以甲基丙烯酸十二氟庚酯(DFHMA)和甲基丙烯酸(MAA)为单体,通过溶液聚合法制备出共聚物DFHMA-co-MAA,将DFHMA-co-MAA与聚偏氟乙烯(PVDF)按一定质量共混,采用静电纺丝方法,制备出羧基含氟聚合物(PVDF-DM)纳米纤维膜,用以吸附溶液中Cu(II)。讨论了PVDF和DFHMA-co-MAA的质量配比对纤维微观形貌和对Cu(II)吸附性能的影响,得出当PVDF与DFHMA-co-MAA的质量比为1∶2时,纤维的微观直径较均一且吸附性能最佳,故实验采用该质量配比制备PVDF-DM。使用红外光谱对PVDF-DM进行表征,显示出PVDF-DM纤维膜中含有—OH和C＝O等活性吸附基团。以PVDF-DM纳米纤维膜为吸附剂,探讨了吸附剂用量、吸附pH值和吸附时间对Cu(II)吸附性能的影响,并研究了吸附过程的动力学模型。结果表明,室温下,当吸附剂用量为0.03g,pH=5时,吸附60min达到吸附平衡,吸附率和吸附量分别为94.37%和62.91mg/g,PVDF-DM纳米纤维膜对Cu(II)的吸附过程同时满足拟一级动力学和拟二级动力学模型,说明该吸附过程包含了化学吸附和物理吸附。PVDF-DM纳米纤维膜循环使用5次后,吸附能力仅降低16.23%,说明PVDF-DM纳米纤维膜具有很好的再生使用能力。     

Maximization of quadruple phase boundary for alkaline membrane fuel cell using non-stoichiometric α-MnO2 as cathode catalyst

Oxygen can only be reduced at the quadruple phase boundary (catalyst, carbon support, ionomer and oxygen) of the cathode catalyst layer with non-conducting electrocatalyst. To maximize the quadruple phase boundary sites is crucial to increase the peak power density of each membrane electrode assembly. The quadruple phase boundary is depending on the ratio of catalyst, carbon support and ionomer. The loading of catalyst layer is also crucial to the fuel cell performance. In this study, non-stoichiometric α-MnO₂ manganese dioxide nanorod material has been synthesized and the ratios of carbon, ionomer and catalyst loadings were optimized in alkaline membrane fuel cell. In total, ten membrane electrode assemblies have been manufactured and tested. Taguchi design method has been applied in order to understand the effect of each parameter. The conclusion finds out the ionomer has more influence on the alkaline membrane fuel cell peak power performance than carbon and loading.     

Preparation and characterization of highly stable protic-ionic-liquid membranes

A highly durable proton exchange membranes (PEM)s based on covalently supported ionic liquid (IL) bearing sulfonic acid imidazolium groups were successfully fabricated. The membrane preparation involved radiation induced grafting of 1-vinyl imidazole (1-VIm) onto poly(ethylene-co-tetraflouroethene) (ETFE) film, followed by covalent immobilization of 3-sulfopropyl and subsequent treatment with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid. The ionic conductivity of the supported IL membranes was increased with the increase in the concentration of IL and reached a maximum value of 138 mS cm⁻¹ in a fully hydrated state with an ion exchange capacity of 4.82 mmol g⁻¹ that is higher than Nafion with a similar thickness. The membranes displayed excellent chemical and mechanical stability. In addition, the dimensional and thermal stability of supported IL-membranes were significantly higher than commercial Nafion membranes.     

复合管膜的润湿性及过滤污水机理

为了研究多孔复合管膜对钢铁产业污水的过滤性能及其过滤机理，采用静滴法做了水滴和油滴在复合管膜上的润湿性研究。采用扫描电镜、EDS等手段分析了使用前后的多孔复合管膜外壁及内壁的结构及成分，分析了含油污水中固体颗粒及油的过滤机理，并利用视频光学接触角测量仪测量水滴和油滴在复合管膜上接触角随时间的变化速率。结果表明，在污水过滤过程中，水中小于管膜表层微孔孔径的氧化铁等杂质进入复合管膜内部，无法随水流穿过复合管膜膜层，积累在管膜内部；随着管膜使用时间延长，氧化铁等杂质在复合管膜内部积累量增多。水在复合管膜上的润湿性良好，油滴在复合管膜上是不润湿的。     

Cell Death Mechanisms Induced by CLytA-DAAO Chimeric Enzyme in Human Tumor Cell Lines

The combination of the choline binding domain of the amidase N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine (CLytA)-D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) (CLytA-DAAO) and D-Alanine induces cell death in several pancreatic and colorectal carcinoma and glioblastoma cell lines. In glioblastoma cell lines, CLytA-DAAO-induced cell death was inhibited by a pan-caspase inhibitor, suggesting a classical apoptotic cell death. Meanwhile, the cell death induced in pancreatic and colon carcinoma cell lines is some type of programmed necrosis. In this article, we studied the mechanisms that trigger CLytA-DAAO-induced cell death in pancreatic and colorectal carcinoma and glioblastoma cell lines and we acquire a further insight into the necrotic cell death induced in pancreatic and colorectal carcinoma cell lines. We have analyzed the intracellular calcium mobilization, mitochondrial membrane potential, PARP-1 participation and AIF translocation. Although the mitochondrial membrane depolarization plays a crucial role, our results suggest that CLytA-DAAO-induced cell death is context dependent. We have previously detected pancreatic and colorectal carcinoma cell lines (Hs766T and HT-29, respectively) that were resistant to CLytA-DAAO-induced cell death. In this study, we have examined the putative mechanism underlying the resistance in these cell lines, evaluating both detoxification mechanisms and the inflammatory and survival responses. Overall, our results provide a better understanding on the cell death mechanism induced by CLytA-DAAO, a promising therapy against cancer.     

Imidazolium functionalized poly(vinyl alcohol) membranes for direct methanol alkaline fuel cell applications

In this study, imidazolium functionalized poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was synthesized by acetalization and direct quaternization reaction. Afterwards, composite anion exchange membranes based on imidazolium‐ and quaternary ammonium‐ functionalized PVA were used for direct methanol alkaline fuel cell applications. ¹H NMR and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy data indicated that imidazole functionalized PVA was successfully synthesized. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry data demonstrated that the imidazolium structure was efficiently obtained by direct quaternization of the imidazole group. Composite anion exchange membranes were fabricated by application of the functionalized PVA solution on the surface of porous polycarbonate (PC) membranes. Fuel cell related properties of all prepared membranes were investigated systematically. The imidazolium functionalized composite membrane (PVA‐Im/PC) exhibited higher ionic conductivity (7.8 mS cm^?1 at 30 °C) despite a lower water uptake and ion exchange capacity value compared to that of quaternary ammonium. In addition, PVA‐Im/PC showed the lowest methanol permeation rate and the highest membrane selectivity as well as high alkaline and oxidative stability. Dynamic mechanical analysis results reveal that both composite membranes were mechanically resistant up to 10⁷ Pa at 140 °C. The superior performance of imidazolium functionalized PVA composite membrane compared to quaternary ammonium functionalized membrane makes it a promising candidate for direct methanol alkaline fuel cell applications. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry     

ZSM-5沸石膜用于生物油的脱水分离及其再生过程研究

在水热条件下通过无模板剂法合成了连续的ZSM-5沸石膜，并将其用于生物油的渗透汽化以进行高效脱水分离。ZSM-5沸石膜在强酸性、多组分的生物油体系中保持了很好的化学稳定性和优异的分离选择性，但在分离过程中面临着较强的膜污染问题，导致了膜通量的大幅下降。ZSM-5沸石膜的再生研究表明，膜的渗透通量随着再生温度的升高而逐渐提高。当再生温度为220℃时，ZSM-5沸石膜的渗透通量可以恢复至初始的88%。再生的机理研究表明，ZSM-5沸石膜中大量的晶内孔在生物油体系中极易被污染，从而导致渗透通量迅速下降；而相对较大的晶间孔却难以被完全堵塞，水分子在被污染的ZSM-5沸石膜中主要通过晶间孔进行渗透。上述结果表明，通过合理调控ZSM-5沸石膜的晶间孔的数量和尺寸大小可有效提升ZSM-5沸石膜在生物油中的渗透汽化脱水分离性能。
