Journal ArticleDOI
Alkaline anion-exchange radiation-grafted membranes for possible electrochemical application in fuel cells
TL;DR: In this paper, a radiation-grafting methodology was used to grafted onto PVDF and FEP polymer films to obtain an ion exchange membrane capable of conducting hydroxide ions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of PVDF- and FEP-based radiation-grafted alkaline anion-exchange membranes for use in low temperature portable DMFCs
TL;DR: Vinylbenzyl chloride has been grafted onto both PVDF and FEP fluoropolymer films, subsequent amination and ion exchange to give the hydroxide ion forms yield anion-exchange membranes suitable for use in low temperature direct methanol fuel cells for portable applications as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microwave assisted synthesis of pyrroles
TL;DR: The synthesis of pyrroles by reaction of hexane-2,5-dione with primary amines has been shown to occur in less than 2 minutes under microwave activation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability of various metalloporphyrin catalysts during hydrogen peroxide epoxidation of alkene
Ian D. Cunningham,Timothy N. Danks,John N. Hay,Ian Hamerton,Suthahari Gunathilagan,Celine Janczak +5 more
TL;DR: The ability of certain Fe and Mn metalloporphyrins to catalyse the H 2 O 2 epoxidation of cyclooctene is analyzed in this paper, where the authors dissected the efficiency of cycloxidation into contributions due to inherent catalytic ability, catalytic dismutation ability, and catalyst stability towards the oxidant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal and microwave-assisted N-formylation using solid-supported reagents
TL;DR: In this paper, a rapid and easy route to formamides by microwave assisted N-formylation of primary and secondary amines was described, using an insoluble polymer or an inorganic solid-supported reagent as a formylating agent.
