Studies on Catalytic Side-Chain Oxidation of Nitroaromatics to Aldehydes with Oxygen

The side-chain oxidation of 2-nitrotoluene in liquid phase in the presence of catalytic amount of manganese sulfate and stoichiometric amount of potassium hydroxide with oxygen was studied. In the most favorable conditions, over 80% of conversion of 2-nitrotoluene and 50% of selectivity to 2-nitrobenzaldehyde was achieved. Effects of the reaction parameters on the conversion of the reactant and the selectivity of the product were examined. These results, together with EPR spectroscopic study, show that a benzyl anion was formed in the early stage of the reaction, which was then converted to the final product via a free radical mechanism.

Facile Fabrication of Poly(vinyl alcohol)/Polyquaternium-10 (PVA/PQ-10) Anion Exchange Membrane with Semi-Interpenetrating Network

Anion exchange membranes (AEMs) are one of the core components of AEM fuel cells. A series of poly(vinyl alcohol)/polyquaternium-10 (PVA/PQ-10) AEMs with semi-interpenetrating networks (s-IPNs) are prepared by a simple solution-casting method using glutaraldehyde (GA) as a cross-linking agent. Subsequently, the prepared PVA/PQ-10 cross-linked membranes are characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, mechanical analysis, water uptake and swelling ratio tests, ion exchange capacity (IEC) tests, ionic conductivity measurements, and oxidative/alkaline stability tests. The effects of the mass ratio of PVA and PQ-10 and the amount of cross-linking agent GA on the performance of the PVA/PQ-10 cross-linked membranes are systematically explored. The results show that the cross-linked PVA/PQ-10 AEMs have high IEC and low water uptake and swelling ratio, and its maximum ionic conductivity can reach 79.37 mS cm^–1 at 80 °C. In addition, the PVA/PQ-10 cross-linked membrane has good oxidative and alkaline stability under optimal preparation conditions. These results may provide valuable insights toward more effective scheme designs and new, simple preparation methods for AEMs with s-IPN structures.

New anion exchanger organic–inorganic hybrid materials and membranes from a copolymerof glycidylmethacrylate and γ‐methacryloxypropyl trimethoxy silane

Organic–inorganic hybrid materials and mem branes were prepared through coating on Teflon plate or dip‐coating on microporous alumina substrates with the solution of glycidylmethacrylate (GMA) and γ‐methacryloxypropyl trimethoxy silane (γ‐MPS) copolymer, followed by ring‐opening of the GMA moiety with trimethylamine hydrochloric and sol–gel reaction of the γ‐MPS moiety. Composition of the GMA and γ‐MPS copolymer was varied by changing the feed ratio of GMA to γ‐MPS during the copolymerization. So the thermal stability, hydrophilicity, electrical properties, etc. of the hybrid materials and membranes were varied. Results showed that as the γ‐MPS amount increased in the copolymer, T_d (the temperature on thermogram at 5% weight loss) value of the hybrid materials and water contact angle of the hybrid membrane generally increased, while the anion exchange capacity, water uptake (W_R) and pure water flux decreased. The charge transition point of the hybrid membranes deduced from their streaming potential behavior decreased from pH > 12 to pH = 7–8 as the γ‐MPS amount increased. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Preparation and characterization of amphiphilic block copolymer of polyacrylonitrile‐block‐poly(ethylene oxide)

The synthesis of polyacrylonitrile‐block‐poly(ethylene oxide) (PAN‐b‐PEO) diblock copolymers is conducted by sequential initiation and Ce(IV) redox polymerization using amino‐alcohol as the parent compound. In the first step, amino‐alcohol potassium with a protected amine group initiates the polymerization of ethylene oxide (EO) to yield poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) with an amine end group (PEO‐NH₂), which is used to synthesize a PAN‐b‐PEO diblock copolymer with Ce(IV) that takes place in the redox initiation system. A PAN‐poly(ethylene glycol)‐PAN (PAN‐PEG‐PAN) triblock copolymer is prepared by the same redox system consisting of ceric ions and PEG in an aqueous medium. The structure of the copolymer is characterized in detail by GPC, IR, ¹H‐NMR, DSC, and X‐ray diffraction. The propagation of the PAN chain is dependent on the molecular weight and concentration of the PEO prepolymer. The crystallization of the PAN and PEO block is discussed. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 89: 1753–1759, 2003

Direct methanol alkaline fuel cells with catalysed anion exchange membrane electrodes

Membrane electrodes prepared by chemical deposition of platinum directly onto the anion exchange membrane electrolyte were tested in direct methanol alkaline fuel cells. Data on the cell voltage against current density performance and anode potentials are reported. The relatively low fuel cell performance was probably due to the low active surface area of Pt deposits on the membrane comparing to other membrane electrode assembly (MEA) fabrication methods. However, the catalysed membrane electrode showed good performance for oxygen reduction. A reduction in cell internal resistance was also obtained for the catalysed membrane electrode. By combining the catalysed membrane electrodes with a catalysed mesh, maximum current density of 98 mA cm^–2 and peak power density of 18 mW cm^–2 were achieved.
