The pyrolysis behaviors of l -tyrosine-based phthalonitrile(TPN) resin were investigated by thermogravimetric-Fourier transform infrared spectrometry-mass spectrometry (TG-FTIR-MS) and Pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). The small molecules produced during pyrolysis process of TPN resin were tracked in real time by TG-FTIR-MS. The larger molecules ( m / z > 40) from fast pyrolysis at 900 °C of the TPN resin using Py-GC/MS were identified. From TG-FTIR-MS and Py-GC/MS results, the production pathways of pyrolysis products such as CO 2 , CO, NH 3 , benzonitrile and phenol were analyzed. The possible pyrolysis mechanism of TPN resin under non-oxidizing gaseous environment was proposed. The results of this study provide the useful information for designing the molecular structure of l -tyrosine-based polymers which possessing high thermal stability.

Multiple mesophases, including the smectic A phase (Sm A), chiral nematic phase (N*), and blue phase (BP I), were seen in a series of non-symmetric bent mesogenic dimers containing a cholesteryl benzoate group. FTIR, 1H-NMR, DSC, POM, UV, and XRD were used to analyze the chemical structure and liquid crystal characteristics of the dimers. The phase transition occurred when the azobenzene structure was treated with UV light, changing the structure of the molecules. There is evidence that when the length of the terminal alkoxy chain is longer than the flexible spacer, it exhibits a smectic A phase as well as a chiral nematic phase; however, when the length of the flexible spacer is shorter than the length of the terminal alkoxy chain, it only exhibits a chiral nematic phase.

A new series of liquid crystalline dimers containing a cholesteryl group were synthesised, exhibiting multiple mesophases including chiral smectic phases (SmC* and SmA*), twist grain boundary phases (TGBA*), and chiral nematic phase (N*). The chemical structure and liquid crystal properties of the dimers were characterised by FTIR, 1H-NMR, DSC, POM and XRD. It was in evidence that the lengths of the terminal tail and the flexible spacer were the decisive factors of the mesophase behaviours.

Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is a cellulose derivative that can be obtained from wood, bamboo, rattan, straw, and other cellulosic materials. CMC can be used to produce biofilms for many purposes, but the properties of these resulting films make them unsuitable for some applications. The effects of three kinds of plant fiber addition on CMC film properties was investigated using CMC derived from eucalyptus bark cellulose. Tensile strength (TS) and elongation at break (EB) of CMC/sodium alginate/glycerol composite films were 26.2 MPa and 7.35%, respectively. Tensile strength of CMC composite films substantially increased, reaching an optimum at 0.50 g of fiber. The enhancement due to industrial hemp hurd fiber on CMC composite films was more obvious. Pretreatment with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and glacial acetic acid (CH3COOH) produced films with a TS of 35.9 MPa and an EB of 1.61%. TS values with pectinase pretreated fiber films was 41.3 MPa and EB was 1.76%. TS of films pretreated with pectinase and hemicellulase was 45.2 MPa and EB was 4.18%. Chemical and enzymatic treatment both improved fiber crystallinity, but film tensile strength was improved to a greater extent by enzymatic treatment. Surface roughness and pyrolysis residue of the film increased after fiber addition, but Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), opacity, and water vapor transmission coefficients were largely unchanged. Adding fiber improved tensile strength of CMC/sodium alginate/glycerol composite films and broadened the application range of CMC composite films without adversely affecting film performance.Keywords:eucalyptus bark;Yunnan pine wood;bamboo culms;industrial hemp hurd;FTIR;XRD;TG;mechanical properties

This study investigated the catalytic pyrolysis of pine sawdust over transition-metal-modified g-C 3 N 4 catalysts (Ni/g-C 3 N 4 , Zn/g-C 3 N 4 , and Co/g-C 3 N 4 ) to enhance phenolic selectivity and elucidate metal–support synergistic effects. Among these catalysts, Co/g-C 3 N 4 exhibited the best performance in enhancing the relative content of phenolic compounds. Compared with non-catalytic pyrolysis at 550 ℃, the phenolic content increased by 24.66%. In addition, the results indicated that a CO 2 atmosphere negatively affected phenolic formation. The temperature-programmed TG-FTIR and evolved-gas analyses revealed that the presence of the Co/g-C 3 N 4 catalyst could promote the formation of CO and limit the generation of CH 4 and C 2 -C 3 hydrocarbons during the catalytic pyrolysis process. The related mechanism analysis showed that the interaction between Co 2 + /Co 3+ species on g-C 3 N 4 and Lewis-basic N sites enabled an interfacial synergistic effect for the selective formation of catechol and methyl-catechol. Furthermore, the exploratory multi-output regression analysis further verified that catalyst type primarily governed phenolic enrichment, whereas temperature mainly influenced syngas formation. Overall, this study provides a deeper understanding of the reaction pathways for the selective generation of phenolic compounds in biomass catalytic pyrolysis, and offers a practical approach for the integration of experimental analysis and data-driven methods.

A limited understanding of the pyrolysis mechanisms hinders the efficient thermochemical conversion and recovery of nylon waste. This study investigates the pyrolysis behavior, volatile evolution, and backbone degradation mechanisms of nylon 6/6 by integrating thermogravimetry-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (TG-FTIR-GC/MS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. According to TG analysis, nylon 6/6 undergoes pyrolysis mainly in the range of 390–515 °C, with a mass loss of 95.86 wt%, and exhibits the most intense degradation at approximately 480 °C. Kinetic analysis using the Coats-Redfern integral and Achar differential methods indicates that nylon 6/6 pyrolysis follows the first-order reaction model with an apparent activation energy of 278 kJ/mol. Online FTIR and offline GC/MS identify the characteristic gaseous products, including CO2, NH3, 1-amino-5-hexene (13.54%), and cyclopentanone (79.64%). Furthermore, DFT calculations elucidate the electrostatic potential (ESP) distribution, Fukui function indices, and bond dissociation energies (BDEs) of the nylon 6/6 model molecule. Results demonstrate that the nucleophilic attack of the terminal amino group and the free radical attack of H· facilitate the cleavage of the amide structure. The generated hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid segments subsequently undergo deamination and cyclization reactions to form 1-amino-5-hexene and cyclopentanone, respectively. By elucidating the backbone degradation mechanisms and product formation pathways during nylon 6/6 pyrolysis, the multi-scale study provides a theoretical basis for the recovery of high-value fuels and chemicals from nylon waste.

Catalytic co-pyrolysis of biomass and hydrogen donors is one of the important ways to improve the quality of bio-oil. The hydrogen transfer pathways in co-pyrolysis are significant yet remain vague. In this study, an isotopic labeling method to label glucose (G) with deuterium (D) atoms was used to trace the hydrogen. The results show the catalysts influence the hydrogen transformation significantly and selectively. The shift of the infrared (IR) peaks proves that the hydrogen atoms in products - phenols, alcohols, carboxylic acids, aldehydes, and olefins contain both hydrogen from polypropylene (PP) and deuterium from G. While the hydrogen in aromatic rings, - CH 3 and - CH 2 all come from polypropylene. Furthermore, the deuterium atoms from G only enter the olefin products with catalyst potassium chloride (KCl) or activated carbon (AC). On the other hand, the oxygenated compound products mainly contain hydrogen atoms from polypropylene with any of the three catalysts. The potassium chloride helps the hydrogen from polypropylene transfer to the products of mainly phenols, aldehydes and alcohols. The AC transfers the hydrogen from polypropylene to the products of carboxylic acid, aldehydes, and phenols. For the ZSM-5, it helps the hydrogen from polypropylene transfer to the products of carboxylic acid and aldehydes. The results of this study are useful for improving the effective hydrogen content of the mixed pyrolysis reaction of biomass.

In-depth understandings of the interactions between NaOCl and foulants (e.g., alginate) at a molecular level can provide a deeper insight into the optimization of chemical cleaning. In this study, two-dimensional Fourier transform infrared correlation spectroscopic (2D-FTIR-COS) analysis was used to probe the hypochlorite oxidation of alginate at normal wastewater treatment operating pH (i.e., 6, 7, and 8). The 2D-FTIR-COS characterization indicated that the groups in alginate were degraded by NaOCl in a similar sequence at all investigated pHs: carboxylate groups (−COOH at pH 6 and 7) > C–O–C bonds, C–O bonds of uronic acids > C–O–C bonds. The results also showed that the presence of hemiacetals, which are formed by uronic acids, can protect alginate chains from oxidation during their initial exposure to NaOCl (30 min) and thus maintain alginate at a constant molecular size. Additionally, the rupture of C–O–C bonds resulting from initial oxidation (30 min) increased the viscosity of alginate solution because of the decreased stiffness of alginate chains and the rise of stronger intermolecular junctions. Long-term exposure to NaOCl (480 min) largely degraded uronic acids and the C–O–C bonds of alginate molecules, leading to decreases in molecular weight and viscosity at pH 6 and 7. However, because of the low degree of oxidation at pH 8, molecular weight and viscosity of alginates were slightly changed after long-term exposure (480 min) to NaOCl. Our results imply that the partial oxidation of alginate during hypochlorite scavenging enhanced its fouling propensity, which could have a potential implication for the implementation of chemical cleaning.

In this work, the pyrolysis characteristics of a low-toxic N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAA) gel polymer was investigated through nonisothermal thermogravimetry (TG) and TG-FTIR analyses. Moreover, the thermal debinding kinetics of gelcast SiAlON ceramic parts was studied through three different kinetic models: the Coats–Redfern (C–R) method, distributed activation energy model (DAEM) and three-Gaussian-DAEM-reaction model (3-DAEM). The rationality and adaptability of the three models to the thermal debinding kinetics study were analyzed by comparison with experimental data. The results showed that three mass loss zones were observed in the temperature ranges of 100–320 °C, 320–520 °C and 520–600 °C, respectively, and the main pyrolysis gas products were CO2, H2O and CH4. The conversion rate (α) curves calculated by 3-DAEM were more consistent with the experimental values than those calculated with the C–R and DAEM methods. The fitting quality parameter (Fit%) was less than 2.63%, and the reaction rate (dα/dT) curves calculated by 3-DAEM were bimodal distribution curves, which were in good agreement with the experimental results. The kinetic parameters (E0,i, k0,i and σi) of the global thermal debinding process calculated by 3-DAEM were 116.00–145.79 kJ mol−1, 1.10 × 109 s−1 and 1.67–43.25 kJ mol−1, respectively. It is anticipated that the study achievements can be used to help predict the thermal debinding behavior and design a reasonable debinding technology for the gelcasting of ceramic parts.

Amyloid fibrillation of α-synuclein is implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease and heavy metal ions such as Fe3+, Zn2+, and Cu2+are known to be involved in the process. In this work, we explored the use of FTIR spectroscopy to look into the modulation effects of Fe3+, Zn2+, and Cu2+on the amyloid fibrillation of α-synuclein. We performed a curve-fitting analysis on the FTIR amide I bands of these α-synuclein fibril systems, namely, the pristine fibril and the fibrils prepared in the presence of Fe3+, Zn2+, and Cu2+. We found that the α-synuclein fibrils under the influences of metal ions all possessed a parallel β-sheet structure, turn structure, and disordered structure, similar to that of pristine α-synuclein fibril. We also observed metal-induced increases in the proportions of the β-sheet secondary structure within the α-synuclein fibrils, with Fe3+being the most effective inducer. We performed second derivative analysis of the side chain carboxylic groups of α-synuclein fibrils and found that the side chain microenvironment of the α-synuclein fibrils was more influenced by Fe3+than Zn2+, and Cu2+. In addition, our atomic force microscopic study revealed that the morphologies of α-synuclein fibrils under the influence of Fe3+was quite different from that of the Zn2+and Cu2+systems. Our FTIR results suggested that the modulation effects of Fe3+, Zn2+, and Cu2+on α-synuclein fibrillation occurred at both secondary and quaternary structural levels. At last, we proposed a mechanistic hypothesis to interpret how metal ions could affect the morphology of α-synuclein amyloid fibril based on the conformational plasticity properties of intrinsically disordered proteins.Keywords:amyloid;FTIR;α-synuclein;fibrillation;metal ion;fibril;secondary structure

The thermal degradation and flame retardancy effect between ionic liquid-modified graphene and hexaphenoxy cyclotriphosphazene on epoxy resin (EP) was investigated using thermogravimetric analysis, differential thermogravimetric analysis, thermogravimetric analysis-infrared spectrometry (TGA-FTIR) and the char residue analysis. The carbonization and synergistic flame-retardant mechanism were obtained. The results showed that, compared with pure EP, the char residue amount of flame-retardant EP was increased, which was dense and continuous with fewer and smaller pores. This was due to the compatibilization of the ionic liquid to the matrix, resulting in the good dispersion of the flame retardant in EP matrix to promote the carbonization efficiency. The TGA-FTIR analysis showed that the PO·and HF free radicals produced by decomposition of flame retardants quenched the flame in the gas phase, and the produced water vapor and NH 3 diluted the concentrations of combustible gas and oxygen to inhibit the progress of combustion.
