Capric–myristic–palmitic acid ternary eutectic mixture (CA–MA–PA) was prepared as phase change material (PCM). A novel composite PCM of CA–MA–PA/expanded graphite (EG) with an optimum mass ratio (CA–MA–PA:EG=13:1) was prepared by uniformly absorbing CA–MA–PA into the porous network structure of the EG. The melting and freezing temperatures of CA–MA–PA/EG composite PCM were measured by differential scanning calorimeter as 18.61 °C and 16.58 °C, respectively, while the melting and freezing latent heats were 128.2 J/g and 124.5 J/g, respectively. The thermal conductivity of the CA–MA–PA/EG composite PCM was measured as 3.67 W/m K and thus the thermal storage and release rates were significantly increased. The thermal cycling test results showed that CA–MA–PA/EG composite PCM has a good thermal reliability. All the above results show that the CA–MA–PA/EG composite PCM is a potential solution for latent heat storage system.

Growing of ZnO nanoparticles on PET films without crystal seeding has been achieved by employing polydopamine as the anchor. The PDA layer was formed on the surface of PET film by the polymerization of dopamine. The PDA-PET was dipped into zinc precursors for hydrothermal growth of ZnO nanoparticles. Cluster-like ZnO nanoparticles were obtained and the special structure was affected by the growing time and zinc ion concentration. The surface morphology, structure and properties were characterized, and the functions including antimicrobial activity and UV protection of the ZnO-coated PET film were investigated. The developed facile hydrothermal approach without seeding will benefit the development of UV resistant and antimicrobial PET films.

In response to issues such as poor accuracy and unstable delay times encountered in the practical use of tungsten-based delay compositions, an analysis of the combustion performance of tungsten-based delay compositions with the addition of copper oxide was conducted. This study selected five tungsten-based composite delay compositions prepared by blending tungsten-based delay compositions with copper oxide at different content, aiming to investigate the influence of varying copper oxide proportions on the combustion characteristics of tungsten-based delay compositions. Microscopic morphologies and thermal decomposition behaviors of the tungsten/copper oxide delay compositions were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), while combustion products were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results indicate that copper oxide exerts a strong catalytic decomposition effect on tungsten-based delay compositions. Specifically, a low concentration of copper oxide enhances the combustion rate of tungsten-based delay compositions, while an increase in copper oxide content subsequently slows down the combustion rate. Notably, tungsten-based delay compositions with 9% copper oxide content demonstrate high precision, good stability, and a relatively slow combustion rate, offering a wider range of adjustability for controlling the combustion speed of delay compositions and providing a feasible method for managing the delay time range in practical applications.

The accumulation of heavy metal on catalysts during petrochemical process produces deactivated catalysts that cannot be directly disposed in nature, due to the high toxicity. The elimination of the detrimental effect of heavy metal ions can be achieved by immobilizing these ions in the form of spinel structure, yet this requires high-temperature calcination . Herein, Ni 2+ ions are stabilized and confined within the surface NiAl 2 O 4 on Al 2 O 3 through hydrothermal process and subsequent low-temperature thermal treatment. The formation of nickel aluminum layered double hydroxide (NiAl-LDH) as intermediate favors the generation of surface aluminate spinel at the temperature as low as 450 °C. The formation of surface spinel is beneficial to restricting the mobility of Ni 2+ ions. The growth and immobilization mechanisms of the surface spinel structure were proposed, which contributes to alternative and promising route for the low-temperature approach of the retention of the heavy metal ions mobility.

The mixed surfactants of dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) and 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide (C 12 mimBr) in aqueous solutions were studied by measurement of electrical conductivity and isothermal titration microcalorimetry (ITC). The critical micelle concentrations (cmc) and the degree of dissociations of counter ions were determined for this system at various surfactant compositions, and the thermodynamic properties of micellization were evaluated. A one-parameter Margules equation was used to fit the cmc values to calculate the mole fraction, the activity coefficients of two surfactant components and the excess properties in mixed micelles.

Solvothermal reaction of 4,4’,4’-nitrilotribenzoic acid (H 3 TCA) with Ca(NO 3 ) 2 ·4H 2 O and Cd(NO 3 ) 2 ·4H 2 O successfully afforded a heterometallic compound, that is, [Cd 2 Ca(TCA) 2 (DMA) 2 (H 2 O) 3 ] n ·2n(DMA) ( 1 , DMA = N,N’-dimethylacetamide). The structure of 1 was further characterized through EA, diffraction of single crystal X-ray, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) together with powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). Moreover, complex 1 ’s luminescent performance in solid state was also discussed at environmental temperature. The applications on the ischemic cerebral infarction therapy were evaluated, and the specific mechanism was investigated at the same time. Firstly, the hypersensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) content in human brain microvascular endothelial cell (HBMEC) was measured with real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Then, interleukin-18 and interleukin-1 β content released through the HBMEC was detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

A fully bio-based benzoxazine, 3-furfuryl-8-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,3-benzoxazine (Bzf), has been prepared using guaiacol, furfurylamine, and paraformaldehyde as raw materials. Its chemical structure has been characterized by 1H and 13C NMR, FTIR, and elemental analysis. The polymerization behavior of Bzf in the presence of methyl p-toluenesulfonate (PTSM) has been studied by FTIR and DSC, and the thermal stability of the cured resin has been evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis. It was found that PTSM is a good promoter that serves to avoid thermal decomposition of the bio-based monomer during the curing process at high temperature. In contrast to the situation with neat Bzf, the presence of PTSM (5 mol % for Bzf) significantly improves the polymerization behaviors, including a decrease in the polymerization temperature from 240 to 174 °C, a shortening of the time required to reach the gel point on heating at 200 °C from 47 to 20 min, and an increase in the char yield of the cured resin from 53 to 62%. Moreover, these observed experimental results on the promoting effect of PTSM are interpreted in terms of several possible mechanistic schemes, which involve a catalytic effect on the dissociation of C O bonds in both the coordination ring-opening reaction and the rearrangement from a phenoxy structure to a phenolic structure. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Researchers are accustomed to utilizing traditional solid-state and sol–gel routes to synthesize Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP). No regulation mechanism is proposed to illustrate the growth process of NVP in solvothermal environment. In current work, uniform spherical particles with positive charge are synthesized by molecular self-assembly of nanosphere micelles using structural guiding agent polyethylene glycol (PEG) and surfactant Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). Nanoflower-shaped NVP sample is successfully prepared in the 100 % methyl alcohol medium, derived from the plate V 2 O 5 (negative charge) combining with the nuclear nanospheres (positive charge) with the induction of electrostatic attraction. Based on the multi-dimensional tests and molecular dynamic calculation, the protective mechanism of polar solution for NVP system is proposed for the first time, that is, methanol solvent system can better protect the morphological features of NVP than water environment to maintain the original special nanoflower morphology. Due to the distinctive and stabilized nanoflower construction, the optimized NVP60 sample can provide more extra active sites for the efficient de-intercalation of Na + and possess a large contacting area with electrolyte, resulting in the facilitated kinetic characteristics and superior electrochemical performance. The optimized NVP60 cathode possesses superior sodium storage property in both half cell and full cell. This work proposes a synergetic strategy combining theory and experiment to design and synthesize the modified NVP-based cathode materials from the molecular bonding aspect, further promoting the development of high performance cathode for SIBs.

The interactions of human serum albumin (HSA) with four cationic gemini surfactants and four single-chain surfactants have been investigated from the measurements of fluorescence spectroscopy, dynamic lights scattering (DLS), zeta potential, and circular dichroism (CD). The fluorescence results show the binding strength of surfactants to HSA, along with the blue shift under the maximum emission wavelength ( λ max ) which is sensitive to the protein conformations. It has been found that the hydrodynamic diameters of the protein aggregates are enlarged and the electrokinetic potentials of them get positive with increasing the concentration of the surfactants. The conformational transformation of the secondary structures of surfactant–HSA aggregates has been confirmed through the quantitative analysis of the CD spectra. The isothermal titration microcalorimetry (ITC) has been employed to further analyze the binding process of single-chain surfactants to HSA. The comprehensive results obtained from various approaches have shown that both hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions are present in the cationic surfactant–HSA systems. Compared with the corresponding single-chain surfactants, the gemini ones have much stronger binding ability to induce the unfolding of HSA. These investigations on the interactions between HSA and surfactants with the altered chain architecture in different concentration regimes can facilitate the application of surfactant-protein systems in pharmaceutical, biotechnology and related fields.

The kinetic of non-isothermal crystallization of Poly (ethylene terephthalate-co-sodium-5-sulfo- iso -phthalate) (PETI) was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Various macrokinetic models namely the Avrami, Tobin, Ozawa, and Ziabicki were used to describe the non-isothermal crystallization process of PETI. Both of the Avrami crystallization rate constant and the Tobin crystallization rate constant were observed to increase with increasing cooling rate. The Avrami model is better than the Tobin model to describe the non-isothermal crystallization process of PETI. The Ozawa crystallization rate K O was found to decrease with increasing cooling rate, while Ziabicki’s kinetic crystallizability parameter G Z was found to increase with increasing cooling rate. The effective energy barrier △E for non-isothermal crystallization process of PETI, analyzed based on the differential iso-conversional method of Friedman, was found to be an increasing function of the relative crystallinity.
