We address the immobilization of single-site catalyst on the graphite oxide (GO) surface using methylaluminoxane. Ethylene polymerization was performed using the immobilized catalyst and the nanocomposite of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)/GO with less entanglement density was obtained. It was observed that the drawability, mechanical and thermal properties of the produced polymer significantly are affected by the anchoring of polymer chains to the GO nanosheets. The orientation and location of crystalline lamellae and nanosheets were verified by microscopic techniques. Besides, X-ray analysis demonstrated the dispersion of GO within the UHMWPE phase and crystallinity of UHMWPE/GO nanocomposites enhanced during drawing process. 相似文献
Graphene/leucite nanocomposites (rGO/leucite) were prepared through in situ reduction of graphene oxide/geopolymer (rGO/KGP) composites. The effects of rGO on the microstructure and mechanical properties with respect to the geopolymer matrix after the high‐temperature treatment were investigated systematically. The results show that GO is first partially reduced in the geopolymeric solution and then completely under the post high‐temperature treatment. The rGO sheets undergo no interfacial reactions with the matrix even after thermal treatment. The rGO/geopolymer composites fully transform to rGO/leucite composites after being treated at 1000°C for 30 min in an argon atmosphere. Significant improvements in mechanical properties were achieved through rGO reinforcement giving flexural strength, elastic modulus, and fracture toughness of 91.1 MPa, 60.5 GPa, and 2.04 MPa·m1/2, increased by 120%, 8%, and 1.5%, respectively, compared with the leucite matrix alone. 相似文献
In this work in-situ preparation of novel poly(urethane-imide)/graphene, graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite is reported by the reaction of 4,4´-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, polypropylene glycol, 3,3’,4,4′-benzophenone tetra carboxylic dianhydride and nanomaterials in the loadings levels of 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, and 3.5 pbw in propylene carbonate as an alternative green solvent. The synthesized poly(urethane-imide) nanocomposite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1HNMR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), attenuated total reflection (ATR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), respectively. The resulting nanocomposite showed enhanced thermal stability when compared with pristine and unfilled poly(urethane-imide) sample. 相似文献
This study focused on developing a superparamagnetic graphene oxide-based nanocomposite consisting of iron oxide (IO) and gold nanoparticles for quercetin delivery. For this purpose, the structure and morphology of the designed nanocomposite (GO/IO/Au) were investigated by several characterization methods such as fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM) analysis, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Then, the biocompatibility of the synthesized nanocomposite was studied by Brine shrimp Artemia lethality assay, red blood cell hemolysis assay, and MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay. Moreover, the GO/IO/Au nanocomposite efficiency as an anticancer drug delivery system was evaluated in vitro conditions. The results showed that the designed nanocomposite is highly biocompatible and possesses a favorable magnetization (Ms?=?29.2 emu.g?1) making it a good candidate for biomedical applications. Also, it was confirmed that GO/IO/Au nanocomposite is a potent drug carrier that can effectively deliver quercetin to cancer cells.
Magnetic Fe3O4@C nanocomposites with well-defined core@shell structure were synthesized via a facile one-step solvothermal process using ferrocene as both iron and carbon resource in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The as-prepared Fe3O4@C nanocomposites were employed as adsorbent materials for removal of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution. Several experimental parameters, including contact time, acidity of the solution, and initial MB concentration were investigated. The result showed that the equilibrium uptake of MB was related to the MB initial concentration as well as acidity of the solution. The adsorption kinetics of MB was dominated by the pseudo-second order reaction model. Significantly, the synthesized Fe3O4@C nanocomposites could be easily isolated from the adsorption system after adsorbing MB and showed prominent reusability. All results indicated that the prepared Fe3O4@C composites had the potential to be used as adsorbents for the removal of dye pollutant from wastewater. 相似文献

The catalytic activity of graphene oxide supported copper oxide (CuO–GO) has been investigated in Click synthesis of 1,2,3‐triazole derivatives under green reaction conditions. In the context of green approach, water is used as solvent under ligand free and aerobic conditions at room temperature, with low catalyst loading (0.2 mol %) while ensuring the recovery and reusability of the catalyst. The catalyst affords excellent selectivity in formation of the desired products in good to excellent yields. Further, the work‐up procedure adopted here is clean and simple, while recycling the organic solvents that one used for work‐up procedure. It is proposed that the functional groups present on the GO surface are effective for preventing the aggregation of the catalytically active copper oxide species during the reaction. Moreover, the excellent performance of CuO–GO nanocomposite is ascribed to the excellent dispersity of the catalyst in water, hydrophilic nature of the GO for the accumulation of organic substrates in water and the “Breslow effect.”
Manganese oxide (Mn3O4) nanoparticles have been successfully innovated to be efficient catalysts not only for the aerobic oxidation of various alcohols to aldehydes or ketones, but also for the selective aerobic oxidation of mixed alcohols. 相似文献
We synthesized Ca-containing FSM-16 (Ca-FSM-16) for use as a solid base catalyst for the Knoevenagel condensation reaction. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) results indicated that Ca species were introduced as a calcium silicate-like phase with distorted tetrahedral coordination into the pore walls of FSM-16. Compared with conventional aminopropyl-functionalized mesoporous silica, Ca-FSM-16 showed higher activity as a solid-base catalyst for the Knoevenagel condensation reaction. 相似文献
