Flash pyrolysis of MnTC（ [Mn2（TNR）2（CHZ）2（H2O）4]·2H2O） and NiCT（ [Ni（CHZ）3]（TNR）·5H2O） is conducted by using T-jump/FTIR spectroscopy under 0.1 MPa Ar atmosphere.

The mole fractions of the individual products in the pyrolysis gas mixture are described as a function of time. Results show that NiCT appears to produce more N2O, NH3 and HONO upon flash pyrolysis, thus secondary oxidation reduction reactions may take place to a certain extent during its thermal decomposition, which in turn leads to unsteady combustion and possibly to failure of the device. While H2O and CO2 are the major two gas products of flash pyrolysis of MnTC, it warrants further in-depth trials for the adoption in detonators as coo-friendly and chemically compatible primary explosive. The two compounds both liberate volatile metal carbonate, oxide and isocyanate compounds.展开更多

In this study, novel hybrid films have been synthesized by incorporation of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), gelatin, and gelatin with glycerin along with different concentrations of pre-prepared hydroxyapatite (HAP) by solution casting method at room temperature in a biosafety cabinet. Glutaraldehyde has been added as a crosslinker in this whole procedure. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) have been conducted to observe and compare the structural and chemical stability of the synthesized hybrid film properties. The FTIR results and X-Ray Diffraction analyses confirmed the chemical interactions between HAP, PVA, gelatin, and glycerin have occurred. The crystallinity of HAP also remains in all the prepared hybrid film samples that are observed in XRD. It is expected that these newly synthesized hybrid films could be a better opportunity for various sectors of tissue engineering such as skin, bone, tendon, and cartilage. These synthesized hybrid films can be suitable for wound healing covering. These studies could be a new scope for long-term drug delivery directly on wound sites in diabetic gangrene foot or burn patients as well as cartilage or joint replacement therapy.展开更多
