Three New Zn(Ⅱ)/Cd(Ⅱ) Coordination Polymers Constructed with 2-Mercaptonicotinic Acid and 1,2-Di(4-pyridyl)ethylene: Syntheses and Structure Analysis

Three new Zn（Ⅱ）/Cd（Ⅱ） coordination polymers based on 2-mercaptonicotinic acid （H2mna） with 1,2-di（4-pyridyl）ethylene （dpe） introduced as a bridging ligand have been synthesized via hydrothermal method and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction as well as elemental analysis and IR. As reported in this paper, [Zn2（dpe）0.5（mna）2] （1） can be classified as a two-dimensional layer structure in which the 1D chain composed of Zn（Ⅱ） and mna ligands is bridged by dpe ligands, while the complex named [Zn4（dpe）4（mna）4] （2） is a tetra-nuclear cluster compound. These two compounds are further extended to three-dimensional structures by hydrogen bonds along with C–H…π and π…π interactions. Compound 3 with general formular [Cd2（dpe）0.5（mna）2]·H2O belongs to a three-dimensional porous structure in which the 2D metal layers formed by the coordination of Cd（Ⅱ） and mna ligands are connected with the bridging of dpe ligands.

Novel sandwich structured glass fiber Cloth/Poly(ethylene oxide)-MXene composite electrolyte

Recently,poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO)-based solid polymer electrolytes have been attracting great attention,and efforts are currently underway to develop PEO-based composite electrolytes for next generation high performance all-solid-state lithium metal batteries.In this article,a novel sandwich structured solid-state PEO composite electrolyte is developed for high performance all-solid-state lithium metal batteries.The PEO-based composite electrolyte is fabricated by hot-pressing PEO,LiTFSI and Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene nanosheets into glass fiber cloth(GFC).The as-prepared GFC@PEO-MXene electrolyte shows high mechanical properties,good electrochemical stability,and high lithium-ion migration number,which indicates an obvious synergistic effect from the microscale GFC and the nanoscale MXene.Such as,the GFC@PEO-1 wt%MXene electrolyte shows a high tensile strength of 43.43 MPa and an impressive Young's modulus of 496 MPa,which are increased by 1205%and 6048%over those of PEO.Meanwhile,the ionic conductivity of GFC@PEO-1 wt%MXene at 60℃ reaches 5.01×10^(-2) S m^(-1),which is increased by around 200%compared with that of GFC@PEO electrolyte.In addition,the Li/Li symmetric battery based on GFC@PEO-1 wt%MXene electrolyte shows an excellent cycling stability over 800 h(0.3 mA cm^(-2),0.3 mAh cm^(-2)),which is obviously longer than that based on PEO and GFC@PEO electrolytes due to the better compatibility of GFC@PEO-1 wt%MXene electrolyte with Li anode.Furthermore,the solid-state Li/LiFePO_(4) battery with GFC@PEO-1 wt%MXene as electrolyte demonstrates a high capacity of 110.2–166.1 mAh g^(-1) in a wide temperature range of 25–60C,and an excellent capacity retention rate.The developed sandwich structured GFC@PEO-1 wt%MXene electrolyte with the excellent overall performance is promising for next generation high performance all-solid-state lithium metal batteries.

Ca_(2)MnO_(4)-layered perovskite modified by NaNO_(3)for chemical-looping oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene

Chemical-looping oxidative dehydrogenation(CL-ODH)is a process designed for the conversion of alkanes into olefins through cyclic redox reactions,eliminating the need for gaseous O_(2).In this work,we investigated the use of Ca_(2)MnO_(4)-layered perovskites modified with NaNO_(3) dopants,serving as redox catalysts(also known as oxygen carriers),for the CL-ODH of ethane within a temperature range of 700-780℃.Our findings revealed that the incorporation of NaNO_(3) as a modifier significantly-nhanced the selectivity for-thylene generation from Ca_(2)MnO_(4).At 750℃and a gas hourly space velocity of 1300 h^(-1),we achieved an-thane conversion up to 68.17%,accompanied by a corresponding-thylene yield of 57.39%.X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis unveiled that the doping NaNO_(3) onto Ca_(2)MnO_(4) not only played a role in reducing the oxidation state of Mn ions but also increased the lattice oxygen content of the redox catalyst.Furthermore,formation of NaNO_(3) shell on the surface of Ca_(2)MnO_(4) led to a reduction in the concentration of manganese sites and modulated the oxygen-releasing behavior in a step-wise manner.This modulation contributed significantly to the enhanced selectivity for ethylene of the NaNO_(3)-doped Ca_(2)MnO_(4) catalyst.These findings provide compelling evidence for the potential of Ca_(2)MnO_(4)-layered perovskites as promising redox catalysts in the context of CL-ODH reactions.

Low-Temperature Plasma Induced Grafting of 2-Methacryloyloxyethyl Phosphorylcholine onto Poly(tetrafluoroethylene) Films

Modification of poly(tetrafluoroethylene)(PTFE) films with 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine(MPC) was performed by low-temperature plasma treatment and grafting polymerization.Surface properties of PTFE were characterized by attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared(ATR-FTIR) spectra,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) ,and static contact angle.The results show that MPC has been grafted onto PTFE film surface successfully.Contact angle for the modified PTFE films in the water decreased from 108°to 58.25°,while surface energy increased from 17.52 mN/m to 45.47 mN/m.The effects of plasma treatment time,monomer concentration and grafting time on degree of grafting were determined.In the meanwhile,blood compatibility of the PTFE films was studied by checking thrombogenic time of blood plasma.

Polyvinyl acetate/poly(amide-12-b-ethylene oxide) blend membranes for carbon dioxide separation

In this paper,blend membranes from polyvinyl acetate(PVAc)and block copolymer poly(amide-12-b-ethylene oxide)(Pebax1074)are prepared by solution casting and solvent evaporation method.Although they are homogeneous on a macro-scale,the observations from DSC and SEM indicate micro-phase separation for PVAc/Pebax1074 blend membranes.With the increase of Pebax1074 content,gas permeabilities of CO2,H2,N2and CH4all increase greatly.PVAc/Pebax1074 blend membranes with high PVAc content are appropriate for CO2/CH4separation.The temperature dependence of gas permeability is divided into rubbery region and glassy region.The activation energies of permeation in rubbery region are smaller than those in glassy region,and they all decrease with increasing Pebax1074 content.For N2,H2and CH4,their gas permeation properties are mainly influenced by the dual-mode sorption and hydrostatic pressure effect.But for CO2,its permeability increases with the increase of pressure due to CO2-induced plasticization effect,which is more obvious for PVAc/Pebax1074 blend membranes with high PVAc content.

CONDUCTING BLENDS OF POLY (2-VINYL PYRIDINE) AND POLYETHYLENE OXIDE WITH HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT

Ionic, electronic and mixed (ionic-electronic) conductivities of blends of poly(2-vinyl pyridine) (P2VP) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) with high molecular weight after doped with LiClO4, TCNQ or LiClO4 and TCNQ were investigated. Effects of LiClO4 and TCNQ concentrations on the conductivity of PEO/P2VP/LiClO4 or TCNQ blend were studied. The ionic conductivity of PEO/P2VP/LiClO4 blend increases with increasing PEO content. At a Li/ethylene bride molar ratio of 0.10 and a TCNQ/2-vinyl pyridine molar ratio of 0.5, the mixed conductivity of PEO/P2VP/LiClO4/TCNQ is higher than the total of ionic conductivity of PEO/P2VP/LiClO4 and electronic conductivity of PEO/P2VP/TCNQ when the weight ratio of PEO and P2VP is 6/4 or 5/5. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) on the broken cross-section of the PEO/P2VP/LiClO4 blend and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results show that LiClO4 could act as a compatibilizer in the blend.

Poly(amide-6-b-ethylene oxide)/[Bmim][Tf2N] blend membranes for carbon dioxide separation

Poly（amide-6-b-ethylene oxide）（Pebax1657）/1-butyl-3-methylimidazo-lium bis[trifluoromethyl）sulfonyl]-imide（[Bmim][Tf2N]） blend membranes with different [Bmim][Tf2N] contents were prepared via solution casting and solvent evaporation method. The permeation properties of the blend membranes for CO2, N2,CH4 and H2 were studied, and the physical properties were characterized by differential scanning calorimeter（DSC） and X-ray diffraction（XRD）. Results showed that [Bmim][Tf2N] was dispersed as amorphous phase in the blend membranes, which caused the decrease of Tg（PE） and crystallinity（PA）. With the addition of [Bmim][Tf2N], the CO2 permeability increased and reached up to approximately 286 Barrer at 40 wt%[Bmim][Tf2N], which was nearly double that of pristine Pebax1657 membrane. The increase of CO2 permeability may be attributed to high intrinsic permeability of [Bmim][Tf2N], the increase of fractional free of volume（FFV） and plasticization effect. However, the CO2 permeability reduced firstly when the [Bmim][Tf2N]content was below 10 wt%, which may be due to that the small ions of [Bmim][Tf2N] in the gap of polymer chain inhibited the flexibility of polymer chain; the interaction between Pebax1657 and [Bmim][Tf2N]decreased the content of EO units available for CO2 transport and led to a more compact structure. For Pebax1657/[Bmim][Tf2N] blend membranes, the permeabilities of N2, H2 and CH4decreased with the increase of feed pressure due to the hydrostatic pressure effect, while CO2 permeability increased with the increase of feed pressure for that the CO2-induced plasticization effect was stronger than hydrostatic pressure effect.

H_2/CO_2 Gas Transport Performance in Poly(Ethylene Oxide) Reverse-selective Membrane with Star-like Structures

A series of poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO) membranes with star-like structures for CO_2/H_2 separation were prepared by the photo-polymerization method. The structure of PEO membrane was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR). The thermal property and inter-segmental distance of polymer chain were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and wide-angle X-ray diffraction, respectively. The density was determined by hydrostatic weighing method. The gas permeability, solubility and diffusivity of CO_2 and H_2 were investigated in the star-like PEO membranes. The relationship between gas permeation performances and physical properties was also discussed. The membrane exhibits outstanding CO_2 permeability(about 9.7×10^(-11) cm^3(STP) cm/cm^2/s/Pa) and CO_2/H_2 selectivity(about 11) compared with other membranes.

In-situ Observation of the Growth of Fibrous and Dendritic Crystals in Quasi-2-dimensional Poly(ethylene oxide) Ultrathin Films

Crystal growth processes of poly（ethylene oxide） were followed from the original nucleation sites by using atomic force microscopy. Two distinct quasi-2-dimensional crystals about 4 nm thick were obtained from as-spun polymer ultrathin films： fibrous crystals, generated by the sheafing field via spin-coating, coexist with con- ventional dendrites. The growth of the two structures is dominated by diffusion limited aggregation, though the growth rate of the fibrous crystals is around one order of magnitude faster than that of the dendrites. The fibrous crystals are more stable than the dendritic ones.

The interphasial degradation of 4.2 V-class poly(ethylene oxide)-based solid batteries beyond electrochemical voltage limit

Solid-state polymer electrolytes(SPEs)have attracted increasing attention due to good interfacial contact,light weight,and easy manufacturing.However,the practical application of SPEs such as the most widely studied poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO)in high-energy solid polymer batteries is still challenging,and the reasons are yet elusive.Here,it is found that the mismatch between PEO and 4.2 V-class cathodes is beyond the limited electrochemical window of PEO in the solid Li Ni_(1/3)Mn_(1/3)Co_(1/3)O_(2)(NMC)-PEO batteries.The initial oxidation of PEO initiates remarkable surface reconstruction of NMC grains in solid batteries that are different from the situation in liquid electrolytes.Well-aligned nanovoids are observed in NMC grains during the diffusion of surface reconstruction layers towards the bulk in solid batteries.The substantial interphasial degradation,therefore,blocks smooth Li+transport across the NMC-PEO interface and causes performance degradation.A thin yet effective Li F-containing protection layer on NMC can effectively stabilize the NMC-PEO interface with a greatly improved lifespan of NMC|PEO|Li batteries.This work deepens the understanding of degradations in high-voltage solid-state polymer batteries.

Preparation And Characterization of a New Blend of Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) And Poly(ethylene glycol)

COPOLYMERIZATION OF ETHYLENE WITH 1-OCTENE USING Et(Ind)_2ZrCl_2/MAO CATALYST

Copolymerization of ethylene/1-octene was carried out in toluene withvarious concentrations of comonomer in the feed using Et(Ind)_2ZrCl_2/MAO (methyl alu-minoxane) as catalyst. It was found that with the increase of 1-octene concentration in thefeed the content of 1-octene in the copolymer increases, while the density, melting point,crystallinity and intrinsic viscosity of copolymer decrease. A copolymer with very lowdensity, containing 11.5 mol% of 1-octene (VLLDPE) can be produced with this catalystsystem. The effect of temperature and zirconium aluminum mole ratio of the catalyst onthe copolymerization was also investigated. The results of ^(13)C NMR determination of thecopolymer showed that the 1-octene units in the copolymer are principally isolated.

Preparation of Spherical MgCl_2/SiO_2/THF-Supported Late-Transition Metal Catalysts for Ethylene Polymerization

A facile and user friendly technique to immobilize the late-transition metal complexes on spherical MgCl2/SiO2/THF support has been developed. The spherical MgCl2/SiO2/THF-supported late-transition metal catalysts 2,6-bis-[1-(2,6-dimethylphenylimino)ethyl]pyridine iron(II) dichloride(SC-A) and 1,4-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)- acenaphthene diimine nickel(II) dibromide(SC-B) for ethylene polymerization has been prepared by spray-drying technique using tetrahydrofuran suspension containing MgCl2, SiO2 and late-transition metal complexes. The catalysts were characterized by BET, XRD, SEM and the polymers were analyzed using GPC, DSC and 13C-NMR. The test results show that spray-drying is a very effective method for immobilizing late-transition metal catalysts for ethylene polymerization. Among six kinds of cocatalysts for olefin polymerization, TMA and TEA were confirmed to be more effective than other compounds for the ethylene polymerization system using the catalyst SC-A. For the case of the catalyst SC-B, DEAC showed the best performance as cocatalysts in ethylene polymerization. The replication of the catalyst morphology was found in the resultant polyethylene.

MgCl_2·6H_2O-BASED ZIRCONOCENE CATALYST FOR ETHYLENE POLYERIZATION

Several supported zirconocene catalysts were prepared by using MgCl_2·6H_2O as a precursor forproducing an active support. Such catalysts combined with methylaluminoxane (MAO) obtained by reactingMgCl_2·6H_2O with AlMe_3 show good activity for ethylene polymerization similar to that of anhydrousMgCl_2 supported zirconocene catalyst.

Effect of poly(ethylene glycol) molecular weight on CO_2/N_2 separation performance of poly(amide-12-b-ethylene oxide)/poly(ethylene glycol) blend membranes

Membranes from block copolymer poly(amide-12-b-ethylene oxide)(Pebax1074) and its blends with different molecular weight poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG)(200, 400, 600, 1500, 4600 and 8000) were prepared. The thermal properties and structures of Pebax1074/PEG blend membranes were characterized by DSC and SEM, and the gas permeation properties of CO_2 and N_2 were also investigated at different temperatures. For Pebax1074/PEG blend membranes with low molecular weight PEG(MW≤ 600), higher gas permeabilities than Pebax1074 were achieved. The permeability increased with the increase of PEG molecular weight. The addition of low molecular weight PEG resulted in decrease in activation energy of permeation. For Pebax1074/PEG blend membranes with high molecular weight PEG(MW≥ 1500), due to the melt of PEO phase crystals, the gas permeation properties of blend membranes were temperaturedependent, which could be divided into crystalline region, transition region and amorphous region according to two different transition temperatures. PEG molecular weight and operation temperature determined different gas permeation properties of Pebax1074/PEG blend membranes in three regions. The activation energies of permeation in crystalline region were larger than those in amorphous region.
