In order to prepare waterborne polyurethane with excellent water resistance and thermodynamic properties, a series of side chain fluorinated waterborne polyurethane-urea (FWPU-UA) was synthesized with polytetramethylene ether glycol, N-(2-methyl-1,3-propanediol-2′-)-perfluoro-1-butanesulfonyl amine (NPBA), isophorone diisocyanate, and isophoronediamine. With the increase of NPBA content, the weight loss temperature, glass transition temperature, and tensile strength of FWPU-UA were all improved. Gaussian fitting analysis of infrared data and density functional theory simulation proved that the introduction of fluorine side chains increased the interaction of hydrogen bonding in the FWPU-UA. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis indicated that the aggregation of fluorine atoms on the surface of film were caused by the migration and enrichment of fluorine side chains. Furthermore, the water resistance of polyurethane-urea film could be significantly improved by adding a small amount of NPBA, and the seven-day water absorption rate of polyurethane-urea film was reduced from 30.13% to 12.55%. 相似文献
This study aimed to investigate the microRNA expression profile and the characteristics of lipid metabolism
in the livers of rats undergoing a high-fat diet. Fifty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into a standard chow
group (C group, N = 10) and a high-fat diet group (H group, N = 40). After 12 weeks, the rat body weight, body length,
fat mass, and serum lipid concentration were measured. The expression profile of microRNAs and the gene and protein
expression levels involved in lipid metabolism in rat liver were detected. Body fat and serum lipid concentrations
were all significantly higher in the H group than those in the C group (p < 0.05 or p < 0.01). The expression of 10
microRNAs showed significant differences in the liver (p < 0.05). In particular, the let-7 family expression levels
significantly increased (p < 0.05) in the H group compared with those in the C group. Compared with the C group, the
high-fat diet resulted in low FAS, CPT1A, and ApoAI mRNA expression levels (p < 0.05 or p < 0.01) and high PPARα
and FAT/CD36 mRNA expression levels in the H group rat liver (p < 0.01). Meanwhile, the protein PPARα, FAS,
CPT1A, FAT/CD36, and ApoAI expression levels were all significantly lower in the H group than those in the C group
(p < 0.05 or p < 0.01). In conclusion, the high-fat diet increased the body fat and serum lipid levels and altered the 10
microRNA expression levels in the liver. The high-fat diet may affect hepatic carbohydrate metabolism and increase
ectopic fat accumulation through let-7 family overexpression. The high-fat diet for 12 weeks decreased lipid metabolism
level in the liver, thereby decreasing fatty acid synthesis, oxidation, and transport by down-regulating the PPARα, FAS,
CPT1A, FAT/CD36, and ApoAI protein levels. 相似文献
A series of oriented W-type barium hexaferrites of composition BaZn2Fe16?xScxO27 (where x?=?0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4) has been synthesized by conventional ceramic methods and characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS, FTIR, and VSM. In this work, the effect of trivalent Sc substitution for trivalent Fe on the structure and magnetic properties of Zn2W has been studied. The XRD results showed that all the specimens consisted of single phase of W-type ferrites. EDS analysis confirmed that the content of Ba, Zn, Sc, and Fe were closed to the elemental composition of BaZn2Fe16?xScxO27. The SEM revealed the hexagonal platelet-like structure of the BaZn2Fe16?xScxO27 and the average grain sizes of all samples remain in the range of single domain dimension (0.5 µm?~?1 µm). The SEM also demonstrated that the samples maintained high crystallographic c-axis texture when Sc3+ content was less than 0.4. The SEM results were consistent with magnetic hysteresis loops. As the function of Sc substitution, the squareness ratio (Mr/Ms) ranged from 0.78 to 0.82, which was critical for self-biased application. Moreover, the magnetocrystalline anisotropy field (Ha) decreased. The saturation magnetization (Ms) increased from 53.61 to 54.04 emu/g as x increased from 0 to 0.1, and then it decreased to 46.50 when x > 0.1. The samples showed other excellent magnetic properties, such as appropriate anisotropy field (~?9 kOe),and high coercive fields (~?1300 Oe). Therefore, the prepared Zn2W ferrites are suitable candidate for the microwave devices operated at low frequency.
