The exfoliation of two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets (h-BNNSs) from bulk hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) materials has received intense interest owing to their fascinating physical, chemical, and biological properties. Numerous exfoliation techniques offer scalable approaches for harvesting single-layer or few-layer h-BNNSs. Their structure is very comparable to graphite, and they have numerous significant applications owing to their superb thermal, electrical, optical, and mechanical performance. Exfoliation from bulk stacked h-BN is the most cost-effective way to obtain large quantities of few layer h-BN. Herein, numerous methods have been discussed to achieve the exfoliation of h-BN, each with advantages and disadvantages. Herein, we describe the existing exfoliation methods used to fabricate single-layer materials. Besides exfoliation methods, various functionalization methods, such as covalent, non-covalent, and Lewis acid–base approaches, including physical and chemical methods, are extensively described for the preparation of several h-BNNS derivatives. Moreover, the unique and potent characteristics of functionalized h-BNNSs, like enhanced solubility in water, improved thermal conductivity, stability, and excellent biocompatibility, lead to certain extensive applications in the areas of biomedical science, electronics, novel polymeric composites, and UV photodetectors, and these are also highlighted.Synthesis methods for the exfoliation of BNNSs and BNNS functionalization methods are reviewed. 相似文献

Erythrocyte shape changes are known to occur in vivo and can readily be induced in vitro. We have analysed the influence of increasing stomatocytosis produced by 0-0.64 mmol l-1 chlorpromazine and increasing echinocytosis induced with 0-120 mmol l-1 salicylate or 0-8 mmol l-1 2,4-dinitrophenol on suspension viscosities. The morphological index of each sample was determined and related to the suspension viscosity. It was found that the viscosity was increased by echinocytosis in dextran-free solutions, where no aggregation occurred. The viscosity could be normalized by retransforming echinocytes into discocytes. Under conditions with erythrocyte aggregation (suspension with 4 g dl-1 dextran 70, low shear rate: 0.1 s-1) a small degree of echinocytosis produced the highest viscosity, whereas at higher degrees of echinocytosis the ability to aggregate was reduced and the viscosity was similar to that of discocytes or stomatocytes. Erythrocytes incubated in hypotonic medium (constant cell number/volume) had a higher viscosity than cells in iso- or hypertonic medium. Severely hypotonic medium led to sphering of erythrocytes which reduced the ability of these cells to aggregate and hence decreased the viscosity of suspensions with dextran at low shear rate. The results indicate that discocytes have the lowest viscosity and thus the best oxygen transport efficiency and that iso- to hypertonicity provides a lower viscosity and better oxygen transport efficiency than hypotonicity. These results may contribute to the understanding of blood flow in health and disease. 相似文献

STUDY DESIGN: In human specimens the influence of the iliolumbar ligament on sacroiliac joint stability was tested during incremental moments applied to the sacroiliac joints. OBJECTIVES: To assess whether the iliolumbar ligament is able to restrict sacroiliac joint mobility in embalmed cadavers. BACKGROUND: Firstly, the sacroiliac joint can play an important role in non-specific low back pain; hence, its mobility and stability are of special interest. Secondly, the iliolumbar ligament is considered to be an important source of chronic low back pain. Data on a functional relation between the iliolumbar ligament and sacroiliac joint mobility are lacking. METHODS: In 12 human specimens an incremental moment was applied to the sacroiliac joint to induce rotation in the sagittal plane. After the assessment of the relationship between rotation angle and moment in the intact situation, specific parts of the iliolumbar ligaments were transected. After each partial transection the measurements were repeated. RESULTS: Sacroiliac joint mobility in the sagittal plane was significantly increased after a total cut of both iliolumbar ligaments. This increase was in particular due to the transection of a specific part of the iliolumbar ligament, the ventral band. CONCLUSIONS: The main conclusions are: (a) the iliolumbar ligaments restrict sacroiliac joint sagittal mobility; (b) the ventral band of the iliolumbar ligament contributes most to this restriction. RELEVANCE: In embalmed human cadavers, the mobility of the sacroiliac joint increases after sequential cutting of specific parts of the iliolumbar ligaments. It can be expected that severance of this ligament during surgery will lead to increase of mobility and hence loss of stability of the sacroiliac joint. As a consequence adjacent structures will be affected. This may well be a cause of pain in patients with failed back surgery. 相似文献

The composition of Mn1−xFexO2 (x = 0–0.15) was synthesized by a hydrothermal method at 140 °C for 5 hours of reaction time. Investigations were carried out including XRD, FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, FESEM, and TEM for crystallographic phase analysis. Furthermore, XPS and XAS were used to analyze the oxidation states of Mn and dopant Fe in the octahedron sites. For electrical characterizations, an impedance analyzer was used to explore the conductivity and dielectric properties. It was discovered that the undoped MnO2 possessed an α-MnO2 structure performing (2 × 2) tunnel permitting K+ insertion and had a nanorod morphology. The Fe ion that was doped into MnO2 caused a phase transformation from α-MnO2 to Ramsdellite R-MnO2 after x = 0.15 was reached and the tunnel dimension changed to (2 × 1). Furthermore, this caused increased micro-strain and oxygen vacancies. An oxidation state analysis of Mn and substituted Fe in the octahedron sites found mixed 3+ and 4+ states. Electrical characterization revealed that the conductivity of Fe-doped MnO2 is potentially electron influenced by the oxidation state of the cations in the octahedron sites, the micro-strain, the dislocation density, and the movement of K+ ions in the tunnel.Phase transformation from initially α-MnO2 to R-MnO2 due to Fe-doping cause modification of interatomic distances affects to the electrical properties. 相似文献

Accurate acoustic characterisation is an essential component of any experimental investigation concerning the use and development of microbubble contrast agents. It is of increasing importance as applications such as therapy and molecular and quantitative imaging are investigated. Such characterisation is generally conducted in the laboratory in the form of bulk acoustic studies or optical observation of single bubbles using high speed photography in a water tank containing "out-gassed" water. The approach is widely used in acoustics to prevent inaccurate measurements being made due to the presence of gas bubbles settling on instrumentation, however, the term is often used to cover a range of water preparation techniques and the final gas content of the water is not usually stated. This technical note demonstrates the influence of gas content on the stability of microbubble contrast agents and concludes that characterisation should always be conducted in equilibrated, gas-saturated water to ensure accurate and repeatable measurements are made. 相似文献

Macrolide antibiotics possess a variety of actions other than antimicrobial activities. To determine the effects of long-term administration of clarithromycin (CAM) on the amount and physical properties of sputum in patients with clinical conditions associated with excessive airway secretions, we conducted the present study in a parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled fashion. Patients were divided into two groups: the first group (n = 16) received CAM (100 mg, twice a day) for 8 weeks, and the second group (n = 15) received placebo. In evaluating airway secretion, the daily amount of expectorated sputum, solid composition, viscoelastic properties (including elastic modulus and dynamic viscosity), and sputum microbiology were assessed. CAM decreased sputum production from 51 +/- 6 to 24 +/- 3 g/day after treatment, whereas placebo had no effect. The bacterial density and sputum flora were unaltered. In the group receiving CAM, the percent solid composition and elastic modulus increased from 2.44% +/- 0.29% to 3.01% +/- 0.20% and 66 +/- 7 to 87 +/- 8 dyne/cm2 (P < 0.05), respectively, but the dynamic viscosity remained unchanged. These results suggest that long-term treatment with CAM reduces the amount of sputum production, probably by inhibiting airway secretions, and increases sputum elasticity. 相似文献

Rotation viscosimetry, a simple and easily reproducible method, has been employed in studies of the gastric mucus rheologic characteristics. Examinations of 66 patients with peptic ulcers and of 17 normal subjects have demonstrated a high diagnostic value of the reduction of the elasticity range and of the effective viscosity of the native gastric mucus. 相似文献

Difference in thermal stability of two commercially available canola oils prepared by either expeller-extraction (EE) or solvent-extraction (SE) method was investigated. After 5 days consecutive deep-fry, content of oxidized-triacylglycerols (oxTAGs) in SE oil increased by 250.0% compared to its original status. However, 62.5% increase of oxTAGs in EE oil occurred, indicating that EE oil exhibits superior thermal stability to SE oil. Antioxidant capacity of EE oil was highly retained and loss rate of tocopherols in EE oil was much slower than in SE oil during deep-fry. Lipidomics showed that although there was no significant difference in molecular profile of either triacylglycerols or diacylglycerols between two oils, EE oil was characterized with 19 times higher phosphatidylcholine contents than SE oil. Considering no difference in antioxidant capacity between the two oils in their original status, it is proposed that synergetic mechanism is simultaneously initiated by antioxidant compounds and phosphatidylcholines, which plays key roles for maintaining better thermo-stability of vegetable oil during deep-fry.Difference in thermal stability of two commercially available canola oils prepared by either expeller-extraction (EE) or solvent-extraction (SE) method was investigated. 相似文献

Nutrients reach the body through the food delivery system, interacting with intestinal mucus and gut microbiota for effective absorption. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible interactions between soluble soy hull polysaccharide (SSHP), gut microbiota and mucin. The digestive environment of the porcine intestinal mucus was simulated, and the changes of the SSHP–mucin mixed system were monitored by shear rheology, interface measurement, scanning electron microscopy, particle size distribution, and microbial sequencing. First, based on scanning electron microscopy and particle size distribution, it was shown that the gut microbiota undergoes glycolysis in different mucus. The apparent viscosity and viscoelastic properties of the mucus during fermentation were then determined using shear rheology. Compared with the control and microwave-assisted citric acid extraction of soy hull polysaccharide (MCSP), the viscosity of microwave-assisted oxalic acid extraction of soy hull polysaccharide (MOSP) increased significantly (p < 0.05) at 24 h, and the thixotropy of all samples increased. The adsorption properties of mucin at the air–liquid interface were analyzed by the interfacial tension technique. As the fermentation time increased, the adsorption performance of the SSHP mucus increased, the interfacial tension decreased, and the expansion modulus increased. Moreover, according to high-throughput 16S rDNA sequencing analysis, the gut microbiota community structure changed significantly after ingestion of MCSP and MOSP, and the abundances of Bifidobacteriaceae and Lactobacillaceae increased to varying degrees. In summary, polysaccharides can be used by the intestinal flora to increase the viscosity and thixotropy of the mucus system, to increase the interfacial strength, and promote the proliferation of intestinal probiotics. This study provides useful insights for the potential application of SSHP.SSHP increased the viscoelasticity of the interfacial film and reduced the interfacial tension at the air–water interface by interacting with mucin. SSHP increased the ratio of Proteobacteria and Firmicutes and promoted the growth of probiotics. 相似文献

A series of six new Cu(i) complexes with ([Cu(N-{4-R}pyridine-2-yl-methanimine)(PPh3)Br]) formulation, where R corresponds to a donor or acceptor p-substituent, have been synthesized and were used to study self-association effects on their structural and electrochemical properties. X-ray diffraction results showed that in all complexes the packing is organized from a dimer generated by supramolecular π stacking and hydrogen bonding. 1H-NMR experiments at several concentrations showed that all complexes undergo a fast-self-association monomer–dimer equilibrium in solution, while changes in resonance frequency towards the high or low field in specific protons of the imine ligand allow establishing that dimers have similar structures to those found in the crystal. The thermodynamic parameters for this self-association process were calculated from dimerization constants determined by VT-1H-NMR experiments for several concentrations at different temperatures. The values for KD (4.0 to 70.0 M−1 range), ΔH (−1.4 to −2.6 kcal mol−1 range), ΔS (−0.2 to 2.1 cal mol−1 K−1 range), and ΔG298 (−0.8 to −2.0 kcal mol−1 range) are of the same order and indicate that the self-dimerization process is enthalpically driven for all complexes. The electrochemical profile of the complexes shows two redox Cu(ii)/Cu(i) processes whose relative intensities are sensitive to concentration changes, indicating that both species are in chemical equilibrium, with the monomer and the dimer having different electrochemical characteristics. We associate this behaviour with the structural lability of the Cu(i) centre that allows the monomeric molecules to reorder conformationally to achieve a more adequate assembly in the non-covalent dimer. As expected, structural properties in the solid and in solution, as well as their electrochemical properties, are not correlated with the electronic parameters usually used to evaluate R substituent effects. This confirms that the properties of the Cu(i) complexes are usually more influenced by steric effects than by the inductive effects of substituents of the ligands. In fact, the results obtained showed the importance of non-covalent intermolecular interactions in the structuring of the coordination geometry around the Cu centre and in the coordinative stability to avoid dissociative equilibria.Organized crystal packing from non-covalent dimers and the self-dimerization in solution of Cu(NN′)(PPh3)Br] were characterized. Differences in Cu(ii)/Cu(i) potentials between the monomer and dimer are modulated by the non-covalent interactions. 相似文献

The development of new materials and the understanding of the microstructure formation of electrodes have become increasingly important for improving Li-ion battery performance. In this study, we investigate the effect of solid content on the rheological properties of and the microstructures in the cathode slurry prepared from Ni-rich materials. With long-chain structures, PVDF molecules can change their configurations when they come into contact with the solid particles in slurries, and their bridging function can change with the solid content in the slurry. Below the optimum content, particle sedimentation easily takes place. Above the optimum content, excessive yield stress is created in the slurry, and this stress is not conducive to homogeneous distribution of the components. The rheological properties of the slurries vary greatly under different solid contents. We investigated the uniformity and stability of the slurry prepared from Ni-rich materials and found that the most suitable solid content of the slurry lies in the range from 63.9% to 66.3%. Our work might assist in the production of high-performance Li-ion batteries that are made using an electrode slurry.There are three main situations in which the uniformity and microstructure of the slurry change with the solid content. 相似文献

Highly emissive two-dimensional (2D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have rarely been reported due to the challenge of inhibiting the aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) caused by π–π stacking between layers. To address this issue, the use of flexible building units is a promising strategy. However, currently reported flexible 2D COFs generally exhibit poor crystallinity, low surface area, etc. and the mechanism of the excellent fluorescence performance for the flexible 2D COFs still needs to be further explored. In this article, a novel flexible 2D COF (DTZ-COF) was synthesized using two π-electron deficient triazine monomers rather than the commonly used one π-electron rich fused aromatic ring under solvothermal conditions. Fortunately, DTZ-COF exhibits excellent crystallinity and high surface area (1276.5131 m2 g−1 and 2087.5502 m2 g−1 for Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) and Langmuir surface area, respectively), which are rarely observed in previously reported flexible 2D COFs. The increased Lewis basic sites endow DTZ-COF with certain advantages in the separation of CO2 and N2. The comparison between flexible DTZ-COF and a non-flexible 2D COF (TPT-TPT-COF) with a similar framework suggests that the introduction of flexible building units can indeed improve the photoluminescence (PL) efficiency. The π-electron deficient DTZ-COF has excellent fluorescence performance and exhibits unique solvent responsiveness, such as fluorescence enhancement in aromatic solvents, and fluorescence quenching in alcohol and water. As a chemical sensor for detection of picric acid (2,4,6-trinitrophenol, TNP), the efficient fluorescence quenching involving both static and dynamic behaviors ensures high selectivity and sensitivity (ppb level).Construction of a novel two-dimensional covalent organic framework with excellent photoluminescence performance using flexible building blocks. 相似文献

A new fluorinated polycarbonate was synthesized by solution polymerization of bisphenol AF, anthracen-9-ylmethyl-4,4-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)pentanoate with triphosgene. This new polycarbonate was used as a host polymer. A traditional chromophore with a D–π–A structure was modified by bisphenol A acrylate affording chromophore A. The large modified group can not only effectively avoid the dipole interaction between chromophores, but also endow the chromophores with the properties of attaching and crosslinking with a host polymer through in situ Diels–Alder “click chemistry” reactions. Such properties can improve both the poling efficiency and the thermal stability of organic electro-optic (EO) polymers. The thermodynamic properties of the crosslinking system showed that the glass transition temperature rose with the increase of the chromophore content. The EO polymer showed a large EO coefficient of about 78.9 pm V−1 at a wavelength of 1310 nm and an excellent long-term stability of about 89% with respect to its initial value and it can be kept after 300 h of heating at 80 °C.A new fluorinated polycarbonate was synthesized by solution polymerization of bisphenol AF, anthracen-9-ylmethyl-4,4-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)pentanoate with triphosgene. 相似文献
