Intercalation structure and toughening mechanism of graphene/urea‐formaldehyde nanocomposites prepared via in situ polymerization

Based on the industrialized graphene (GN) product, a series of graphene/urea‐formaldehyde nanocomposites were synthesized via in situ polymerization by incorporation of silicon coupling agent with terminal amino groups (SA) as the compatibilizer. The results showed that addition of SA coupling agent led to much more efficient grafting of UF molecules on the GN surface with high layer thickness by formation of hydrogen bonding, and thus complete exfoliation and uniform dispersion of GN were achieved for the composites. Compared with neat UF, the addition of 1.0 wt% GN resulted in a roughly 25% increase in tensile strength and 12% increase in impact strength; meanwhile the impact fracture surfaces of the composite showed obvious ductile fracture characteristics, indicating the reinforcing and toughening effect of GN on the UF matrix. With increasing GN content, the storage modulus, glass transition temperature and crosslinking density of UF increased, while the tan δ_max decreased, suggesting that a double crosslinking network structure with GN centered crosslinking point and chemical crosslinking point of UF molecular chains formed, leading to improvement in the stiffness of the composites. The present work showed promising potential for developing high performance UF resin on an industrial scale. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry     

On manifestation & physics of the Kurdjumov and spillover effects in carbon nanostructures,under intercalation of high density hydrogen

Abstract

Some experimental evidences and the physics (thermodynamics) of the nanoscale self-intercalation of high-density gaseous molecular hydrogen (ρ?≈?0.045?g/cm³, T?≈?300?K) into surface nanoclusters in highly oriented pyrolytic graphite and epitaxial graphene, as well as the nanoscale self-intercalation of high density solid molecular hydrogen (ρ?≈?0.5?g/cm³, T?≈?300?K, the compressed pressure ～ 0.5 Mbar) into graphite nanofibers are considered, with regard to the problem of compact and efficient hydrogen on-board storage and other clean energy applications. Perspectives of further developments of these results are considered, as well.

Continuous water treatment by adsorption and electrochemical regeneration

This study describes a process for water treatment by continuous adsorption and electrochemical regeneration using an air-lift reactor. The process is based on the adsorption of dissolved organic pollutants onto an adsorbent material (a graphite intercalation compound, Nyex^®1000) and subsequent electrochemical regeneration of the adsorbent leading to oxidation of the adsorbed pollutant. Batch experiments were carried out to determine the adsorption kinetics and equilibrium isotherm for adsorption of a sample contaminant, the organic dye Acid Violet 17. The adsorbent circulation rate, the residence time distribution (RTD) of the reactor, and treatment by continuous adsorption and electrochemical regeneration were studied to investigate the process performance. The RTD behaviour could be approximated as a continuously stirred tank. It was found that greater than 98% removal could be achieved for continuous treatment by adsorption and electrochemical regeneration for feed concentrations of up to 300 mg L⁻¹. A steady state model has been developed for the process performance, assuming full regeneration of the adsorbent in the electrochemical cell. Experimental data and modelled predictions (using parameters for the adsorbent circulation rate, adsorption kinetics and isotherm obtained experimentally) of the dye removal achieved were found to be in good agreement.     

改性剂及高密度聚乙烯插层和剥离蒙脱石的分子动力学模拟

为研究高密度聚乙烯/有机改性蒙脱石（PE?HD/OMMT）复合材料中改性剂及PE?HD对蒙脱石（MMT）插层和剥离的影响,采用分子动力学方法模拟了OMMT中不同负载量的十八烷基三甲基氯化铵阳离子（OTAC⁺）在MMT中的排列方式以及对MMT插层的影响。此外,搭建了PE?HD/OMMT复合材料模型,编写MS Perl脚本提取了OTAC⁺与MMT和PE?HD之间的相互作用能来研究双螺杆挤出机机筒温度在463 K下对MMT剥离的影响。模拟结果表明,随着OTAC⁺负载量的提高,其在MMT片层中依次呈现为单层分布、双层分布和假三层分布;同时,OTAC⁺负载量的增加致使MMT的层间距有所增加,但MMT并未发生剥离;模拟时间在90~95 ps内时,PE?HD/OMMT复合材料模型中顶层和底层MMT间的相互作用能由-24.53 kcal/mol转变为3.54 kcal/mol,说明MMT发生了剥离,此时MMT的层间距为91 ?。
