Poli(uretan-siloksani) na bazi hiperrazgranatog poliestra kao umreživača - sinteza i karakterizacija
A series of novel polyurethane crosslinked structures (PUs) was prepared from α,ω-dihydroxy-(ethylene oxide-poly(dimethylsiloxane)-ethylene oxide) (EO-PDMS-EO), 4,4'-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate and Boltorn ® hyperbranched polyester of the third pseudo generation. The hydroxyfunctional hyperbranched aliphatic polyester with 26 end groups was used as a crosslinking agent. In order to improve the compatibility of all the reactants during the synthesis, the PU samples were prepared by two-stage, step-growth polymerization in solution. The content of the soft EO-PDMS-EO segments was varied in the range from 15 to 40 wt. %. The influence of the EO-PDMS-EO content on the swelling behavior, crosslink density, hardness, and the thermal and surface properties of the synthesized PUs was investigated. The structure of the synthesized polyurethanes was confirmed by the presence of specific bands in the Fourier transform infrared spectra. Swelling studies were performed to determine the crosslink density and polyurethane networks with lower EO-PDMS-EO contents had higher crosslink densities. The glass transition temperature of the synthesized PUs, determined by differential scanning calorimetry, slightly increased from 50 to 58°C on decreasing the EO-PDMS-EO content because of the higher crosslink density of the samples. Increasing the EO-PDMS-EO content led to better thermal stability, as was evidenced by the onset temperature of weight loss. The surface of the polyurethane networks became more hydrophobic with increasing EO-PDMS-EO content. The surface morphology of synthesized polyurethanes was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy.U ovom radu prikazana je sinteza, struktura i neka svojstva novih umreženih poliuretana pripremljenih polazeći od α,ω-dihidroksi-(etilenoksid-poli(dimetilsiloksan)-etilenoksid) pretpolimera (EO-PDMS-EO), 4,4'-metilendifenildiizocijanata i Boltorn® hiperrazgranatog poliestra treće pseudo-generacije. Hiperrazgranati hidroksi funkcionalni alifatski poliestar sa 26 krajnjih grupa služio je kao umrežavajući agens pri sintezi poliuretana. U cilju poboljšanja kompatibilnosti reaktanata tokom sinteze, poliuretani su sintetisani dvostepenom polimerizacijom u rastvoru. Sadržaj mekog EO-PDMS-EO segmenta variran je u opsegu od 15 do 40 mas. %. Ispitan je uticaj EO-PDMS-EO sadržaja na ponašanje pri bubrenju, gustinu umrežavanja, tvrdoću, termička i površinska svojstva sintetisanih poliuretana. Struktura sintetisanih poliuretana potvrđena je FTIR spektroskopijom. Ponašanje pri bubrenju je ispitivano kako bi se odredila gustina umrežavanja i pokazano je da poliuretanske mreže sa nižim EO-PDMS-EO sadržajem imaju veću gustinu umrežavanja. Rezultati diferencijalne skenirajuće kalorimetrije pokazali su povećanje temperature ostakljivanja poliuretana od 50 do 58°C sa smanjenjem EO-PDMS-EO sadržaja kao posledicu veće gustine umreženosti uzoraka. Sintetisani poliuretani sa većim sadržajem EO-PDMS-EO segmenata pokazuju bolju termičku stabilnost, što je potvrđeno porastom početne temperature degradacije, određene TG analizom. Hidrofobnost površine poliuretana je rasla sa povećanjem sadržaja EO-PDMS-EO u odgovarajućem uzorku. Površinska morfologija sintetisanih poliuretana je analizirana skenirajućom elektronskom mikroskopijom
Degradation herbicides with chlorine dioxide: degradation efficiency and toxicity test
The main objective of this study was to find optimal parameters for degradation of herbicides, such
as nicosulfuron and thifensulfuron-methyl, with chlorine dioxide in deionized water. In order to examine the optimal parameters, degradation of herbicides was investigated under light or dark conditions with different amount of chlorine dioxide (5 and 10 ppm), different time of degradation (30 min, 1, 2, 3, 6 and 24 h) and at different pH values (3, 7 and 9). Degradation efficiency of herbicides was monitored using HPLC-DAD. Acute toxicity tests were performed for degradation products after the treatment with chlorine dioxide

Proučavanje morfologije i termomehaničkih svojstava umreženih poli(uretan-siloksana) na bazi hiperrazgranatog poliestra
Two series of polyurethane films based on hyperbranched polyester of the second pseudo-generation (Boltorn®), 4,4'-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate and two different siloxane prepolymers, α,ω-dihydroxy-(ethylene oxide-poly(dimethylsiloxane)-ethylene oxide)(EO-PDMS-EO) and α,ω-dihydroxypropyl-poly(dimethylsiloxane) (HP-PDMS), were prepared by two-step polymerization in solution. The influence of the type and content of soft segment on the morphology, thermomechanical and surface properties of the synthesized polyurethanes was studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM), small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) and water absorption measurements. It was found that these techniques confirmed existence of microphase separated morphology. Synthesized polyurethanes exhibited two glass transition temperatures and one second relaxation process. The results showed that polyurethanes based on HP-PDMS had higher surface roughness, better microphase separation and waterproof performances. Samples synthesized with lower PDMS content had less hydrophobic surface, but higher crosslinking density and better thermomechanical properties.U ovom radu pripremane su dve serije poliuretanskih filmova na bazi hiperrazgranatog poliestra druge pseudo generacije (Boltron), 4,4¢-metilendifenildiizocijanata i dva različita iloksanska pretpolimera kao što su a, ω-dihidroksi- (etilenoksid-poli(dimetilsiloksan)-etilenoksid)(EO-PDMS-EO) i a,ω-dihidroksipro-pilpoli(dimetilsiloksan)(HP-PDMS), dvostepenom polimerizacijom u rastvoru. Uticaj vrste i sadržaja mekog segmenta na morfologiju, termomehanička i površinska svojstva sintetisanih poliuretana je proučavan pomoću mikroskopije atomske sila (AFM), rasipanja X-zraka pod malim uglovima (SAXS), skenirajuće elektronske mikroskopije (SEM), dinamičko mehaničke termičke analize (DMTA) i merenja količine apsorbovane vode. Nađeno je da primenjene tehnike potvrđuju postojanje morfologije mikrofaznog razdvajanja. Sintetisani poliuretani pokazivali su dve temperature ostakljivanja i jedan sekundarni relaksacioni proces. Rezultati su pokazali da poliuretani na bazi HP-PDMS su imali veći koeficijent hrapavosti, bolje mikrofazno razdvajanje i bolju otpornost prema vodi. Uzorci sintetisani sa nižim sadržajem PDMS-a su imali manju hidrofobnost, ali veću gustinu umrežavanja i bolja termomehanička svojstva

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in two sedimentary environments of the Tertiary Krepoljin coal basin
In the present study, statistical correlation analysis and multivariate statistical techniques (PCA/FA) were employed to investigate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediments, such as illite-montmorillonite (IM) and calcite (Ct), from two sedimentary environments of the Tertiary Krepoljin brown coal basin in Serbia. The coal and sediment layers were formed in fresh-water bogs during the Lower Miocene period. The total amount of extractable PAHs was determined by gas chromatography with a triple quad mass detector (GC-MS-MS), and it ranged from 449 to 10585 μg l−1 in all sediments. Eight of the total 16 PAHs, which ranged from 175.17 to 658.42 μg l−1, include benzo[a]anthracene, chrysene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, benzo[k]fluoranthene, benzo[a]pyrene, dibenzo[a,h]anthracene, benzo[g,h,i]perylene, and indeno[1,2,3-cd]pyrene, which are regarded as potentially carcinogenic, indicating a higher possibility of adverse ecological effects. Medium molecular-weight (MMW) PAHs were found to be predominant in all sediments. PAH concentrations are affected by several factors, such as carbon content, H/C mole ratio, and (less significant) O/C mole ratio. The non-existence of a correlation between the N/C ratio and other parameters indicates unspecific changes which accompany the original organic matter. The lower-sulfur Ct sediment samples were found to have a higher PAH content than higher sulfur IM samples, leading to the conclusion that the PAH content of sediments may be related to the depositional environment
Influence of coal combustion temperature on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons formation in coal fired power plants and its consequences on the environment
Naučni cilj istraživanja obuhvaćenog ovom doktorskom disertacijom je
ispitivanje i utvrđivanje mehanizama formiranja policikličnih aromatičnih
ugljovodonika (PAH) in situ, tokom sagorevanja uglja i promene temperature
sagorevanja u termoelektrani „Nikola Tesla B“, kao i istraživanje njihove sudbine
(razlaganja i degradacije) u proizvodima sagorevanja tokom transporta i nakon
odlaganja na deponiju pepela i šljake.
Količine policikličnih aromatičnih ugljovodonika su ispitivane u uglju koji se
koristi u termoelektrani, proizvodima nastalim sagorevanjem uglja pri različitim
temperaturama (različitim tipovima pepela i šljake), kao i u deponijskom pepelu
i šljaci sa aktivne, trenutno korišćene, i pasivne, ranije korišćene kasete deponije.
Ekstrakcija PAH-ova iz čvrstih uzoraka je rađena pomoću ultrazvuka u
odgovarajućem rastvaraču, dok je analiza pripremljenih uzoraka izvedena
pomoću gasnog hromatografa povezanog sa masenim detektorom.
Ispitivana je i ekstraktibilnost PAH-ova iz elektrofilterskog pepela u uslovima
koji oponašaju one koji mogu biti prisutni u životnoj sredini. Ekstrakcija
PAH-ova iz pripremljenih tečnih uzoraka vršena je rastvaračem u levku za
odvajanje, dok je analiza pripremljenih uzoraka izvođena pomoću gasnog
hromatografa povezanog sa masenim detektorom.
Zaključeno je da sa porastom temperature sagorevanja lignita u termoelektrani
Nikola Tesla B, ukupna količina PAH-ova u proizvodima sagorevanja raste u
temperaturnom opsegu od 930 do 973,5 oC, dok sa daljim povećanjem
temperature ukupna količina ostaje konstantna. PAH-ovi u pepelu i šljaci se
ponašaju različito: količine PAH-ova rastu u pepelu zbog njihove sinteze tokom
sagorevanja u ložištu i zbog njihovog povećanog isparavanja usled povećanih...The scientific aim of the research covered by this dissertation is to examine and
determine the mechanisms of formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in
situ during the combustion of coal and variation of temperature combustion in
thermal power plant "Nikola Tesla B", as well as the study of their fate
(decomposition and degradation) in the products of combustion during the
transport and after deposition of ash and slag.
The concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were tested in coal used
in thermal power plant, coal combustion products formed by the combustion of
coal at different temperatures (various types of fly ash and slag), as well as ash
and slag from active, currently used, and passive, previously used cassette of ash
dump. Extraction of PAH’s from solid samples was carried out by means of
ultrasound in a suitable solvent, while the analysis of the prepared samples was
performed using gas chromatography with mass detector.
The extractability of PAHs in fly ash in conditions that mimic those that may be
present in the environment was investigated. Extraction of PAHs from the
prepared liquid samples was carried out using solvent in a separating funnel,
while the analysis of the prepared samples was performed by gas
chromatography with mass detector.
It is concluded that with increasing of combustion temperature of lignite in the
thermal power plant Nikola Tesla B, the total amount of PAHs in the products of
combustion increases from 930 to 973.5 °C, and with a further increase in
temperature total amount becomes constant. PAHs in ash and slag behave
differently: the quantities of PAHs are increasing in ash because of their synthesis
during combustion in the furnace and because of their increased evaporation due
to increased temperature, resulting in, among other things, the presence of PAHs..
