Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers were fabricated via a dry‐jet wet‐spinning technique, and a solvent‐free coagulation bath system was adopted. The effects of different types of dope solvent on the formation and physical properties of the PAN fibers were investigated. Dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were selected as the solvents and were added to a spinning solution consisting of 18 wt % PAN. The PAN fibers were examined with field emission scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis. The field emission scanning electron micrographs revealed that the PAN fibers with the DMSO solvent exhibited a more circular shape and a smoother skin. The PAN fibers with the DMSO solvent had their glass‐transition temperature (T_g) at 121°C. This study indicated that the different types of dope solvent used in the dope preparation did not affect T_g of the PAN fibers because of the solvent‐free coagulation bath system; however, they significantly affected the physical formation of the PAN fibers. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Functionalized polymers have gained much interest in the last decades. This is due to their functional group and their polymer nature that give them unique properties and more advantages than the corresponding small molecules. In this trend, polyhydroxystyrene‐co‐MMA was modified to introduce amino group in the side chain of the polymer. The amine modified polymer was reacted with two classes of active compounds. The first class is aldehydes such as vanilline, p‐hydroxybenzaldehyde, p‐chlorobenzaldehyde, and anisaldehyde. The second class is phenolic esters such as p‐hydroxymethylbenzoate, 2,4‐dihydroxymethyl benzoate, and methyl salicylate. The antimicrobial activities of the polymer and modified polymer with these two classes were explored with Gram‐negative bacteria (Escherichia coli), Gram‐positive bacteria (Bacillus subtilus), fugus like yeast (Candida albicans SC5314), and pathogenic molds (Aspergillus flavus, Trycophyton rubrum, and F. oxysporium). In vitro studies indicated that the start polymer did not affect on the test microorganisms, in contrary to its derivatives. The diameter of inhibition zone varied according to the active group in the modified polymer, polymer microstructure, and the test microorganism. Derivatives I, II, and III were selected among the most effective antimicrobial compounds. Their inhibitory effects on the ratio of surviving cell number (M/C) increased by increasing derivatives concentrations. Derivatives I and II were inhibitorier to C. albicans and molds than to bacteria while derivative III was only antibacterial. These derivatives seemed toxic to Brine shrimp by increasing their concentrations above 10 ppm, with derivative III being the less toxic, compared to others. To clarify this toxic effect and to decrease the toxicity of these derivatives, more detailed studies are necessary, and this will be focused in the nearest future. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Production of activated carbon (AC) from agricultural byproducts is a research field that has gained increased interest in recent years because of its potential for the disposal of agro‐residues. At the same time, a beneficial byproduct that can be used in a number of environmental applications is produced. This paper surveys the developments in the production processes of AC from agricultural byproducts in the past 7 years from 2005 to 2012 via conventional and microwave heating. Emphasis is placed on the applied methodology and the influences of activating conditions, such as carbonization temperature, retention time, and impregnation ratio. From the review of AC production processes, agricultural wastes produced by a chemical method with microwave heating can be a source of AC with relatively higher surface area than that produced via conventional heating. © 2013 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

The effects of alumina (Al₂O₃) and zinc oxide (ZnO) fillers on the curing characteristics, thermal and mechanical properties of silicone rubber were studied. Rheometer results indicate that the incorporation of ZnO fillers retards the curing process, whereas an enhancement in cure rate was observed for Al₂O₃. Higher maximum torque (M_H) and minimum torque (M_L) values was also observed for ZnO silicone rubber compounds compared to Al₂O₃. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that ZnO silicone rubber compounds are thermally more stable than Al₂O₃; however, the coefficient of thermal expansion of the Al₂O₃ silicone rubber compounds are lower than that of ZnO. Comparison in mechanical strength between the two silicone rubber hybrids indicates that ZnO is a better reinforcement filler, as evidenced in the tensile strength, elongation at break, and modulus at 300% elongation.  相似文献

Objective: The purpose of this preliminary clinical study was to evaluate the effect of novel impression valve system (IVS) on adhesion force of different impression materials to edentulous maxilla. Background data: Impression materials and techniques have an important role in complete denture success. During the functional impression with an individual impression tray (IIT), high adhesive forces exist between edentulous ridge and impression material. Removing the IIT from the mouth with minimal force provides the most accurate and non-deformed impression. Materials and methods: This study included twenty maxillary edentulous patients (n?=?20). Patients who had palatal torus, anatomic undercut, gagging reflex, and flabby ridges were excluded from the study. The age range of the participants was 55–70. All patients gave written informed consent. Two impression materials – zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) and alginate – were used as experimental material. The digital dynamometer was used to determine the adhesion force of impression materials with and without IVS to edentulous maxilla. The mean values of the adhesion forces were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-ranks test (α = 0.05). Results: The effect of IVS on adhesion force was found to be statistically significant (p < 0.05). There were also statistical differences between the ZOE and alginate groups (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The IVS is useful to remove the functional impression from the mouth without any deformation and detaching in cases which high adhesive force occurs.  相似文献

The corrosion inhibition of mild steel in hydrochloric acid solution by chamomile (Matricaria recutita) extract (CE) was investigated through electrochemical (polarization, EIS) and surface analysis (optical microscopy/AFM/SEM) techniques. The effects of inhibitor concentration, temperature, and pH were evaluated. Thermodynamic parameters were calculated and adsorption studies were carried out. Finally, the surface morphology was investigated. The electrochemical studies showed that CE acts as a mixed-type corrosion inhibitor with predominantly anodic behavior. CE was adsorbed physically on the metal surface and obeyed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. It impeded the corrosion processes by changing the activation energy. In the presence of CE, the metal surface was more uniform than the surface in the absence of inhibitor. Maximum inhibition efficiency (IE) was 93.28%, which was obtained at 22°C in 7.2 g/L of inhibitor in 1 M HCl solution.  相似文献

The properties of acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) composites were studied at five different compositions of NBR/HNTs/Silica or NBR/HNTs/CB (i.e., 100/5/0, 100/4/1, 100/3/2, 100/2/3, 100/0/5 parts per hundred rubber (phr)). The tensile strength and modulus (M100) of both composites decreased, whereas elongation at break increased and maximum torque with increasing the silica or carbon black content. However, both composites show opposite trends for cure time and scorch time, where NBR/HNTs/Silica composite exhibited an increasing trend, while NBR/HNTs/CB composite shows the decreasing trend. The rubber-filler interaction studies showed that carbon black is a more reinforcing filler than silica.  相似文献

Two types of poly-N-isopropylacrylamide (p-NIPAM)/Cloisite 30B clay nanocomposite (NC) hydrogels were synthesized where the first one contained Cloisite 30B without modification. However, the second one contained Cloisite 30B with glycopolymer units attached onto its surface by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization. The main purpose of this article was to study the effect of surface grafting of glycopolymer onto Cloisite 30B clay surface on the physical properties of the resulting NC hydrogels such as swelling ratio, deswelling behavior and thermal behavior. It was found that NC hydrogels containing glyco-units had better properties than the first one.  相似文献

Effects of dynamic vulcanization and acrylic acid (AAc) on processability, mechanical properties, swelling behavior, morphology, and thermal stability of recycled poly(vinyl chloride)/acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (PVCr/NBR) blends were investigated. Blends were prepared in a Haake Rheomix at a temperature of 150°C and a rotor speed of 50 rpm. Recycled poly(vinyl chloride)/acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (PVCr/NBR) blends were also prepared as comparison. It was found that the dynamic vulcanization and the addition of acrylic acid improved the stabilization torque, mechanical energy, stress at peak, stress at 100% elongation (M₁₀₀), swelling resistance, and thermal stability but decreased the elongation at break of the blends. The introduction of a cross-link into the elastomer phase and better compatibility between PVCr and NBR are responsible for the enhancement of thermal stability and mechanical properties of dynamically vulcanized PVCr/NBR + AAc as evidence from the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the tensile fracture surfaces and infrared spectroscopy study of the dynamically vulcanized of PVCr/NBR + AAc shows.  相似文献
