Four inclusion complexes were synthesized from β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) copolymers and potassium sorbate (PSA) using the self-assembly principle. Reactive β-CD monomers carrying unsaturated ester functional groups [β-CD-acryloyl chloride (AC)] were synthesized from β-CD and AC and copolymerized with styrene to obtain β-CD copolymers of the general formula poly(β-CD-AC- co -St). These β-CD copolymers having cavity structures were complexed with PSA to obtain the corresponding inclusion complexes of the general formula poly(β-CD-AC- co -St)/PSA. These complexes were added to the polystyrene (PS) sheets, as an antibacterial additive, to inhibit the adhesion and growth of bacteria on its surface. The chemical and physical structures of copolymers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, and the slow release performance was investigated using ultraviolet spectroscopy. The results showed that the composition of the copolymers and their molecular weight could be controlled by changing the rate of charge while the rate and the amount of slow release could be controlled by altering the content of β-CD in the copolymer. The PS sheets containing the inclusion complexes exhibited excellent antibacterial activity that significantly reduced the adhesion of yeast and Staphylococcus aureus to its surface. With the increase of the β-CD content in the copolymers, they contained more of PSA and their bacteriostatic property became more pronounced. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

The solubility of d -sorbitol was measured in methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, n-butanol, THF, acetone, ethyl acetate and acetonitrile at temperatures ranging from 278.15 to 333.15 K under atmospheric pressure by gravimetric method. The solubility data were correlated with modified Apelblat equation and λh equation which showed that the solubility of d -sorbitol in these organic solvents increased with increasing temperature. The thermodynamic properties of the dissolution process, including enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs energy , were calculated by means of van't Hoff analysis and Gibbs equation. According to the experimental results, ethanol showed to be a relatively better solvent in crystallization process of d -sorbitol.

The synthesis of bio-based polymers using renewable bio-monomers have received extensive research attention to meet the concept of environmental sustainability. Isosorbide (ISB) derived from biomass is commonly used in the polycarbonate industry as an alternative to bisphenol A (BPA) because it is green, non-toxic, and more widely available. Compared to BPA-based polycarbonate, isosorbide-based polycarbonate has excellent properties such as high transparency, easy coloration, and outstanding rigidity. However, the naturally low refractive index of isosorbide triggers the latter to fall outside the threshold of optical applications. In order to further improve the refractive index of isosorbide-based polycarbonate without affecting its transparency and rigidity, a copolymerization scheme of bisphenol monomers (BPs) with isosorbide is proposed in this work. A series of isosorbide–bisphenol copolycarbonates were synthesized by a melt polycondensation process using ionic liquid 1,4-(1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane)butyl dibromide ([C 4 (DABCO) 2 ][Br] 2 ) as the catalyst. As expected, the monomer structure had significant effect on the optical property and molecular weight of the copolycarbonates, the monomer bis( p -hydroxyphenyl) ether (BPO) had better reactivity among the screened seven monomers resulting in relatively higher molecular weight. Moreover, poly(BPO- co -ISB carbonate) (POIC) using BPO as the monomer exhibited a high Abbe number (v d = 39.7), low yellowness index (YI = 0.93), and a higher refractive index (n d = 1.536), which was much higher than poly(isosorbide carbonate) (1.496). Therefore, a series of POICs were further prepared to investigate the effect of BPO content on the optical, thermal, mechanical, and hydrophobic properties of the materials. The results showed that the copolymers POICs had higher refractive indices (1.511–1.573), better thermal stability, flexibility, hydrophobicity and processing-friendly glass transition temperature (T g ) and pencil hardness, and thus are expected to be sustainable materials for optical lenses.

Pear powdery mildew (PPM), caused by Phyllactinia pyri , is one of the most serious diseases affecting production in the Hebei pear-growing region of China. Iminoctadine trialbesilate and trifloxystrobin are known to have broad-spectrum activity against a wide range of plant pathogens, including P. pyri . A total of 105 P. pyri strains were isolated from 11 cities in Hebei Province from 2017 to 2019. Iminoctadine trialbesilate and trifloxystrobin significantly inhibited P. pyri growth. Microscopic observation showed that P. pyri mycelia had different degrees of desiccation and that the conidial cell contents had been released. The sensitivities of 60 P. pyri strains to iminoctadine trialbesilate and trifloxystrobin were determined in vitro, and the average EC 50 values were 0.5773 ± 0.0014 and 1.2038 ± 0.0010 μg/ml, respectively. The average EC 50 values for 85 and 75% of the strains with continuous single peak frequency distributions were 0.4534 ± 0.0012 and 0.8124 ± 0.0039 μg/ml, respectively. These data could be used as the baseline sensitivities of P. pyri to these two fungicides. The maximum difference multiples of the sensitivities of P. pyri strains from the different cities to iminoctadine trialbesilate and trifloxystrobin were 13.5- and 17.2-fold, respectively. Cluster analysis showed that there was no significant correlation between P. pyri sensitivity and geographical origin. The field efficacies in controlling PPM were higher than 85%. These findings can improve how we monitor iminoctadine trialbesilate and trifloxystrobin resistance and improve application efficiency.

The ‘Jingbaili’ pear is a national geographical indication product of China, featuring an oblate shape and being rich in nutrients. But the quality of the ‘Jingbaili’ pear is unstable. Xenia can cause changes in the quality of pears, but the effect of xenia on the ‘Jingbaili’ pear is unknown, and its mechanism is still unclear. In order to clarify the effect of pollination on the fruit quality of the ’Jingbaili’ pear, this research pollinated ‘Jingbaili’ pear flowers with the pollen of ‘Yali’ (JY), ‘Suli’ (JS) and ‘Huangli’ (JH). The results indicated that the mass, transverse diameter and longitudinal diameter of the JY group were significantly higher than the JS group and JH group. On the other hand, the pears of the JY group and JS group obtained higher soluble sugar content. The aroma content of characteristic compounds was higher in the JY group than in the JS group and JH group. Multivariate analysis revealed significant differences in the nonvolatile metabolites among the JY group, JS group and JH group, potentially explaining the variations in the nutritional and flavor compounds of the pears. Furthermore, this research investigated metabolic changes in the pears during development and ripening under the three types of pollination. The results showed that amino acid metabolism differed among these pollination types during development. These differences may be the cause of the observed variations in the pears. This research clarified the effect of xenia on the nutritional components and flavor substances in the ‘Jingbaili’ pear and could provide data support for improving the quality of the ‘Jingbaili’ pear.

Oleogelation based on emulsion using food-approved biopolymers is a feasible strategy to substitute solid fat with harmful trans and saturated fatty acids, providing food products with a better nutritional profile . However, oil with high content of unsaturated fatty acids is prone to oxidation , resulting in quality loss of food products. In the present study, proanthocyanidins from Chinese bayberry leaves (BLPs) were incorporated into emulsion-based oleogel to remedy the defect through the formation of colloidal complexes with gelatin. Oleogel stabilized with the colloidal complexes showed higher stability with lower oil loss and higher gel strength, compared to that with gelatin only. Then different polysaccharides were applied to further promote oleogel stability. However, polysaccharides abrogated the promotive effect of BLPs and resulted in comparable stability of oleogels with BLPs or not, which was confirmed with cryo-SEM observation. Then the application of oleogel with BLPs as margarine alternative was verified with batter properties, quality loss of cakes and oil stability in cakes. Batter properties of oleogel with BLPs were comparable to that without BLPs, and more close to margarine than oil. For quality loss, textural properties of oleogel cakes with BLPs or not resembled each other and were significantly better than oil cakes in hardness and chewiness and margarine cakes in cohesiveness. Particularly, BLPs were verified to retard oil oxidation in both oleogel and cakes prepared with oleogel. Overall, incorporation of BLPs into oleogel was feasible to improve its oil stability and keep its application in cake products.

In this study the effect of flexible 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol (CHDM) units on the reactive blending of poly(isosorbide- co -CHDM carbonate) (I c C-PC) with bisphenol-A polycarbonate (BPA-PC) was investigated and the contributions of chain flexibility and compatibility to transesterification were clarified. FTIR analysis revealed the presence of specific interactions between the CHDM segments of I c C-PC and the carbonyl group and phenyl rings of BPA-PC, leading to thermodynamic miscibility of the polymer blends when the CHDM content was higher than 50 mol% in I c C-PC. Addition of organotin catalysts during melt blending triggered transesterification between I c C-PC and BPA-PC, transforming the opaque blends into transparent alloys with a single T g when the transesterification ratio reached a critical value. It was found that the reactivity of isosorbide (ISB) segments was higher than that of CHDM segments. The increase in the CHDM/ISB ratio first accelerated and then slowed down the transesterification, demonstrating that, despite of the low reactivity of the CHDM segments, the enhanced chain flexibility and compatibility were effective for promoting transesterification. Anyway, copolymerization of CHDM with ISB improved the compatibility of I c C-PC with BPA-PC, reduced the critical transesterification ratio for transparency, and remarkably shortened the blending time essential for the large-scale fabrication of transparent ISB-based polycarbonate alloys by twin-screw reactive extrusion .

Abstract The selective conversion of cellulose to sorbitol is a promising route to valorize biomass. A binary catalyst ZrP-Ru/MC was constructed by mesoporous carbon supported ruthenium (Ru/MC) combined with zirconium phosphate (ZrP). It was found that ZrP-Ru/MC was an excellent catalyst for the conversion of cellulose with high sorbitol yield. Under the optimal reaction condition, a high sorbitol yield of 66.4% was obtained in just 1.5 h if cellulose was mix-milled together with ZrP. The characterizations results indicated that the high dispersion of Ru and macroporous–mesoporous structure were the key factor to determine the excellent catalytic activity of Ru/MC. In addition, the Ru TOF of 220 h −1 in the Ru/MC was much higher than that of commercial ruthenium carbon, indicating the high Ru utilization in Ru/MC. Graphic Abstract

Cacopsylla chinensis (Yang and Li) (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) is an important pest of pear in China. As an alternative to conventional chemical pesticides, botanicals including essential oils and their constituents could provide an eco-friendly and nonhazardous control method. In this study, the essential oil of clove buds ( Syzygium aromaticum ) was obtained by hydrodistillation. Five constituents, accounting for 99.89% of the oil, were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and the major constituents were eugenol (88.61%) and eugenol acetate (8.89%), followed by β -caryophyllene (1.89%). In a laboratory bioassay, clove essential oil, commercial eugenol (99.00%) and β -caryophyllene (98.00%) exhibited strong contact toxicity against the summerform adults of C. chinensis with LD 50 values of 0.730, 0.673, and 0.708 µg/adult, and against the nymphs with LD 50 values of 1.795, 1.668, and 1.770 µg/nymph, respectively. In contrast, commercial eugenol acetate (98%) had LD 50 values of 9.266 µg/adult and 9.942 µg/nymph. In a field trial, clove essential oil caused significant population reductions of 73.01% (4.80 mg/ml), 66.18% (2.40 mg/ml) and 46.56% (1.20 mg/ml), respectively. Our results demonstrated that clove essential oil and its constituents have potential as a source of natural insecticides.

By the gravimetric method, the solubility of sorbic acid in eight solvents including ethanol, 2-propanol, methanol, 1-butanol, ethyl acetate, methyl tert-butyl ether, acetone and acetonitrile was determined over a temperature range from 285.15 to K at atmospheric pressure. For the temperature range investigated, the solubility of sorbic acid in the solvents increased with increasing temperature. The experimental values were correlated with the linear solvation energy relationship, modified Apelblat equation, λh equation, non-random two-liquid (NRTL) model, and Wilson model. On the other hand, the enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs free energy of dissolution were obtained from these solubility values by using the van’t Hoff and Gibbs equations. The excess enthalpy of solution was estimated on the basis of λh equation. Furthermore, the a priori predictive model COSMO-RS was employed to predict the solubility of sorbic acid in selected solvents and reasonable agreement with experimental values is achieved.

This article describes the implementation of plant-derived isosorbide (IS) and isomannide (IM) in the copolymerization modification of poly(ethylene terephthalate). The effects of the two comonomers on the optical, crystallization, and thermal properties of the resulting copolyesters were studied using the following analytical methods: proton nuclear magnetic resonance; differential scanning calorimetry; X-ray diffraction; thermogravimetry; and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. As comonomers, IS and IM increased the transmittance and reduced the haze of the copolyesters. Moreover, while IM improved the optical properties more than did IS, both monomers improved the optical properties of the copolyesters by lowering its crystallization ability. After the copolymerization modification, the crystallization rate of the copolyesters was reduced, decreasing the crystallinity and crystal size and thereby reducing the light transmission interference. The comonomers also altered the light absorption properties of the copolyesters and conferred a substantial increase in the transmittance of near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths. These changes in optical properties exhibit the potential of these comonomers for applications in optical materials and NIR detectors. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Respiration and energy metabolism are intricately linked to the quality and senescence of fruit after harvest. This investigation was carried out to examine alternations in quality parameters, respiration, and energy metabolism of ‘Zaosu’ pears subsequent to phenyllactic acid immersion. Results demonstrated that phenyllactic acid treatment led to a reduction in L * , a * , b * values, ΔE, and mass loss. Additionally, it maintained ascorbic acid, reducing sugar, soluble sugar, soluble solids, and chlorophyll contents; delayed the decrease in flesh firmness and titratable acidity of pears. The activities and gene expressions of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glucose phosphate isomerase, hexokinase, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide kinase, cytochrome C oxidase, and succinate dehydrogenasepears in pears were enhanced by phenyllactic acid. Moreover, phenyllactic acid promoted PbPK , PbAOX , PbH + -ATPase , and PbCa 2+ -ATPase expressions, while inhibiting malate dehydrogenase activity and the expressions of PbPFK and PbMDH in pears. Phenyllactic acid also led to a decrease in the levels of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrogen and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, while causing an increase in the levels of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate hydrogen and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate within the fruit. Collectively, postharvest phenyllactic acid treatment can effectively preserve the storage quality of ‘Zaosu’ pears by regulating the activity and gene expression of the key enzymes involved in respiration and energy metabolism.
