Hybrid Antimicrobial Films Containing a Polyoxometalate-Ionic Liquid.

ABSTRACT: The increasing resistance of pathogenic microorganisms against common treatments requires innovative concepts to prevent infection and avoid long-term microbe viability on commonly used surfaces. Here, we report the preparation of a hybrid antimicrobial material based on the combination of microbiocidal polyoxometalate-ionic liquids (POM-ILs) and a biocompatible polymeric support, which enables the development of surface coatings that prevent microbial adhesion. The composite material is based on an antibacterial and antifungal room-temperature POM-IL composed of guanidinium cations (N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-N″, N″-dioctylguanidinum) combined with lacunary Keggin-type polyoxotungstate anions, [α-SiW₁₁O₃₉]^8-. Integration of the antimicrobial POM-IL into the biocompatible, flexible, and stable polymer poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) results in processable films, which are suitable as surface coatings or packaging materials to limit the proliferation and spread of pathogenic microorganisms (e.g., on public transport and hospital surfaces, or in ready-to-eat-food packaging).

Polymerizable Ionic Liquid Crystals Comprising Polyoxometalate Clusters toward Inorganic-Organic Hybrid Solid Electrolytes.

Project description:Solid electrolytes are crucial materials for lithium-ion or fuel-cell battery technology due to their structural stability and easiness for handling. Emergence of high conductivity in solid electrolytes requires precise control of the composition and structure. A promising strategy toward highly-conductive solid electrolytes is employing a thermally-stable inorganic component and a structurally-flexible organic moiety to construct inorganic-organic hybrid materials. Ionic liquids as the organic component will be advantageous for the emergence of high conductivity, and polyoxometalate, such as heteropolyacids, are well-known as inorganic proton conductors. Here, newly-designed ionic liquid imidazolium cations, having a polymerizable methacryl group (denoted as MAImC₁), were successfully hybridized with heteropolyanions of [PW12O40]3- (PW12) to form inorganic-organic hybrid monomers of MAImC₁-PW12. The synthetic procedure of MAImC₁-PW12 was a simple ion-exchange reaction, being generally applicable to several polyoxometalates, in principle. MAImC₁-PW12 was obtained as single crystals, and its molecular and crystal structures were clearly revealed. Additionally, the hybrid monomer of MAImC₁-PW12 was polymerized by a radical polymerization using AIBN as an initiator. Some of the resulting inorganic-organic hybrid polymers exhibited conductivity of 10-4 S·cm-1 order under humidified conditions at 313 K.

Solvents and Stabilization in Ionic Liquid Films.

Project description:We report the interfacial structures and chemical environments of ionic liquid films as a function of dilution with molecular solvents and over a range of film thicknesses (a few micrometers). Data from spectroscopic ellipsometry and infrared spectroscopy measurements show differences between films comprised of neat ionic liquids, as well as films comprised of ionic liquids diluted with two molecular solvents (water and acetonitrile). While the water-diluted IL films follow thickness trends predicted by the Landau-Levich model, neat IL and IL/MeCN films deviate significantly from predicted behaviors. Specifically, these film thicknesses are far greater than the predicted values, suggesting enhanced intermolecular interactions or other non-Newtonian behaviors not captured by the theory. We correlate film thicknesses with trends in the infrared intensity profiles across film thicknesses and IL-solvent dilution conditions and interpret the changes from expected behaviors as varying amounts of the film volume existing in isotropic (bulk) vs anisotropic (interfacial) states. The hydrogen bonding network of water-diluted ionic liquids is implicated in the agreement of this system with the Landau-Levich model's thickness predictions.

Ionic Self-Assembled Luminescent Nanospheres from Cationic Polyelectrolyte and Eu-Containing Polyoxometalate.

Project description:Using the ionic self-assembly (ISA) strategy to combine Eu-containing polyoxometalates (Eu-POMs) and organic molecules mainly through noncovalent electrostatic interactions can protect Eu-POMs from solvent quenching of luminescence and enhance their processability. For this reason, a cationic polyelectrolyte, branched polyethyleneimine (PEI), and a Eu-POM, Na9(EuW10O36)·32H2O (EuW10), were used here to construct luminescence-enhanced spherical aggregates with diameters ranging from 50 to 200 nm. At a fixed concentration of EuW10, the phase behavior and luminescence properties of the mixture could be modulated by the PEI concentration. Such ISA-induced aggregates could effectively shield water molecules and result in better photophysical properties. Compared to bare EuW10, the absolute quantum yield and lifetime of luminescence for aggregates increased 10 and 5 times, respectively. Meanwhile, the sensitivity of the EuW10 coordination structure to the environment made it possible for obtained aggregates being used to detect either copper cations or permanganate anions due to their strong specific quenching effects to luminescence. Such a new type of luminescent soft material not only provided a reference for exploring the luminescence enhancement mechanism of lanthanide through self-assembly in aqueous solution but also exhibited potential in detection by luminescence analysis.

Electrotunable lubricity with ionic liquid nanoscale films.

Project description:One of the main challenges in tribology is finding the way for an in situ control of friction without changing the lubricant. One of the ways for such control is via the application of electric fields. In this respect a promising new class of lubricants is ionic liquids, which are solvent-free electrolytes, and their properties should be most strongly affected by applied voltage. Based on a minimal physical model, our study elucidates the connection between the voltage effect on the structure of the ionic liquid layers and their lubricating properties. It reveals two mechanisms of variation of the friction force with the surface charge density, consistent with recent AFM measurements, namely via the (i) charge effect on normal and in-plane ordering in the film and (ii) swapping between anion and cation layers at the surfaces. We formulate conditions that would warrant low friction coefficients and prevent wear by resisting "squeezing-out" of the liquid under compression. These results give a background for controllable variation of friction.

Capacitance of thin films containing polymerized ionic liquids.

Project description:Electrode-polymer interfaces dictate many of the properties of thin films such as capacitance, the electric field experienced by polymers, and charge transport. However, structure and dynamics of charged polymers near electrodes remain poorly understood, especially in the high concentration limit representative of the melts. To develop an understanding of electric field–induced transformations of electrode-polymer interfaces, we have studied electrified interfaces of an imidazolium-based polymerized ionic liquid (PolyIL) using combinations of broadband dielectric spectroscopy, specular neutron reflectivity, and simulations based on the Rayleigh’s dissipation function formalism. Overall, we obtained the camel-shaped dependence of the capacitance on applied voltage, which originated from the responses of an adsorbed polymer layer to applied voltages. This work provides additional insights related to the effects of molecular weight in affecting structure and properties of electrode-polymer interfaces, which are essential for designing next-generation energy storage and harvesting devices.

Water Purification and Microplastics Removal Using Magnetic Polyoxometalate-Supported Ionic Liquid Phases (magPOM-SILPs).

Project description:Filtration is an established water-purification technology. However, due to low flow rates, the filtration of large volumes of water is often not practical. Herein, we report an alternative purification approach in which a magnetic nanoparticle composite is used to remove organic, inorganic, microbial, and microplastics pollutants from water. The composite is based on a polyoxometalate ionic liquid (POM-IL) adsorbed onto magnetic microporous core-shell Fe2 O3 /SiO2 particles, giving a magnetic POM-supported ionic liquid phase (magPOM-SILP). Efficient, often quantitative removal of several typical surface water pollutants is reported together with facile removal of the particles using a permanent magnet. Tuning of the composite components could lead to new materials for centralized and decentralized water purification systems.

Graphene/Ionic liquid composite films and ion exchange.

Project description:Wettability of graphene is adjusted by the formation of various ionic surfaces combining ionic liquid (IL) self-assembly with ion exchange. The functionalized ILs were designed and synthesized with the goal of obtaining adjustable wettability. The wettability of the graphene surface bearing various anions was measured systematically. The effect of solvent systems on ion exchange ratios on the graphene surface has also been investigated. Meanwhile, the mechanical properties of the graphene/IL composite films were investigated on a nanometer scale. The elasticity and adhesion behavior of the thin film was determined with respected to the indentation deformation by colloid probe nanoindentation method. The results indicate that anions played an important role in determining graphene/IL composite film properties. In addition, surface wetting and mechanics can be quantitatively determined according to the counter-anions on the surface. This study might suggest an alternate way for quantity detection of surface ions by surface force.

Preparation of Polyoxometalate-Based Composite by Solidification of Highly Active Cobalt-Containing Polytungstate on Polymeric Ionic Liquid for the Efficient Isolation of Proteinase K.

Project description:A novel porous polyoxometalate (POM)-based composite (Co4PW-PDDVAC) was prepared via the solidification of water-soluble polytungstate (Co4PW) on the polymeric ionic liquid dimethyldodecyl-4-polyethylene benzyl ammonium chloride (PDDVAC) via a cation-exchange reaction. The solidification was confirmed by EDS, SEM, FT-IR, TGA, and so on. The strong covalent coordination and hydrogen-bonding interaction between the highly active Co2+ of the Co4PW and the aspartic acid residues of proteinase K endowed the obtained Co4PW-PDDVAC composite with excellent proteinase K adsorption properties. Thermodynamic investigations indicate that the adsorption behavior of proteinase K was consistent with the linear Langmuir isothermal model, giving an adsorption capacity as high as 1428 mg g-1. The Co4PW-PDDVAC composite was applied in the selective isolation of highly active proteinase K from Tritirachium album Limber crude enzyme fluid.
