Miscibility, Crystallization, and Rheological Behavior of Solution Casting Poly（3-hydroxybutyrate）/poly（ethylene succinate） Blends Probed by Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Rheology, and Optical Microscope Techniques

The miscibility and crystallization of solution casting biodegradable poly（3-hydroxybuty- rate）/poly（ethylene succinate） （PHB/PES） blends was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, rheology, and optical microscopy. The blends showed two glass transition temperatures and a depression of melting temperature of PHB with compositions in phase diagram, which indicated that the blend was partially miscible. The morphology observation supported this result. It was found that the PHB and PES can crystallize simultaneously or upon stepwise depending on the crystallization temperatures and compositions. The spherulite growth rate of PHB increased with increasing of PES content. The influence of compositions on the spherulitic growth rate for the partially miscible polymer blends was discussed.

电容器用双向拉伸聚4-甲基-1-戊烯(BOPMP)薄膜开发与应用

聚4-甲基-1-戊烯(PMP)是一种具有等规结构的新型热塑性塑料,PMP为结晶性树脂,熔点在235℃~240℃之间,耐热性好,可在高温下使用,并具有卓越的电气绝缘和介电性能。与聚丙烯树脂相比,熔点高60℃,介电常数、介电损耗相近。随着我国电子工业的发展,PMP的用量在近年来有大幅的增长。目前世界上只有日本三井化学株式会社生产,由于产量有限、售价较高,限制了PMP在国内的应用。为此本文尝试采用双向拉伸的方法,试制聚4-甲基-1-戊烯(BOPMP)薄膜,并加工成金属化膜,试制电容器,最后对电容器的性能进行相应测试评价。采用不同牌号原料生产BOPMP薄膜,其电压击穿强度差别较大,不同频率下的BOPMP薄膜电容器损耗角正切值、介电常数均与BOPP薄膜电容器接近,但其高温下的性能有待进一步验证。如何提升BOPMP薄膜电压击穿强度及其耐热性,开发出适宜于双向拉伸的PMP粒子原料,生产出高质量的BOPMP电容薄膜,将是未来重点研究的方向。

Fast electron transfer and enhanced visible light photocatalytic activity by using poly-o-phenylenediamine modified AgCl/g-C_3N_4 nanosheets

Exfoliation of bulk graphitic carbon nitride(g‐C3N4)into two‐dimensional(2D)nanosheets is one of the effective strategies to improve its photocatalytic properties so that the 2D g‐C3N4 nanosheets(CN)have larger specific surface areas and more reaction sites.In addition,poly‐o‐phenylenediamine(PoPD)can improve the electrical conductivity and photocatalytic activity of semiconductor materials.Here,the novel efficient composite PoPD/AgCl/g‐C3N4 nanosheets was first synthesized by a precipitation reaction and the photoinitiated polymerization approach.The obtained photocatalysts have larger specific surface areas and could achieve better visible‐light response.However,silver chloride(AgCl)is susceptible to agglomeration and photocorrosion.The PoPD/AgCl/CN composite exhibits an extremely high photocurrent density,which is three times that of CN.Obviously enhanced photocatalytic activities of PoPD/AgCl/g‐C3N4 are revealed through the photodegradation of tetracycline.The stability of PoPD/AgCl/CN is demonstrated based on four cycles of experiments that reveal that the degradation rate only decreases slightly.Furthermore,.O2^-and h+are the main active species,which are confirmed through a trapping experiment and ESR spin‐trap technique.Therefore,the prepared PoPD/AgCl/CN can be considered as a stable photocatalyst,in which PoPD is added as a charge carrier and acts a photosensitive protective layer on the surface of the AgCl particles.This provides a new technology for preparing highly stable composite photocatalysts that can effectively deal with environmental issues.

Fabrication of Microspheres Based on Poly(4-butyltriphenylamine) Blends with Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Block Copolymer by Solvent Evaporation Method

Micron-sized polymer particles from single poly(4-butyltriphenylamine) (PBTPA) homopolymer, binary polymer blend [PBTPA/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)], and ternary polymer blend (PBTPA/PBTPA-b-PMMA/PMMA) via a solvent evaporation method, and the surface morphologies and inside structure of resulting particles were investigated. Spherical homopolymer particles with smooth surface were resulted from PBTPA with low molecular weight. In the case of binary blends (PBTPA/PMMA = 1/1), Janus (low molecular weight) and dumbbell (high molecular weight) type morphologies were observed. The particles based on ternary blends containing PBTPA-b-PMMA showed core-shell type morphologies (PMMA;core, PBTPA;shell). Degree of engulfment of PMMArich domain increased with the content of the block copolymer. The decrease of domain size was not observed although the block copolymer had a suitable structure as a compatibilizer for the blend. It was also found that the initial concentration of polymer solution had an effect on the final morphology.

A Study on Preparation and Use of Nano Poly Pyrrole and Nano Poly (3,4-Ethylenedioxythiophene) Coated Glassy Carbon Electrode For The Determination of Antihistamine in Pharmaceutical and Urine Sample

Pheniramine maleate (PA), an antihistamine, was determined by Differential Pulse Stripping voltammetry using nano polypyrrole (Ppy) and nano poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) modified glassy carbon electrodes. The cyclic voltammetric behavior of pheniramine was studied in aqueous acidic, neutral and alkaline conditions. One well-defined oxidation peak was observed in the cyclic voltammograms at all pHs. The influence of pH, scan rate and concentration revealed irreversible electron transfer and the oxidation was diffusion controlled adsorption. The SEM analysis confirmed good accumulation of PA on the electrode surface. A systematic study of influence of various experimental parameters that affect the stripping voltammetric response was carried out and the maximum peak current conditions were arrived at. Calibration was made under maximum peak current conditions. The range of study was 0.05 to 0.4 μg/mL on Ppy/GCE and 0.025 to 0.4μg/mL on PEDOT/GCE and the lower limit of determination were 0.035μg/mL on Ppy/GCE and 0.016μg/mL on PEDOT/GCE. The suitability of the method for the determination of PA in pharmaceutical preparations and urine samples was also ascertained.

Fabrication of Poly(4-vinylpyridine) Nanofiber and Fluorescent Poly(4-vinylpyridine)/Porphyrin Nanofiber by Electrospinning

Poly（4-vinylpyridine）（P4-VP） nanofiber and fluoresent poly（4-vinylpyridine）/porphyrin（P4-VP/TPPA） nanofiber were respectively prepared by electrospinning. The effect of the concentration of P4-VP/dimethylformamide （DMF） electrospinning solutions on the morphology of P4-VP nanofiber was investigated and it was found that the average diameter of the nanofiber of P4-VP/DMF increased with the increase of the concentration of the spinning solution. After the addition of TPPA to the P4-VP/DMF spinning solution, the diameter of P4-VP/TPPA nanofiber became even due to the increase of the conductivity of the P4-VP/DMF-TPPA solution. The photoluminescent（PL） spectral analysis indicates that the emission peak position of P4-VP/TPPA nanofiber is almost the same as that of pure TPPA at about 650 nm without peak shift, and when it was stored for 20 days, the emission peak of P4-VP/TPPA nanofiber is also at 650 nm, indicating that the fluorescent property of P4-VP/TPPA nanofiber is stable. Fourier-transform iufrared（FTIR） spectrum confirms the chemical composition of the resulting P4-VP/TPPA composite nanofiber.
