The process to obtain biodiesel can be carried out using different raw materials. It is conlmonly performed by transesterification reaction of vegetable oils with methanol and using a homogeneous or heterogeneous catalyst. This work seeks to compare the results produced in transesterification of wasted cooking oil and chicken fat by homogeneous catalysis with NaOH. Due to in each case triglyceride comes from different raw materials, operation conditions differ slightly, which is more evident in the values used for the temperature. For chicken fat was used temperature variations between 35 ℃ and 55 ℃, varying catalyst in percentages between 0.3% and 0.7% with a molar ratio 6:1 in all cases and a reaction time of I h. Likewise, the conditions used in the tmnsesterification process of waste cooking oil were temperature between 50 ℃ and 60 ℃ with a molar ratio 6/1 and 9/1 for alcohol and oil, and catalyst percentage between 0.5% and 0.7% by weight. The yields obtained were between 78% and 94%, or 83% and 95%, for chicken fat and wasted cooking oil, respectively.展开更多

BCl3 provided the highest increase in activity. Interestingly, polymerization results showed no substantial modification of polymer properties, which is consistent with that Lewis acid only promotes the creation of new active sites, after activation by TEA, possessing very similar features to the original ones achievable with conventional precatalysts(i.e. without Lewis-acid treatment).展开更多

Addition of DEAC in the catalyst system caused evident change in catalytic activity and polymer chain structure. The activity decrease in raising DEAC/Ti molar ratio from 0 to 2 is a result of depressed production of isotactic polypropylene chains. The number of active centers in fractions of each polymer sample was determined by quenching the polymerization with 2-thiophenecarbonyl chloride and fractionating the polymer into isotactic, medium- isotactic and atactic fractions. The number of active centers in isotactic fraction ([Ci*]/[Ti]) was lowered by increasing DEAC/Ti molar ratio to 2, but further increasing the DEAC/Ti molar ratio to 20 caused marked increase of [Ci*]/[Ti]. The number of active centers that produce atactic and medium-isotactic PP chains was less influenced by DEAC in the range of DEAC/Ti = 0-10, but increased when the DEAC/Ti molar ratio was further raised to 20. The propagation rate constant of Ci* (k^i) was evidently increased when DEAC/Ti molar ratio was raised from 0 to 5, but further increase in DEAC/Ti ratio caused gradual decrease in kpi. The complicated effect of DEAC on the polymerization kinetics, catalysis behaviors and polymer structure can be reasonably explained by adsorption of DEAC on the central metal of the active centers or on Mg atoms adjacent to the central metal展开更多

Linear increases in molecular weight with conversion and narrow molecular weight distribution were observed for polyacrylamide (PAM) throughout the polymerization. By this method, PAMs with controlled molecular weight (up to 1.0 ~ 106) and narrow molecular weight distribution (Mw/Mn 〈 1.2) were prepared. This study provides an effective method for synthesis of PAMs with narrow molecular weight distribution under environmentally friendly conditions.展开更多

Herein, CO_2 as a carbonoxygen resource was converted to CO_2-polyurea with 1,6-hexanediamine through a two-step polymerization. The reaction parameters such as temperature, pressure and reaction time were examined; and several kinds of catalysts were screened in the absence and presence of NMP solvent. The formed oligomer and the final polyurea were characterized by FT-IR, VT-DRIFTS, NMR, XRD, AFM and their thermal properties were examined by TGA and DSC. It was confirmed that the final polyurea has a high thermal stability; the melting temperature is 269℃ and the decomposition temperature is above 300℃. It is a brittle polymer with a tensile strength of 18.35 MPa at break length of 1.64%. The polyurea has a stronger solvent resistance due to the ordered hydrogen bond in structure. The average molecular weight should be enhanced in the postpolymerization as the appearance, hydrogen bond intensity, crystallinity, melting point and the thermal stability changed largely compared to the oligomer. The present work provides a new kind of polyurea, it is expected to have a wide application in the field of polymer materials.展开更多

The finite elastic non-linear extensibility-Peterlin model (FENE-P) was used as the conformation tensor equation for the viscoelastic polymer solution. Detailed analyses of DNS data were carried out in this paper for the turbulence scaling law and the topological dynamics of FHIT as well as the important turbulent parameters, including turbulent kinetic energy spectra, enstrophy and strain, velocity structure function, small-scale intermittency, etc. A natural and straightforward definition for the drag reduction rate was also proposed for the drag-reducing FHIT based on the decrease degree of the turbulent kinetic energy. It was found that the turbulent energy cascading in the FHIT was greatly modified by the drag-reducing polymer additives. The enstrophy and the strain fields in the FH1T of the polymer solution were remarkably weakened as compared with their Newtonian counterparts. The small-scale vortices and the small-scale intermittency were all inhibited by the viscoelastic effects in the FHIT of the polymer solution. However, the scaling law in a fashion of extended self-similarity for the FHIT of the polymer solution, within the presently simulated range of Weissenberg numbers, had no distinct differences compared with that of the Newtonian fluid case.展开更多

All the complexes can catalyze this polymerization. It was found that the catalytic activities decreased in the order of La〉Ce〉Sm〉Yb. The crystal structure of cerium trisborohydride was determined for the first time by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It is an ionic pair complex of [Ce(BH4)E(THF)5][Ce(BH4)4(THF)2]. The cationic part involves two ηa-BH4 ligands, while the anionic part involves two η3-BH4 groups and two η2-BH4 groups.展开更多

Fin...Large-eddy simulations (LES) based on the temporal approximate deconvolution model were performed for a forced homogeneous isotropic turbulence (FHIT) with polymer additives at moderate Taylor Reynolds number. Finitely extensible nonlinear elastic in the Peterlin approximation model was adopted as the constitutive equation for the filtered conformation tensor of the polymer molecules. The LES results were verified through comparisons with the direct numerical simulation results. Using the LES database of the FHIT in the Newtonian fluid and the polymer solution flows, the polymer effects on some important parameters such as strain, vorticity, drag reduction, and so forth were studied. By extracting the vortex structures and exploring the flatness factor through a high-order correlation function of velocity derivative and wavelet analysis, it can be found that the small-scale vortex structures and small-scale intermittency in the FHIT are all inhibited due to the existence of the polymers. The extended self-similarity scaling law in the polymer solution flow shows no apparent difference from that in the Newtonian fluid flow at the currently simulated ranges of Reynolds and Weissenberg numbers.展开更多

Recently, there has been widely increasing interest in reducing the high costs of catalyst separation and post-polymerization purification in ATRP. In this work, trolamine was found to significantly enhance the catalytical performance of CuBr]N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl) ethyle- nediamine (CuBr/TPEN) and CuBr/tris[2-(dimethylamino) ethylamine] (CuBr/MesTREN). With the addition of 25-fold molar amount of trolamine relative to CuBr, the catalyst loadings of CuBr/TPEN and CuBr/Me6TREN were dramatically reduced from a catalyst-to-initiator ratio of 1 to 0.01 and 0.05, respectively. The polymerizations of methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate and styrene still showed first-order kinetics in the presence of trolamine and produced poly(methyl acrylate), poly(methyl methacrylate) and polystyrene with molecular weights close to theoretical values and low polydispersities. These results indicate that trolamine is a highly effective and versatile promoter for ATRP and is promising for potential industrial application.展开更多

文摘Photoredox catalysis has made significant advances in stateof-the-art chemical synthesis,drawing energy from inexhaustible light and enabling various organic transformations to occur under mild reaction conditions.Over the past few years,a variety of homogeneous and heterogeneous photocatalysts have been applied in the photoredox catalysis.Heterogeneous photoredox catalysis offers advantages such as easy separation and superior recyclability compared to homogeneous counterparts,although homogenous catalysts are usually associated with higher activities and selectivity.From a practical perspective,an optimal photoredox catalytic system would integrate the advantages of both homogeneous and heterogeneous cases.

文摘Single-atom catalysis,the catalysis by single-atom catalysts(SACs),has attracted considerable attention in recent years as a new frontier in the heterogeneous catalysis field.SACs have the advantages of both homogeneous catalysts(isolated active sites)and heterogeneous catalysts(stable and easy to separate),and are thus predicted to be able to bridge the homo-and heterogeneous catalysis.This prediction was first experimentally demonstrated in 2016.In this mini-review,we summarize the few homogeneous catalysis progresses reported recently where SACs have exhibited promising application:a)Rh/ZnO and Rh/CoO SAC have been used successfully in hydroformylation of olefin of which the activity are comparable to the homogeneous Wilkinson’s catalyst;b)a Pt/Al2O3 SAC has shown excellent performance in hydrosilylation reaction;and c)M-N-C SACs(M=Fe,Co etc.)have been applied in the activation of C–H bonds.All of these examples suggest that fabrication of suitable SACs could provide a new avenue for the heterogenization of homogeneous catalysts.These pioneering works shed new light on the recognition of single-atom catalysis in bridging the homo-and heterogeneous catalysis.
文摘Ziegler-Natta precatalysts were synthetized from Lewis-base-modified-MgCl2 supports and treated by various Lewis acids,prior to activation by triethylaluminum, in order to increase their activity in ethylene polymerization. BCl3 provided the highest increase in activity. Interestingly, polymerization results showed no substantial modification of polymer properties, which is consistent with that Lewis acid only promotes the creation of new active sites, after activation by TEA, possessing very similar features to the original ones achievable with conventional precatalysts(i.e. without Lewis-acid treatment).

文摘In this article, the effect of diethylaluminum chloride (DEAC) in propylene polymerization with MgC12-supported Ziegler-Natta catalyst was studied. Addition of DEAC in the catalyst system caused evident change in catalytic activity and polymer chain structure. The activity decrease in raising DEAC/Ti molar ratio from 0 to 2 is a result of depressed production of isotactic polypropylene chains. The number of active centers in fractions of each polymer sample was determined by quenching the polymerization with 2-thiophenecarbonyl chloride and fractionating the polymer into isotactic, medium- isotactic and atactic fractions. The number of active centers in isotactic fraction ([Ci*]/[Ti]) was lowered by increasing DEAC/Ti molar ratio to 2, but further increasing the DEAC/Ti molar ratio to 20 caused marked increase of [Ci*]/[Ti]. The number of active centers that produce atactic and medium-isotactic PP chains was less influenced by DEAC in the range of DEAC/Ti = 0-10, but increased when the DEAC/Ti molar ratio was further raised to 20. The propagation rate constant of Ci* (k^i) was evidently increased when DEAC/Ti molar ratio was raised from 0 to 5, but further increase in DEAC/Ti ratio caused gradual decrease in kpi. The complicated effect of DEAC on the polymerization kinetics, catalysis behaviors and polymer structure can be reasonably explained by adsorption of DEAC on the central metal of the active centers or on Mg atoms adjacent to the central metal
文摘Controlled and homogeneous flee-radical polymerization of acrylamide (AM) in aqueous phase was realized by using S,S'-bis(α, α'-dimethyl-α"-acetic acid)-trithiocarbonate as a reversible addition-fragmentation transfer (RAFT) agent. Linear increases in molecular weight with conversion and narrow molecular weight distribution were observed for polyacrylamide (PAM) throughout the polymerization. By this method, PAMs with controlled molecular weight (up to 1.0 ~ 106) and narrow molecular weight distribution (Mw/Mn 〈 1.2) were prepared. This study provides an effective method for synthesis of PAMs with narrow molecular weight distribution under environmentally friendly conditions.

文摘Activation and transformation of CO_2 is one of the important issues in the field of green and sustainable chemistry. Herein, CO_2 as a carbonoxygen resource was converted to CO_2-polyurea with 1,6-hexanediamine through a two-step polymerization. The reaction parameters such as temperature, pressure and reaction time were examined; and several kinds of catalysts were screened in the absence and presence of NMP solvent. The formed oligomer and the final polyurea were characterized by FT-IR, VT-DRIFTS, NMR, XRD, AFM and their thermal properties were examined by TGA and DSC. It was confirmed that the final polyurea has a high thermal stability; the melting temperature is 269℃ and the decomposition temperature is above 300℃. It is a brittle polymer with a tensile strength of 18.35 MPa at break length of 1.64%. The polyurea has a stronger solvent resistance due to the ordered hydrogen bond in structure. The average molecular weight should be enhanced in the postpolymerization as the appearance, hydrogen bond intensity, crystallinity, melting point and the thermal stability changed largely compared to the oligomer. The present work provides a new kind of polyurea, it is expected to have a wide application in the field of polymer materials.

文摘Direct numerical simulations (DNS) were performed for the forced homogeneous isotropic turbulence (FHIT) with/without polymer additives in order to elaborate the characteristics of the turbulent energy cascading influenced by drag-reducing effects. The finite elastic non-linear extensibility-Peterlin model (FENE-P) was used as the conformation tensor equation for the viscoelastic polymer solution. Detailed analyses of DNS data were carried out in this paper for the turbulence scaling law and the topological dynamics of FHIT as well as the important turbulent parameters, including turbulent kinetic energy spectra, enstrophy and strain, velocity structure function, small-scale intermittency, etc. A natural and straightforward definition for the drag reduction rate was also proposed for the drag-reducing FHIT based on the decrease degree of the turbulent kinetic energy. It was found that the turbulent energy cascading in the FHIT was greatly modified by the drag-reducing polymer additives. The enstrophy and the strain fields in the FH1T of the polymer solution were remarkably weakened as compared with their Newtonian counterparts. The small-scale vortices and the small-scale intermittency were all inhibited by the viscoelastic effects in the FHIT of the polymer solution. However, the scaling law in a fashion of extended self-similarity for the FHIT of the polymer solution, within the presently simulated range of Weissenberg numbers, had no distinct differences compared with that of the Newtonian fluid case.

文摘Complexes of lanthanide trisborohydrides, formally Ln(BH4)3(THF), (Ln=La, Ce, Sm, Yb), were synthesized and their catalytic activity for polymerization of ε-caprolactone was studied. All the complexes can catalyze this polymerization. It was found that the catalytic activities decreased in the order of La〉Ce〉Sm〉Yb. The crystal structure of cerium trisborohydride was determined for the first time by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It is an ionic pair complex of [Ce(BH4)E(THF)5][Ce(BH4)4(THF)2]. The cationic part involves two ηa-BH4 ligands, while the anionic part involves two η3-BH4 groups and two η2-BH4 groups.

文摘Large-eddy simulations (LES) based on the temporal approximate deconvolution model were performed for a forced homogeneous isotropic turbulence (FHIT) with polymer additives at moderate Taylor Reynolds number. Finitely extensible nonlinear elastic in the Peterlin approximation model was adopted as the constitutive equation for the filtered conformation tensor of the polymer molecules. The LES results were verified through comparisons with the direct numerical simulation results. Using the LES database of the FHIT in the Newtonian fluid and the polymer solution flows, the polymer effects on some important parameters such as strain, vorticity, drag reduction, and so forth were studied. By extracting the vortex structures and exploring the flatness factor through a high-order correlation function of velocity derivative and wavelet analysis, it can be found that the small-scale vortex structures and small-scale intermittency in the FHIT are all inhibited due to the existence of the polymers. The extended self-similarity scaling law in the polymer solution flow shows no apparent difference from that in the Newtonian fluid flow at the currently simulated ranges of Reynolds and Weissenberg numbers.

文摘Transition metal-mediated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is a "living"Jcontrolled radical polymerization. Recently, there has been widely increasing interest in reducing the high costs of catalyst separation and post-polymerization purification in ATRP. In this work, trolamine was found to significantly enhance the catalytical performance of CuBr]N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl) ethyle- nediamine (CuBr/TPEN) and CuBr/tris[2-(dimethylamino) ethylamine] (CuBr/MesTREN). With the addition of 25-fold molar amount of trolamine relative to CuBr, the catalyst loadings of CuBr/TPEN and CuBr/Me6TREN were dramatically reduced from a catalyst-to-initiator ratio of 1 to 0.01 and 0.05, respectively. The polymerizations of methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate and styrene still showed first-order kinetics in the presence of trolamine and produced poly(methyl acrylate), poly(methyl methacrylate) and polystyrene with molecular weights close to theoretical values and low polydispersities. These results indicate that trolamine is a highly effective and versatile promoter for ATRP and is promising for potential industrial application.
