      Abstract:In this paper, ethyl-bridged periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO) is modified with β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) using “grafting” method. As a contrast, β-CD modified mesoporous silicas SBA-15 is synthetized by the same method. Functionalized mesoporous PMO materials was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption–desorption measurements and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The adsorption properties of the pollutants in water, phenylamine and p-benzenediol, are investigated. For β-CD modified ethyl-bridged periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO-CD), the results show that the adsorption quantity of phenylamine was 1.54 mg/g, which was reduced due to the β-CD modification comparing with PMO. But the adsorption quantity of p-benzenediol was 12.94 mg/g, which was improved greatly. Therefore, PMO-CD has the potential applications in the treatment of the water pollutants.

      Abstract:CuO-ZnO/Al2O3 catalysts modified with magnesium oxide and boron oxide were prepared by impregnation.XRD,XPS,BET and TPR methods were used to characterize the distribution and chemical configuration of CuO impregnated on the catalyst.The results show that the surface area of catalysts increased with boron oxide added,and that boron oxide acted as structural promoter and electron promoter in CuO-ZnO/Al2O3 catalysts.Boron oxide could modify the interaction between copper oxide and the supporter,which is conducive to the disperse of copper oxide and stability of Cu species in defect of electron.The disperse of copper oxide on the catalyst increased with magnesium oxide added. With a weight loading of 6% of CuO in the catalyst which modified with boron oxide the conversion rate of glycerol was up to 100%,whereas the selectivity for 1,2-propanediol was over 94%.

      Abstract:A low cost superabsorbent resin, PWR-g-PAA/PGS, based on the potato waste residue (PWR, particle size>180 mesh) as the source of cellulose and starch, was prepared by free radical graft copolymerization of partly-neutralized acrylic acid (AA) on the chain of PWR mixed with palygorskite (PGS) in aqueous solution. The copolymerization was carried out using N, N?methylene double acrylamide (MBA) as cross-linking agent and potassium persulfate (KSB) as initiator. The morphology, structure and thermal stability of the polymers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA). The water-absorption capability of the polymers was also determined. The results showed that the superabsorbent resin bears the maximum absorption amount of 41.0 g/g for 0.9% NaCl solution, 136.0 g/g for tap water, 538.6 g/g for distilled water. Water retention rate was 96.1%, Gel strength was 11.3 kPa when the total adding amount of palygorskite and potato waste residue accounts for 17.5% in PWR-g-PAA/PGS. The swelling dynamics model of the resin was non-Fickon diffusion.

      Abstract:Cobalt-based composite aerogel was synthesized by sol-gel process and CO2 supercritical drying. The morphology of aerogel was evaluated by field-emmision scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), which suggest that the aerogel was made up of 3-D networks and the skeletal was composed of cobalt oxide colloidal particles with amorphous carbon. The N2 adsorption/desorption shows that the aerogel has high BET surface area of 177 m?g, average pore diameter about 4nm, which means the aerogel possesses the typical characteristic of mesopore. Then cobalt-based composite aerogel was annealed, and the crystal structure of Co3O4 aerogel was investigated by the XRD patterns, The N2 adsorption/desorption showed the aerogel with surface area about 54m2/g and the distribution of pore-diameter around 7nm.

      Abstract:Bola amphiphiles (ArN-n-NAr, n = 4, 6, 8, 10) with quaternary ammonium headgroups have been synthesized. Results show considerable enhancement in the efficiency (C20) and the effectiveness (cmc) in surface tension reduction as well as the ability of micelle formation (cmc) in the mixed aqueous solutions. The minimum C20 value (0.076 mmol/L(n=4), 0.048 mmol/L(n=6), 0.046 mmol/L(n=8) and 0.026 mmol/L(n=10)) was obtained at 1=0.33 (1 represents the molar fraction of ArN-n-NAr) in the mixed aqueous solution. Compared with the pure SDS solution, the cmc of the mixed systems show significant decrease. For the ArN-10-NAr/SDS system, the cmc was decreased more than 9 times (from 2.40 mmol/L to 0.26 mmol/L). The length of ArN-n-NAr spacer in mixed solution was 0.635 nm (n=4), 0.889 nm (n=6), 1.143 nm (n=8) and 1.397 nm (n=10). The outer surface of the mixed adsorption layer at the air/water interface was totally composed by SDS while ArN-n-NAr was arranged at the sublayer neighboring the outside. The ArN-n-NAr molecules adopted lying (for n=4, 6, 8) or perpendicular (for n=10) pattern according to the spacer length between the two headgroups of Bola amphiphiles.

      Abstract:Cholesterol modified alginate (CSAD) was prepared by DCC/DMAP covalent attachment of hydrophobic cholesterol onto the nature polysaccharide alginate. And the nanocapsules loaded cyhalothrins were obtained by emulsification method. The structure and hydrophobic properties of the alginate derivative and the morphology and release properties of the nanocapsules were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR), fluorescence spectrum, dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and release studies. Experimental results showed that the degree of substitutions of CSAD were 5.3%~7.9% and their critical aggregation concentration were reduced from 1.23 mg/L to 0.26~0.63mg/L. With increasing degree of substitution, the hydrophobic group increased and the critical aggregation concentration reduced. The d50 of the drug-loaded nanocapsules were 576.4 ?7.4nm, and the Zeta potential value of drug-loaded nanocapsules were -32.3 ?0.6mV, which could exhibit excellent stability in aqueous solution. Compared with conventional microemulsions, the hydrogen bonds were key to CSAD to possess the Slow-Release properties.

      Abstract:9,10,12,13-Tetrahydroxyl stearic acid (THSA) was synthesized from natural linoleic acid by oxidation and hydrolysis, and the molecular structure was identified by FT-IR, ESI-MS and 1H-NMR. Sodium tetrahydroxyl stearate (STHS) thus was prepared from THSA by saponification, and Krafft point, calcium ion stability, lime soap dispersant requirement, surface tension, critical micelle concentration and foam properties of THSA were investigated and compared with those of sodium soaps of linoleic acid, oleic acid and stearic acid. The experimental results showed that STHS displayed unique lime soap dispersing power and calcium ion stability in hard water, and better solubility in cold water and at neutral pH condition superior to all the other tested sodium soaps. The polyhydroxyl characteristics give STHS the power to easily dissolve not only in hard water and at neutral pH condition against ordinary sodium soaps of all other fatty acids, but also in cold water against sodium soaps of saturated fatty acids, and inoxidizability against sodium soaps of unsaturated fatty acids. Therefore, STHS has the potential to act as the new soap-base surfactant formulating of neutral soaps, cold water soaps and hard water soaps.

      Abstract:The resolution of racemic 5-hydroxy-8-undecenoic acid δ-lactone (Jasmolactone) by packed column supercritical fluid chromatography (pSFC) was studied. First method development was carried out in an analytical scale. The chiral stationary phases (CSPs) of Chiralpak AD-H, Chiralcel OB-H, Chiralcel OD-H, and Chiralcel OJ-H, and the modifier solvents of methanol, ethanol, isopropanol and acetonitrile were screened. The parameters of column temperature, column pressure, content of modifier solvent in mobile phase, and flow rate of mobile phase were systematically investigated by single-factor and orthogonal experiments. The optimum conditions found were the CSP of Chiralcel OD-H, column temperature 31 ℃, column pressure 12 MPa, 2 % v/v modifier solvent of acetronile-methanol (7:3, v/v) in the mobile phase, and the flow rate of mobile phase in 1.0 mL/min, whereby resolution factor (Rs) achieved is 2.00. Then preparative separation was performed in the optimum conditions at a flow rate of 8 mL/min, total of 6.6 mg enantiomers were obtained from 10 mg racemers in 320 min in the recovery of 66 % and an optical purity of 100 % e. e. The present work demonstrated that resolution by pSFC was a good choice due to high efficiency when some micrograms of enantiomeric 5-hydroxy-8-undecenoic acid δ-lactone are to be prepared.
