Preparation of hydrophobic organic-silicanano composites

In this paper, we use silica nanoparticles modified by methacryloxy propyl trimethoxylsilane (KH570) as the core material, and employ polymers including hexafluorobutyl methacrylate (HFMA), dodecafluoroheptyl methacrylate (DFMA) and acrylic ester as the shell materials to prepare the hydrophobic inorganic–organic hybrid nanocomposites with a seed emulsion polymerization strategy. The size, morphologyandproperties of the core-shell structured nanoparticles are investigated by TEM and SEM. The results showthat the polymer nanocomposite has three concentric layers with silica nanoparticles in the center, acrylic polymer as the internal shell and fluorosilicone polymer as the outmost shell. By controlling the ratio of the silica nanoparticles and monomers, we can achieve each composite particle has the core-shell structure with silica nanoparticles as the core and the thin layer of fluorosilicone polymer as the shell. Compared with the traditional polymer film, the nanocomposite film shows a hydrophobic property with a contact angle of up to 100 degree. Therefore, it is feasible to prepare hydrophobic organic–inorganic nanocomposites using the method proposed here.     

单层氧化石墨烯改性水性聚氨酯

Amino acid composition,foaming, emulsifying properties and surface hydrophobicity of mustard protein isolate as affected by pH and NaCl

Amino acid composition, protein hydrophobicity, foaming and emulsifying properties of mustard protein isolate at pH 3, 5, 7 and in 0.05 and 0.1 m NaCl were studied. Glutamic (19.18 ± 0.30%) and aspartic (7.49 ± 0.11%) acids were the dominants. Foaming ability was enhanced by NaCl. Time to reach 75 mL foam was 23% higher in water than in NaCl. Drained volume after 10 min was concentration dependent and was the lowest in 0.05 and 0.1 m NaCl at protein concentration of 2.5% and 5%. The emulsifying properties were pH and concentration dependent, and the best results were obtained at pH 3, corresponding to the highest positive charge density of the protein surface. The highest emulsion stability (90.22 ± 3.52%) was obtained in 0.05 m NaCl and 5% protein concentration, whereas the lowest (63.00 ± 1.06%) was in water at all protein concentrations. Protein hydrophobicity was low and depended of pH but not of NaCl.     

In Situ crystallization to zinc aluminate films with controlled surface microstructure and anticorrosion performance

Spinel‐type zinc aluminate (ZnAl₂O₄) thin films with controlled surface microstructure on aluminum substrates were fabricated via a facile and effective in situ crystallization method without using any templates or surfactants. The surface microstructure of ZnAl₂O₄ films could be significantly controlled by varying the experimental conditions including concentration of reactants, crystallization temperature, and crystallization time. After surface modification, the specific topography of ZnAl₂O₄ films was beneficial to obtain surface hydrophobic or superhydrophobic properties. More importantly, compared to nanoparticle‐ and nanosword‐assembled ZnAl₂O₄ films, nanorod‐assembled ZnAl₂O₄ film provided a more effective barrier to aggressive species for aluminum substrates in a wide range of pH values; very low corrosion current density of the order of ～10^?19 A cm^?12 could be achieved. A new contribution to the development of advanced coating system with ZnAl₂O₄ film materials that can be used in practical application for corrosion protection of aluminum materials is provided. © 2011 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2012     

Preparation and properties of modified graphene oxide incorporated waterborne polyurethane acrylate

In this study, a new modifier (KPG) was prepared by modifying graphene oxide with γ‐glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane (KH560) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). KPG was in turn added to aqueous urethane acrylate for the fabrication of waterborne polyurethane polyacrylate emulsion modified with KH560‐PDMS composite (KPG/WPUA). Textural characterizations of the KPG/WPUA coating were achieved via Fourier transform infrared, SEM, TGA and AFM techniques, which revealed that the KPG/WPUA film possessed a smooth surface. The synthesized KPG/WPUA films were tested for mechanical properties, hydrophobicity and acid/water corrosion performance which suggested their highly hydrophobic surface. KPG/WPUA with 0.1% KPG showed a contact angle of 118.35°, 30.35° higher than that of pristine WPUA. The KPG/WPUA film exhibited higher thermal stability, i.e. a 5% weight loss temperature of 305 °C, which was 30 °C higher than that of pristine WPUA film. The Young's modulus and elongation at break of the KPG/WPUA film were 34.1 MPa and 74.88% respectively, which were higher than that of WPUA film. Furthermore, KPG/WPUA films exhibited greater resistance (without obvious blistering and the white spotting phenomenon) to H₂O₂, HCl and water corrosion than pristine WPUA. The superior performance of KPG/WPUA films was attributed to the network chain structure formed upon the introduction of KPG into WPUA. The outstanding performance of KPG/WPUA films in terms of mechanical properties, thermal stability and high resistance to acidic and water corrosion makes them interesting alternative contenders for target applications. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry
