The presence of salt ions significantly enhances the stability of polymer/surfactant composite foam systems, offering great potential for optimizing CO2 foam flooding performance in high-salinity reservoirs. However, the molecular-level mechanism underlying this “salt ion-induced enhancement” effect remains unclear. This study systematically investigates the evolution of foam performance and the synergistic salt-tolerance mechanism of a polymer/surfactant system across a wide salinity range (0∼20×104 mg/L) through interface/bulk characterization combined with molecular dynamics simulations. Research demonstrates that salt ions weaken polymer/surfactant-H2O interactions through competitive hydration, while simultaneously promoting hydrogen bonds between the polymer/surfactant interface to form a highly elastic interfacial film. Additionally, the “salt thickening” effect of the foam base-fluid drives to form a supramolecular network, which is a key mechanism behind the enhanced viscoelasticity. Compared to a salt-free system, high salinity (20×104 mg/L) delays foam drainage (the drainage activation energy increases to 51.46 kJ/mol) and suppresses coarsening (Ostwald ripening rate decreases by 57.4%), thereby enhancing the foam comprehensive index by 1.78 times. This study elucidates the key pathways for salt ion-induced synergistic salt-tolerance in polymer/surfactant composite systems, providing theoretical support for constructing green, efficient CO2 foam systems adapted to high-salinity environments.
盐离子的存在显著提高了聚合物/表面活性剂复合泡沫体系的稳定性,为优化高矿化度油藏的CO2泡沫驱性能提供了巨大的潜力。然而,这种“盐离子诱导增强”效应的分子水平机制尚不清楚。本研究通过界面/体积表征结合分子动力学模拟,系统地研究了聚合物/表面活性剂体系在宽盐度范围(0 ~ 20×104 mg/L)内泡沫性能的演变和协同耐盐机制。研究表明,盐离子通过竞争性水化削弱聚合物/表面活性剂- h2o相互作用,同时促进聚合物/表面活性剂界面之间的氢键形成高弹性界面膜。此外,泡沫基流体的“盐增稠”效应驱动形成超分子网络,这是增强粘弹性的关键机制。与无盐体系相比,高盐度(20×104 mg/L)可延缓泡沫排水(排水活化能提高至51.46 kJ/mol),抑制泡沫粗化(Ostwald熟化率降低57.4%),从而使泡沫综合指数提高1.78倍。本研究阐明了盐离子诱导聚合物/表面活性剂复合体系协同耐盐的关键途径,为构建适应高盐度环境的绿色高效CO2泡沫体系提供了理论支持。

In this study, an integrated experimental–analytical framework was employed to investigate the effects of geometric imperfections on the static and fatigue behaviour of 3D-printed polylactic acid (PLA) specimens. The specimens were fabricated using Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) with YZ orientation and a concentric infill pattern. Experimental results showed that a central hole with a stress concentration factor of 1.95 resulted in approximately 17% shorter fatigue life compared to edge-notched specimens. Notches and holes with a 2 mm radius yielded fatigue notch factors of 1.12 and 1.15, respectively, emphasizing the dominant influence of process-induced internal defects on fatigue damage evolution. To determine the notch geometry that can override the effect of internal defects on fatigue behaviour, the Theory of Critical Distance (TCD) coupled with numerical models was used to estimate the fatigue notch factor. In the numerical simulations, the internal porosity of the 3D-printed samples was taken into account to capture the interaction between notches and inherent defects. The analysis identified a notch aspect ratio of 0.25 as critical, exhibiting the highest fatigue notch factor of 1.59. Then, crack growth behaviour was monitored using Digital Image Correlation (DIC) and analyzed through the Paris law to determine material constants. Fatigue life was subsequently estimated using a defect-based approach for 3D-printed PLA, explicitly accounting for process-induced internal defects.
在这项研究中,采用了一个集成的实验分析框架来研究几何缺陷对3d打印聚乳酸(PLA)样品的静态和疲劳行为的影响。采用YZ取向和同心填充模式的熔融沉积模型(FDM)制备样品。试验结果表明,中心孔的应力集中系数为1.95,与边缘缺口相比,中心孔的疲劳寿命缩短了约17%。半径为2mm的缺口和孔的疲劳缺口系数分别为1.12和1.15,强调了工艺诱导的内部缺陷对疲劳损伤演化的主导影响。为了确定能够覆盖内部缺陷对疲劳行为影响的缺口几何形状,采用临界距离理论(TCD)与数值模型相结合的方法估计了疲劳缺口因子。在数值模拟中,考虑了3d打印样品的内部孔隙率,以捕捉缺口和固有缺陷之间的相互作用。分析确定缺口长径比为0.25为临界值,显示出最高的疲劳缺口系数为1.59。然后利用数字图像相关(DIC)技术监测裂纹扩展行为,并利用Paris定律进行分析,确定材料常数。随后,使用基于缺陷的方法对3d打印PLA进行疲劳寿命估计,明确考虑了工艺引起的内部缺陷。

Developing high-performance bio-based poly(lactic acid)-polyurethane (PLA-PU) elastomers is important for achieving carbon neutrality and a sustainable future. Conventional PLA-PU systems suffer from mechanical and functional limitations. Herein, we develop lignin-modified PLA-PU thermoplastic elastomer (LPT) films through a facile solution polymerization strategy in which the covalence of lignin in the PLA-PU networks simultaneously enhanced mechanical performance and provided multifunction. The mechanical toughness of the optimized LPT films reached 349.09 MJ/m3 with a tensile strength of 41.12 MPa and an elongation break of 1649.51%. Besides, the presence of chromophores and aromatic structures in the lignin endows the modified films with intrinsic brown color and remarkable UV resistance performance. The absorptions of UVB/UVC and UVA are higher than 99.51% and 88.14%, respectively. Notably, the LPT films maintain 71.57% tensile strength and 78.05% elongation after three recycling cycles via dissolution in DMF, while achieving complete degradation under mild alkaline conditions, demonstrating their sustainable feature. This work establishes a new pathway for developing sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based elastomers with combined mechanical robustness and multifunctions.

The constraints faced by adsorbents in adsorbing dye wastewater include limited adsorption capacity, difficulties in regeneration with high costs, and the competition for adsorption as well as restrictions on conditions such as pH and temperature, all of which limit their wide application. Here we develop a novel adsorbent AC/Fe3O4@PDA with high adsorption capacity, rapid adsorption rate as well as magnetic property for efficiently adsorption organic methylene blue (MB). The surface morphology, crystal structure, chemical structure, elementals compositions, pore structure, magnetic property and wettability were all well characterized. It is proposed that an innovative superhydrophilic nanocomposite adsorbent based on highly magnetic and chemically stable biomass nanoparticles are covered by an adsorptive surface layer of PDA. Batch tests were performed to evaluate the influence of temperature, initial pH values, initial MB concentration and time on the performance of the target nanomaterial. The existence of open mesopores and macropores, three-dimensional cavity architecture, super-hydrophilic wettability and abundant amino/hydroxyl functional groups were all beneficial for well contact and chemical firmly bond with water-soluble toxic MB dye. After functionalized by mussel-inspired PDA modification, AC/Fe3O4@PDA, the active adsorbent could be easily removed from wastewater surface by a magnet. After adsorption, the three-dimensional pores of the carbon skeleton were well maintained. Super-hydrophilic and surface-adhering PDA coating make MB more tightly contact with AC/Fe3O4@PDA composite at aqueous media. More importantly, this strategy could be easily extended for fabrication of many other highly efficient magnetic adsorbents to solve the removing problem for the environmental applications of mussel inspired chemistry.
吸附剂在吸附染料废水时面临着吸附能力有限、再生困难且成本高、吸附竞争激烈以及pH、温度等条件的限制等制约因素,限制了其广泛应用。本文研制了一种新型吸附剂AC/Fe3O4@PDA,该吸附剂具有高吸附容量、快速吸附速率和磁性能,可有效吸附有机亚甲基蓝(MB)。样品的表面形貌、晶体结构、化学结构、元素组成、孔隙结构、磁性和润湿性均得到了较好的表征。提出了一种新型的超亲水纳米复合吸附剂,该吸附剂是基于高磁性和化学稳定性的生物质纳米颗粒,表面覆盖一层PDA吸附层。通过批量实验考察了温度、初始pH值、初始MB浓度和时间对目标纳米材料性能的影响。开放的中孔和大孔、三维空腔结构、超亲水润湿性和丰富的氨基/羟基官能团的存在,都有利于与水溶性有毒MB染料良好接触和化学牢固结合。经贻贝启发PDA改性AC/Fe3O4@PDA后,活性吸附剂可以很容易地通过磁铁从废水表面去除。吸附后,碳骨架的三维孔隙得到了很好的保持。超亲水性和表面粘附性的PDA涂层使MB在水介质中与AC/Fe3O4@PDA复合材料的接触更加紧密。更重要的是,这种策略可以很容易地扩展到许多其他高效磁性吸附剂的制造,以解决贻贝启发化学的环境应用中的去除问题。

Conventional uniaxial hot stretching of polylactic acid (PLA) films usually leads to the loss of transverse direction (TD) strength, due to the orientation of molecular chains along the machine direction (MD). To address this issue, this study proposed a novel and industrially feasible strategy, i.e., combining melt casting and uniaxial hot stretching, and utilizing the critical role of the rigid amorphous fraction (RAF) in governing the crystal evolution and macroscopic properties during hot stretching, to produce high-performance PLA films without sacrificing the TD strength. Compared with hot-pressed precursors, the melt casting precursors possessed higher RAF, which could promote strain-induced crystallization more quickly, forming a dense PLA crystal network at low stretching ratios (SR ≤ 3). This physical cross-linked network effectively restricted the movement of amorphous chains, particularly along TD, and induced higher stress during the strain hardening stage, thereby facilitating the formation of highly oriented crystals and smaller-sized nanocrystals (denser crystal network structure). Consequently, even at SR of 5, the TD strength of PLA films remained undiminished (55.9 MPa), and the tensile and tear strength in MD reached 144 MPa, 225.6N/mm, respectively. More importantly, these films exhibited excellent puncture strength (275 N/mm), high transparency (90% at 600 nm), heat resistance (1980 MPa at 80 °C), and superior oxygen barrier properties (1.9×10-15cm3·cm/(cm2·s·Pa)). This work would provide a theoretical and practical pathway for advanced PLA film production.
传统的单轴热拉伸聚乳酸(PLA)薄膜,由于分子链沿机器方向(MD)取向,通常会导致横向(TD)强度的损失。为了解决这一问题,本研究提出了一种新颖且工业上可行的策略,即将熔融铸造和单轴热拉伸相结合,利用刚性非晶分数(RAF)在热拉伸过程中控制晶体演化和宏观性能的关键作用,在不牺牲TD强度的情况下生产高性能PLA薄膜。与热压前驱体相比,熔融铸造前驱体具有更高的RAF,可以更快地促进应变诱导结晶,在低拉伸比(SR≤3)下形成致密的PLA晶体网络。这种物理交联网络有效地限制了非晶链的运动,特别是沿TD的运动,并在应变硬化阶段引起更高的应力,从而促进了高取向晶体和小尺寸纳米晶体的形成(更密集的晶体网络结构)。因此,即使在SR为5时,PLA薄膜的TD强度仍未降低(55.9 MPa),而MD中的拉伸强度和撕裂强度分别达到144 MPa和225.6N/mm。更重要的是,这些薄膜具有优异的穿刺强度(275 N/mm),高透明度(600 nm时90%),耐热性(80℃时1980 MPa)和优异的阻氧性能(1.9×10-15cm3·cm/(cm2·s·Pa))。这一工作将为先进PLA薄膜的生产提供理论和实践途径。

In tetra-arm poly(ethylene glycol) modified with catechol moieties (4-PCA), the networks were preserved by coordination bonds of catechol-Fe(III) ions using optimal quantitative ratios (RCA/Fe) that form bis and tris-complexes depending on pH values. The network is established with finite units associated with changes in geometrical connections. This research focuses on the structural aspects composed of controllable coordination bonding units. The samples were investigated using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and neutron scattering (SANS) measurements. The apparent correlation lengths of the gels were discussed as the presence of nano-defects. The contrast variation SNAS results support the presence of nano-defects, Rg ∼ 3 nm. The defects are incorporated by partial irregularity of missing linkages and subsequent distortion of the topology. The rapid and sensitive controls using metal-mediated coordination bond may generate defects in the polymer network. It suggests that diverse strategies for metal-mediated hydrogels can be found by monitoring their nanostructures.
研究了通过配位键交联的四臂聚乙二醇网络的内部结构,以了解这些由有限聚合物单元连接的网络的结构方面。在用儿茶酚基团修饰的四臂聚乙二醇(4-PCA)中,网络通过儿茶酚-Fe(III)离子的配位键保存,使用最佳定量比(RCA/Fe),根据pH值形成双和三络合物。该网络由有限单元建立,这些单元与几何连接的变化有关。本研究的重点是可控配位键合单元组成的结构方面。采用小角x射线散射(SAXS)和中子散射(SANS)测量对样品进行了研究。讨论了纳米缺陷存在时凝胶的表观相关长度。对比变化的SNAS结果支持纳米缺陷的存在,Rg ~ 3nm。缺陷是由缺失连杆的部分不规则性和随后的拓扑畸变引起的。利用金属介导的配位键进行快速灵敏的控制,可能会在聚合物网络中产生缺陷。这表明,通过监测金属介导的水凝胶的纳米结构,可以找到不同的策略。
