Effect of the presence of trace sulfur dioxide on piperazine-based amine absorbents for carbon dioxide capture

The effect of the presence of trace SO_(2)in industrial flue gas on the amine-scrubbing-based absorption process for CO_(2)capture has been a matter of concern.This study aimed to investigate the effect of trace SO_(2)on the CO_(2)capture process using piperazine-based amine absorbents,focusing on SO_(2)-resistance capability,SO_(2)/CO_(2)absorption selectivity,and cyclic stability.The presence of trace SO_(2)not only restrains CO_(2)absorption,but also promotes the formation of carbamate within the piperazine-based amine absorbents.Remarkably,the incorporation of aminoethyl group in piperazine-based amine absorbents can enhance the SO_(2)-resistance capability by promoting the formation of carbamate,while piperazine-based amine absorbents with hydroxyethyl group can promote the formation of bicarbonate to reduce the SO_(2)-resistance capability.The work offers valuable insights into the efficient application of novel amine absorbents for CO_(2)capture from practical industrial flue gas.

Achieving a superior Na storage performance of Fe-based Prussian blue cathode by coating perylene tetracarboxylic dianhydride amine

Fe-based Prussian blue(Fe-PB)cathode material shows great application potential in sodium(Na)-ion batteries due to its high theoretical capacity,long cycle life,low cost,and simple preparation process.However,the crystalline water and vacancies of Fe-PB lattice,the low electrical conductivity,and the dissolution of metal ions lead to limited capacity and poor cycling stability.In this work,a perylene tetracarboxylic dianhydride amine(PTCDA)coating layer is successfully fabricated on the surface of Fe-PB by a liquid-phase method.The aminated PTCDA(PTCA)coating not only increases the specific surface area and electronic conductivity but also effectively reduces the crystalline water and vacancies,which avoids the erosion of Fe-PB by electrolyte.Consequently,the PTCA layer reduces the charge transfer resistance,enhances the Na-ion diffusion coefficient,and improves the structure stability.The PTCA-coated Fe-PB exhibits superior Na storage performance with a first discharge capacity of 145.2 mAh g^(−1) at 100 mA g^(−1).Long cycling tests exhibit minimal capacity decay of 0.027%per cycle over 1000 cycles at 1 A g^(−1).Therefore,this PTCA coating strategy has shown promising competence in enhancing the electrochemical performance of Fe-PB,which can potentially serve as a universal electrode coating strategy for Na-ion batteries.

Activation mechanism of conventional electrolytes with amine solvents:Species evolution and hydride-containing interphase formation

Rechargeable magnesium(Mg)-metal batteries have brought great expect to overcome the safety and energy density concerns of typical lithium-ion batteries.However,interracial passivation of the Mgmetal anode impairs the reversible Mg plating/stripping chemistries,resulting in low Coulombic efficiency and large overpotential.In this work,a facile isobutylamine(IBA)-assisted activation strategy has been proposed and the fundamental mechanism has been unveiled in a specific way of evolving active species and forming MgH_(2)-based solid-electrolyte interphase.After introducing IBA into a typical electrolyte of magnesium bis(trifluoromethanesulfo nyl) imide(Mg(TFSI)_(2)) in diglyme(G2) solvents,electrolyte species of [Mg^(2+)(IBA)5]^(2+) and protonated amine-based cations of [(IBA)H]^(+) have been detected by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectra.This not only indicates direct solvation of IBA toward Mg^(2+)but also suggests its ionization,which is central to mitigating the decomposition of G2 and TFSI anions by forming neutrally charged [(IBAH^(+))(TFSI^(-))]~0 and other complex ions.A series of experiments,including cryogenic-electron microscopy,D_(2)O titration-mass spectra,and time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry results,reveal a thin,non-passivated,and MgH_(2)-containing interphase on the Mg-metal anode.Besides,uniform and dendrite-free Mg electrodeposits have been revealed in composite electrolytes.Benefiting from the activation effects of IBA,the composite electrolyte displays superior electrochemical performance(overpotential is approximately 0.16 V versus 2.00 V for conventional electrolyte;Coulombic efficiency is above 90% versus <10% for conventional electrolyte).This work offers a fresh direction to advanced electrolyte design for next-generation rechargeable batteries.

One-pot Synthesis of MoO_(3)/PI Composite with Enhanced Photocatalytic Performance for Oxidative Coupling of Amines to Imines

Organic-inorganic MoO_(3)/PI(MoPI)composites were prepared using a simple one-pot thermal copolymerization method.The resulting composites exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activity for the selective oxidation of benzylamine to N-benzylidene benzylamine(N-BDBA)in ambient air under simulated solar light irradiation compared to pristine MoO_(3) or polyimide(PI).In particular,the MoPI composite with a 0.3:1 molar ratio of Mo to melamine,referred to as MoPI-0.3,demonstrated the best performance in the photo-oxidation of benzylamine,achieving a benzylamine conversion of 95%with a N-BDBA selectivity exceeding 99%after 3 h irradiation.The enhanced photocatalytic activity of the MoPI-0.3 catalyst was attributed to the formation of a direct Z-scheme heterojunction between MoO_(3) and PI,facilitating more efficient separation of the photoinduced electrons and holes.Additionally,the MoPI-0.3 composite maintained considerably high activity over four consecutive cycles,highlighting its good stability and recyclability.Furthermore,the MoPI-0.3 composite could photo-oxidize benzylamine derivatives and heterocyclic amines to their corresponding imines,demonstrating the universal applicability of this composite catalyst.

Effects of potassium lactate on sensory attributes,bacterial community succession and biogenic amines formation in Rugao ham

To deepen the understanding in the effect of potassium lactate on the sensory quality and safety of Rugao ham,sensory attributes,physicochemical parameters,total volatile basic nitrogen(TVBN),microorganism community and biogenic amines of Rugao ham manufactured with different potassium lactate levels(0%,0.5%,1%,2%)were investigated;the relationship between microbial community and the formation of TVBN and biogenic amines was further evaluated.With the increase of potassium lactate from 0%to 2%,the increased sensory scores and the decreased total aerobic bacterial count and TVBN were observed;the abundance of Staphylococcus increased,while the content of Halomonas decreased.LDA effect size(LEf Se)and correlations analysis showed that Staphylococcus equorum and Lactobacillus fermentum could be the key species to improve sensory scores and decrease biogenic amines and TVBN.Metabolic pathway analysis further showed that amino acids metabolism and nitrogen metabolism were mainly involved in decreasing TVBN and biogenic amines in the treatment of 2%potassium lactate.

Evolution of free amino acids, biogenic amines and volatile compounds in fermented sausages inoculated with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Staphylococcus simulans

Lactic acid bacteria and coagulase-negative staphylococci play an important role in the production of fermented sausages,such as inhibiting the growth of undesirable bacteria and antioxidant.In this study,the effects of inoculation with different starter cultures(Lactiplantibacillus plantarum HN108 and Staphylococcus simulans NJ209)on the free amino acids(FAAs),biogenic amines(BAs)and volatile compounds of fermented sausages were investigated using an amino acid analyzer,ultra performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry,respectively.The pH and carbonyl content of the inoculated group was significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).L.plantarum HN108 significantly reduced the content of FAAs and BAs in fermented sausage production(P<0.05),while S.simulans NJ209 promoted the formation of FAAs(especially bitter amino acids)and exhibited slight BAs-reducing activity.In addition,L.plantarum HN108 promoted the formation of volatile compounds such as ketones,alcohols and alkenes in sausages.In conclusion,L.plantarum HN108 could contribute to reducing the content of putrescine and tyramine and forming the desirable flavor compounds in fermented sausages.Thus,L.plantarum HN108 is expected to be a starter culture that can improve the safety and flavor of fermented sausages.

Comparative Efficacy of Polyamine-Based Scavenger Resins

Polyamine-based scavenger resins containing 2, 3 and 4 nitrogen atoms have been prepared and their comparative efficacy to scavenge appropriate electrophilic chemicals (acids, acid chlorides, isocyanates and aldehydes) from solutions has been studied. As expected, the scavenging efficiency is directly proportional to the number of nucleophic nitrogens present on the resin. The results have been compared with the performance of the popular scavenger resin, namely, tris(2-aminoethyl)amine resin, to conclude that the low-cost polyamine resins now prepared can be conveniently used as effectively as the expensive commercial product.

Heat of absorption of CO_2 in aqueous N,N-diethylethanolamine+ N-methyl-1,3-propanediamine solutions at 313 K

Differential heat of absorption of CO_2 in aqueous solutions of N,N-diethylethanolamine(DEEA) and activated DEEA solutions up to a total concentration of 2 mol·L^(-1) was measured as a function of CO_2 loading at 313.15 K using a reaction calorimeter. In order to analyze the performance of N-methyl-1,3-propanediamine(MAPA)as an activator, DEEA blended solutions containing 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2 mol·L^(-1) MAPA were studied. The heat of CO_2 absorption in single DEEA solutions was unaffected by changing the DEEA concentration in the range of(0.5–2) mol·L^(-1). On the other hand, increasing the concentration of MAPA in aqueous amine mixtures of(DEEA + MAPA) raised the heat of absorption.

Effects of N-(3',4',5'-Trimethoxycinnamoyl) ortho-Aminobenzoic Acid on Antigen-induced Contraction of Guinea-pig Ileum and the Degranulation of and Histamine Release from Mast Cells

N-(3′,4′,5′-Trimethoxycinnamoyl)ortho-aminobenzoic acid(TOA),at the concentration of 80μg/ml,significantly inhibited the antigen-induced contraction of ileum isolated from the actively sensitized guinea-pig.At the concentrations of 25 and 50μg/ml, TOA inhibited homocytotropic antibody-mediated degranulation of mast cells in the rat mesentery,and also inhibited anaphylactic histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells.

SAPO-34 synthesized with n-butylamine as a template and its catalytic application in the methanol amination reaction

SAPO-34 was synthesized with n-butylamine（BA） as a template for the first time.Crystallization temperature and initial Si amount were important factors leading to successful syntheses.Lamellar AlPO-kanemite tends to form as the major phase or as an impurity of SAPO-34 at lower crystallization temperatures,though a higher initial Si amount may offer a positive effect on the crystallization of SAPO-34 that mitigates the low temperature.Higher temperature（240℃） can effectively suppress the generation of lamellar materials and allow the synthesis of pure SAPO-34 with a wider range of Si incorporation.The crystallization processes at 200 and 240℃ were investigated and compared.We used the aminothermal method to synthesize SAPO-34-BA at 240℃ and also found n-propylamine is a suitable template for the synthesis of SAPO-34.The SAPO-34-BA products were characterized by many techniques.SAPO-34-BA has good thermal stability,crystallinity and porosity.BA remained intact in the crystals with ~1.8 BA molecule per chabazite cage.The catalytic performance of SAPO-34 was tested in the methanol amination reaction,which showed high methanol conversion and selectivity for methylamine plus dimethylamine under the conditions investigated,suggesting that this material is a good candidate for the synthesis of methylamines.

Dynamics simulation of tertiary amines adsorbing on kaolinite(001) plane

The collecting power of tertiary amines（DRN,DEN and DPN） on kaolinite follows the order of DENDPNDRN.After reacting with DRN,DEN and DPN,the surface potentials of kaolinite increase remarkably,and the recruitments caused by collectors also follow the order of DENDPNDRN.The results of dynamics simulation show that the geometries of substituent groups bonding to N are deflected and twisted,and some of bond angles are changed when tertiary amines cations adsorb on kaolinite（001） surface.Based on the results of dynamics simulations and quantum chemistry calculations,the electrostatic forces between three tertiary amines cations and 4×4×3（001） plane of kaolinite are 1.38×10？7 N（DRN12H＋）,1.44×10-6 N（DEN12H＋）,1.383×10-6 N（DPN12H＋）,respectively.

Semicarbazide-Sensitive Amine Oxidase对血糖调节作用研究

Semicarbazide-Sensitive Amine Oxidase(SSAO)是一类在人体内广泛分布但生理功能尚不清楚的酶。本研究中我们首次在动物模型上发现了SSAO活性对大鼠血糖的影响。通过使用SSAO的高选择性抑制剂MDL-72974A以及它的内源性底物甲胺等对动物进行处理,研究血糖与SSAO活性的关系。SSAO活性用同位素标记法以14C-苯甲胺为底物进行测定,血糖则采用己糖激酶法测定。此外我们还测定了尿甲醛排泄以考察SSAO催化脱氨反应是否发生。实验结果显示,抑制SSAO活性可以导致动物血糖升高,并且SSAO底物甲胺可以降低糖尿病鼠血糖。这些结果表明SSAO可能在血糖调节方面有某种作用,进一步研究将对发展糖尿病治疗策略有重要意义。

Enhancement of CO_2 adsorption on nanoporous chromium terephthalate(MIL-101) by amine modification

Carbon dioxide （CO2） adsorption on a standard metal-organic framework MIL-101 and a pentaethylenehexamine modified MIL-101 （PEHA- MIL-101） are investigated and compared in this study. The adsorbent samples were characterized by XRD, FT-IR and nitrogen adsorption- desorption isotherms analysis. CO2 adsorption capacity was measured by a volumetric method. MIL-101 and PEHA-MIL-101 exhibited CO2 adsorption capacities of 0.85 and 1.3 mmO1CO2/gadsorbent at 10 bar and 298 K, respectively. It is observed that CO2 adsorption capacity was fairly improved about 50% after amine modification.

Analysis of <i>N</i>-Nitrosamine Migration from Rubber Teats and Soothers

A testing method for N-nitrosamines and N-nitrosatable substances in rubber teats and soothers was modified. N-Nitrosamines are generally analyzed using either a nitrogen chemiluminescence detector (NCD) or a thermal energy analyzer (TEA). However, because few testing laboratories are equipped with these devices, it is difficult to conduct these tests. Therefore, an analysis method for N-nitrosamines using the more widespread gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method was improved. In addition, EN 12868 was used to prepare the test solutions because of its worldwide use and compliance with EU regulations. Using GC-MS, EN 12868 method targeting ten kinds of N-nitrosamines was modified. The determination limits of the method were 1.0 -1.5 μg/kg for N-nitrosamines and 4 -6 μg/kg for N-nitrosatable substances. Quantification was possible at 1/5 or less and 1/15 or less, respectively, of the regulation values listed in EU Directive 93/11/EEC. In terms of application, there were no problems with the selectivity of the detector. The recoveries were 58% -109% for N-nitrosamines and 59% -102% for N-nitrosatable substances. Screening and verification were possible by measuring the amount of secondary amines in the boiled solution and migration solution.

Hydrolysis of New Transplatin Analogue Containing One Aliphatic and One Planar Heterocyclic Amine Ligand： A Density Functional Theory Study

Herein we give a theoretical study of the hydrolysis processes of a novel anticancer drug trans-[PtCl2（3-pico）（ipa）] （3-pico=3-methylpyridine, ipa=isopropylamine）. Two different models, model 1 relative to isolated reactant/product （R/P, wherein R=platinum complex＋H2O, P=platinum complex＋Cl^-） and model 2 relative to reactant complex/product complex （RC/PC, wherein RC=（platinum complex）（H2O）, PC=（platinum complex）（CI^-） are employed and the geometric structures are optimized at the B3LYP level of DFT method. It is found that the processes of the reactions follow the established theory for ligand substitution in square planar complexes; the geometries of the transition states （TS） agree with the previous related work and all of the reactions are endothermic. The effects originating from the inclusion of the attacking water/released chloride into the second coordination shell of platinum in RC/PC play an important role in the thermodynamic and kinetic profiles of the reactions, that is, the barrier heights of the reactions of model 2 are increased by -26.3 and -23.8 kJ/mol for step1 and step2 respectively, and the endothermicity is considerably decreased by -420.5 and -771.2 kJ/mol compared to model 1 in the gas phase. The consideration of the bulk solvation effects increase the barrier heights for both steps of model 1 by -27.6 and -6.7 kJ/mol respectively, whereas it reduces the barrier heights by -7.9 and -29.3 kJ/mol for model 2. The reaction energies are all decreased, especially for model i, indicating more stable complexes solvated in the bulk aqueous solution than in the gas phase. Additionally, to get an accurate energy picture of the title complex, the relative free energies derived from the DFT-SCRF （density functional theory self-consistent field） calculations are compared with the relative total energies. The results are that activation energies rise for the first hydrolysis and fall for the second hydrolysis for all the systems, and for all the systems, the barrier height of the second hydrolysis is always higher than that of the first step. The rate constants indicate that transplatin analogue is kinetically comparable to cisplatin and its analogue in the hydrolysis process.

Modulation by Biogenic Amines for the Hemocyte Count and Prophenoloxidase Exocytosis via Receptors in Litopenaeus vannamei

Hemocyte counts and phenoloxidase(PO)activity were examined after hemolymph being incubated in dopamine(DA),noradrenaline(NE)and serotonin(5-HT).Results showed that all the three biogenic amines(BAs)had a significant impact on total hemocyte count(THC),differential hemocyte count(DHC),and intracelluar and extracelluar phenoloxidase(PO)activity.Among these Bas,DA had the strongest effect on the above parameters,whereas 5-HT had the least effect.Preincubation with D1 receptor antagonist SCH23390,D2 receptor antagonist Sulpiride and 1:1 admixture of the two could significantly inhibit the effect of DA on these parameters.SCH23390 showed a stronger inhibitory effect than Sulpiride,and the admixture exhibited the strongest effect.These results suggested that the change of hemocyte count and activation of prophenoloxidase(proPO)system in Litopenaeusvan-namei hemocyte can be regulated by BAs,and DA modulates the two parameters via its receptors.

Optimization of reaction for synthesis of polyisobutylene amine between amination agent and epoxy polyisobutylene

An optimization study on the amination reaction of epoxy polyisobutylene for synthesis of polyisobutylene amine is presented. The experimental results indicate that n-butanol and ethylenediamine are the suitable solvent and amination agents for the reaction, respectively. The reaction yield of the amination reaction is notably increased with the enhanced molar ratio of either n-butanol against epoxy polyisobutylene or ethylenediamine against epoxy polyisobutylene. Also, the yield is enhanced with increasing temperature and time during the experimental range. Strikingly, the yield reaches as high as 91. 30% under optimal conditions; with the molar ratio of ethylenediamine, n-butanol and PIBO of 10∶ 6∶ 1, the reaction temperature of 150 ℃ and the reaction time of 6 h. In addition, the yield of the reaction is slightly decreased with the enhanced water content of the system. Accordingly, the mass concentration of water should be controlled within 1. 7% during the reaction.

Simple Detection Method of Biogenic Amines in Decomposed Fish by Intramolecular Excimer Fluorescence

Biogenic amines are known to have various biological functions such as not only neurotransmitter and cell proliferation but also food poisoning. Bacterially-decomposed amines such as histamine, agmatine, putrescine, cadaverine, spermidine and spermine cause allergic symptoms. We developed simple method for measurement of polyamine as indicator of food decomposition with a fluorometer by using 4-(1-Pyrene)butyric acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (PSE). PSE reacts with primary and secondary amino moieties of polyamines and produces the intramolecular excimer fluorescence. Excimer fluorescence with broad peak at around 470 nm was clearly detected in linear type biogenic amines such as putrescine, cadaverine, spermidine and spermine at 10 mM. However neither histamine nor trimethylamine altered the fluorescence. Decomposed sardine and mackerel by improper storage showed stronger intensity than fresh ones. Comparing with OPA-method, PSE method was useful for screening biogenic amines present in food, esp. fish since the analysis was simple after one-step purification procedure. An inexpensive system which can rapidly detect biogenic amines from food is necessary in a medium and small-sized food business. The technique using excimer has potential to realize the high through-put screening system for evaluation of food freshness and is expected to bring the public interests such as food security and safety of consumer.

INTERACTIONS BETWEEN KETONES AND AMINES IN PHOTOINITIATING SYSTEMS USED FOR RADICAL POLYMERIZATION

Time resolved laser spectroscopy and GC/MS were used to investigate the primary processes and the side reactions occurring in benzophenone and chlorothioxanthone/amine systems used as photoinitiators of radical polymerization. The discrepancy observed between the experimental data and the expected behaviour is accounted for by detrimental chemical reaction involving the ketone triplet state, the ketyl radical and the amine-derived radical.
