Calcium phosphates grown on bacterial cellulose template

Bacterial cellulose membranes were employed as templates for calcium phosphates deposition by successive immersion in solutions of Ca(NO₃)₂·4H₂O and (NH₄)₂HPO₄, under ultrasonication. During the wet chemical reaction, mineral phases were loaded on bacterial cellulose fibrils, leading to precursor hybrid composites. These were subjected to a lyophilisation procedure in order to preserve the 3D porous aspect and afterwards to a thermal treatment with the aim of removing the polymeric phase and generating well crystallized structures. Different types of morphologies were achieved by varying the heating rate, as well as the calcination temperature and period. The as-prepared samples and the final ones were investigated from compositional and structural point of view through X-ray diffraction and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and morphologically concerning by scanning electron microscopy. The magnetic properties were also evaluated in order to demonstrate the suitability of the obtained materials for the development of magnetic scaffolds dedicated to hard tissue applications.     

浅谈酶在非接触印刷废纸脱墨中的应用

Catalytic effects during cellulose liquefaction

Cellulose can be totally liquefied by heating to 350 °C in the presence of an aqueous phenolic solvent containing a catalyst. The main products are light aromatic hydrocarbons, benzofurans, heavier aromatic hydrocarbons such as substituted indanes and tetralin, and xanthenes. The variation of product distribution with catalyst was examined and it was found that in aqueous phenol, xanthene formation was enhanced by acidity. By substituting guaiacol for phenol, it was determined that most benzofuran formation involved the phenol solvent molecules, although a small proportion did not. This benzofuran may have arises from phenol generated from cellulose, the incorporation of phenol in the products being enhanced through a cage effect.     

Mechanical and microstructure studies on the modification of CA film by blending with PS

DriedMusa paradiciaca (banana) stem and veins of the leaves, which were hitherto discarded as a waste, were collected and used as starting material for the preparation of cellulose and cellulose acetate. This cellulose acetate was mixed with polystyrene to form blend of cellulose acetate-polystyrene in order to provide enhanced stability and extended utility to the end products. The films of these composites or their individual partners were made separately and studied for their mechanical properties, chemical modification and morphological changes. We report here that banana stem is good source of cellulose and that cellulose completely undergoes modification upon esterification.     

LiNbO_3晶体的力学参数与晶面取向间的关系

本实验采用 LiNbO_3 单晶,取四种不同晶面指向的样品进行了力学参数,如断裂强度σ_f、断裂功γ_f、断裂韧性 K_(Ic)和弹性模量 E 的测量。在三点弯曲试验条件下,对 LiNbO_3 单晶不同取向时的声发射特征也作了研究。实验发现,σ_f、γ_f 和 E 与晶面间距、晶面上的离子排列关系较为明显,声发射信号随单晶的取向不同而变化,这是其各向异性结构所致。     

纤维素的辐射裂解及其化学性质

纤维素经高能射线辐照,能产生一系列的化学和物理性质的变化。本文报道在不同剂量的~(60)Coγ射线辐照下,稻草中的水溶性糖、易水解糖、难水解糖,以及氨基酸、蛋白质等物质的化学变化;用辐射与加泡涨剂相结合的方法处理稻草,可以降低剂量、提高效应。     

新的载体媒介传递膜

总结了近几年研究和发展的几种载体媒介传递膜。与支撑液膜相比，这些膜具有好的稳定性和长的寿命。对某些物质，如重金属离子、小分子中性碳氢化合物、氨基酸等有高的选择性和通量。它们的传递机理为固定位置跳跃或移动和固定载体2种机理结合。这些研究有望在环境、生物等技术领域中应用。     

Inter- and intra-molecular ionic interactions of polyampholyte: Carboxymethyl-2-diethylaminoethylcellulose

Carboxymethyl-2-diethylaminoethylcellulose (CM-DEAE cellulose) was prepared by etherification of carboxymethylcellulose with diethylaminoethyl chloride in a NaOH solution. The behaviour of CM-DEAE cellulose in aqueous solution was studied by viscosity and GPC measurements. The degree of substitution (DS) and existing states of DEAE substituents were examined by the use of proton NMR, and those of the CM substituents were observed with FT-IR. The results reveal that the reduced viscosity and apparent molecular size of CM-DEAE cellulose vary with the concentration of sodium chloride and changes in pH and DS. These phenomena can be explained in terms of inter- and intra-molecular ionic interactions.     

氧浓度对近临界水中纤维素分解的影响

研究了不同初始氧浓度对纤维素在近临界水中分解的影响，实验结果表明，氧浓度显著地影响产物总碳收支平衡，液相不同组分的收率、气体的产量以及气相产物的组成，微量氧对产物总碳收支平衡影响不大，而对液相不同组分的收率有一定的影响。从实验结果可以看出，离子型反应机理在纤维素水解的第一步中起主导作用。而单糖的进一步分解是一个以自由基反应机理为主的过程。     

Hybrids of cellulose acetate and sol–gel silica: Morphology,thermomechanical properties,water permeability,and biodegradation evaluation

Hybrids based on cellulose acetate (CA) and SiO₂ were prepared by hydrolysis of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS). More rigid films were obtained with an inorganic phase incorporation. The thermal stability of the hybrids was similar to pure CA. Composite membranes were prepared by casting of CA/TEOS mixtures onto a poly(vinylidene fluoride) support. The water permeation decreased with the incorporation of the inorganic phase. Hybrid membranes were able to retain solutes with a molar mass of ?9000 g/mol (?98% retention). Hybrids were submitted to biodegradation tests. The presence of the inorganic phase did not inhibit the growth of Thricoderma harzianum fungi. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
