Abstract:
The clean and effective oxidant,hydrogen peroxide,was used to degrade alginate in order to prepare its low molecular products,and the effects of pH,temperature,amount of H2O2 and metal ions on the degradation were investigated.The degradation rate increased with the decrease of solution pH,and the increases of reaction temperature and oxidant dosage.Low molecular alginate could be obtained effectively with pH of 5.3,temperature of 50 ℃ and H2O2 of 0.5% for 2 h reaction.The reaction could be also significantly accelerated by 4 mg/L Cu2+ or Fe2+.GPC analysis showed that the average molecular mass of alginate was decreased and the molecular mass distribution was broadened.It can be inferred from FTIR that the degradation was caused by OH radicals produced by hydrogen peroxide,which resulted in the breakage of the glycosidic C(1)—O—C(4) bond.

Abstract:
Low-molecular-mass CSM was prepared by degrading CSM,and it was used to modify silicon nitride nanoparticles(Si3N4).The structure and surface properties of modified nano-Si3N4 were systematically characterized by FTIR,TEM,TGA,dispersion stabilization and contact angle measurement.The result shows that chemical modification is primary,the chemical and physical usage efficiencies of the macromolecular coupling are 54% and 29% respectively.The surface free energy of modified nano-Si3N4 has been decreased from 142.6 J/M2 to 66.89 J/M2,resulting in a good dispersibility of nano-Si3N4 in chloroform.

Abstract:
We reported the biomimetic synthesis of hybrid silica nanoparticles mediated with linear cationic poly(acrylamide-co-dimethylaminoethylacrylate-methyl chloride)[poly(AM-co-DMC)].The hybrid silica nanoparticles were simply synthesized by stirring a mixture of the aqueous solution of poly(AM-co-DMC) with tetramethoxysilane(TMOS) at ambient temperature for typically 30 min.The hybrid nanoparticles were well characterized with FT-IR,TEM,TEM-EDX and TGA.The representative hybrid nanoparticles were roughly spherical,with an average diameter of around 15 nm and a good monodispersity.EDX analysis,FT-IR and TGA analyses have confirmed that the hybrid particle is composed of polyamines and inorganic silica.In addition,we also found that the formation of hybrid nanoparitlces depended on the mineralization reaction time for silica deposition.

Abstract:
Carbonic anhydrase(CA) was immobilized onto the surface of hollow fiber membrane of polymethyl pentene(PMP) without any active functional groups via sulfosuccinimidyl [perfluoroazidobenzamido] ethyl-1,3-dithiopropionate(SFAD),a photoactivatable heterobifunctional crosslinker.Using p-nitrophenyl acetate(p-NPA) as a substrate,the activity,concentration,storage stability and re-usability of immobilized CA were studied by ultraviolet spectrophotometry.The preliminary data showed that CA could be successfully immobilized onto PMP surface;covalently immobilized CA(CACI) had catalysis activity.Its concentration on PMP surface increased with the increase of the SFAD concentration,and reached a maximum of 0.414 U/m2,which was 87.3% of the theoretical concentration of CA on PMP surface in monolayer,and the reusability was much better than physically adsorbed CA(CAPA): the activity of CAPA on PMP surface was 0 after washing once,but CACI retained around 59% of its activity after washing 9 times;CACI showed higher storage stability compared to free CA in solution at 37 ℃: the soluble enzyme lost about 90% activity,but CACI lost only 60% activity in 16 days.

Abstract:
Block copolymer surfactants of TETA-DGEPG-EPON828,TETA-DGEPG-EPON834,TETA-DGEPG-EPON1001 were synthesized and characterized.The hydrophile-lipophile balance(HLB) values were 16.6,15.8 and 13.0 respectively obtained by calculation.The cloud points were 91.0 ℃,89.0 ℃ and 81.0 ℃,respectively.The surface tensions of the obtained surfactants in aqueous solution at 25 ℃ were investigated.The results show that they could reduce the surface tension in aqueous solution from 74 mN/m to 36.4~39.4 mN/m.From the study on the physicochemical properties,it shows that TETA-DGEPG-EPON834 had a good water-solubility and favorable surface performance.TETA-DGEPG-EPON834 can be used as phase inversion emulsifiers to prepare stable aqueous amine dispersion of EPON828-TETA adduct terminated with CARDURA E10,and the average particle size is well below 1 μm.

Abstract:
New europium complexes(C8H15O2)x(C12H23O2)yEu,which is soluble in MMA monomer,were synthesized with caprytlic acid(C8H15O2) and lauric acid(C12H23O2) as the first ligand by saponification method.Photoluminescent PMMA containing rare earth complexes AxByEu/PMMA(A=—C8H15O2,B=—C12H23O2,x,y was their mol ratio) were prepared by bulk polymerization.The effects of different second ligands(carbazole,dmbp,phen,HTTA) on the flourescent properties of the polymers were studied.Then AxByEu/HTTA/PMMA was prepared with ligand HTTA.The structures and fluorescence properties of the complexes and polymers containing europium were investigated by IR,UV and Fluorescence spectra.Results indicate that the polymers obtained emit strong characteristic luminescence of Eu3+ ions.Notably even if the mass fraction of HTTA was 0.02%,it could enhance the characteristic red luminescence of(C8H15O2)3Eu/HTTA/PMMA greatly,while the transparency of the polymer was not affected.

Abstract:
Two mild,efficient and practical methods to synthesize O-chloro-benzoquinonyl C-glycopyranosides are reported.One is that,using NH4NO3 as a catalyst,aryl C-glycosides 1a and 1b were chlorinated by N-chlorosuccinimide to afford O-chlorinated compounds 2a and 2b in high regioselectivity.The corresponding benzoquinonyl C-glycosides 3a and 3b were obtained after oxidization with cerium ammonium nitrate(CAN) in an overall yield of 88% and 84%,respectively.The other is that,under the catalysis of BF3·Et2O,O-chloro-hydroquinonyl C-glycosides 5a and 5b can also be obtained through addition reaction and hydrolyzation involving benzoquinonyl C-glycosides and Me3SiCl in an overall yield of 82% and 76%,respectively.Additionally,corresponding hydroquinone and benzoquinone compounds can be transformed to each other through oxidation and reduction reactions.

Abstract:
A new carbazole derivative,9-isooctyl-3,6-carbazole dicrylic acid,was synthesized and characte-rized by 1H NMR,13C NMR,IR and MS.UV,one-photon excited fluorescence spectra and solid fluorescence of the intermediate and title product in different polar solvents were investigated.The results show that the target product had good UV absorption characteristic and single-photon fluorescence effect at 300~500 nm with increasing polarity of the solvent.With the ethanol solution of Rhodamine B as a reference,we calculated the quantum yields of the target product in different solvents to be more than 0.19.So the compound could be a potential luminescent material.

Abstract:
Chlorobenzene nitration was carried out with supported heteropoly acids as catalysts and N2O5 as nitrating agent.Many factors were investigated,such as kinds of heteropoly acids and carriers,loading of heteropoly acid,number of catalyst used,and so on.Results showed the nitration of chlorobenzene with N2O5 is an acid catalyzed reaction,and the supported heteropoly acids can highly enhance the nitration ability of N2O5;the catalyst can be directly reused after recycle,and its activity was not obviously decreased.Under the optimum conditions,the yield of the nitration was 26%,and the para-selectivity was up to 68.8%,which indicates that N2O5 is a prospective nitration agent,and it can replace the concentrated mineral acid as the catalyst which is one of the most environmentally harmful processes,and meets the requirement of green environmental protection.

Two compounds,[Cu(im)4SO4]n(1) and [Cu(bpy)(H2O)2SO4]n(2)(im=imidazole,bpy=2,2'-bipyridine),were synthesized in ethanol/DMF systems with HNO3 in 67% and 82% yields,respectively.The relation between the crystal structure and acidity of the reaction system were investigated.As 0.35~0.6 mmol or 1.2~1.45 mmol HNO3 was added to the reaction system pure compound 1 or 2,respectively,was obtained.And they were further characterized by elemental analysis,IR,UV-Vis reflection spectra,inductively coupled plasma(ICP),TGA,X-ray powder diffraction and X-ray crystallography diffraction.The crystal structure analyses revealed that they all belong to the monoclinic system with space group C2/C,possessing chalcanthite-like configuration.Compound 1 exhibits a 1D zigzag chain structure,while 2 exhibits 1D linear chain,which is resulted from different ligands.UV-Vis reflection spectra of the two compounds indicated that the absorption bands in visible region are from the d-d transitions of copper(Ⅱ) ions and the absorption bands in ultraviolet region correspond to ligand→copper(Ⅱ) charge transfer and π→π* transition for compounds 1 and 2,respectively.

Abstract:
In a solution containing 8 g/L sodium hexametaphosphate and 5 g/L sodium silicate,the influences of current density,duty cycle,sample dimension and solution temperature on the growing rate of MAO coatings on 6061 aluminum alloy were investigated.The results indicate that under high current density and voltage on sample surface,the growing rate of the coating increases linearly at a rate of 1.425 0×10-9 m3/(min·A) with the increasing of current density due the ability of high voltage to break down the MAO coatings that are continuously oxidized.Duty cycle has no impact on the growing rate of the coating,and the growing rates of different duty cycles are approximately 0.50 μm/min,but the voltage rises slightly with decreasing duty cycle.Growing rates of different dimension samples are 0.31 μm/min,while voltage increases with the increase of the sample size.The rising of solution temperature enhances the dissociation degree of HSiO3- and H2PO32-,improving the conductions of solution and ion diffusivity,which increases the growing rate of coating,and the growing rates under 10 ℃,20 ℃and 30 ℃ are 0.35 μm/min,0.38 μm/min,0.41 μm/min,respectively.

Abstract:
MnO2 thin film was electrodeposited onto aligned carbon nanotubes(ACNTs) electrode in the electrolyte containing 0.2 mol/L Mn(CH3COO)2 and 0.1 mol/L Na2SO4 at pH=6.0.As observed by means of scanning electron microscopy,the resulting MnO2 film on those nanotubes exhibited hole-like microstru-cture.Such-prepared MnO2-modified ACNTs nanocomposite was then characterized by cyclic voltammograms,charge-discharge curve and electrochemical impedance measurements etc.,and it showed excellent capacitive behavior between 0~0.6 V(vs.Ag/AgCl) in 1 mol/L KCl aqueous solution.The specific capacitance of the ACNT electrode was calculated to be 16 F/g before the MnO2 film modification,and increased to 330 F/g after the MnO2 film deposition due to the special Faradic capacitance of MnO2.After scaning for 200 cycles,there was a little change for its cyclic voltammogram curve,indicating good reversible and capacitive property of the MnO2-ACNTs composite.

Abstract:
Nano-scale nickel hydroxide was synthesized by micro-emulsion and its structure,surface morpho-logy and electrochemical performance were tested and analyzed by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),galvanostatic charge/discharge,cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.The results show that nano-scale nickel hydroxide turned to different morphologies after hydrothermal and micro-emulsion/hydrothermal modification.Though the results of the activation performance of unsettled and treated nano-scale nickel hydroxide were uniform,the discharging specific capacity of nano-scale nickel hydroxide was different.The discharging specific capacity of nano-scale nickel hydroxide,which underwent hydrothermal treatment at 140 ℃,was increased by 24.6 mA·h/g,while the nano-scale nickel hydroxide,which underwent micro-emulsion/hydrothermal treatment,was increased by 74.8 mA·h/g.The peak current of cyclic voltammetry also increased and the charge-transfer resistances decreased from 2.633 Ω to 2.464 Ω and 1.679 Ω respectively.

Abstract:
A novel amperometric penicillin immunosensor was prepared by co-immobilizing new methylene blue(NMB) and horseradish peroxidase(HRP)-labeled penicillin polyclonal antibody(Ab*) on a glassy carbon electrode(GCE) pretreated by electrochemical oxidation and tailored with glutaraldehyde(GA) as the cross-linker through covalent bonding.The quantitative determination of residual penicillin in chicken muscle was investigated through cyclic voltammetry.The experiment results showed that the dependence of current on the concentration of residual penicillin was linear in a range of 5~45 ng/g,and the correlation coefficient was 0.974 7,and the detection limit 1.90 ng/g.The test of the effect of precipitation showed that saturated ammonium sulfate was the best one among the three precipitators.Sample recovery rate was up to 74.5%.At the same time,interference experiment showed that the chicken cross-interference and interference from other components were small.Modified electrode had a good stability and can be used for the determination of penicillin in actual chicken samples.

Abstract:
An o-phenanthroline-substituted ruthenium complex,[Rubis(bipyridyl)(3,4,7,8-tetrachrolo-1,10-phenanthroline)](PF6)2,was synthesized and the structure of the complex was characterized by elemental analysis,IR spectroscopy and 1H NMR spectroscopy.The complex displayed absorption in the UV and visible regions,with a visible maximum absorption at 440 nm,a typical metal-to-ligand charge transfer(MLCT) transition.Photoluminescence emission also had the characteristics of MLCT transitions with the maxima wavelengths ranged from 630 to 649 nm depending on the solvent.The electrochemiluminescence(ECL) of the complex was found to be less dependant on pH,which was distinctly different from that of the well known ruthenium tris(bipyridine) complex.Furthermore the background ECL signal of the complex did not increase even under a strong alkaline condition.

Abstract:
A novel sample introduction system for the determination of Sb by electrochemical hydride generation in a phosphate buffer solution(PBS) was developed.It was found that using neutral PBS as electrolytic solution could markedly increase the fluorescence intensity of Sb(Ⅲ) and suppress totally the signal of Sb(Ⅴ).The valence analysis of Sb could be carried out in buffer solution.Moreover,it has some merits like reducing self-erodible effect of the cathode material,prolonging the lifetime of the cell and increasing the signal stability.The traditional thin-type cell was improved and a new cell with screw-thread was developed.Assembly time of the disk cell was only about 1 min,shortened largely compared with that for the traditional cells of about 20 min.Furthermore,sealing performance of this cell was better than that of the traditional electrolytic.The detection limit(3σ) and the precisions(n=11) for 20 μg/L Sb(Ⅲ) were 0.038 μg/L Sb(Ⅲ) and 3.9%,respectively.This system has been applied satisfactorily to the determination of Sb in soil samples.
