甲基橙合成实验的改进

实验室合成甲基橙的传统方法为低温二步法,存在着条件难控制、费时、费工收率低的问题。在常温下用一步法合成甲基橙,结果表明：室温下在反应器内一次性加入对氨基苯磺酸、亚硝酸钠和水,边搅拌边慢慢滴加N,N-二甲基苯胺,滴加完毕搅拌反应20min,此合成方法收率可达85％左右。比传统低温二步法收率提高18％。通过对不同实验方法所得产品的红外光谱检验,常温下一步法合成与低温下二步法合成的产品光谱曲线基本一致。     

Synthesis and characterization of novel hybrid polyoxazoline‐grafted multiwalled carbon nanotubes

The novel hybrid polyoxazoline‐grafted multiwalled carbon nanotubes (POZO‐grafted MWNTs) were synthesized by the reaction of partially hydrolyzed polyoxazolines (Hydrolyzed‐POZO) and MWNTs having carboxylic acid groups (MWNT‐COOH) in the presence of DCC as a condensing agent. Hydrolyzed‐POZO (degree of hydrolysis, 20.2 mol % by ¹H‐NMR) were produced from the hydrolysis of polyoxazolines in an aqueous NaOH solution at reflux for 72 h. MWNT‐COOH were prepared by acid treatment of pristine MWNTs. The composition, structure, thermal property, and surface morphology of the novel hybrid POZO‐grafted MWNTs were fully characterized by FT‐IR, Raman, ¹H‐NMR, DSC, TGA, SEM, and TEM. The obtained POZO‐grafted MWNTs are well soluble in various organic solvents and water. It was observed that the glass transition temperature (T_g) of POZO‐grafted MWNTs was lower than that of Hydrolyzed‐POZO due to the absence of hydrogen bonding interactions between Hydrolyzed‐POZO itself caused by the incorporation with MWNTs. It was also found that Hydrolyzed‐POZO was homogeneously attached to the surfaces of MWNTs through the “grafting‐to” method. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010     

Low-temperature methanol synthesis in a circulating slurry bubble reactor

A circulating slurry bubble reactor was developed to synthesise methanol via methyl formate from the gas mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen at low temperature. The strategy for designing and scaling up the bubble reactor involved a preliminary understanding of fluid dynamics in a cold model, continuous operations under industrial conditions and a parallel experiment in an autoclave. Per-pass syngas conversion was investigated during 100-h operations. The axial profile of solid catalyst concentration was measured just before the shutdown and the composition of liquid product was analysed after the shutdown. These results show that the circulating slurry bubble column will become a potential reactor for the commercial process of low-temperature methanol synthesis after the catalyst system has been improved.

Polyol-Derived Alkoxide/Hydroxide Base Catalysts II: Transesterification Reactions

Biodiesel, fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), was produced by transesterification of canola oil with methanol in the presence of a series of alkoxide/hydroxide base catalysts produced from glycerol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,3-propanediol, xylitol, or sorbitol produced by dehydration reaction of sodium hydroxide in the presence of polyols. Transesterification reactions proceeded efficiently in the presence of sodium alkoxide catalysts prepared at three different mole ratios of sodium hydroxide to glycerol (1:1, 2:1, and 3:1). The production of methyl ester during the course of the reaction was determined repeatedly and the reaction progress was compared with that achieved in a reaction catalyzed by freshly prepared anhydrous sodium methoxide as a standard catalyst. Sodium alkoxide/hydroxide catalysts activity during the first 2 min of the reaction was in the order of: sorbitol < xylitol < sodium methoxide < 1,2-propanediol < 1,3-propanediol < glycerol regardless of the mole ratio of sodium hydroxide to glycerol. All catalysts showed a higher methyl ester accumulation at higher ratios of sodium hydroxide to polyol and had the following order 1:1 < 2:1 < 3:1 (sodium hydroxide:glycerol). Several of these catalysts were as powerful as sodium methoxide in catalyzing the transesterification reaction at the same mole concentration. All alkoxide/hydroxide catalysts resulted in a high FAME accumulation (>95 wt%) in a single transesterification batch reaction.     

Preparation and Properties of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA)/Organoclay/Compatibilizer Nanocomposites: Effects of Organoclay Loading and Methyl Ethyl Ketone

Ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA)/organoclay/compatibilizer nanocomposites were produced using a melt compounding technique in an internal mixer, Haake Rheometer, at 120°C and 50 rpm rotor speed. Effects of organoclay loading (from 2 to 10 phr—parts per hundred of resin and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), used as a compatibilizer, on the processing properties, tensile properties, morphology, thermal degradation, and water absorption behavior of EVA/organoclay nanocomposites were studied. Results indicate that the presence of organoclay increase the processing torque, tensile properties, thermal degradation, and resistance to water absorption. The optimum organoclay loading was achieved at 2 phr. This was caused by the dispersion state of individual silicate layers (intercalation/exfoliation) in EVA matrix. The intercalation/exfoliation structure affects the properties of EVA/organoclay nanocomposites as evidenced from the morphology studies such as x-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) evaluation. The addition of MEK has the ability to improve the tensile properties, thermal degradation, and slightly reduces the resistance of water permeation of EVA/organoclay nanocomposites. The enhanced properties were seen as a result of the better matrix and filler interaction. The EVA/organoclay/MEK nanocomposites shows better intercalation/exfoliation of individual silicate layers in the EVA matrix as indicated by TEM. Moreover, the XRD evaluation shows that intercalation/exfoliation of the organoclay was formed in the EVA matrix.

Comparing emulsion polymerization of methacrylate-monomers with different hydrophilicity

A comprehensive experimental study concerning the influence of various types of initiator-emulsifier systems on emulsion polymerization of methacrylate monomers (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), methyl methacrylate (MMA) and butyl methacrylate (BMA)) reveals interesting relations between initiator and surfactant hydrophilicity on the one hand and the hydrophilicity of the monomers on the other hand. For the water-soluble HEMA stable latexes are only obtained if hydrophobic initiators such as 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile or dibenzoyl peroxide in combination with alkyl sulfate surfactants with carbon chain lengths greater than 10 or surface active initiators of the 2,2′-azobis(N-2′-methylpropanoyl-2-amino-alkyl-1)-sulfonate type with alkyl chain lengths greater than 8 are employed. Stable nano size range poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) particles have been prepared also by batch emulsion polymerization using ionic surface active initiators (inisurfs). The results clearly show that the formation of stable latex particles requires a proper choice of the initiator-emulsifier system regarding its hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance. The PHEMA particles prepared with surface-active initiators keep their identity and spherical shape even in the dried state whereas in the case of the other initiator-emulsifier systems complete coagulation and coalescence occurs during drying.     

The beneficial effect of small amount of water in the ambient temperature atom transfer radical homo and block co-polymerization of methacrylates

ATRP of several methacrylates viz. methyl methacrylate (MMA), ethyl methacrylate (EMA), n-butyl methacrylate (nBMA), t-butyl methacrylate (tBMA), benzyl methacrylate (BzMA) and (N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) has been studied in neat as well as aqueous (up to 12 vol% water) acetone at 35 °C using CuCl/bipyridine (bpy) catalyst and ethyl 2-bromoisobutyrate as the initiator. Addition of water significantly enhances the rate of polymerization without losing control. Unlike CuCl/bpy the CuBr/bpy catalyst gives poor control which is attributed to the lower solubility and consequent heterogeneity in the latter case. Of the other ligands used with the CuCl catalyst viz. o-phenanthroline (o-phen), 1,1,4,7,7-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA), 1,1,4,7,10,10-hexamethyltriethylenetetramine (HMTETA), Me₆TREN only o-phen offers reasonably good control. The CuCl/bpy catalyst system has been used also in preparing some di- and tri-block copolymers with reasonably low polydispersity index (PDI) at ambient temperature (35 °C) using aqueous acetone as the solvent. The following block copolymers have been prepared PMMA-tBMA, PMMA-b-tBMA-b-MMA, PMMA-DMAEMA, by this method.
