Developing membrane materials with efficient separation performance is still the main task since the membrane should provide chemical stability, high permeation flux, and selectivity. In this study, the hyperbranched polymer(HBP) was deposited on the outer surface of a polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF)hollow-fiber ultrafiltration membrane by a facile dip-coating method. The dip-coating rate, HBP concentration, and thermal cross-linking temperature were regulated to optimize the membrane structure.The obtained HBP/PVDF hollow-fiber-composite membrane had a good separation performance for aromatic/aliphatic hydrocarbon mixtures. For the 50%/50%(mass) toluene/n-heptane mixture, the permeation flux of optimized composite membranes could reach 1766 g·m^(-2)·h^(-1), with a separation factor of 4.1 at 60℃. Therefore, the HBP/PVDF hollow-fiber-composite membrane has great application prospects in the pervaporation separation of aromatic/aliphatic hydrocarbon mixtures.展开更多

Several redox initiating chemicals such as Cu（III）/--CONH2, Ce（IV）/--CONH2 and Ce（IV）/--OH were chosen to increase the free radical generating rate, and the chain transfer agent （CTA） was used to reduce the molecular chain propagating rate, in order to obtain polymers with high degree of branching. Detailed analyses based on the molecular weight, α value and the degree of branching of polymers （DB） obtained from 1H-NMR spectra and multi detector size exclusion chromatography （MDSEC） suggested the acquiring of hyperbranced polyacrylamides with Cu（III）/--CONH2 and Ce（IV）/--CONH2 as initiator in the presence of the CTA. Meanwhile, the as-prepared poly（N-hydroxymethyl acrylamide） （PNHAM） with higher DB value （0.48） proved that using Ce（IV）/--OH as the initiator could increase the free radical generating rate and diminish the gap between the propagating rate and the initiation rate during the reaction procedure. In addition, the effect of oxidant concentration on the Mark-Houwink index （α） value and the DB was also studied.展开更多

The polymers are named according to the polymerization ratio of 4CzCNPy monomer （5 mol%, 10 mol% and 15 mol% for HBPs of P2-P4 respectively, and 0 mol% for the control linear polymer P1）. Their thermal, optoelectronic and electrochemical properties have been characterized by a combination of techniques. All the polymers exhibit high thermal stability with the decomposition temperatures （Ta） above 400 ℃ and glass transition temperatures （Tg） up to 98℃. Unfortunately, the incorporation of TADF moiety into these HBP materials induced non-TADF characteristics. However, when the HBPs functionalized as the host for our previously developed 4CzCNPy TADF dopant in solution processed devices, maximum external quantum efficiency of 5.7% and current efficiency of 17.9 cd/A have been achieved in P3-based device, which is significantly higher than those of 1.5% and 4.2 cd/A for the linear polymer P1.展开更多

The obtained acrylated hyperbranched polymers alone or with a monofunctional diluent, isobornylene acrylate(IBOA) were further cured by UV radiation. The cured films based on the modified polymers alone all demonstrated poor mechanical properties due to their high network densities and low moving ability of polymer chains. For the composite systems, the cured films demonstrated improved mechanical properties due to the low network densities and high chain moving ability. With more IBOA included in the systems, acrylate groups can react to a higher extent during the curing process.展开更多

The structure of the hyperbranched polymer was confirmed by FT-IR and 1H-NMR. PBTADB dissolved in organic polar solvents such as DMSO and NMP. Bithiazole tings were introduced to provide bidentate N-donor sites for binding metal ions. The metal complexes were prepared by chelation of the polymer with Co2＋ and Sm3＋. The magnetic behavior of coolcdination compounds was measured as a function of magnetic field strength （0-4.8 ×106 A/m） at 5 K and as a fimetion of temperature （5-300 K） at magnetic field strength of 2.4×106 A/re. The magnetic hysteresis loops of PBTADB-Sm3＋ and PBTADB-Co2＋ showed the typical ＇S＇ shape at 5 K with the Curie-Weiss temperature To = 96 K and 41 K respectively. The results show that they exhibit properties of soft ferromagnetic materials.展开更多

The reactivity difference between the 13 group in linear unit and that in terminal group has great effect on the molecular parameters of the products obtained. The concentration of terminal units has a maximum with the increase of the conversion of A groups （x）. The higher the reactivity ratio （r） of linear B group to branched one is, the later the maximum appears and the larger it is. The degree of branching of the hyperbranched polymers obtained is controllable by adjusting the parameters of r and x, which increases with increasing both x and r.展开更多

文摘Fluorosurfactants are the key ingredients in the formulations of aqueous film-forming foams(AFFFs)for extinguishing flammable liquids,thus developing high-efficient and low-toxic fluorosurfactants is desirable in AFFFs application.Herein,a series of hyperbranched polymeric fluorosu rfactants(HPFs)were successfully synthesized through sequentially modifying hyperbranched polyethylenimine(PEI)with the hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG)chains and the hydrophobic C6/C4-based perfluoroalkyl chains,which were verified by FTIR,^(1)H-and^(19)F-NMR.The surface tensions of all the HPFs in water were measured,and the corresponding physicochemical parameters were interpreted.It was found that the surface activities of HPFs could be tuned through adjusting the ratio of PEG to perfluoroalkyl chains,the length of perfluoroalkyl chains,the molecular weight of PEI core,but not the PEG chain length.In the binary mixture of HPFs with the commercial small molecule fluorosurfactant Capstone^(TM)1157(C1157),a strong synergism led to the elevation of surface activity,which was attributed to the efficient encapsulation of C1157 vips by the compact hyperbranched HPFs as the hosts.The utilization of HPF/C1157 as fluorosurfactant ingredients in AFFF formulations could realize much higher fire-extinguishing efficiency towards flammable oils than the control AFFFs prepa red from the polymeric Capstone^(TM)1460 or the neat C1157.

文摘A novel conjugated hyperbranched polymer containing bithiazole rings （PBTADB） was synthesized by polycondensation of 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxaldehyde and 2,2＇-diamino-4,4＇-bithiazole （DABT）. The structure of the hyperbranched polymer was confirmed by FT-IR and 1H-NMR. PBTADB dissolved in organic polar solvents such as DMSO and NMP. Bithiazole tings were introduced to provide bidentate N-donor sites for binding metal ions. The metal complexes were prepared by chelation of the polymer with Co2＋ and Sm3＋. The magnetic behavior of coolcdination compounds was measured as a function of magnetic field strength （0-4.8 ×106 A/m） at 5 K and as a fimetion of temperature （5-300 K） at magnetic field strength of 2.4×106 A/re. The magnetic hysteresis loops of PBTADB-Sm3＋ and PBTADB-Co2＋ showed the typical ＇S＇ shape at 5 K with the Curie-Weiss temperature To = 96 K and 41 K respectively. The results show that they exhibit properties of soft ferromagnetic materials.

文摘The analytical expressions of the various structural units and the average degree of branching for the hyperbranched polymers resulted from AB2 polycondensation with substitution effect were derived by the kinetic mechanism. The reactivity difference between the 13 group in linear unit and that in terminal group has great effect on the molecular parameters of the products obtained. The concentration of terminal units has a maximum with the increase of the conversion of A groups （x）. The higher the reactivity ratio （r） of linear B group to branched one is, the later the maximum appears and the larger it is. The degree of branching of the hyperbranched polymers obtained is controllable by adjusting the parameters of r and x, which increases with increasing both x and r.

文摘In this work, 4-methoxylcinnamoyl chloride was reacted with a commercial hyperbranched polymer （Boltom-TM H30） to prepare a hyperbranched photosensitive polymer （H30-Ci）. The polymer was characterized by UV absorption spectrum and 1H- NMR spectrum. After processed by Linearly Polarized Polymerization （LPP） method, the spin-coated films of H30-Ci were used as photo-alignment layers to assemble liquid crystal （LC） cells containing nematic liquid crystal （5CB）. The observation by polarized microscope showed that the H30-Ci blended with a linear polymer （BP-AN-Ci） photo-alignment layers could align LC molecules in a very uniform way.

文摘Functional hyperbranched polymers,as an important class of materials,are widely applied in diverse areas.Therefore,the development of simple and efficient reactions to prepare hyperbranched polymers is of great significance.In this work,trialdehydes,diamines,and trimethylsilyl cyanide could easily undergo multicomponent polymerization under mild conditions,producing hyperbranched poly(α-aminonitrile)s with high molecular weights(M_(w) up to 4.87×10^(4))in good yields(up to 85%).The hyperbranched poly(α-aminonitrile)s have good solubility in commonly used organic solvents,high thermal stability as well as morphological stability.Furthermore,due to the numerous aldehyde groups in their branched chains,these hb-poly(α-aminonitrile)s can undergo one-pot,two-step,four-component post-polymerization with high efficiency.This work not only confirms the efficiency of our established catalyst-free multicomponent polymerization of aldehydes,amines and trimethylsilyl cyanide,but also provides a versatile and powerful platform for the preparation of functional hyperbranched polymeric materials.

文摘Direct deployment of gluing and achieving durable robust adhesion in water is challenging due to difficulty in repelling interface water.This work reports a novel hyperbranched polymer-based water-resistant adhesive(HBPBA)based on Michael addition reaction of multi-vinyl monomers with dopamine and 3-aminophenylboronic acid.Upon encountering water,the HBPBA forms coacervates whose hydrophobic chains aggregate to displace interface water,and meanwhile the catechols exposing outwards contribute to underwater adhesion.The HBPBA can strongly glue diverse substrates including PTFE,PE,PET,ceramic,Ti and stainless steel.The HBPBA can maintain stable adhesion in different environments,such as tap water,simulated sea water,PBS,and a wide range of pH solutions(pH 2 to 10)for 3 months,supposedly due to the complexation of catechol with boronic acid.Intriguingly,HBPBA film can be bonded to the titanium surface as a primer,which firmly anchors the antifouling PNAGAPCBAA hydrogel coating through copolymerization of remaining double bonds in HBPBA and NAGA plus CBAA.The PNAGA-PCBAA hydrogel-modified titanium is biocompatible and shows outstanding antifouling ability both in vitro and in vivo.This work proposes a new strategy for creating underwater deployable and water-resistant adhesives that may find promising applications in engineering and biomedical fields.

文摘Azide-alkyne click polymerization has become a powerful tool for polymer synthesis.However,the click polymerization between internal alkynes and azides is rarely utilized to prepare functional polymers.In this work,the polymerization reactions of activated internal alkyne monomers of tris(2-butynoate)s(1)with tetraphenylethene-containing diazides(2)were performed in dimethylformamide(DMF)under simple heating,affording four hyperbranched poly(methyltriazolylcarboxylate)s(hb-PMTCs)with high molecular weights(A4W up to 2.4 x 104)and regioregularities(up to 83.9%)in good yields.The hb-PMTCs are soluble in common organic solvents,and thermally stable with 5%weight loss temperatures up to 400℃.They are non-emissive in dilute solution,but become highly emissive in aggregated state,exhibiting aggregationinduced emission characteristics.The polymers can generate fluorescent photopatterns with high resolution,and can work as fluorescent sensors to detect nitroaromatic explosive with high sensitivity.

文摘The research on the supramolecular hyperbranched polymers(SHPs) that combines the advantages of supramolecular polymer and hyperbranched architecture has attracted considerable interests in many applications. Here we demonstrate a simple approach to prepare POSS-embedded supramolecular hyperbranched polymers(POSS-SHPs) with varied morphology and size by controlling monomer concentration and mixed solvents. The SHPs formations can further transfer into the core-shell structured micelles by addition of competitive vips based on the double supramolecular driving forces.

文摘Dendronized hyperbranched polymer （DHP） is a new kind of polymer, which combines the advantages of dendrimers and hy- perbranched polymers. In this work, two dendronized hyperbranched polymers, DttPG0 and DHPG1, were successfully pre- pared through the simple ＂A3＋B2＂ type Sonogashira coupling reaction. The nonlinear optical （NLO） effects of DHPG0 and DItPG1, characterized by the d33 values, were 183 and 220 pm V-1 respectively, higher than those of their analogues of den- dronized polymers and dendrimers, thanks to the special topological structure. Also, the obtained polymers displayed excellent solubility, good processability, and high thermal stability.
