The positive outcomes of this study also confirmed that the r-PUF/DAP prepared from oligo-ester-ether-diol not only satisfied the fire safety requirements of polymer applications but also contained a high percentage of postconsumer PET, which could help reduce the amount of recycled polymer materials and improve waste management.We previously discovered a novel method for the preparation of polymer particles that have a cylindrical shape. Polystyrene (PS) or poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) spherical particles were deformed into a cylindrical shape by stirring with a magnetic stirrer in a polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) aqueous solution. In this study, cylindrical "Janus" particles consisting of PS and PMMA were prepared by this stirring method. In the case of spherical Janus particles, cylindrical particles were obtained after stirring; however, the direction of the interface between the PS and PMMA phases was random. selleck inhibitor However, in the case of snowman-like Janus particles, cylindrical Janus particles with the interface at the center of the long axis were successfully prepared. This indicated that the extension direction can be controlled owing to the anisotropic shape and supported the proposed deformation mechanism of the cylindrical particles. Moreover, amphiphilic cylindrical Janus particles were also successfully prepared by hydrolysis of only one phase to introduce carboxy groups.A novel three-dimensional microporous terbium(III) metal-organic framework (Tb-MOF) named as [Tb10 (DBA)6(OH)4(H2O)5]·(H3O)4 (1), was successfully obtained by a solvothermal method based on terbium nitrate and 5-di(2',4'-dicarboxylphenyl) benzoic acid (H5DBA). The Tb-MOF has been characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, thermogravimetry, and fluorescence properties, and the purity was further confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) analysis. Structural analysis shows that there are two kinds of metal cluster species binuclear and tetranuclear, which are linked by H5DBA ligands in two μ7 high coordination fashions into a three-dimensional microporous framework. Fluorescence studies show that the Tb-MOF can detect H2O2, Fe3+, and Cr2O72- with high sensitivity and selectivity and can also be used for electrochemical detection of exposed 2,4,6-trinitrophenylamine (TPA) in water. The highly selective and sensitive detection ability of the Tb-MOF might make it a potential multifunctional sensor in the future.The valuable terpenoids, such as artemisinin acid, have achieved bioproduction in the chassis of microbes recently. In this study, Marchantia paleacea L, a promising plant synthetic biology chassis, was used to explore the possibility of patchoulol production by constructing a synthetic biology pathway composed of FPS and PTS. The experiment results show that the maximum yields based on the cytoplasm and plastid pathway were 621.56 and 1006.45 μg/g, respectively. However, there is no statistically significant difference in the yield of patchoulol between transformant plants with different subcellular compartment-targeting pathways. However, it was found that the highest yield of patchoulol was achieved in transformant plants with similar transcription levels of FPS and PTS. Also, the optimized transcription ratio between PTS and FPS is determined at 1.12 based on statistical analysis and model simulation. Therefore, two kinds of new optimized pathway vectors were constructed. One is based on the fusion protein method, and the other is based on protein expression individually, in which the same promoter and terminator were used to derive the expression of both FPS and PTS. The effect of pathway optimization was tested by transient and stable transformation. The production of patchoulol in transient transformation was the same for the two abovementioned kinds of matching pathway and higher than that for the original pathway. Also, in stable transformation, the yield of patchoulol reached up to 3250.30 μg/g, being three times the maximum content before optimization. It is suggested that M. paleacea is a powerful plant chassis for terpenoid synthetic biology and the matching between enzymes may be the key factor in determining the metabolic flux of the pathway in the study of synthetic biology.A 2,6-bis(2-benzimidazolyl) pyridine-linked silsesquioxane-based semi-branched polymer was synthesized, and its photophysical and metal-sensing properties have been investigated. The polymer is thermally stable up to 285 °C and emits blue in both solid and solution state. The emission of the polymer is sensitive to pH and is gradually decreased and quenched upon protonation of the linkers. The initial emission color is recoverable upon deprotonation with triethylamine. The polymer also shows unique spectroscopic properties in both absorption and emission upon long-term UV irradiation, with red-shifted absorption and emission not present in a simple blended system of phenylsilsesquioxane and linker, suggesting that a long-lived energy transfer or charge separated state is present. In addition, the polymer acts as a fluorescence shift sensor for Zn(II) ions, with red shifts observed from 464 to 528 nm, and reversible binding by the introduction of a competitive ligand such as tetrahydrofuran. The ion sensing mechanism can differentiate Zn(II) from Cd(II) by fluorescence color shifts, which is unique because they are in the same group of the periodic table and possess similar chemical properties. Finally, the polymer system embedded in a paper strip acts as a fluorescent chemosensor for Zn(II) ions in solution, showing its potential as a solid phase ion extractor.The development of efficient advanced functional materials is highly dependent on properties such as morphology, crystallinity, and surface functionality. In this work, hierarchical flowerlike nanostructures of SrTiO3 have been synthesized by a simple template-free solvothermal method involving poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP). Molecular dynamics simulations supported by structural characterization have shown that PVP preferentially adsorbs on 110 facets, thereby promoting the 100 facet growth. This interaction results in the formation of hierarchical flowerlike nanostructures with assembled nanosheets. The petal morphology is strongly dependent on the presence of PVP, and the piling up of nanosheets, leading to nanocubes, is observed when PVP is removed at high temperatures. This work contributes to a better understanding of how to control the morphological properties of SrTiO3, which is fundamental to the synthesis of perovskite-type materials with tailored properties.
