SS/PbO2‐TiO2‐SnO2 composite electrode was synthesized by cyclic voltammetry (CV) method. The morphological structure of the composite was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX), element‐mapping and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The photoelectrochemical and electrochemical properties were considered in 0.5 m H2SO4 solution with and without UV, respectively. The results indicated that the PbO2‐TiO2‐SnO2 composite had good photoelectrochemical properties due to anodic current and exchange current density increased (31.32% and 48.67%, respectively) under UV irradiation. The composite electrode was used as anode for methyl orange (MO) treatment reached 99.51% under UV irradiation. The kinetic of MO degradation followed the pseudo‐ first order with and without UV (R2 = 0.9528 and 0.9684, respectively). Therefore, TiO2 and SnO2 dopped into PbO2 layer, created a composite with good photoelectrocatalytic activity.

The quality of Pacific white shrimp stored at 0 °C during the 10 days was evaluated by the combination of sensory, microbiological and biochemical measurements. Quality index methods (QIM) have been developed to evaluate sensory attributes of shrimp. Total visible count (TVC), K value, histamine, and pH are used to assess microbiological and biochemical indices. The results of TVC and QIM showed that shrimps showed signs of spoilage (lg cfu = 6.4; quality index (QI) = 21.37), which is unacceptable to consumers on day 9. QI quality score increased linearly with storage days. The remaining shelf life of shrimp was estimated from the linear regression equation. The results have found the linear regression equations between the QI, histamine, K value, and hypoxanthine. In addition, the results also showed that hypoxanthine could be considered as an independent quality index such as the K index. The quality of Pacific white shrimp could be classified into four grades: excellent, good, moderately acceptable, and just acceptable basing on the results of sensory and biochemical evaluation.

This study aims to improve the antibacterial effectiveness against Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) of Ti6Al4V alloy by employing functional Ag coating on the alloy's surface. In this study, Ag coating was prepared on Ti6Al4V surface via RF magnetron sputtering, then investigated characteristics and anti‐S. mutans properties of the modified surface's alloy before and after immersing in simulated body fluid (SBF) solution for one month. Data showed that the two coatings inhibited the development of S. mutans colony‐forming units (CFU) at an incubation time until seven days. This study provides a research foundation for further development of surface modification of Ti6Al4V alloy for dental implants to meet the demand of reducing peri‐implant diseases caused by bacteria.

This study investigated the geochemical background values for seven trace elements in topsoil samples collected from highland areas within Cao Bang province, Vietnam. Total concentrations of these elements were determined, revealing the following order of mean concentration: Zn > Cr > Pb > Cu > As > Ni > Co. The background values were calculated using two different methods including iterative 2δ‐technique and 4δ‐outlier test. The 4δ‐outlier test yielded the following background concentrations (dry weight) for the seven elements: As (24.41 ± 12.42 mg kg−1), Co (15.64 ± 10.57 mg kg−1), Cr (49.31 ± 33.41 mg kg−1), Cu (29.77 ± 27.14 mg kg−1), Ni (22.52 ± 13.33 mg kg−1), Pb (38.06 ± 31.48 mg kg−1), Zn (71.79 61.09 mg kg−1). The 2δ‐technique, on the other hand, resulted in the following background concentrations (dry weight) for the same elements: As (8.41 ± 8.57 mg kg−1), Co (5.06 ± 4.31 mg kg−1), Cr (26.72 ± 26.20 mg kg−1), Cu (25.31 ± 24.81 mg kg−1), Ni (8.02 ± 7.83 mg kg−1), Pb (28.12 ± 27.58 mg kg−1), Zn (51.91 ± 49.44 mg kg−1). These results provide valuable baseline data for future environmental assessments and monitoring programs in the region. They also highlight the potential impact of human activities, such as mining, on the geochemical landscape of highland areas.

The growing study of polymer composites has motivated scientists to explore more methodologies to enhance the final demanding properties of polymer composites. Polymer composites have commonly been fabricated using thermosets or thermoplastics with synthetic or natural fillers. Lately, ionic liquids have been applied as coupling agents for polymer composites. In this succinct review, two types of ionic liquids, specifically imidazolium‐ and phosphonium‐based ionic liquids that are applied as coupling agents, are identified. Additionally, the synthesis of ionic liquids with different precursors and reactions is explained. The coupling effect of ionic liquids on the mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties of polymer composites is also succinctly reviewed. The knowledge shown in this review gives a more transparent comprehension of the fabrication of polymer composites coupled with ionic liquids and the essential properties of polymer composites. In conclusion, most imidazolium‐ and phosphonium‐based ionic liquids can improve several mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties of thermoset and thermoplastic composites.

The need of the hour is for the creation of natural fiber‐based, biodegradable cutlery in order to protect our planet from pollution caused by plastic. Soy resin creates a hard eco‐friendly/biodegradable composite when combined with phenol‐formaldehyde/resole and a natural fiber like jute. In this experiment, soy and other ingredients are combined with various weight percentages of resoles. Jute‐modified soy composites are characterized through Fourier transform infra‐red spectroscopy, mechanical testing and found maximum tensile strength of 46.62 MPa. After 8 weeks of microbial degradation testing on the generated composites, it is discovered that the mechanically optimized composite lost only 17.7% of its initial weight. Cutlery pieces are molded using the jute‐soy/jute‐resole modified soy composition, and cytotoxicity testing has shown that they are non‐toxic. Because they are non‐toxic and biodegradable, these composites can be used as a substitute to non‐biodegradable plastic in a range of industries.

In this study, cellulose was first treated with 4‐cyano‐4‐((phenyl carbonothioyl)solfanyl) pentanoic acid to serve as the reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer polymerization (RAFT) agent, then the controlled grafting polymerization of acrylic acid was successfully performed. A well‐defined, cellulose‐graft‐acrylic acid copolymer (Cell‐g‐PAA), has been prepared by RAFT polymerization technique using three different approaches: RAFT agent was prepared by substitution of dithiobenzoate magnesium bromide with 4,4'‐azobis(4‐cyanopentanoic acid) in ethyl acetate as a solvent, mediated cellulose (Cell) block as the macromolecular Cell‐ RAFT agent and (cellulose‐co‐acrylic acid) copolymer with alternating sequence. The resulting (Cell‐RAFT) for “living” free radical polymerization was then heated in the adjacent acrylic acid monomer for the development of the controlled graft copolymer onto cellulose. The structures of the intermediate, graft copolymer were investigated by FT‐IR, DSC, 1H NMR, scanning electron microscopy, and thermo gravimetric. The results demonstrate that the preparation of graft copolymers was successfully confirmed. This approach would provide an extensive classification of molecular designs to obtain modern types of tailored hybrid materials derived from natural polysaccharides and synthetic polymers. Also, using a macro‐initiator is an excellent method for synthesizing new materials.

The synthesis of the UiO‐66/rGO material involved combining UiO‐66 with reduced graphene oxide (rGO). This resulting composite found application in the electrochemical determination of salbutamol (SAL) through modification of a glassy‐carbon electrode (GCE) with UiO‐66/rGO. Differential pulse voltammetry served as the chosen technique, offering a wide linear range spanning 1–160 µm and demonstrating a low limit of detection at 0.84 µm. To ensure the reliability of the electrode, various aspects such as sensitivity, repeatability, reproducibility, and stability were meticulously studied. When applied to the analysis of SAL in swine urine solutions (n = 3), the electrode exhibited good recovery rates. Remarkably, the results obtained through this method correlated well with those acquired using ultra‐high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC).

Differential pulse voltammetry served as the chosen technique, offering a wide linear range spanning 1–160 µm and demonstrating a low limit of detection at 0.84 µm. To ensure the reliability of the electrode, various aspects such as sensitivity, repeatability, reproducibility, and stability were meticulously studied. When applied to the analysis of SAL in swine urine solutions (n = 3), the electrode exhibited good recovery rates. Remarkably, the results obtained through this method correlated well with those acquired using ultra‐high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC).","PeriodicalId":23525,"journal":{"name":"Vietnam Journal of Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140456968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
