The modeling procedure was performed in two stages: first, modeling of polymer/polymer interface region comprising Janus nanoparticles and second, modeling of the entire systems as a function of the variation of the blend morphology.In the first stage, the modeling procedure was performed based on the development of the model proposed by Ji et al. and in the second stage, the fundamental of Kolarik's model was used in order to propose a developed and more practical model. It was shown that Janus nanoparticles may form dual polymer/particle interphase at polymer/polymer interface which can drastically affect the final mechanical properties of the system. Comparing the results of tensile tests imposed on different prepared samples with the predictions of the model proved its accuracy and reliability(error < 9%).展开更多

This blend exhibited a lower critical solution temperature behavior. Below 120 ℃, DSC results showed each blend with different PVC contents exhibited only a single glass transition temperature which increased with PVC content, indicating that PVC and PnBMA were miscible. After PVC/PnBMA laminates were annealed at different temperature for different time, a smooth cross-section across interface was prepared by ultramicrotoming. Combined with topography and phase images of tapping mode AFM, the relative concentration profile, interface width and the relationship between interface width and annealing time could be obtained. In a regime of rubbery/rubbery interdiffusion, the diffusion obeyed a typical Fickian Case-I behavior where the interface width was proportional to the square root of annealing time. The mutual diffusion coefficient was in good agreement with that obtained from DSC and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy. However, in the regime of glassy/rubbery interdiffusion, the diffusion followed a typical Case-II behavior where the interface width was proportional to annealing time. These results imply that AFM is a reliable and powerful tool for the investigation of polymer/polymer interdiffusion at a level of polymer chain size.展开更多

文摘Four distinct coordination polymers(CPs)were successfully synthesized by altering solvent types and adjusting ligand concentrations,and their crystal structures were investigated.[Co(L)(FDCA)(H_(2)O)_(2)]·0.5H_(2)O(1)was synthesized as a 2D structure using Coas the metal source,methanol‑water(4∶6,V/V)as the solvent,and specific concentrations of 2,5‑furandicarboxylic acid(H_(2)FDCA)and 1,3,5‑triimidazole benzene(L).Adjusting to pure water and lowering the concentration of L yielded the 1D chain structure of[Co(HL)2(H_(2)O)_(2)](FDCA)_(2)·6H_(2)O(2).Using Cu(Ⅱ)as the metal source,methanol/water(9∶1,V/V)as the solvent,and specific concentrations of L and H2FDCA,the 1D chain structure of[Cu(L)(FDCA)(H_(2)O)]·2H_(2)O(3)was synthesized.Upon increasing the concentrations of L and H2FDCA,and switching the solvent to pure water,the 1D chain structure of[Cu(HL)_(2)(H_(2)O)_(2)](FDCA)_(2)·6H_(2)O(4)was obtained.This shows that changing the solvent and ligand concentrations can affect the structural changes of CPs.In addition,the solid‑state photoluminescence of CPs 1‑4 at room temperature was studied,and their morphological changes were observed via scanning electron microscopy.Density functional theory calculations revealed that the negative charge concentrates on the O and N atoms of the ligand,facilitating ligand‑metal ion coordination.CCDC:2403934,1;2403935,2;2403936,3;2403938,4.

文摘Polymer-modified bentonite(PMB)is much more effective at containing chemically aggressive liquids than conventional bentonite.The PMB manufacturing process typically utilizes natural,high-quality sodium bentonite(NaB)owing to its excellent hydrophilicity and swelling capacity.However,calcium bentonite(CaB),which is much more abundant worldwide,is rarely used for containment applications owing to its poor hydrophilicity.This study proposed a polymerization method that transforms sodium-activated calcium bentonite(NCB)into PMB to achieve low hydraulic conductivity(k)to aggressive liquids.The mechanism for its low k was revealed through characterization techniques and analyses(e.g.X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET)).The results showed that the PMB had a small amount of polymer elution(indicating better interface stability)and thus exhibited excellent barrier properties under chemically aggressive conditions,with the k of<10^(-11) m/s for 0.6 mol/L NaCl solution,which is four orders of magnitude lower than that of the NCB(k=3×10^(-7) m/s).Various microscopic analyses indicated that the selected monomers were successfully polymerized,and intercalated into and grafted onto the montmorillonite layers of bentonite.The formed polymer network increased the swelling capability of PMB granules,decreased the pore size,and created narrow and tortuous flow pathways leading to a very low k to aggressive liquids.

文摘Organic pollutants,a pivotal factor in water pollution,have persistently menaced the aquatic ecosystem,as well as the sustainable development of human health,economy,and society.Consequently,there is an urgent need for advanced techniques to efficiently eliminate organic micropollutants from water.Here,we present the synthesis of three nonporous cavitand-crosslinked polymers capable of adsorbing diverse organic pollutants from aqueous solutions.These polymeric adsorbents exhibit outstanding adsorptive performance towards the tested micropollutants,characterized by high apparent adsorption rate constants(kobs)and maximum adsorption capacities(qmax,e).Notably,Compound NCCP-1 demonstrated a remarkable qmax,e of 459 mg/g for bisphenol A(BPA),ranking among the highest values reported for organic polymer adsorbents.In-depth investigation of the adsorption mechanism of the nonporous polymer revealed that it involves the recognition of pollutants by the deep cavities of the cavitand moieties and the interstitial spaces between them,primarily mediated by the hydrophobic effect.Furthermore,NCCP-1 was applied in situ water purification simulations and was proven to maintain its removal efficiency over more than four cycles,highlighting its potential for practical applications in water treatment.

文摘Liver is a vital organ in the human body and plays a central role in the metabolism and detoxification of endotoxins and exotoxins.Bilirubin is an endotoxin derived from hemoglobin(Hb).Removing excess bilirubin in the blood is crucial for the treatment of liver diseases.Hemoperfusion,which relies on adsorbents to efficiently adsorb toxins,is a widely applied procedure for the removal of blood toxins.To broaden and improve the range and performance of hemoperfusion adsorbents,we synthesized cationic hyper crosslinked polymers(HCPs)with strong affinity for bilirubin.This material exhibited outstanding adsorption performance,with a maximum adsorption capacity of 934 mg/g and a removal efficiency of 96%.Further investigation confirmed their excellent selectivity,reusability,and biocompatibility.These findings expand the potential applications of HCPs and provide insight into strategies for constructing promising hemoperfusion adsorbent materials.

文摘With the global push for energy conservation and the rapid development of low-power,flexible and wearable optical displays,the demand for electrochromic technology has surged.Gel polymer electrolytes(GPEs),a crucial component of electrochromic devices(ECDs),show great promise in applications.This is attributed to their efficient ion-transport capabilities,excellent mechanical properties and strong adhesion.All of these characteristics are conducive to enhancing the safety of the devices,streamlining the packaging process,significantly improving the electrochromic performance of ECDs and boosting their commercial application potential.This review provides a comprehensive overview of GPEs for ECDs,focusing on their basic designs,functional modifications and practical applications.Firstly,this review outlines the fundamental design of GPEs for ECDs,encompassing key performance index,classification,gelation mechanism and preparation methods.Building on this foundation,it provides an in-depth discussion of functionalized GPEs developed to enhance device performance or expand functionality,including electrochromic,temperature-responsive,photo-responsive and stretchable self-healing GPE.Furthermore,the integration of GPEs into various ECD applications,including smart windows,displays,energy storage devices and wearable electronic,are summarized to highlight the advantages that the design of GPEs brings to the practical application of ECDs.Finally,based on the summary of GPEs employed for ECDs,the challenges and development expectations in this direction were indicated.

文摘Succinonitrile(SN)-based polymer plastic crystal electrolytes(PPCEs)are regarded as promising candidates for lithium metal batteries but suffer from serious side reactions with Li metal.Herein,we propose a multi-dimensional optimization strategy to alleviate the side reactions between SN and Li metal,and develop a highly stable poly-vinylethylene carbonate-based PPCE(PPCE-VEC).Moreover,we identify the intrinsic factors of multi-dimensional polymer structures on the electrolyte stability by three typical classes of polyesters.The PPCE-VEC constructed by in situ polymerization exhibits much better stability than poly-vinylene carbonate-based PPCE(PPCE-VCA)and poly-trifluoroethyl acrylate-based PPCE(PPCE-TFA),which is verified by its fewer SN-decomposition species in X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)and outstanding full cell performance.The PPCE-VEC-enabled LiNi_(0.6)Co_(0.2)Mn_(0.2)O_(2)full cell achieve 73.7%capacity retention after 1400 cycles,which outperforms PPCE-VCA-and PPCE-TFA-enabled full cells(61.9%and 46.9%).Spectral analysis and theoretical calculation reveal that the high solvation ability of the carbonyl site,flexible polymer chain,and homogeneous electrolyte phase of PPCE-VEC are favorable to maximizing competition coordination with Li^(+)to weaken the Li^(+)–SN binding and shape an anion-rich solvation structure.This optimized polymer-involved Li^(+)solvation enhances SN stability and facilitates the formation of B/F enriched solid-electrolyte interphase(SEI),thus significantly improving PPCE stability.

文摘To precisely control intrachain π-electron delocalization and interchain interaction simultaneously is the prerequisite to obtain stable and efficient deep-blue light-emitting p-n polymer semiconductors for the polymer light-emitting diodes(PLEDs).Herein,we introduced the steric carbazole-fluorene nanogrid into light-emitting diphenyl sulfone-based p-n polymer semiconductors(PG and PDG) via metal-free C-N coupling polymerization for the fabrication of deep-blue PLEDs.The steric,rigid and twisted configuration between nanogrid and diphenyl sulfone in PG and PDG present the unique characteristic of large steric hindrance interaction to suppress interchain aggregation in solid state.Due to the different length of electron-deficient diphenyl sulfone monomers,PG showed a deep-blue emission with a maximum peak at 428 nm but red-shifted to 480 nm for the PDG films.Interestingly,similar deep-blue emission behavior of PG in diluted non-polar solution and films suggested the extremely weak interchain aggregation.Finally,PLEDs based on PG are fabricated with a stable deep-blue emission of CIE(0.15,0.10),and corresponding EL spectral profile is also completely identical to PL ones of diluted solution,revealed the intrachain emission without obvious interchain excited state,confirmed effectiveness of the steric hindrance functionalization of nanogrid in p-n polymer semiconductor for deep-blue light-emitting organic optoelectronics.

文摘Thermoelectric(TE)materials,being capable of converting waste heat into electricity,are pivotal for sustainable energy solutions.Among emerging TE materials,organic TE materials,particularly conjugated polymers,are gaining prominence due to their unique combination of mechanical flexibility,environmental compatibility,and solution-processable fabrication.A notable candidate in this field is poly(2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno[3,2-b]thiophene)(PBTTT),a liquid-crystalline conjugated polymer,with high charge carrier mobility and adaptability to melt-processing techniques.Recent advancements have propelled PBTTT’s figure of merit from below 0.1 to a remarkable 1.28 at 368 K,showcasing its potential for practical applications.This review systematically examines strategies to enhance PBTTT’s TE performance through doping(solution,vapor,and anion exchange doping),composite engineering,and aggregation state controlling.Recent key breakthroughs include ion exchange doping for stable charge modulation,multi-heterojunction architectures reducing thermal conductivity,and proton-coupled electron transfer doping for precise Fermi-level tuning.Despite great progress,challenges still persist in enhancing TE conversion efficiency,balancing or decoupling electrical conductivity,Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity,and leveraging melt-processing scalability of PBTTT.By bridging fundamental insights with applied research,this work provides a roadmap for advancing PBTTT-based TE materials toward efficient energy harvesting and wearable electronics.

文摘Antibiotics,as an emerging pollutant due to their extensive use and difficulty in biodegradation,can cause harm to health through bioaccumulation.To address this,various photocatalysts have been developed for rapid antibiotic removal.However,their low concentrations limit mass transfer efficiency,resulting in suboptimal performance.Adsorption is crucial for enhancing photocatalytic efficiency.In this study,a series of binary heterojunction catalysts(x%BWO@STHP)were synthesized,consisting of Bi_(2)WO_(6)(BWO)grafted with sulfonated triptycene-based hypercrosslinked polymer(STHP).The high specific surface area of STHP,combined withπ-πconjugation and ionic interactions with antibiotics,significantly enhances adsorption capacity.This facilitates effective contact between low-concentration pollutants in aqueous solutions and the active sites of the catalyst.The formation of a Z-scheme heterojunction between BWO and STHP facilitates photogenerated charge separation,and further significantly improves photocatalytic degradation performance.Specifically,the 20%BWO@STHP catalyst achieved rapid adsorption equilibrium for oxytetracycline(OTC),doxycycline(DOX),and tetracycline(TC)within 2 min and completely degraded them after 15 min of irradiation.Compared to pristine BWO,the photocatalytic reaction rate constants are significantly increased,being 9.69 times higher for OTC and 13.45 times higher for DOX.The catalyst exhibits excellent reusability and holds promising potential for practical applications.

文摘Star-shaped six-arm polymers with hexaaza[2_(6)]orthoparacyclophane core and arms of block copolymers of poly-2-ethyl-5,6-dihydrooxazine with poly-2-isopropyl-5,6-dihydrooxazine were synthesized successfully using cationic ring-opening polymerization.The ratio of blocks,the order of their attachment to the core,and arm length were varied.Conformation of synthesized stars was determined by methods of molecular hydrodynamics and optics.It has been shown that star-shaped molecules were characterized by high intramolecular density,and the arm folding increased with their lengthening.The influence of the structure of block copolymers and their molar mass on the critical micelle concentration has been established.Complexes of synthesized star-shaped block copolymers with curcumin were obtained and the efficient binding of curcumin to polymer molecules was demonstrated.The behavior of the aqueous solutions of the prepared polymer stars and their complexes with curcumin was investigated by light scattering and turbidimetry methods.The influence of the structure and molar mass of star polymers on their thermoresponsiveness and the phase separation temperatures in aqueous solutions was analyzed.A slight increase in the phase separation temperature was found on passage from polymer solutions to solutions of polymer complexes with hydrophobic curcumin.

文摘Shear stress overshoot in entangled polymer rheology is a hallmark of transient dynamics,but its microscopic origin remains under debate.Using molecular dynamics simulations,we investigate a two-step shear protocol consisting of successive startup shears separated by a waiting period,with the first shear interrupted before the overshoot.In the homogeneous flow,the GLaMM theory captures the stress response during the first shear,but fails to reproduce the nonmonotonic dependence of the second stress overshoot(σ_(2max))on the waiting time.Contrary to the prediction of a nonmonotonic normal stress component σ_(yy)during the waiting period,our simulations show that σ_(yy),like the tube segment orientation(S_(xy)),the contour length of the primitive chain(L),and the entanglement number per chain(Z),relaxes monotonically toward equilibrium.At the strain corresponding to σ_(2max),both the tube segment orientation and the entanglement number per chain exhibit a nonmonotonic dependence on the waiting time that closely mirrors the behavior of σ_(2max),indicating that both factors play significant roles in governing(σ_(2max).Our findings are consistent with the interpretation of lanniruberto and Ma rrucci[ACS Macro.Lett.2014,3,552]for orientation effects and with the viewpoint of Wang et al.[Macromolecules 2013,46,3147]for entanglement effects,although the two explanations are rooted in distinct physical pictu res.These results provide new insights into the stress responses of entanglement polymer fluids and underscore the need for a more unified theoretical framework.

文摘To investigate the pore structure of graphene oxide modified polymer cement mortar(GOPM)under salt-freeze-thaw(SFT)coupling effects and its impact on deterioration,this study modifies polymer cement mortar(EMCM)with graphene oxide(GO).The micro-pore structure of GOPM is characterized using LF-NMR and SEM.Fractal theory is applied to calculate the fractal dimension of pore volume,and the deterioration patterns are analyzed based on the evolution characteristics of capillary pores.The experimental results indicate that,after 25 salt-freeze-thaw cycles(SFTc),SO2-4 ions penetrate the matrix,generating corrosion products that fill existing pores and enhance the compactness of the specimen.As the number of cycles increases,the ongoing formation and expansion of corrosion products within the matrix,combined with persistent freezing forces,and result in the degradation of the pore structure.Therefore,the mass loss rate(MLR)of the specimens shows a trend of first decreasing and then increasing,while the relative dynamic elastic modulus(RDEM)initially increases and then decreases.Compared to the PC group specimens,the G3PM group specimens show a 28.71% reduction in MLR and a 31.42% increase in RDEM after 150 SFTc.The fractal dimensions of the transition pores,capillary pores,and macropores in the G3PM specimens first increase and then decrease as the number of SFTc increases.Among them,the capillary pores show the highest correlation with MLR and RDEM,with correlation coefficients of 0.97438 and 0.98555,respectively.

文摘Carbon-fiber-reinforced plastics(CFRP)with improved mechanical properties based on modified epoxy binders were investigated in this study.By adding 15 parts by weight(p.b.w.)of copolymer of polysulfone with cardo phthalide group(PSFP-70C)to the epoxyanhydride binder,the flexural strength of the epoxy polymer was increased by 60%,the CFRP based on it by 57%,the flexural modulus of the epoxy polymer was increased by 83%,and the composite by 96%.The adhesion strength of the binder to carbon fiber reached a high level at 10 p.b.w.of thermoplastic modifier and increased by 65%compared to the unmodified binder.Scanning electron microscopy(SEM)was used to determine that in epoxyanhydride systems with a polysulfone content of 5–15 p.b.w.,the structure belongs to the"matrix dispersion"type and with a content of 20 p.b.w.to the"interpenetrating phase"type.A heterogeneous structure was also observed using dynamic mechanical analysis.
