摘要:
Organometallic redox mediator compounds, such as substituted ferrocenes or other metallocenes, and redox polymers comprising the organometallic redox mediators are described. The organic groups of the organometallic redox mediators can be substituted with multiple (e.g., at least three or at least four) electron-donating substituents, which can reduce the redox potential of the redox mediator compared to the corresponding unsubstituted redox mediator. Electrodes coated with the redox polymers or blends comprising the redox polymers are described, as are related electrochemical sensors. In addition, methods of using the sensors to detect biological analytes of interest, such as glucose or ketones, are described.

Paints and coatings that change the coated surface from hydrophobic to a hydrophilic, self-cleaning surface when exposed to atmosphere are described. The compositions include a plurality of boronic acid functionalized polymers, and a blocking agent contacting at least one of the plurality of boronic acid, wherein the blocking agent is configured to be removed by a stimulus to provide a renewable hydrophilic, self-cleaning polymer coating.

A method of improving the adhesion of metathesis compositions, such as ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) compositions, to a substrate is disclosed, in which an adhesion promoter is added to a polymerizable resin composition in order to improve the adhesion of the polymerizing resin to a substrate material. The addition of the adhesion promoter has been found to provide beneficial improvements in the adhesion of metathesis, especially ROMP, compositions to substrates, particularly glass surfaces, leading to improved characteristics in ROMP materials formed therefrom. The adhesion promoter generally comprises a functionalized silane compound and a peroxide compound. A ROMP composition is further disclosed comprising a cyclic olefin, a ROMP metathesis catalyst, and the adhesion promoter. Polymer products produced via metathesis (ROMP) reactions of the invention may be utilized to provide a wide range of materials and in a variety of composite applications. The invention has utility in the fields of catalysis, organic synthesis, and polymer and materials chemistry and manufacture.

摘要:
Rare earth elements (REEs) play an essential role in our modern society, being critical resources for the growing electronic devices and renewable energy technologies. For the reversible capture and release of REEs, we designed and synthesized a redox-copolymer poly(ferrocenylpropyl methacrylamide-co-methacrylic acid) (P(FPMAm-co-MAA)) that combines an ion-exchange carboxylic acid group for REE adsorption, and an redox-active ferrocene moiety for electrochemical regeneration. By molecularly tuning the copolymer composition, efficient adsorption uptake could be achieved alongside electrochemically regenerated adsorbent reuse. The copolymer sorbent showed stoichiometric binding for yttrium (Y), cerium (Ce), neodymium (Nd), europium (Eu), gadolinium (Gd), and dysprosium (Dy) based on carboxylic acid active site.

The invention provides dispersed inorganic mixed metal oxide pigment compositions in a non-aqueous media utilizing a polyester dispersant having a terminal hydroxyl, tertiary amine or quaternized amine anchoring group and a mixed metal oxide pigment. The metal oxide pigment is of the type used to colour ceramic or glass articles. A milling process using beads is also described to reduce the mixed metal oxide particle size to the desired range. A method of using the mixed metal oxide dispersion to digitally print an image on a ceramic or glass article using the dispersion jetted through a nozzle and firing the coloured article is also described.
