PVC木塑发泡材料性能的研究

研究了PVC树脂基本性能(聚合度、分子质量分布、表观密度)、助剂(发泡剂、发泡调节剂)、木粉及加工工艺(加工温度、挤出速度)对PVC木塑发泡材料性能的影响,并进行了工业化加工试验。结果表明:PVC树脂聚合度越高,发泡材料泡孔壁厚越大,发泡及加工都变得较为困难,适宜的聚合度为650~700;PVC树脂分子质量分布变宽,则发泡材料的密度增大,泡孔数量减少,泡孔增大,泡壁增厚,有串泡现象,适宜的分子质量分布指数为1.9~2.0;表观密度越高,机身压力越大,发泡材料泡孔数量越多,泡孔结构越均匀,适宜的表观密度为0.57~0.60 m L/g。对于S-700型PVC树脂而言,发泡剂AD C与助发泡剂Z n O的适宜质量比为1∶0.1,且二者的总用量以1.0份为宜;发泡调节剂ZB-530的适宜用量为8份;适宜的加工温度为185℃,适宜的挤出速度为20 r/min。宜采用硅烷偶联剂对木粉进行表面改性,发泡剂、发泡调节剂的用量应随着木粉用量的变化而调整。工业化加工试验结果表明:根据制品及生产设备的不同对试验得出的配方和加工工艺进行调整后,可顺利生产出质量优良的产品。     

甘蔗渣/LDPE发泡木塑复合材料的研究

用模压法制备了甘蔗渣／LDPE发泡木塑复合材料。考察了发泡剂用量、甘蔗渣含量及预热温度对发泡木塑复合材料性能的影响，并在扫描电镜下观察了材料断面的微观形态。结果表明：发泡后木塑材料的密度降低，发泡剂用量为1．0份时材料密度降低了近30％，化学发泡法可有效减轻材料的自重；冲击强度提高了近20％；虽然发泡造成拉伸强度和弯曲强度的降低，但由于发泡后密度也降低了，所以其比强度反而得到提高。甘蔗渣的加入降低了材料的性能，且随着用量的增加降低的幅度越大。预热温度为200℃时，材料的各项性能最佳。由扫描电镜可以看出，AC发泡剂为1．0份时的发泡木塑材料中分布着较均匀统一的圆形泡孔，而AC发泡剂为3．0份时，局部有泡孔坍塌破裂。

木粉对PVC发泡木塑复合材料性能的影响

采用PVC树脂和木粉加入发泡剂制得PVC/木粉发泡复合材料。本文对木粉进行了热重分析,考察木粉粒径及含量对PVC/木塑发泡材料性能的影响,考察了木粉含量对发泡、熔融指数、转矩加工流变性以及耐候性的影响。结果表明:TG分析表明PVC/木塑复合材料加工的最佳温度200℃左右。随着木粉粒径的减小,PVC/木粉复合材料的冲击强度和弯曲强度出现先上升后下降的趋势,100目木粉,力学性能最好。随着木粉用量的增加,体系的拉伸强度、冲击强度和弯曲强度均呈降低的趋势,材料的发泡效果变差,流动性、稳定性、耐候性变差,因此PVC木塑复合材料应该控制其木粉含量。

Many Drugs of Abuse May Be Acutely Transformed to Dopamine,Norepinephrine and Epinephrine In Vivo

It is well established that a wide range of drugs of abuse acutely boost the signaling of the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis, where norepinephrine and epinephrine are major output molecules. This stimulatory effect is accompanied by such symptoms as elevated heart rate and blood pressure, more rapid breathing, increased body temperature and sweating, and pupillary dilation, as well as the intoxicating or euphoric subjective properties of the drug. While many drugs of abuse are thought to achieve their intoxicating effects by modulating the monoaminergic neurotransmitter systems (i.e., serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine) by binding to these receptors or otherwise affecting their synaptic signaling, this paper puts forth the hypothesis that many of these drugs are actually acutely converted to catecholamines (dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine) in vivo, in addition to transformation to their known metabolites. In this manner, a range of stimulants, opioids, and psychedelics (as well as alcohol) may partially achieve their intoxicating properties, as well as side effects, due to this putative transformation to catecholamines. If this hypothesis is correct, it would alter our understanding of the basic biosynthetic pathways for generating these important signaling molecules, while also modifying our view of the neural substrates underlying substance abuse and dependence, including psychological stress-induced relapse. Importantly, there is a direct way to test the overarching hypothesis: administer (either centrally or peripherally) stable isotope versions of these drugs to model organisms such as rodents (or even to humans) and then use liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to determine if the labeled drug is converted to labeled catecholamines in brain, blood plasma, or urine samples.     

Methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoates Attract Stink Bugs and Tachinid Parasitoids

Halyomorpha halys (Stål) (Pentatomidae), called the brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), is a newly invasive species in the eastern USA that is rapidly spreading from the original point of establishment in Allentown, PA. In its native range, the BMSB is reportedly attracted to methyl (E,E,Z)-2,4,6-decatrienoate, the male-produced pheromone of another pentatomid common in eastern Asia, Plautia stali Scott. In North America, Thyanta spp. are the only pentatomids known to produce methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoate [the (E,Z,Z)-isomer] as part of their pheromones. Methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoates were field-tested in Maryland to monitor the spread of the BMSB and to explore the possibility that Thyanta spp. are an alternate host for parasitic tachinid flies that use stink bug pheromones as host-finding kairomones. Here we report the first captures of adult and nymph BMSBs in traps baited with methyl (E,E,Z)-2,4,6-decatrienoate in central Maryland and present data verifying that the tachinid, Euclytia flava (Townsend), exploits methyl (E,Z,Z)-2,4,6-decatrienoate as a kairomone. We also report the unexpected finding that various isomers of methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoate attract Acrosternum hilare (Say), although this bug apparently does not produce methyl decatrienoates. Other stink bugs and tachinids native to North America were also attracted to methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoates. These data indicate there are Heteroptera in North America in addition to Thyanta spp. that probably use methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoates as pheromones. The evidence that some pentatomids exploit the pheromones of other true bugs as kairomones to find food or to congregate as a passive defense against tachinid parasitism is discussed.

Inorganic/organic nanocomposite coatings: The next step in coating performance

Inorganic/organic hybrid materials have considerable promise and are beginning to become a major area of research for many coating usages, including abrasion and corrosion resistance. Our primary approach is to prepare the inorganic phase in situ within the film formation process of the organic phase. The inorganic phase is introduced via sol-gel chemistry into a thermosetting organic phase. By this method, the size, periodicity, spatial positioning, and density of the inorganic phase can be controlled. An important aspect of the inorganic/organic hybrid materials is the coupling agent. The initial task of the coupling agent is to provide uniform mixing of the oligomeric organic phase with the sol-gel precursors, which are otherwise immiscible. UV-curable inorganic/organic hybrid systems have the advantages of a rapid cure and the ability to be used on heat sensitive substrates such as molded plastics. Also, it is possible to have better control of the growth of the inorganic phase using UV curing. It is our ultimate goal to completely separate the curing of inorganic and organic phases to gain complete control over the morphology, and hence optimization of “all” the coating properties. Thus far, it has been found that concomitant UV curing of the inorganic and organic phases using titanium sol-gel precursors afforded nanocomposite coatings which completely block the substrate from UV light while maintaining a transparent to visible light. Also, it has been found that the morphology of the inorganic phase is highly dependent on the concentration and reactivity of the coupling agent.
