio of CdS to spherical g-C 3 N 4 will influence the photocatalytic activity of the asdeveloped composites, which shows the trend of first increasing and then decreasing as it increased. When the mass ratio is 7:1, in 25 min, the as-developed heterojunction shows 93.2 % of the maximum photocatalytic efficiency and still exhibits 83.6 % after 5 times cycle testing. Moreover, the as-developed hybrids can accelerate the electron transport and improve the separation efficiency of photo-generated carriers compared with pure samples. In addition, the holes and superoxide radicals are dominating active species during the photocatalytic degradation process.

La(OH) 3 /BiOCl n-n heterojunction (BCL) was successfully fabricated by facile microwave technique. Photocatalytic performance experiments confirmed that BCL-20 can degrade 20 mg/L tetracycline hydrochloride (TC-HCl) about 85% in 60 min, which is 2 and 0.5 times higher than that of BiOCl and La(OH) 3 , respectively. The photocatalytic mechanism reveals that the co-effect of oxygen vacancies (OVs) and rebuilt internal electric field induced by heterostructure not only broaden the light-responsive range but also augment the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers, thus improving the photocatalytic properties of BCL. This work provides a new avenue for improving the photocatalytic performance of Bi-based photocatalysts by heterojunction and OVs.

Graphical Another drop of copper : A non-noble metal catalyst of Cu/TiO 2 is effective for the heterogeneous N -methylation of N -methylaniline with CO 2 and H 2 , in which CHO* is formed as methyl reagent, and it reacts with N -methylaniline to produce intermediate N -methylformanilide followed by its hydrogenation to N,N -dimethylaniline. A non-noble heterogeneous catalyst of Cu/TiO 2 was prepared for N -methylation of N -methylaniline (MA) with CO 2 and H 2 . 5 wt.–% Cu loaded TiO 2 (P25) catalyst exhibited a high performance, with 82 % MA conversion and 98 % N,N -dimethylaniline (DMA) selectivity under the reaction conditions used (4 MPa H 2 , 2 MPa CO 2 , 180 °C, 36 h). The Cu/TiO 2 catalyst was more effective with respective to the total conversion and the DMA selectivity as compared to 5 wt.–% Cu loaded catalysts on CeO 2 , ZnO and activated carbon materials. The possible active species of Cu/TiO 2 catalyst should be both Cu + and Cu 0 which contributed to the high activity as the reaction conversion increased linearly with them exposed on the surface of catalyst. Moreover, the reaction pathways involved were studied; it was likely that the reaction took place via an intermediate of formaldehyde that was formed from CO 2 and H 2 , as confirmed by in situ diffuse reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, then it reacted with MA to give N -methylformanilide (MFA), and finally MFA was hydrogenated to DMA.

Electron transport layer (ETL)-free perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are getting much more attention with their simpler structure and potentially low cost as well as higher stability. However, the elimination of ETL (such as TiO 2 ) with intrinsically deep valance band level leads to the absence of the hole blocking mechanism and thus serious charge recombination at the FTO/perovskite interface compared with ETL-based devices. An interface band bending associated built-in electric field is an essential driving force of charge separation. Here, by intentional polarity tailoring of perovskite via incorporation of Sb as a shallow donor, ETL-free PSCs with optimized energy level alignment both at the front and rear interfaces are constructed, resulting in an enhanced built-in electric field and thus efficient majority carrier collection and minority blocking as well as reduced interfacial charge recombination at both interfaces. Device simulation calculations also confirm the importance of polarity control for device performance improvement. The effect of doping on the perovskite films properties and device performance are systematically demonstrated. Correspondingly, ETL-free PSCs with a champion power conversion efficiency of 12.62% is achieved.

Catalytic fixation of CO2 to produce valuable fine chemicals is of great significance to develop a green and sustainable circulation of excessive carbon in the environment. Herein, a series of non-toxic, biodegradable and recyclable acetylcholine-carboxylate bio-ionic liquids with different cations and anions were simply synthesized for producing formamides and methylamines using atmospheric CO2 as a carbon source, and phenylsilane as a hydrogen donor. The selectivity toward products was tuned by altering the reaction temperature under solvent or solvent-free conditions. N-Methylamines (ca. 96% yield) were obtained in acetonitrile at 50 °C, while N-formamides (ca. 99% yield) were attained without a solvent at 30 °C. The established bio-ionic liquid catalytic system found a wide range of applicability in substrates and possessed a high potentiality in scale-up to gram-grade production. The developed catalytic system was fairly stable, which could be easily reused without an apparent loss of reactivity, possibly due to the strong electrostatic interactions between the cation and anion. The combination of experimental and computational results explicitly elucidated the reaction mechanism: PhSiH3 activated by a bio-IL was favorable for the formation of silyl formate from hydrosilylation of CO2, followed by a reaction with an amine to give an N-formamide, while an N-methylamine was formed by further hydrosilylation of the N-formamide.

The aim of this study is to synthesize well-defined bioreducible core crosslinked star (CCS) polymers via heterogeneous reversible addition-fragmentation transfer (RAFT) polymerization in aqueous ethanol solutions. To this end, water-soluble linear arm polymers, poly (poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate) (PPEGMA), poly (2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) and poly ( N , N -dimethylacrylamide) (PDMA), were prepared respectively. Next, heterogenous RAFT polymerization of the polymers with N , N ′-bis(acryloyl)cystamine (BAC) as a crosslinker was systemically investigated in an aqueous ethanol solvent. It was found that these bioreducible CCS polymers with crosslinked BAC core could be prepared successfully depending on polymerization parameters. The formation of PPEGMA-based CCS polymers was affected by water volume fraction ( V w ) of water-ethanol solution, reaction time, arm polymer concentration, and spacing monomer . Besides, at an optimal V w of 80% ( i . e . the molar concentration of water is 44.44 M) and arm polymer concentration of 10% (w/v), PPEGMA-based CCS polymers at >90% yield could be achieved within 1 h. By the same V w and reaction time, PDMAEMA- and PDMA-based CCS polymers could also be prepared with high yield (>75%). The mechanism underlying the formation of the CCS polymers was ascribed to enhanced driving force of polymerization-induced self-assembly at an optimal V w . These CCS polymers were degradable in thiol-containing dithiothreitol, suggesting their potential application for drug release in a reductive intracellular environment.

A series of poly(ester-imide-ether), consisting of soft segments from poly(tetramethylene glycol) and N,N ′-bis(2-carboxyethyl) pyromellitimide and hard segments based on 1,4-butanediol and N,N ′-bis(2-carboxyethyl) pyromellitimide, were synthesized via the melt polycondensation. The chemical structures of the prepared elastomers were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and 1 HNMR, respectively. The results indicated that the introduction of aromatic bisimide groups endows the elastomers with excellent thermal stability and mechanical property, which increase with the increment of imide unit content in the prepared elastomers. Additionally, compared to the poly(ester-ether) elastomer, these poly(esterimide-ether) fibers displayed stronger tensile strength and better low-temperature elastic recovery property.

Five new optically active poly(amide–imide)s (PAIs) (PAI3a–PAI3e) were synthesized through the direct polycondensation reaction between chiral N,N′-(pyromellitoyl)-bis-l-amino acids and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether. The resulted polymers were fully characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, elemental analysis, inherent viscosity measurement, solubility tests, specific rotation, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The biodegradation studies of the PAIs were performed in soil and in phosphate buffer solution. The surface morphology and hydrophobicity of the biodegraded PAI films were investigated. FTIR spectra showed structural changes on PAI powders being treated in phosphate buffer solution. The TGA data showed that the thermal stability of PAI powders decreased with the degradation time. The collected degradation products were soluble in water and had absorption in ultraviolet and visible light region. Possible biodegradation mechanism of amino acid-based PAIs was explored.

To functionalize poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) for various applications, monomers containing tertiary amine group are incorporated into PVC via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiated by the labile chlorines in their backbones. The kinetics of synthesis was carefully investigated, and it is proven that the grafting polymerization process can be effectively controlled by regulating the reaction time. The membranes are fabricated using PVC and copolymers by non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) process. The hydrophilicity and pore structure of copolymer membranes were enhanced as well, these membranes are endowed with positive charge. When PDMA% ( i.e. , the PDMA weight percentage in copolymer) is 31.1%, the flux and Victoria blue B rejection are 26.0 L·m -2 ·h -1 (0.5 MPa) and 91.2%, respectively. Thus, the newly synthesized polymer is proven to be a promising material for dye separation with positive charges.

The blended membranes of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and chitosan (CS) (PVA-CS) were prepared for pervaporation dehydration of a binary system of n -butyl acetate/water and a ternary mixture of n -butyl acetate/ n -butanol/water. Membranes were characterized by FTIR, DSC and XRD to investigate the intermolecular interactions, the blending compatibility and the effects of blending on crystallinity. Tensile strengths were measured to determine the influence of blending ratios on the membrane’s mechanical properties. The membrane’s degree of swelling in water dropped significantly with increasing CS fraction. The results agreed well with the calculation of the solubility parameter. Separation factor and permeation flux increased when the temperature was raised for both the binary and ternary pervaporation systems. An optimal separation factor of 27,000 with a total flux of 402 g·m −2 ·h −1 was obtained using the blend membrane containing 25 wt% CS at 40 °C for the binary system. For the ternary system, the maximum separation factor and total flux were obtained for blend membranes at 75 wt% and 50 wt% CS content, respectively.

Rapid formation of natural gas clathrate hydrates has been a significant hazard in off-shore natural gas drilling and gas transport. During operation, polymer inhibitors can serve as low-dosage kinetic inhibitors to prevent the formation of gas hydrates. A comprehensive consideration of the multiple factors involved in the actions of kinetic hydrate inhibitors (KHIs) can elucidate the inhibiting behavior of polymers. Here, amphiphilic poly(N-isopropylmethacrylamide) (PNIPMAm) (or poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)) are found to achieve weak to strong inhibition by the variable superimposed effect of the polymer’s amide group and hydrophobic effect of the polymer’s alkyl groups on the aqueous phase. The interfacial and bulk water mobility and hydrogen bonding energy in the polymer solutions are compared by low-temperature nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxometry. The mobility of the water is found to be sensitive to the hydrophobic α-methyl side group in PNIPMAm and its molecular weight when a guest molecule tetrahydrofuran is present. The water hydrogen bonding energies measured from NMR are also associated with the nonfreezable bound water amount revealed by differential scanning calorimetry. The α-methyl side group leads to a significant reduction of the water mobility, an increase in the hydrogen bonding energies of the interfacial water, and a decrease of the hydrate growth rate constants by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude. The retarded reaction kinetics of heterogeneous hydrate growth can be related to the hydrophobic effect of the polymer’s α-methyl side group and bound water properties (mobility and amount) in the interface.

Ethylene glycol is odorless and harmful to humans. Each year, a large number of fatal cases are caused by ethylene glycol poisoning. Therefore, rapid identification of ethylene glycol is crucial. In this study, clay-like Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene exhibits a larger interlayer spacing compared to accordion-like Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene, which enhances the gas diffusion channels. Nitrogen doping can increase the active sites of clay-like Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene. The introduction of nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes into N-Ti 3 C 2 T x was carried out to enhance selectivity towards ethylene glycol, leading to the formation of N-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/N-CNTs. The N-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/N-CNTs exhibits significant selectivity towards the ethylene glycol at room temperature. Meanwhile, the detection limit was 0.3484 ppm, with a shortened response/recovery time of 10.57/6.29 s. Meanwhile, the ethylene glycol sensor device has been prepared through custom-made circuit boards and sensing programs. Moreover, the adsorption and oxidation process of ethylene glycol on N-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/N-CNTs was explored through in-situ infrared spectroscopy testing. This study revealed that the oxygen vacancies on the surface of N-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/N-CNTs play a crucial role in the oxidative catalytic detection of ethylene glycol. The strategy of N-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/N-CNTs provides a new avenue for the detection of ethylene glycol.
