Phosphorylated chitosan/poly(vinyl alcohol) based proton exchange membranes modified with propylammonium nitrate ionic liquid and silica filler for fuel cell applications

In our previous work, phosphorylated chitosan was modified through polymer blending with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) polymer to produce N-methylene phosphonic chitosan/poly(vinyl alcohol) (NMPC/PVA) composite membranes. The aim of this work is to further investigate the effects of a propylammonium nitrate (PAN) ionic liquid and/or silicon dioxide (SiO₂) filler on the morphology and physical properties of NMPC/PVA composite membranes. The temperature-dependent ionic conductivity of the composite membranes with various ionic liquid and filler compositions was studied by varying the loading of PAN ionic liquid and SiO₂-PAN filler in the range of 5–20 wt%. As the loading of PAN ionic liquid increased in the NMPC/PVA membrane matrix, the ionic conductivity value also increased with the highest value of 0.53 × 10^?3 S cm^?1 at 25 °C and increased to 1.54 × 10^?3 S cm^?1 at 100 °C with 20 wt% PAN. The NMPC/PVA-PAN (20 wt%) composite membrane also exhibited the highest water uptake and ion exchange capacity, with values of 60.5% and 0.60 mequiv g^?1, respectively. In addition, in the single-cell performance test, the NMPC/PVA-PAN (20 wt%) composite membrane displayed a maximum power density, which was increased by approximately 14% compared to the NMPC/PVA composite membrane with 5 wt% SiO₂-PAN. This work demonstrated that modified NMPC/PVA composite membranes with ionic liquid PAN and/or SiO₂ filler showed enhanced performance compared with unmodified NMPC/PVA composite membranes for proton exchange membrane fuel cells.     

Chemoenzymatic Asymmetric Synthesis of Pyridine-Based α-Fluorinated Secondary Alcohols

Fluoro-substituted and heteroaromatic compounds are valuable intermediates for a variety of applications in pharma- and agrochemistry and synthetic chemistry. This study investigates the chemoenzymatic preparation of chiral alcohols bearing a heteroaromatic ring with an increasing degree of fluorination in α-position. Starting from readily available picoline derivatives prochiral α-halogenated acyl moieties were introduced with excellent selectivity and 64–95 % yield. The formed carbonyl group was subsequently reduced to the corresponding alcohols using the alcohol dehydrogenase from Lactobacillus kefir, yielding an enantiomeric excess of 95–>99 % and up to 98 % yield.     

蓝藻基生物降解共混膜的力学性能

以聚乙烯醇(PVA)和水华蓝藻为主要原料,通过溶液铺膜法制备了蓝藻/PVA共混膜,采用万能试验机,研究了不同助剂对蓝藻/PVA共混膜力学性能的影响。结果表明,蓝藻的添加显著降低了共混膜的力学性能。当添加比例为PVA的1/2时,膜的拉伸强度和断裂伸长率分别比无藻处理下降了65.89%和79.57%。甘油、尿素显著提升了蓝藻/PVA共混膜的断裂伸长率,当添加比例为蓝藻的1/2时,分别能使共混膜的断裂伸长率提高73.20倍和62.02倍。虽然柠檬酸、硅烷偶联剂能够提升蓝藻/PVA共混膜的拉伸强度,但只能在低剂量时促进断裂伸长率的小幅提高,当柠檬酸添加比例为蓝藻的1/40时,膜的断裂伸长率能提高4.41倍,而当硅烷偶联剂添加比例为蓝藻的1/20时,膜的断裂伸长率能提高1.49倍。尿素与甘油复合增塑,更有利于提升共混膜的断裂伸长率。硅烷偶联剂与甘油复合增塑,更有利于提升共混膜的拉伸强度。     

溶胀嵌入脂肪酸分子制备高脱硼反渗透膜

采用“溶胀-嵌入-收缩”方法改性聚酰胺反渗透膜，制备了一种高脱硼反渗透膜。通过甲醇溶胀增加了高分子链之间的距离，为疏水性癸酸分子的嵌入提供了场所，然后在压力和浓差极化共同作用下，改性分子选择性嵌入聚酰胺膜的孔内；当甲醇分子离开后，聚酰胺膜收缩将癸酸分子固定在高分子网络中。实验借助溶胀和分子嵌入以及溶胀后的收缩调节聚酰胺膜的孔径大小；利用脂肪酸的疏水性降低聚酰胺膜的极性，从而实现增加空间位阻和减少氢键结合位点数量的目的。实验结果显示，改性膜的脱硼率和截盐率均明显升高，截盐率从90.36%增加到96.46%，脱硼率从未改性膜的47.85%增加到77.32%，渗透液的硼含量达到WTO的使用标准。虽然水和硼的渗透性均下降，但是水和硼的渗透选择性增加，证明该方法有利于提高水硼选择性。     

阳离子型高温酸化缓蚀剂的合成及其性能评价

SO4^2-／ZrO2固体超强酸的制备及其催化合成ETBE的研究

采用沉淀一浸渍法制备了负载型SO4^2-／ZrO2固体超强酸催化剂，运用IR、XRD等方法表征所制备催化剂的物化性质。结果表明，所制备的催化剂具有固体超强酸催化剂的特征，酸性与焙烧温度有关，适当提高焙烧温度有利于样品酸强度的提高，但焙烧温度过高会导致脱硫；浸渍液H2SO4浓度高有利于提高催化剂的硫含量，但是浓度过高，会在催化剂上形成硫酸盐，从而降低催化剂的比表面积和酸性。采用制备的催化剂气相催化乙醇与叔丁醇合成乙基叔丁基醚反应，乙基叔丁基醚的选择性为54．71％。
