Effect of hydraulic coefficient on membrane performance for rejection of emerging contaminants

2018

International audience; The efficient removal of Endocrine Disruptive Chemicals (EDCs) namely oxybenzone and atrazine using polysulfone (PSf) composite membranes is reported in this article. A negatively charged hydrophilic mixed matrix membrane was prepared by using Polyaniline modified halloysite nanotubes (PANi-HNT) and polysulfone. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and attenuated total reflectance infrared (ATR-IR) technique confirm the conversion of Halloysite nanotubes to Polyaniline modified halloysite nanotubes and their presence in membrane matrix. The microvoids observable in the SEM images depict the internal structure of the membrane. Further, increasing in the water uptake and decrea…

Synthesis and Characterization of Isotactic Poly(1-hexene)/Branched Polyethylene Multiblock Copolymer via Chain Shuttling Polymerization Technique

2018

Understanding from the underlying mechanism of chain shuttling polymerization (CSP) is limited due to scarceness of successful reports and incompetence of traditional characterization techniques to distinguish blocky structures. Here, a simple synthesis approach for production of an isotactic poly(1-hexene)/branched polyethylene multiblock copolymer from a 1-hexene monomer is presented. Resulting copolymers can be easily characterized because of their solubility in most organic solvents. This novel blocky architecture is synthesized using ansa-ethylenebis(1-η5-indenyl)zirconium dichloride and α-diimine nickel(II) bromide catalysts. While the former participates in 1,2-enchainment of monomer…

High-pressure synthesis of CO and syngas from CO2 reduction using Ni-N-doped porous carbon electrocatalyst

2022

Abstract Electrochemical conversion of CO2 to CO or syngas (CO/H2 mixture) is considered one of the most promising approaches to valorise waste-CO2. To develop the process on industrial scale, it would be necessary to use selective and inexpensive electrodes and to obtain high productivities with low energy consumption. In this frame, Ni−NC catalysts are considered among the most interesting ones because of their relatively low cost, high faradaic efficiency in CO ( F E C O ), and high stability. However, up to now, quite low productivities were obtained as a result of low current densities achieved in aqueous electrolytes. In this work, we have evaluated the performances of a Ni−NC electro…

Polymorph acceptor-based triads with photoinduced TADF for UV sensing

2021

Abstract In contrast to many donor–acceptor type organic luminophores exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), two deep blue TADF emitters designed in this work contain only typical electron accepting moieties with different electron accepting abilities. Derivatives of benzophenone and diphenylsulfone substituted with phenothiazine-5,5-dioxide donor moieties were synthesized and studied. In addition to the TADF, green to blue emission color switching and strong fluorescence intensity enhancement by more than 60 times was detected for THF solution of the derivative of phenothiazine-5,5-dioxide and benzophenone under increase of UV excitation dose. We proved by a variety of…

A green method to prepare nanosilica modified graphene oxide to inhibit nanoparticles re-aggregation during melt processing

2017

Abstract A graphene oxide-silica nanohybrid (GOS), self-assembled into a lasagna -like structure, was prepared in water and used as a filler for the melt preparation of polyamide 6 (PA6)-based nanocomposites. For sake of comparison, PA6-based materials were prepared under the same processing conditions by adding GO only or a physical mixture of GO and silica (GO+S). All the materials were characterized from a morphological, spectroscopic, thermal, dynamic-mechanical (DMA) and mechanical point of view. For all the nanocomposites, the interphase was studied either by analyzing loss factor plots coming from DMA measurements and by implementing a novel approach, i.e. combining solvent extractio…

Polyoxometalate-based metal-organic frameworks for boosting electrochemical capacitor performance

2019

Abstract Polyoxometalate-based metal-organic frameworks (POMOFs) possess promising applications as capacitors. Herein, we report the syntheses, structures and electrochemical properties of five copper-containing POMOFs: [CuI4H2(btx)5(PW12O40)2]·2H2O (1), [CuIICuI3(H2O)2(btx)5(PWVI10WV2O40)]·2H2O (2), [CuI6(btx)6(PWVI9WV3O40)]·2H2O (3), [CuI4H2(btx)5(PMo12O40)2]·2H2O (4) and [CuIICuI3(btx)5(SiMoVI11MoVO40)]·4H2O (5) (btx = 1,4-bis(triazol-1-ylmethyl) benzene) with potential applications as capacitors. Compounds 1–3 contain the same Keggin-type polyoxometalate (POM) although with different oxidation states, allowing the analysis of the effect of the electronic population on the capacitance pe…

An ultrasonic-assisted process for copper recovery in a des solvent: Leaching and re-deposition

2017

Abstract The continuous growth of the electronic equipment market has led to an increased amount of scraping that it becomes necessary to recover. A hydrometallurgical method for copper and precious metal recovery from e-waste must consist of a number of steps: leaching, ion separation and subsequent electrochemical re-deposition of the target metal. Although this task is achievable in aqueous solutions, it requires strong acid or cyanide solutions. The aim of the study is to develop a new environmentally benign process by using a Deep Eutectic Solvent (DES), a form of cheap and safe ionic liquid, as an electrolyte for both leaching and electrodeposition. The experiments were conducted in a…
