[bmim]Cl demonstrates to be a preferable solvent for ATRP of acrylonitrile （AN）. The polymerization maintains the usual advantages of ATRP with molecular weight agrees well with theoretical value and low polydispersity （PDI = 1.15）. It is also shown the higher conversion and lower molecular weight dispersion in ionic liquid than in dimethylformamide （DMF）. From FTIR and NMR analysis, it is confirmed that the chemical structures of PANs synthesized in [bmim]Cl were identical with that obtained in DMF. In atom transfer radical polymerization, the methine and cyan carbon atoms in isotactic configuration for PAN produced in [bmim] Cl have a configuration consisting of about 55.5% isotactic diads. It is higher than that obtained in DMF which is 52.2%. So, ionic liquid has effect on the stereostructure of PANs. Further analysis of ^13C NMR spectra indicated that the isotacticity of PAN synthesized by free radical polymerization was lower than that of PAN prepared by ATRP, although both of them were random in stereoregularity. Besides the pentad tacticities of PANs also suggested that the sequence distributions of them all obey Bernoulli statistics.展开更多

In the new clusters, the aluminum core-frame acts as a super-atom with n vertexes and 2n A1-A1 edges, which allow to adsorb n hydrogen atoms at the top-site and 2n at the bridge-site. Using Al12H36 as the basic unit, stable chain structures, （Al12H36）m, have been constructed following the same connection mechanism as for （A1H3）n linear polymeric structures. Apart from high hydrogen percentage per molecule, calculations have shown that these new clusters possess large heat of formation values and their combustion heat is about 4.8 times of the methane, making them a promising high energy density material.展开更多
