The structure of SPCP was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR) and ~1H NMR spectra. The membranes showed moderate proton conductivities and much lower methanol permeability coefficients when compared to Nafion 117. Transmission electron microscopy(TEM) results indicated the well-defined phase separation between the locally and densely sulfonated units and hydrophobic units, which induced efficient proton conduction. In comparison with SPFPP membrane, the proton conductivities, oxidative stabilities and mechanical properties of crosslinked membranes remarkably were improved. The selectivity values of all the crosslinked membranes were also much higher than that of Nafion 117(0.74×10~5S· s/cm~3). These results suggested that the c SPFPP/SPCP membranes were promising candidate materials for proton exchange membrane in direct methanol fuel cells.展开更多

The thermal and flame-retarding properties of the TPU composites were evaluated by thermogravimetric(TG), limited oxygen index tests(LOI), and cone calorimeter test(CCT). The TPU composite achieved vertical burning(UL-94) V-0 grade and LOI value reached 29.2% when 10 wt% PZS-AHP was incorporated. Compared with those of pure TPU, the peak heat release rate(pHRR) and total heat release(THR) of TPU/10%PZS-AHP decreased by 82.2% and 42.5%, respectively.

The graft density and the graft length could be regulated by changing the bromination degree of the macroinitiator and the ATRP reaction time, respectively. The PP-g-PS copolymers readily underwent a regioselective sulfonation reaction, which occurred preferentially at the polystyrene sites, producing the sulfonated PP-g-PS copolymers with a range of ion exchange capacities. The resulting sulfonated PP-g-PS membranes prepared by solution casting showed high water uptake, low water swelling and considerable proton conductivity. They also exhibited good oxidative stability and high resistance to methanol crossover. Morphological studies of the membranes by transmission electron microscopy showed clear nanophase-separated structures resulted from hydrophobic polyphosphazene backbone and hydrophilic polystyrene sulfonic acid segments, indicating the formation of proton transferring tunnels. Therefore, these sulfonated copolymers may be candidate materials for proton exchange membranes in direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) applications.展开更多

The flame retardancy and thermal property of pure PET and flame-retarded PET composites were mainly investigated. The flame retardancy was investigated by limited oxygen index( LOI) and UL-94 vertical burning test. The results showed that the composites could achieved an increased UL-94 V-0 rating and LOI value 30. 2, when the content of FR-HCCP was just 1%. The pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry( Py-GC / MS) study demonstrated that introducing FR-HCCP into PET would prevent the polymer pyrolysis during heating. TGA analysis showed that the addition of FR-HCCP could improve the char formation of the system. Roman spectra showed the order degree of residue was increasing by adding the additive. The morphology and the chemical structure of the charred residue were detected by SEMand FTIR,respectively. Results demonstrated that a good barrier was formed by the char of the composite,which protected the inside of the composite during burning.展开更多

The results indicated that for PP-C, the M_w is 2.18×10~5 and the PDI is 1.96. PP-C was a kind of crystallized polymer with a crystallizing point of -2.0 ℃ and a melting point of 28 ℃. The conformational chirality of the PP-C molecules was studied using circular dichroism spectrum. It was found that in dilute THF solution, the biphenyl groups in the PP-C molecules twisted randomly. However, when the PP-C formed aggregates, the biphenyl groups tended to twist single-handedly, which was controlled by the adjacent chiral alkoxy groups.展开更多

The structure of SPCP was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR) and ~1H NMR spectra. The membranes showed moderate proton conductivities and much lower methanol permeability coefficients when compared to Nafion 117. Transmission electron microscopy(TEM) results indicated the well-defined phase separation between the locally and densely sulfonated units and hydrophobic units, which induced efficient proton conduction. In comparison with SPFPP membrane, the proton conductivities, oxidative stabilities and mechanical properties of crosslinked membranes remarkably were improved. The selectivity values of all the crosslinked membranes were also much higher than that of Nafion 117(0.74×10~5S· s/cm~3). These results suggested that the c SPFPP/SPCP membranes were promising candidate materials for proton exchange membrane in direct methanol fuel cells.

The CdSe QDs of green emission and the core-shell CdSe/ZnS QDs of red emission were prepared. Subsequently the trioctylphosphine oxide-stabilized CdSe/ZnS QDs were transferred from chloroform into water through a ligand exchange process with poly(glycino amino acid)phosphazenes, which can be obtained from the saponification of poly (glycino amino ester)phosphazenes at room temperature. The resulting QDs-polymer nanocomposite particles can form colloidally stable suspensions in water and exhibit good photostability.

文摘Poly{bis[4-(4'-(S)-2-methylbutoxy)biphenyloxy]phosphazene}(PP-C) was designed and successfully synthesized, and then characterized by means of FT-IR spectroscopy, ~1H- and ^(31)P-NMR, GPC spectroscopy, wide angle X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry. The results indicated that for PP-C, the M_w is 2.18×10~5 and the PDI is 1.96. PP-C was a kind of crystallized polymer with a crystallizing point of -2.0 ℃ and a melting point of 28 ℃. The conformational chirality of the PP-C molecules was studied using circular dichroism spectrum. It was found that in dilute THF solution, the biphenyl groups in the PP-C molecules twisted randomly. However, when the PP-C formed aggregates, the biphenyl groups tended to twist single-handedly, which was controlled by the adjacent chiral alkoxy groups.

文摘Although dielectric elastomer(DE)with substantial actuated strain(AS)has been reported 20 years ago,its scientific understanding remains unclear.The most accepted theory of DE,which is proposed in 2000,holds the view that AS of DE is induced by the Maxwell stress.According to this theory,materials have similar ratios of permittivity and Young’s modulus should have similar AS,while the experimental results are on contrary to this theory,and the experimental AS has no relationship with ideal AS.Here,a new dipole-conformation-actuated strain cross-scale model is proposed,which can be generally applied to explain the AS of DE without pre-strain.According to this model,several characteristics of an ideal DE are listed in this work and a new DE based on polyphosphazene(PPZ)is synthesized.The AS of PPZ can reach 84%without any pre-strain.At last,a PPZ-based all soft artificial heart(ASAH)is built,which works in the similar way with natural myocardium,indicating that this material has great application potential and possibility in the construction of an ASAH for heart failure(HF)patients.

文摘The utilization of biomaterials in implanted blood-contacting medical devices often induces a persistent problem of microbial infection,which results from bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation on the surface of biomaterials.In this research,we developed new fluorinated alkoxyphosphazene materials,specifically poly[bis(octafluoropentoxy)phosphazene](OFP)and crosslinkable OFP(X–OFP),with improved mechanical properties,and further modified the surface topography with ordered pillars to improve the antibacterial properties.Three X–OFP materials,X–OFP3.3,X–OFP8.1,X–OFP13.6,with different crosslinking densities were synthesized,and textured films with patterns of 500/500/600 nm(diameter/spacing/height)were fabricated via a two stage soft lithography molding process.Experiments with 3 bacterial strains:Staphylococcal epidermidis,Staphylococcal aureus,and Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed that bacterial adhesion coefficients were significantly lower on OFP and X–OFP smooth surfaces than on the polyurethane biomaterial,and surface texturing further reduced bacterial adhesion due to the reduction in accessible surface contact area.Furthermore the anti-bacterial adhesion effect shows a positive relationship with the crosslinking degree.Biofilm formation on the substrates was examined using a CDC biofilm reactor for 7 days and no biofilm formation was observed on textured X–OFP biomaterials.The results suggested that the combination of fluorocarbon chemistry and submicron topography modification in textured X–OFP materials may provide a practical approach to improve the biocompatibility of current biomaterials with significant reduction in risk of pathogenic infection.
文摘Polydichlorophosphazene(PDCP)was synthesized from PCl5 and NH4Cl via a one-pot approach,and then further reacted with glycine ethyl ester and methylparaben via a two-step nucleophilic substitution approach to give poly(methylparaben/glycine ethyl ester)phosphazene(PMGP),which was a kind of mix-substituted biodegradable polymer.NMR and FT-IR were used to characterize its structure.A series of experiments were conducted to study the effects of the ratio of methylparaben to glycine ethyl ester and the experimental conditions to the degradability of PMGP samples.The degradability of PMGP can be adjusted by altering the ratio of methylparaben to glycine ethyl ester easily.
