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.

Flotation of kaolinite with dodecyl tertiary amines

The flotation of kaolinite using a series of tertiary amines （N,N-dimethyl-dodecyl amine （DRN）, N,N-diethyl-dodecyl amine （DEN）, N,N-dipropyl-dodecyl amine （DPN） and N,N-dibenzyl-bodecyl amine （DBN）） was investigated. The results show that the maximum recoveries of kaolinite for DEN, DPN and DRN are 93%, 88% and 84%, respectively, but that of DBN is very low. On the basis of zeta potential and FT-IR spectra, the ionization of surface hydroxyl and isomorphic exchange of surface ions account for the charging mechanisms of kaolinite surface. The adsorption mechanism of tertiary amines on kaolinite surface is mainly electrostatic. The isoelectric point （IEP） of kaolinite increases from 3.4 to some more positive points after the interaction of kaolinite with the four tertiary amines. The FT-IR spectra of kaolinite change with the presence of some new sharp shapes belonging to the tertiary amines. The inductive electronic effects and space-steric effects of -CH3, -C2H5, -C3H7 and -C7H7 bonding to N atom result in different collecting power of the four tertiary amines.

Application of Tertiary Amine Cationic Polyacrylamide with High Cationic Degree in Salt-free Dyeing of Reactive Dyes

Tertiary amine cationic polyacrylamide with high cationization degree was used as a new cationic agent to pretreat cotton with dip-pad-bake method. The obtained cationic cotton was dyed with reactive dyes in the ab-sence of electrolyte. The effects of the characteristics of the cationic agent and the pretreatment conditions on dye-ability of reactive dye were investigated. The results showed that the fixation and K/S values of the reactive dyes on the cationic cotton were improved compared with those on the untreated one in the presence of salt. Tests on fast-ness properties of the dyed cotton and fabric quality of the pretreated cotton were carried out and the results showed that wash and rub fastness of the salt-free dyeing were both satisfactory. And anti-crease property,tensile and tear strength,and handling of the cationic cotton were also good compared with that of the untreated one.

SOLVENT EXTRACTION OF Fe(Ⅲ) FROM SULFATE SOLUTIONS WITH TERTIARY AMINE

The tertiary amine can be used to extract Fe(Ⅲ) very effectively in the pH range resulting in partial hydrolysis of Fe^(3+) ions.The iron extracted into the organic phase can be stripped rather easily with dilute H_2SO_4 or even with H_2O.Fe(Ⅲ) is extracted into the tertiary amine sulfate solution in the form of[(R_3NH)_2Fe(OH)(SO_4)_2]_2 complex by adduct formation.Equa- tion was derived to represent the chemical reactions involved during extraction.From the infrared spectrum studies on the extraction species in waxy solid form separated from the so- lution,sulfate group is a bidentate ligand to the iron atom.The extraction species has been considered to contain (FeOH)_2 unit based on the ultra violet spectra.The possible structure of the extraction species has been proposed.

Enhancing CO_(2)capture of an aminoethylethanolamine-based non-aqueous absorbent by using tertiary amine as a proton-transfer mediator:From performance to mechanism

Non-aqueous absorbents(NAAs)have attracted increasing attention for CO_(2)capture because of their great energy-saving potential.Primary diamines which can provide high CO_(2)absorption loading are promising candidates for formulating NAAs but suffer disadvantages in regenerability.In this study,a promising strategy that using tertiary amines(TAs)as proton-transfer mediators was proposed to enhance the regenerability of an aminoethylethanolamine(AEEA,diamine)/dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO)(A/D)NAA.Surprisingly,some employed TAs such as N,N-diethylaminoethanol(DEEA),N,N,N’,N’’,N’’-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine(PMDETA),3-dimethylamino-1-propanol(3DMA1P),and N,N-dimethylethanolamine(DMEA)enhanced not only the regenerability of the A/D NAA but also the CO_(2)absorption performance.Specifically,the CO_(2)absorption loading and cyclic loading were increased by about 12.7%and 15.5%-22.7%,respectively.The TA-enhanced CO_(2)capture mechanism was comprehensively explored via nuclear magnetic resonance technique and quantum chemical calculations.During CO_(2)absorption,the TA acted as an ultimate proton acceptor for AEEA-zwitterion and enabled more AEEA to form carbamate species(AEEACOO-)to store CO_(2),thus enhancing CO_(2)absorption.For CO_(2)desorption,the TA first provided protons directly to AEEACOO-as a proton donor;moreover,it functioned as a proton carrier and facilitated the low-energy step-wise proton transfer from protonated AEEA to AEEACOO-.Consequently,the presence of TA made it easier for AEEACOO-to obtain protons to decompose,resulting in enhanced CO_(2)desorption.In a word,introducing the TA as a proton-transfer mediator into the A/D NAA enhanced both the CO_(2)absorption performance and the regenerability,which was an efficient way to“kill two birds with one stone”.

An Effective Method to Improve the Performance of Fixed Carrier Membrane via Incorporation of C02-selective Adsorptive Silica Nanopartlcles

Fixed carrier membrane exhibits attractive CO2 permeance and selectivity due to its transport mechanism of reaction selectivity （facilitated transport）. However, its performance needs improvement to meet cost targets for CO2 capture. This study attempts to develop membranes with multiple permselective mechanisms in order to enhance CO2 separation performance of fixed carder membrane. In this study, a novel membrane with multiplepermselective mechanisms of solubility selectivity and reaction selectivity was developed by incorporating CO2-selective adsorptive silica nanoparticles in situ into the tertiary amine containing polyamide membrane formed by interfacial polymerization （IP）. Various techniques were employed to characterize the polyamide and polyam-ide-silica composite membranes. The TGA result shows that nanocomposite membranes exhlbit superior-thermal stability than pure polyamide membranes. In addition, gas permeation experiments show that both nanocomposite membranes have larger CO2 permeance than pure polyamide membranes. The enhanced CO2/N2 separation performance for nanocomposite membranes is mainly due to the thin film thickness, and multiple permselective mechanisms of solubility selectivity and reaction selectivity.

Polymers with tertiary amine groups for drug delivery and bioimaging

Over the past decade, biopolymers have gained great interests especially in biomedicine due to their physical properties and/or chemical structures changes in response to external stimuli in a certain time fiarne or at a specific location. Among them, poly（β-amino ester）s, methacrylate-based block copolymers and polypeptide with tertiary amine groups have been extensively studied and exhibit pH sensitive properties due to the protonation of tertiary amine groups. The pH values in normal organs, tissues, and subcellular compartments are always different from those in pathological tissues. These interesting properties allow their applications in a variety of fields ranging from diagnosis and therapeutics of diseases. Here, we review the recent progress of poly（β-amino ester）s, methacrylate-based block copolymers and polypeptide with tertiary amine groups and their applications in drug delivery and bioimaging.

Olefin-linked covalent organic frameworks with twisted tertiary amine knots for enhanced ultraviolet detection

Though Olefin-linked covalent organic frameworks(oCOFs)possess excellentπ-electron delocalization,the barely reversible olefin linkage brings challenges for oCOFs’synthesis and functionalization.Here,we synthesize new oCOFs with tertiary amine knots which have twisted configuration and electron-donating nature.Investigation into the structural variation and photoelectric performance shows that the twisted configuration of oCOF-TFPA could favor to the intramolecular charge transfer process and reduce the pos-sibility of aggregation-caused quenching.Photoelectrical measurements and electric band structure cal-culation both verify the superiority of this oCOFs’structure in photoelectric sensing.
