TL;DR: In this article, the association of tannic acid (TA) with neutral or charged polymers in solution and at surfaces and contrast hydrogen-bonded and electrostatically associated polymer/TA complexes and TA/polymer layer-by-layer (LbL) films as per their stability in the pH scale.
Abstract: We report on association of tannic acid (TA) with neutral or charged polymers in solution and at surfaces and contrast hydrogen-bonded and electrostatically associated polymer/TA complexes and TA/polymer layer-by-layer (LbL) films as per their stability in the pH scale. The neutral polymers used for hydrogen bonding with TA were poly(N-vinylcaprolactam) (PVCL), poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVPON), poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), or poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM), and the polymer used to explore electrostatic binding with TA was 90% quaternized poly(4-vinylpyridine) (Q90). Association of TA with polymers in solution was explored by measuring the turbidity of solutions. At surfaces, LbL film deposition and pH stability were followed by phase-modulated ellipsometry and in-situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy in attenuated total reflection mode (ATR-FTIR). While electrostatically stabilized films of TA with Q90 could not be deposited at low pH values (pH = 2), hydrogen-bonded films of TA with PVCL, PVP...

TL;DR: These nanocomposite hydrogels with unprecedented stretchability, toughness, and self-healing have been developed by in situ polymerization of acrylamide with the presence of exfoliated montmorillonite layers as noncovalent cross-linkers and are demonstrated to fully heal by dry-reswell treatments.
Abstract: Nanocomposite hydrogels with unprecedented stretchability, toughness, and self-healing have been developed by in situ polymerization of acrylamide with the presence of exfoliated montmorillonite (MMT) layers as noncovalent cross-linkers. The exfoliated MMT clay nanoplatelets with high aspect ratios, as confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) results, are well dispersed in the polyacrylamide matrix. Strong polymer/MMT interaction was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The effective cross-link densities of these hydrogels are estimated in the range of 2.2–5.7 mol m–3. Uniaxial tensile tests showed a very high fracture elongation up to 11 800% and a fracture toughness up to 10.1 MJ m–3. Cyclic loading–unloading tests showed remarkable hysteresis, which indicates energy dissipation upon deformation. Residual strain after cyclic loadings could be recovered under mild conditions, with the recovery exten...

TL;DR: The first example of direct structural characterization of polyaromatic ions by coupling a Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer with an infrared free-electron laser is presented and opens the way to understanding chemical reaction paths.
Abstract: The first example of direct structural characterization of polyaromatic ions by coupling a Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer with an infrared free-electron laser is presented. Measurement of the IR spectra of selectively prepared ionic reactive intermediates is allowed by the association of the high peak power and wide tunability of the laser with the flexibility of the spectrometer, where several mass selection and ion reaction steps can be combined, as demonstrated in the case of iron cation complexes of hydrocarbons. The present experimental setup opens the way to understanding chemical reaction paths.
