Abstract:
p-Aminophenol (PAP) is an important chemical and pharmaceutical intermediate.Its synthesis from nitrobenzene (NB) has obvious advantages from the view of raw material,and the short reaction process as well as the low energy consumption.However,conventional liquid acid is usually used as catalyst in this reaction,which brings serious corrosion of equipment.Alkali is used to neutralize acid after the reaction to produce a great deal of solid waste of salt.Therefore,green technology for preparation of PAP from NB is of great significance,and becomes one of the hot research topics in these years.Most interests have been focused on searching for benign alternative to conventional liquid acid,and some progresses have been achieved,such as solid acid,acidic ionic liquid,Lewis acid,CO2-H2O system,and bi-functional catalysts with solid acid supported metal nanoparticles.Herein,we review the latest progresses on the hydrogenation of NB to PAP with these environmental benign acid catalysts and give the future development prospects.

Abstract:
Poly (ethylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate)(PEF)/poly (butylene succinate)(PBS) blends were obtained via melt blending,and the factors,such as the blending temperature,blending time,the screw speed and blending ratio on mechanical properties of PEF/PBS blends were studied in details.Their compatibility,thermal property,and mechanical property were investigated by scanning electron microscopy,differential scanning calorimetry,thermogravimetric analysis,and tensile testing and impact testing.When the content of PBS is 15%,the optimal blending processing conditions are mixing the blends at 230℃ for 90 s under the screw rotation speed of 150 r/min.Under the optimal conditions,the compatibility and thermal performance are good,the impact strength and tensile strength are the largest.Compared to PEF,the impact strength and the tensile strength of the blend increase 6 times and approximate 20%,respectively.The results in this work provide a new possibility for the application of biobased polymers.

Abstract:
Three kinds of BiOBr crystal micropowders with different morphological structure have been synthesized via an ethylene glycol solvothermal route using the methylimidazolium bromide type ionic liquids[C4mim]Br,[C8mim]Br and[C12mim]Br as bromo source and soft template.The results from X-ray diffraction (XRD),scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis show that the as-prepared BiOBr products all belong to tetragonal phase in high purity.The BiOBr crystals along (110) lattice plane preferentially grow with the increase of carbon atom number (Cn) of substituent group in ionic liquid cation.The micro sized BiOBr particles clusters are all consisted of nanosize petal-like flakes via self-assembly,which show radial pattern from spherical center.As the Cn number increases,the particle size and surface pores all decrease,but the specific surface area increases.The three BiOBr powders possess different catalytic activity for visible photocatalytic degradation of aniline.The degradation ratios of the aniline solution are 54.13%,78.67% and 95.06% in 280 minutes,respectively.The photogenerated holes should be the main active species in the photodegradation process,but the hydroxyl radical just plays a minor role.

Abstract:
A water-soluble weakly crosslinked xanthan gum (XG) was synthesized using sodium trimetaphosphate (STMP) as a crosslinker,and the synthesis conditions were optimized based on the viscosity of the STMP crosslinked XG (denoted as SP-c-XG) solutions.Effects of electrolyte (NaCl and Ca Cl2) mass fraction (0~5.0%),p H (2~11),and temperature (20~70℃) on the rheological properties of the SP-c-XG solutions were investigated and compared with those of XG solutions.The results show that,under the studied conditions,the rheological curves of both SP-c-XG and XG solutions are pseudoplastic and can be described by Herschel-Bulkley model.The yield stress,apparent viscosity and dynamic moduli of the SP-c-XG and XG solutions initially decrease and then increase with increasing electrolyte concentration,but they initially increase and then decrease with increasing p H.Increasing temperature results in a decrease in these rheological parameter values for both SP-c-XG and XG solutions.The rheological properties of the SP-c-XG solution are similar to those of the XG solution.However,compared with the XG solution,the SP-c-XG solution exhibits higher yield stress and apparent viscosity,especially stronger elasticity and temperature resistance,indicating its use potential in enhanced oil recovery.

[Abstract](409) [FullText HTML] [PDF 3219KB](1)
Abstract:
Nano-porous copper film was prepared by sol-gel electroplating.Using copper sheet as anode,the effects of the plating solution composition,plating time,cathode substrate and plating voltage on the morphology of the plating layer were investigated in the plating voltage at 5 V.Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction methods were utilized to analyze the morphology and crystal forms to obtain the optimum conditions for preparing the copper films.The particle size of the copper film is about 100 nm,grain size is about 25 nm,and an enhanced (111) texture exists in the cooper film.XRD analysis depicts that the attached chitosan gel protects the copper film from being oxidized.The plating current tends to be stable at a low value after a certain time of plating.Chitosan gel prevents further deposition of copper ions in the bath on the substrate.

[Abstract](1009) [FullText HTML] [PDF 937KB](1)
Abstract:
An ITO supported nanostructure manganese dioxide thin film electrode,fabricated by chronoamperometry was evaluated as a potential electrode for electrochemical capacitors.The nucleation mechanism was examined by fitting the experimental data (chronoamperometry) into the Scharifker/Hills nucleation models.SEM images of the electrodeposits show that the microstructure of manganese dioxide is affected by the deposition period.The capacity of the three kinds of manganese dioxide electrode materials formed by different nucleation mechanisms was investigated by cycle voltammetry,constant current chargedischarge method and AC impedance.The results show that the nucleation follows an instantaneous nucleation mechanism in the solution of 0.1 mol/L Mn2+ under a 0.365 V step potential,and mixed instantaneous and progressive nucleation mechanism in the solution of 0.01 mol/L Mn2+ under a 0.418 V step potential.The nucleation follows a progressive nucleation mechanism in the solution of 0.5 mmol/L Mn2+ under a 0.515 V step potential.It is obvious that the instantaneous nucleation is beneficial to preparing deposit sediment which has high specific surface area.Compare with other electrolytic deposit materials,this kind of material displays a better capacitance performance,implying that the capacitance performance can be influenced via different deposit approaches.

Abstract:
According to the acidicity difference between the main impurity and benzafibrate,carbon dioxide was introduced into the alkaline product solution to remove the impurity from benzafibrate in the post-treatment process.The yield and content of the treated products were determined to compare the separation effect with different methods of precipitation and recrystallization.Compared with recrystallization,the yield of the product treated with CO2 was increased from 62.5% to 70.9%.The method not only reduced the relatively large solvent consumption and product loss caused by the repeated recrystallization,but also effectively improved the removal rate of impurities and decreased the separation cost.
