Improvement of heat resistance and mechanical properties of epoxy resin with nano-Cu-Ni supported RGO

This study reports the synthesis and characterization of epoxy resin/redox graphene/nano-copper-nickel (EP/RGO/Cu-Ni) composites. The RGO/Cu-Ni was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Using dynamic thermodynamic analysis (DMA), the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the modified epoxy resin was increased by 21°C compared to EP. The addition of 1.3 wt% RGO/Cu-Ni to the epoxy matrix resulted in an increase of 79.6% and 161.3% respectively in the tensile strength and impact strength of the new material. Finally, the excellent mechanical properties of EP/RGO/Cu-Ni nanocomposites contribute to the research and development of new high-performance polymer materials.

And Yet It Moves: Oxidation of the Nuclear Autoantigen La/SS-B Is the Driving Force for Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Shuttling

Decades ago, we and many other groups showed a nucleo-cytoplasmic translocation of La protein in cultured cells. This shuttling of La protein was seen after UV irradiation, virus infections, hydrogen peroxide exposure and the Fenton reaction based on iron or copper ions. All of these conditions are somehow related to oxidative stress. Unfortunately, these harsh conditions could also cause an artificial release of La protein. Even until today, the shuttling and the cytoplasmic function of La/SS-B is controversially discussed. Moreover, the driving mechanism for the shuttling of La protein remains unclear. Recently, we showed that La protein undergoes redox-dependent conformational changes. Moreover, we developed anti-La monoclonal antibodies (anti-La mAbs), which are specific for either the reduced form of La protein or the oxidized form. Using these tools, here we show that redox-dependent conformational changes are the driving force for the shuttling of La protein. Moreover, we show that translocation of La protein to the cytoplasm can be triggered in a ligand/receptor-dependent manner under physiological conditions. We show that ligands of toll-like receptors lead to a redox-dependent shuttling of La protein. The shuttling of La protein depends on the redox status of the respective cell type. Endothelial cells are usually resistant to the shuttling of La protein, while dendritic cells are highly sensitive. However, the deprivation of intracellular reducing agents in endothelial cells makes endothelial cells sensitive to a redox-dependent shuttling of La protein.     

Ion beam synthesis and doping of photonic nanostructures

Optically-active silica nanowires are produced by metal-induced growth on silicon substrates using ion-implantation, with two different strategies employed for their fabrication. The first is based on Er implantation of nanowires produced by a thin-film Pd catalyst layer, and the second employing implanted Er as both the catalyst and dopant. The luminescence properties of the resulting Er-doped silica nanowires are reported and compared with similarly implanted fused silica samples. Comparison shows that the luminescence lifetime of Er is increased by incorporation within the nanowires due to a reduction in the density of available optical states in these structures. Additional details of the synthesis, structure and properties of these functionalised nanowires are also presented.     

Dependence of PXR beam performance on the operation of the pulsed electron linac

Advanced applications of parametric X-ray radiation (PXR) such as energy-dispersive X-ray absorption fine structure (DXAFS) analysis and phase-contrast imaging have been developed at the Laboratory for Electron Beam Research and Application (LEBRA) of Nihon University. To improve the electron beam quality and geometrical stability of the target crystal, the cooling-water system for the linac and the PXR target was replaced with a new one capable of more precise control. As a result, the reliability of the experimental data in PXR applications, especially in X-ray imaging, has improved. The effect of the electron beam focusing on the target crystal was also investigated. The results of X-ray imaging with a long propagation distance and measurement of the time-structure of the PXR intensity suggest that the correlation between the electron beam profile and the X-ray coherence is rather complicated. It is possible that incident electrons cause some deformation of the target crystal, becoming the dominant factor restricting the quality of intense PXR.     

Chemical fingerprinting of whitewares from Nanwa site of the Chinese Erlitou state

Whitewares are among the most significant finds from Erlitou, China’s earliest state (c. 1900-1500 BC). They were primarily discovered in small numbers from elite tombs of a few sites, leading to the hypothesis that they were made at only a few places and then circulated as prestige items. Recent archaeological work indicates Nanwa may be a whiteware production site. To facilitate determining provenances, we compare the ICP-MS trace elements and TIMS Sr isotopes of Nanwa whitewares with those from Tang dynasty (618-907 AD) Gongxian kilns and Song dynasty (960-1279 AD) Ding kilns. Although all were made of white-firing kaolinic clays, each of the three groups shows a different chemical composition. Furthermore, samples from Nanwa are chemically consistent and restricted in a way analogous to those from Gongxian and Ding, implying that Nanwa whiteware was probably produced in situ. In addition, Gongxian and Ding samples define two separate linear arrays in their ⁸⁷Rb/⁸⁶Sr versus ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios, demonstrating that the clays for these samples are respectively related geochemically. Nanwa samples fall out of the linear arrays of both Gongxian and Ding, indicating that Nanwa whiteware clays were not derived from the same source rock as Gongxian clays, although the two sites are only some 25.5 km apart. In sum, beyond the general similarity of kaolinic clays used at Nanwa, Gongxian and Ding and the geographical proximity of those sites, finer distinctions of elemental and Sr isotopic contents indicate relatively unique chemical characteristics for each group. These traits provide valuable criteria to source traded ceramics of uncertain origins.     

Preparation of redox fibers containing hydroxy‐alkyl amino groups and their adsorptive properties toward Au(III)

Three kinds of redox fibers (fibers II, III, and IV) are prepared by amination of the reactive chloromethylated poly(vinyl acetate) grafting polystyrene‐divinylbenzene fiber (fiber I) with diethanolamine, ethanolamine, or triethanolamine. The N‐content of the fibers is 2.26, 2.71, and 1.86 mmol g⁻¹, respectively. Results of static adsorption experiments show that the adsorption amount of fibers II, III, and IV toward Au(III) reaches 550 mg g⁻¹, 620 mg g⁻¹, and 409 mg g⁻¹, respectively, between pH 2.0 and pH 3.0. Some adsorbed Au(III) can be reduced to Au(0). The reduction percentage of Au(III) adsorbed by fiber II increases with rising pH value of the solution and can be as high as 87% at pH 5.0. The amount of Au(III) adsorbed by fiber II increases with solution temperature, but decreases with ionic strength of the solution. The adsorption amount of fibers II and III toward Au(III) is less in ethanol or in acetacetate medium than in water. Kinetic adsorption data indicates that 50 min is needed for fiber II to adsorb half of its saturate adsorption amount of Au(III). It was proved by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, and electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis determinations that the carbon atoms connecting with the hydroxy groups near the nitrogen atoms were easily oxidized into carbonyl ones during redox adsorption reaction of fibers II, III, and IV with Au(III). Some grains of gold adsorbed on fiber II were discovered under scanning electron microscopy. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 73: 47–54, 1999
