Experimental work was carried out using the pendant drop method coupled with image analysis within an adapted instrumented climatic chamber. Results show that surface tension linearly decreases when relative humidity increases. Although the effect of humidity is less compared to that of the temperature and even less compared to a surfactant impact, it must not be neglected and values have to be mentioned when dealing with water evaporation. Modifying surface tension also affects the pendant drop shape. The drying kinetics of the pendant drop volume and its outer shell are connected to this change of shape. Steam in the air can be assimilated to a wetting agent, hence a surfactant, and can be used in an environmental-friendly way to ease the drying stage. Indeed, the challenge is to limit the risk of cracking and damaging pieces during this crucial step in material processing.展开更多

Inter-and intra -molecular exciplex is formed between the singlet excited state of N, N- dimethylanilino group (abbreviated to DMA) and the ground state of terephthalate group (abbreviated to TP). The intensity ratio of the long wavelength exciplex fluorescence to the short wavelength emission of DMA group is used as an index for the inter-and intra-molecular interaction of chromophores. The results are compared with model polymer polyoxy-2-(4-N ,N-dimethylaminobenzyl) propanc-1 , 3-diyloxyadipoyl (Ⅱ), model monomer compound 4-N, N-dimethylaminobenzylmethyl terephthalate(Ⅲ) and diethyl 2-( 4-N, N-dimethylaminobenzyl) malonate (Ⅳ). Polymer association derived by electron donor and acceptor interaction (EDA) is further verified as a key role in the interpolymer exciplex formation . The fluorescence decay time of (Ⅰ) and monomer (Ⅲ) are measured in solutions.展开更多

For organic composite part, 1) maltose-pendant polymer (homopolymer) and 2) the copolymer of maltose-pendant monomer and a small amount of N,N-Dimethylamino propylacrylamide, methyl chloride quartenary were used. The morphological studies (XRD and FE-SEM) revealed that the hybrid of maltose-pendant polymer was a conventional phase separated composite. On the other hand, the hybrid using the copolymer exhibited exfoliated structure. Both the conventional composite of maltose-pendant polymer and the nanocomposite of copolymer were applied to a coating material for oxygen gas barrier layer on a nylon-6 film, and oxygen transmission rates of the films were evaluated. Maltose-pendant polymer had a good oxygen barrier property under dry condition, and the barrier property under wet condition was improved by the hybridization with mica. In contrast, the barrier property of copolymer was slightly inferior to that of maltosependant polymer. However, under dry condition, it can be seen that the nanocomposite of copolymer improves the barrier property more effectively than the case of conventional composite of maltose-pendant polymer.展开更多

Firstly, substituted cyclic ketone, 2-(benzyloxycarbonyl methyl)cyclopentanone (BCP) was prepared through the reaction of enamine with benzyl-2-bromoacetate, and subsequently converted into the relevant functionalized 6-valerolactone derivative, 5-(benzyloxy carbonylmethyl)-δ-valerolaetone (BVL) by the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation. Secondly, the ring-opening polymerization of BVL with ε-caprolactone was carried out in bulk using stannous octoate as the catalyst to produce poly(ε-caprolactone-co-δ-valerolactone) bearing the benzyl-protected carboxyl functional groups [P(CL-co-BVL)]. Finally, the benzyl-protecting groups of P(CL-co-BVL) were effectively removed by H2 using Pd/C as the catalyst to obtain poly(ε-caprolactone-co-δ-valerolactone) bearing pendant carboxylic acids [P(CL-co-CVL)]. The structure and the properties of the polymer have been studied by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Fourier Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Differential Scan Calorimetry (DSC) etc. The NMR and FT-IR results confirmed the polymer structure, and the 13C NMR spectra have clearly interpreted the sequence of ε-caprolactone and 5-(benzyloxycarbonylmethyl)-δ-valerolactone in the copolymer. When the benzyl-protecting groups were removed, the aliphatic polyesters bearing carboxylic groups were obtained. Moreover, the hydrophilicity of the polymer was improved. Thus, poly(ε-caprolactone-co-δ-valerolactone) might have great potential in biomedical fields.展开更多

It was made from five pieces of jade which were carved into ornamental shapes, including a dragon, a phoenix, a bi(a round flat piece of jade with a hole in the center), and rings. Three slip-hoops are fashioned into an ellipse. A single jade nail connects the pieces to a pendant which can be folded or taken apart. Some designs often were carved either on one side or both sides of these ornaments. On this piece are found 37 styles of dragons, seven kinds of phoenixes and ten snakes, done by drill-carving, carving on the surface or in intagolio. Also on the pendant is a picture titled "The Claws of the Phoenixes Grasp the Snakes."展开更多

Pendant drop method is applied to the investigation of the contact angles of CO2 on a stainless steel surface in its own vapor. The image of the pendant drop is recorded by a camera, and a B-Snake method is used to analyze the contour and the contact angle of the droplet. The experimental results have provided a set of well tested data, which show that CO2 has good infiltration into stainless steel surface and the de- veloped method can be used as a standard testing one for measuring the contact angle between high-pressure liquid and solid surface.展开更多
