TL;DR: An unprecedented visible-light-induced hydrodifluoromethylation of alkenes with bromodifluorbromide using H2O and THF as hydrogen sources for the synthesis of diffluorometHylated alkanes is described.
Abstract: Bromodifluoromethylphosphonium bromide was solely used as the precursor of difluorocarbene. Herein, an unprecedented visible-light-induced hydrodifluoromethylation of alkenes with bromodifluoromethylphosphonium bromide using H2O and THF as hydrogen sources for the synthesis of difluoromethylated alkanes is described. This difluoromethylation is characterized by mild reaction conditions, ready availability of reagents, and excellent functional-group tolerance.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of solvents, weight concentrations and salt additives on the number and morphology of beads in the electrospinning process have not been systematically studied, and both theoretical analysis and experimental results show that beads strongly depend upon solvers, weight concentration and salt additive, and that a suitable weight concentration or a suitable salt additive can completely prevent the occurrence of beads.
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Electrospinning is a powerful and effective method to produce nanofibers Beads have been observed widely in electrospun products, but effects of solvents, weight concentrations and salt additives on the number and morphology of beads in the electrospinning process have not been systematically studied
RESULTS: Both theoretical analysis and experimental results show that beads strongly depend upon solvents, weight concentrations and salt additives Either a suitable weight concentration or a suitable salt additive can completely prevent the occurrence of beads in the electrospinning process; solvents can affect the number of beads and the morphology of electrospun fibers
CONCLUSION: Beads are mainly caused by lower surface tension With a higher surface tension, the size and number of beads in electrospun products are smaller and fewer, respectively Copyright © 2007 Society of Chemical Industry

TL;DR: It is speculated that sludge composts may act as a vehicle of MPs into soils, and then enter soil biota and in turn influence the spread of MPs in the environment.
Abstract: The widespread application of sewage sludge produced from wastewater treatment plants for agricultural use has been regarded as a primary source of microplastics (MPs) into soils. However, little is known regarding MPs in sludge-based fertilizers and their relevant fate in soils as being applied in agriculture. We comprehensively investigated the abundance, polymer size, type, and morphology of MPs in dewatered sludge, sewage sludge composts, sludge-based fertilizer-amended soils, and earthworms by stereoscopy and micro Fourier transform infrared (μ-FTIR) spectrometry methods. The results clearly showed that the quantity of MPs in soils exhibited a close correlation with the application rate of sludge-based fertilizers. The total abundances of MPs were 545.9 and 87.6 items/kg in soils after annual amendment with 30 (field A) and 15 t/ha (field B) of sludge composts, which is significantly higher than that without compost application (field C, 5.0 items/kg). Correspondingly, MPs were found in earthworms with low quantities of 1.8 and 0.4 items/individual in fields A and B, respectively, while no MP was detected in field C. We speculate that sludge composts may act as a vehicle of MPs into soils and then enter soil biota and in turn influence the spread of MPs in the environment.

TL;DR: A unique combo textile sensor, which can sense temperature and pressure independently with a position precision of 1 mm2 , is obtained and is applied to intelligent gloves endows the position dependent sensing of the weight, and temperature distribution sensing ofThe temperature.
Abstract: Wearable electronic textiles based on natural biocompatible/biodegradable materials have attracted great attention due to applications in health care and smart clothes. Silkworm fibers are durable, good heat conductors, insulating, and biocompatible, and are therefore regarded as excellent mediating materials for flexible electronics. In this paper, a strategy on the design and fabrication of highly flexible multimode electronic textiles (E-textile) based on functionalized silkworm fiber coiled yarns and weaving technology is presented. To achieve enhanced temperature sensing performance, a mixture of carbon nanotubes and an ionic liquid ([EMIM]Tf2 N) is embedded, which displays top sensitivity of 1.23% °C-1 and stability compared with others. Furthermore, fibrous pressure sensing based on the capacitance change of each cross-point of two yarns gives rise to highly position dependent and sensitivity sensing of 0.136 kPa-1 . Based on weaving technologies, a unique combo textile sensor, which can sense temperature and pressure independently with a position precision of 1 mm2 , is obtained. The application to intelligent gloves endows the position dependent sensing of the weight, and temperature distribution sensing of the temperature.
