Polylactic acid (PLA) is a kind of polyester from biomass. To increase the ductility of PLA, melt blending was used to prepare the polylactic acid/poly(butylene diglycolate) blends in this study. The effect of poly(butylene diglycolate) (PBD) on the thermal, crystallization, tensile, and dynamic mechanical properties of PLA was investigated. The blend containing 30 wt% PBD has a substantially improved elongation at break (79%) due to the lower glass transition temperature of PBD compared to PLA. The results indicated that PLA and PBD exhibited partial compatibility, which was confirmed by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis showed there is the interaction between PLA and PBD. In summary, the incorporation of PBD resulted in improved mechanical properties, indicating potential for applications requiring enhanced ductility.

A new complex rare earth borate K7PbLu2B15O30 was prepared by the spontaneous crystallization method. K7PbLu2B15O30 is crystallized in the chiral trigonal space group R32 with cell parameters a = b = 13.0893(3) Å, c = 15.2379(6) Å, α = β = 90°, γ = 120°, and Z = 3. The basic structure of the crystal can be seen as composed of B5O10 groups and LuO6 polyhedra sharing oxygen atoms, while K+ and Pb2+ fill the space to balance the charge. The UV transmission cut-off edge of K7PbLu2B15O30 was less than 300 nm, and the powder SHG response was roughly 1.1 times that of KDP. Furthermore, a first-principles analysis was performed to see more about the relationship between the crystal structure and optical characteristics.

A porous graphene (PG) bionanocomposite of PG, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and anti-indole-3-acetic acid (anti-IAA) antibody for sensitive and label-free amperometric immunoassay of IAA was reported. A PG film was produced by a pre-reduction/electrochemical reduction process on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and then a homogeneous AuNPs layer electrodeposition on the PG film. The anti-IAA antibody was immobilized onto the AuNPs through electrostatic adsorption and covalent conjugation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), cyclic voltammetry (CV), elecro-chemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), ultraviolet visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were used to characterize the PG film and the stepwise modification of the immunosensor. The electrochemical immunosensor exhibited a wide linear range from 2 × 10−11 to 2 × 10−8 g mL−1 with a detection limit of 0.016 ng mL−1 (S/N = 3) and showed significant linearity R2 = 0.9970. In addition, the proposed immunosensor showed acceptable selectivity and has been applied to the determination of IAA in the extract samples of several plant seeds with acceptable relative derivation (%) ranging from −5.25% to 4.24% between the immunosensor and high performance liquid chromatography. The proposed chemical pre-reduction and electro-reduction guided protocol can be extended to the preparation of many other functionalized PG nanocomposite films for wide applications.

A simple and fast method of low-density solvent based dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (LDS-DLLME) followed by high-performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS) has been developed for the speciation analysis of organoarsenic and inorganic arsenic in water samples. The low-density solvent (octanol) was given as the organic phase and injected into the aqueous sample (donor phase) with methanol as the disperser. With As (V), As (III), p-APAA, 4-HPAA, ROX and PAA as target species, factors of LDS-DLLME including pH value, anionic carriers, elution conditions and extractant, were studied in detail. Besides, volumes of solvents were further optimised by response surface methodology. Under the optimal conditions, the limits of detection for four phenylarsenics and arsenate were in the range of 0.001–0.039 μg L−1. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) were 3.6–9.4% and the enrichment factors varied from 6.2 to 70.8. The proposed method of LDS-DLLME-HPLC-ICP-MS was satisfactorily applied to the determination of six arsenic compounds in water samples with recoveries of 81.8–111.7% for the spiked lake water samples.

In this study, a visual and ultrasensitive method for the determination of trace mercury ions in water was developed based on the high efficiency of urease catalysis and pH-sensitive inverse opal polymeric photonic crystals (IOPPCs). Mercury ions can inhibit urea hydrolysis and suppress the production of ammonium and bicarbonate ions in the solution, resulting in the redshift of IOPPCs. Therefore, the redshift of IOPPCs Bragg diffraction is directly related to the concentration of mercury ions. Meanwhile, the color of IOPPCs varied significantly with the shift of the Bragg diffraction wavelength, thus achieving the visual semi-quantitative detection of mercury ions by the naked eye. The minimum detection concentration of this method is 5 × 10 −16 g/L, which is much lower than the maximum contaminant level for the safe drinking of water (2 × 10 −6 g/L) recommended by the environmental protection agency (EPA), USA. In addition, this is a simple and quick method for effective on-site detection of mercury ions, which shows a great promise in emergency leakage monitoring and control.

A simple glass/PDMS microfluidic chip for on-line sample pretreatment and contactless conductivity detection, which consisted of a 0.17 mm-thick glass cover and a PDMS substrate embedded with an SPE monolithic column, was presented in this paper. Using this integrated microchip system, sample extraction, injection, separation and detection were automatically performed in sequence. A sample of auramine O was concentrated by molecularly imprinted SPE (MISPE), eluted to sample reservoir, and injected by electromigration into separation channel for electrophoresis separation and contactless conductivity detection, with the calculated detection limit (S/N = 3) being 2.5 μg mL − 1 . The monolithic column was utilized to quantitatively extract auramine O , yielding an on-line enrichment factor of about 12. The microchip system is reliable and applicable to the analysis of auramine O in food sample.

Methanol is an attractive oxygenate increasingly used as primary fuel for dual-fuel combustion technology yielding beneficial thermal-efficiency and emissions in modern engines. As such, it is significant to fundamentally understand the autoignition behavior of methanol/diesel mixtures. This study measured the ignition delay times (IDTs) of methanol/diesel blends with different mixing ratios (30%, 50%, 70% methanol by mol.) on a heated shock tube and a heated rapid compression machine at temperatures of 650−1450 K, pressures of 6−20 bar, and equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0. The typical two-stage ignition characteristics with the negative temperature coefficient response were observed for dual-fuel mixtures. In general, both the total and first-stage IDTs decrease with the increment of pressure and equivalence ratio as well as diesel proportion in mixtures. The simulation results performed with a published detailed mechanism in conjunction with a tri-component diesel surrogate demonstrate generally good agreement with the experimental data at all test conditions. Moreover, a crossover of IDTs occurs at a higher temperature (~1500 K) for varying equivalence ratios, and experiment and simulation both exhibit a non-linear mixing effect of methanol addition on diesel ignition. Interestingly, simulation results clearly suggest a crossover (~940 K) for mixtures with varying methanol content at an intermediate-temperature, where the IDT of the mixture with a lower methanol ratio becomes longer as the temperature is higher than that of the crossover. Furthermore, brute-force sensitivity analyses assisted with reaction path analysis were conducted to gain deeper insights into the autoignition chemistry of dual-fuel mixtures, especially for the chemical interaction between both fuels during the low-temperature oxidation process . It is found that methanol hardly generates •OH, whereas •OH is mainly produced by the low-temperature reaction pathways of diesel. Thus, •OH is the bridge for both fuels during the ignition process. At the high methanol ratio, the H-abstraction of diesel is mainly via •HO 2 while CH 3 OH consumes a large percentage of •OH. Consequently, the competition between methanol and diesel for •OH radicals inhibits the overall reactivity of reaction network. In addition, the original data reported here lay a foundation for the development and validation of more accurate and robust dual-fuel kinetic schemes.

Two new isostructural lead borates , Pb 8 Mg(BO 3 ) 6 and Pb 8 Ca(BO 3 ) 6 , have been synthesized via high temperature solution method. The single crystal structures of title compounds contain ∞ [Pb 8 B 6 O 18 ] 2- double layers composed of planar BO 3 triangles, Pb(2)O 9 and distorted Pb(1)O 5 polyhedra, these layers condense in c -axis, and the MgO 6 (or CaO 6 ) polyhedra fill into the layers, forming a three-dimensional framework. The stereochemical activity of lone pair (SCALP) electrons were found in the Pb(1)O 5 polyhedra, which combine with the BO 3 units, generating strong optical anisotropy . The calculated birefringences of Pb 8 Mg(BO 3 ) 6 and Pb 8 Ca(BO 3 ) 6 using first-principles method are 0.15@1064 nm and 0.12@1064 nm, respectively, which are comparable to the commercial α -BaB 2 O 4 (α-BBO) crystal and imply that they probably can be used as birefringent materials. The electronic structures, density of states of title compounds were calculated by density functional theory (DFT). Meanwhile, the TG-DSC curves, infrared spectral and UV–Vis–NIR diffuse reflectance spectral were measured.

The work is focused on the design of drugs that prevent and treat Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and its complications. A series of 3–(4-aminophenyl)-coumarin derivatives designed, synthesised, fully characterised and evaluated in vitro/vivo. The biological assay experiments showed that some compounds displayed a clearly selective inhibition for acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE). Among all compounds, compound 4m exhibited the highest AChE inhibition with an IC50 value of 0.091 ± 0.011 µM and compound 4k exhibited the highest BuChE inhibition with an IC50 value of 0.559 ± 0.017 µM. A zebrafish behaviour analyser (Zebrobox) was used to determine the behavioural effects of the active compound on the movement distance of the aluminium chloride-induced zebrafish. Compound 4m offered a potential drug design concept for the development of therapeutic or preventive agents for AD and its complications.

A new strategy for signal amplification was introduced in a label-free amperometric immunoassay platform. Improvements in the signal occurred following the oxidation of glucose by glucose oxidase and catalysis by polythionine of the produced H 2 O 2 from the previous oxidation reaction. In addition, a multifunctional conductive hydrogel, polypyrrole-polythionine-gold with glucose oxidase , was synthesised with a one-pot method using pyrrole and thionine as monomers, ammonium persulfate and HAuCl 4 as co-oxidant agents, and glucose oxidase as the doping agent. Combined with the hydrogel, a label-free amperometric immunoassay for the tumour marker neuron-specific enolase (NSE) was obtained. If operated at 0 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), the sensor exhibited a wide liner range from 100 ng mL −1 to 1 pg mL −1 and ultralow detection limit of 0.65 pg mL −1 (S/N = 3). The presented method was further used for the analysis of human serum samples and showed good consistency with detection results from an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay.

Food safety has been an issue of common concern in today’s society. Excessive benzoic acid (BA) additives in wheat flour would pose a huge threat to human health. In this paper, terahertz (THz) time-domain spectroscopy was used to detect BA quantitatively, which is a preservative additive in flour. Samples were prepared by grinding, drying, weighing, mixing and performing successively according to the designed concentration gradient (concentration 0.04%, 0.08%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, …, 10%), with the BA concentration ranging from 0.040% to 19.99%. Then the THz Spectra of wheat flour samples with different concentrations of BA were collected. After preprocessing the original terahertz spectra with multiple scattering correction and other methods, Competitive Adaptive Reweighted Sampling (CARS), Genetic Algorithm (GA), Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Uninformative Variable Elimination (UVE) were used to select effective spectral bands, and then Partial Least Squares (PLS) and Least Square Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM) models were established respectively. It turned out that the absorption peak of BA was at 1.94 THz of terahertz absorption coefficient, which increased with the rise of BA concentration. The results also indicated that better modeling results could be obtained by using CARS method for variable selection. And the established CARS-PCA-LS-SVM model had the best prediction result by combining PCA with CARS, with the correlation coefficient of the prediction (R p ) of 0.9956 and Root Mean Square Error of Prediction (RMSEP) of 0.64%. Hence, it can be concluded that terahertz technology combined with LS-SVM model can well achieve the quantitative detection of BA concentration in flour. Although the model is not universal since samples size is not large enough, the research method provides a basis for the detection of BA additives in flour.

Under the two frequency microwave conditions of 915 and 2450 MHz, orthogonal tests were designed to investigate the effects of organic acid reagent, microwave irradiation time, and mixing time of additives and coal samples on the desulfurization effect of coal. Results show that the effect of irradiation time on the experimental desulfurization efficiency under frequency microwave conditions is large and is the main factor. The desulfurization effect under 915 MHz microwave condition is better than 2450 MHz microwave condition. Two sets of experimental optimal coal samples were used for characterization and analysis. Thermogravimetric analysis revealed that the combustion temperature range of the coal samples is shortened and the integrated combustion index is considerably higher after the microwave irradiation experiment. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy analysis showed that the overall chemical structure of the coal samples does not change significantly after the experimental treatment. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis showed that the intensity of organic sulfur in coal samples is weakened after microwave irradiation, the characteristic peaks of thiols and thioethers are reduced to a great extent, and an increase in the intensity of sulfoxide organic sulfur is observed. On the basis of the results of experimental analysis and quantum chemical simulation calculations, the mechanism of organosulfur structure removal under the action of microwave is revealed.
