As one of the nonenzymatic cell-harvesting technologies, a thermal-responsive surface based on poly(2-oxazoline)s has achieved initial success in supporting the adhesion and thermal-induced detachment of animal cells. However, because of the laborious preparation procedure, this technique was only limited to research purposes. In this work, through using poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA) as the anchor layer, poly(2-propyl-2-oxazoline)s (PPOx) were grafted onto glass wafers through a facile two-step coating and annealing procedure for nonenzymatic cell harvesting. In the first step, the piranha solution-activated glass wafers were immersed into the chloroform solution of PGMA and then annealed for a given period of time to immobilize PGMA onto the glass wafers through the bonding between epoxy groups and hydroxyl groups. In the second step, the PGMA-coated glass wafers were further immersed into the chloroform solution of carboxyl-functionalized PPOx. After annealing, PPOx were immobilized onto the PGMA layer through the bonding between carboxyl groups and the residual epoxy groups. Atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and ellipsometry were used to characterize the modified glass wafers. The results of cytocompatibility evaluation showed that the PPOx-coated glass wafers were almost nontoxic and were able to support the adhesion and proliferation of L929 cells well. By lowering the temperature to 8 °C, L929 and Vero cells were successfully detached from the PPOx-coated glass wafers without any enzymatic treatment. Further cultivation has demonstrated that the cooling procedure had little effect on cell viability, and the cells still retained good viability after harvesting.

Reticular 2-bromo-2-methylpropionic acid (BMPA) modified Fe3O4 nanoparticle aggregates with novel acoustic properties, namely the photoexcited audible sound (PEAS) effect, were prepared by a laser-induced irradiation method. Their morphology was observed by Lorentz transmission electron microscopy. Their chemical structure, crystal composition, and magnetic properties were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and a magnetic property measurement instrument, respectively. It is found that the nanoparticle aggregates appeared reticular, with the size of the BMPA modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles being 5.5 ± 0.4 nm. The saturation magnetization values of the BMPA modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles and associated aggregates were 59.99 and 63.51 emu g−1, respectively. The reticular BMPA modified nanoparticle aggregates can produce strong PEAS signals under very weak laser irradiation with great stability and repeatability. The emitted PEAS signals possessed strong specificity, suitable decay time and a large amount of information under a very weak laser power and can be detected by the human ear without any special detection equipment. Subsequently, a heat transfer model was constructed for the simulation of the possible mechanism of the PEAS effect using COMSOL software. The simulation results showed that the aggregates have a fast heat transfer rate with the temperature increasing to 480 K in only 0.25 s and 600 K in 5 s, respectively, meeting the requirements of the vapor explosion mechanism. Therefore, we realized that the possible mechanism of the PEAS effect of the reticular BMPA modified Fe3O4 nanoparticle aggregates is laser-induced fast heat transfer and vapor explosion in situ, resulting in the observed audible sound phenomenon. This novel PEAS effect has potential for application in materials science, biomedical engineering and other fields.

Liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for water + 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol + (isopropyl ether or 4-methylpentan-2-ol or p-xylene or ethyl acetate) ternary systems was measured at 308.2 K under 101.3 kPa. Distribution coefficients and separation factors were obtained and applied to evaluate the extraction capacity of selected solvents. Furthermore, the experimental LLE data were successfully correlated by the nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) and universal quasi-chemical (UNIQUAC) models, which showed a root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) of less than 0.78% for all systems.

2-Methyl-2-cyclopentenone (MCP) is the main by-product of the newly developed heterogeneous catalysis process for producing crotonaldehyde, which serves as an important intermediate for drug synthesis. However, how to recover and purify MCP from the product mixture is not known. To decipher this, a computer-aided process based on the measured phase-equilibrium data was developed. The improved Rose–Williams equilibrium kettle was used to measure the vapor–liquid equilibrium data for MCP–crotonaldehyde and MCP–water. Surprisingly, MCP and water formed a minimum azeotrope, which aided its own recovery from its dilute solution. The mole fraction of MCP in the azeotrope was 9.1%, the mole fraction of water was 90.9%, and the azeotropic temperature was 96.8 °C. Equilibrium data from the two binary systems were correlated using the Wilson and NRTL activity coefficient models. The NRTL-RK model was selected to simulate the process for recovering and purifying MCP. A two-column process was developed and optimized in this study, and the aim of effectively utilizing the by-product MCP was achieved with this process.

In this work, the comb-like poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) copolymer, poly(2-aminoethyl methacrylate-random-poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PMOXA-r-AEMA, PMA) is synthesized, and the CuSO4/H2O2-triggered dopamine/PMA co-deposition process is investigated. Ellipsometry, water contact angle (WCA), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are used to characterize the thickness, hydrophilicity, and surface composition of PMA-based coatings. PMA is facilely anchored to substrates within 60 min with the assistance of dopamine/polydopamine triggered by CuSO4/H2O2, and the coating thickness can achieve about 13 nm. Anti-protein adsorption and anti-blood platelet adhesion measurements are also studied to verify their antifouling properties. The adsorption capacity of FITC-BSA can be reduced to 5% of the original surface, and PMA-based coatings present excellent protein-resistant properties (∼95% reduction relative to gold surface) according to surface plasmon resonance (SPR) measurement, and it can resist adhesion of almost all blood platelets. Moreover, it is applied to a capillary inner wall for surface modification. An alkaline protein mixture and egg white proteins are successfully separated, and present excellent stability. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of migration time is lower than 0.71%. The practicability of this promising PMA-based coatings with this preparation strategy can be used for further proteomics analysis.

Development of surfaces with antifouling properties is of great interest in biomedical applications. In this paper, the research was aimed at rapid preparation of poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-based antifouling coating. We designed and synthesized a set of well-defined multiarm star copolymers hyperbranched poly(ethylenimine)-graft-poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PEI-g-PMOXA) with different PMOXA grafting ratios and chain lengths. The cytotoxicity of the polymer was tested and the PMOXA-based films were successfully deposited rapidly onto substrates via a simple one-step dopamine-assisted codeposition method. The effect of polymer architecture (linear PMOXA with different molecular weights, star PMOXA with different PMOXA grafting ratios and arm lengths) on deposited films with respect to their deposition kinetics, surface composition, wettability, morphology, cytotoxicity, and antifouling properties was investigated systematically. The antifouling properties of PMOXA-based films were found to be dependent on the surface PMOXA chain densities, which were controlled by the PMOXA grafting ratios and chain lengths. Moreover, the star PMOXA structures gave the surfaces with higher PMOXA chain densities and enhanced antifouling properties compared to the linear ones. Among the star copolymers, PEI-g(70)-PMOXA(5K)/polydopamine and PEI-g(70)-PMOXA(7K)/polydopamine deposited films showed the highest resistance to protein adsorption (96–99% relative to the bare gold surface) and cell attachment (97–99% relative to the bare glass surface), as well as complete inhibition against platelet adhesion. At last, the stability test results showed that the PMOXA-based film exhibited superior stability in long-term applications than the poly(ethylene glycol)-based film.

With low bioaccessbility, persistence of the undissolved organic pollutants in soil and sediments poses threat to health of the resident. Although ubiquitous black carbon catalyzes a wide range of biogeochemical reactions in nature, its role in biotransformation of the compounds in non-aqueous phase like 2, 2′-nitrobiphenyl remains unclear. Reduction rate constants of 2, 2′-dinitrobiphenyl by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 increased from 0.0044 h −1 by 7-fold to 0.035 h −1 in the presence of black carbons produced at pyrolysis temperature of 250–900 °C. Accordingly, electrical conductivity of black carbon was enhanced from 0 to 5.56 S∙cm −1 . The reactivity of black carbon for catalyzing the biotransformation positively correlated with its electrical conductivity ( R 2 > 0.89), which was strongly associated with conductive graphitic clusters in it. The surface oxygenated groups in black carbon were likely not involved in the bioreduction. This work attaches importance to role of the ubiquitous black carbon in natural biotransformation of the undissolved pollutants, and elucidates new mechanism for the biotransformation.

An eco-friendly superabsorbent polymer (SAP) was prepared by grafting 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid onto microcrystalline cellulose in lithium chloride/ N, N -dimethylacetamide system. The synthesized SAP (cellulose- g -PAMPS) was characterized by FTIR, TGA , SEM, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR and XRD. The water absorption equilibrium of cellulose- g -PAMPS could be achieved within 10 min in distilled water. Moreover, the maximum water absorption capacities of cellulose- g -PAMPS in distilled water, 0.9 wt% NaCl solution and 3.2 wt% Na 2 CO 3 solution were 648.9, 298.4 and 207.3 g·g −1 , respectively. The water absorption behavior of cellulose- g -PAMPS was interpreted by the pseudo-second-order model. Furthermore, cellulose- g -PAMPS could be used in some extreme conditions due to its high acid and alkali resistance. The water retention rate of cellulose- g -PAMPS could be maintained above 90 % at 25 °C for 6 h. As a consequence, the synthesized SAP can be applied to increase the plant growth and survival time under drought conditions, even under saline alkali conditions.

Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for 2-methylpyridine + 2-vinylpyridine binary systems have been measured using a dynamic circulation device with the pressure points 1.9 kPa, 4.0 kPa, and 5.3 kPa at temperature in the range from 302.8 to 348.5 K. The VLE data passed the thermodynamic consistency test by using L–W method, R–K method and Fredenslund method. The NRTL, Wilson and UNIQUAC models were used to fit the data and binary interaction parameters were obtained for the three models. For these models, the results showed that the calculated values of the model were in good agreement with the experimental values and could, thereby, be used for the design and optimization of distillation.

To promote the performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs), its theoretical power conversion efficiency (PCE) and high stability, elaborative defect passivation, and interfacial engineering at the molecular level are required to regulate the optoelectric properties and charge transporting process at the perovskite/hole transport layer (HTL) interfaces. Herein, we introduce for the first time a multifunctional dipole polymer poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEOz) between the perovskite and Spiro-OMeTAD HTL in planar n-i-p PSCs, which advances the PSCs toward both high efficiency and excellent stability by stimulating three beneficial effects. First, the ether–oxygen unshared electron pairs in PEOz chemically react with unsaturated Pb2+on the perovskite surfaces by forming a strong Pb–O bond, which effectively reduces the uncoordinated defects on the perovskite surfaces and enhances the absorption ability of the resulting PSCs. Second, the dipole induced by PEOz at the perovskite/HTL interface can decrease the HOMO and LUMO level of Spiro-OMeTAD and optimize the band alignment between these layers, thereby suppressing the interfacial recombination and accelerating the hole transport/extraction ability in the cell. Third, the hygroscopic PEOz thin film can protect perovskite film from water erosion by absorbing the water molecules before perovskite does. Finally, the PEOz-modified PSC exhibits an optimized PCE of 21.86%, with a high short-circuit current density (Jsc) of 24.88 mA/cm2, a fill factor (FF) of 0.79, and an open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 1.11 V. The unencapsulated devices also deliver excellent operation stability over 300 h in an ambient atmosphere with a humidity of 30~40% and more than 10 h under thermal stress.

A series of poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)-poly(L-lactide) (PEOz-PLA) diblock copolymers were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization of l -lactide using a monohydroxy terminated PEOz-OH macro-initiator in the presence of stannous octoate as catalyst. The resulting diblock copolymers were characterized by 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance and gel permeation chromatography . Self-assembled micelles were prepared using the co-solvent evaporation method in water and in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at pH 7.4, 6.5 and 5.0. The resulting micelles exhibit different morphologies, such as spherical micelles and worm-like micelles depending on the hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance. Spherical micelles were exclusively observed for PEOz-PLA copolymers with short PLA blocks, whereas co-existence of worm-like and spherical micelles was observed for copolymers with long PLA blocks. The micelle size increases with decreasing pH due to the electrostatic repulsion between PEOz chains resulting from ionization of the tertiary amide groups along PEOz chains. A hydrophobic anti-tumor drug, paclitaxel , was entrapped in PEOz-PLA micelles. High loading efficiency up to 86.7% was obtained for copolymers with long PLA blocks. Drug release was performed in PBS at different pH values. During the 30-day release period, faster release was obtained for copolymers with shorter PLA blocks than for copolymers with longer PLA blocks, at acidic pH than at pH 7.4. It is thus concluded that pH-responsive PEOz-PLA copolymer micellss could be promising as carrier of anti-tumor drugs.
