  • Publication number: 20230096646
    Abstract: The invention relates to a millimeter-sized bulk spa amorphous carbon material and a method of preparing the same, and the method comprises a step of performing a high-temperature and high-pressure (HTHP) treatment on C60 powder at a temperature of 450-1100° C., preferably 700-1000° C., more preferably 900-1000° C., and most preferably 1000° C., and a pressure of 20-37 GPa, preferably 20-30 GPa, and most preferably 27 GPa, so as to obtain the millimeter-sized bulk sp3 amorphous carbon material. The sp3 carbon content in the amorphous carbon material is adjustable by changing the temperature and pressure conditions, so that the sp3 content is greater than 80%, and the sp3 content of high-quality samples is close to 100%. The optical band gap and thermal conductivity of the series of amorphous carbon materials can be effectively adjusted. The obtained series of amorphous carbon materials have ultra-high hardnesses, high thermal conductivities, adjustable band gaps (1.90-2.

  • Patent number: 11472768
    Abstract: Disclosed are HPTS series derivatives and a synthesis method thereof, belonging to the field of organic synthesis. The HPTS series derivatives are prepared by introducing alkylamine or alcohol into sulfonic acid groups of HPTS. The synthesis method comprises the following steps: subjecting HPTS and phosphorus oxychloride to heating and reflux reaction for 12 hours under catalysis of DMF to obtain a reaction product; introducing the reaction product into ice water, stirring, precipitating solid, and performing suction filtration to obtain HPTS-SO2Cl; dissolving the HPTS-SO2Cl in tetrahydrofuran to prepare solution A, and dissolving alkylamine or alcohol in tetrahydrofuran to prepare solution B; mixing the solution A with the solution B and then reacting for 24 hours at normal temperature, obtaining a product by rotary evaporation, and obtaining a pure compound after separation through columns. The derivatives have strong fat solubility, overcome the defect of a very strong water solubility.

  • Patent number: 11300510
    Abstract: The present invention provides a fluorescent dye HPTS-lipo for monitoring two-dimensional pH value, a fluorescent sensing film, and use thereof, belonging to the field of two-dimensional pH value monitoring. The fluorescence sensing film for monitoring two-dimensional pH is prepared from the fluorescent dye HPTS-lipo, and HPTS-lipo is embedded by hydrogel D4 in a preparation process. The fluorescent dye HPTS-lipo is prepared by ligating alkylamine into sulfonic acid groups of the fluorescent dye HPTS. Compared with the fluorescent dye HPTS, the pKa value of the modified fluorescent dye HPTS-lipo is significantly varied, so that the fluorescent sensing film is suitable for monitoring different pH values and meets different experimental requirements; and the fluorescent dye HPTS-lipo has better hydrophobicity, can be kept for longer time in environment, and further solves the problem of dye leakage after being embedded by the hydrogel.
