摘要:
The application of superhydrophobic wood is majorly limited by its durability when subjected to natural conditions. Herein, the stability of two representative superhydrophobic woods (i.e., Poplar (Populus tomentosa) and Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata)), were prepared via a one-step hydrothermal process using tetrabutyltitanate (Ti(OC4H9)(4), TBOT) and vinyltriethoxysilane (CH2CHSi(OC2H5)(3), VTES) as a co-precursor and sequentially tested under different humidity and temperature conditions. The variables including morphology, water contact angle (WCA), color parameter, chemical components of the surface, and moisture absorption property were characterized using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), WCA measurement, a colorimeter, a Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and a moisture absorption test, respectively. It was found that initial static WCAs of superhydrophobic wood were larger than 150 degrees. Micron-sized cracks were formed on the coatings after the alternating humidity and temperature aging cycles. This lowered the water repellency, but the WCA was still greater than 140 degrees. There was nearly no chemical change of wood after the aging test; the color change between the same species of untreated and superhydrophobic wood was very small, only with a difference of 0.42 and 4.05 in overall color change DE/values for Chinese fir and poplar, respectively. The superhydrophobic coatings had a trivial influence on wood moisture absorption property, which only lowered 3% in poplar and 2% in Chinese fir, respectively. (C) 2017 Published by Elsevier B. V.

摘要:
For lignocellulosic materials, water adsorption is extremely important for its product performance. For gaining a deeper understanding of moisture adsorption mechanisms, the molecular interactions between adsorbed water and a typical lignocellulosic material (i.e., wood) were studied using in-situ microscopic Fourier transform infrared (micro-FTIR) spectroscopy and a specially designed sample cell. The spectral shifts of 1733 cm(-1), 1604cm(-1) and 1236 cm(-1) and different spectra between the moist and dry spectra indicated that carbonyl C=O and C-O groups preferred to combine with water molecules to form hydrogen bonds. From component band analysis of the spectral range of 2900-3700 cm(-1), three peaks at 3178 cm(-1), 3514cm(-1) and 3602 cm(-1) were identified and assigned to strongly, moderately and weakly hydrogen-bonded water molecules, respectively. According to the variation trend of these hydrogen-bonded water molecules, three sections were divided for the adsorption process. Furthermore, the molecular structure of water absorbed by hydrophilic groups of wood in each section was demonstrated. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

摘要:
The pH- and temperature-responsive chitosan-graft-poly(2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate) (CS-g-PDMAEMA) were synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and evidenced by FTIR spectroscopy. Chitosan macroinitiator (CS-Br) was prepared by phthaloylation of amino groups of chitosan and acylation of hydroxyl groups of chitosan with 2-bromoisobutyryl bromide. The pH and temperature responses of the copolymer micelles were characterized by particle diameter and particle size analyzers. The film prepared from CS-g-PDMAEMA was used as a coating film on the surface of the grape. And the film prepared from 1 wt% CS-g-PDMAEMA solution was able to slow the loss of water in grape. The results revealed that the CS-g-PDMAEMA had potential application as active coating materials in the storage of fresh grape.

摘要:
Co-polymer systems of methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resins with different molecular weights were characterized by infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The FTIR and TGA coupled with differential thermogravimetric (DTG) results showed that higher molecular weight of PF resins not only promoted the reaction of isocyanate and PF co-polymer system, but also resulted in a better thermal property of prepared co-polymers. The XRD results revealed that higher molecular weight led to a higher proportion of ordered or crosslinking structures in the hybrid resin system. The relationship between the thermal resistance, mechanical properties and the molecular weights of phenolic resins needs further study.

摘要:
Green fir wood (Pseudotsuga menziesii) was modified with polyethylene glycol (PEG) to produce wood composites for energy storage and conversion. The PEG-modified wood composites were evaluated based on their dimensional stability, durability, and thermal properties by various analytical methods. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results showed the melting temperature and the latent heat of the phase change material (PCM) composite were 26.74 °C and 73.59 J/g, respectively. Thermal cycling tests and thermogravimetric analysis confirmed the composite exhibited good thermal stability, reliability, and chemical stability. All treated specimens were free from noticeable defects, and the addition of a surface varnish coating prevented PEG from leaching. The PEG-modified composites exhibited improved dimensional and thermal performance, which makes this material a potential candidate for economical and green, lightweight building materials.
