The surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) technique is of great importance for insight into the transient reaction intermediates and mechanistic pathways involved in heterogeneously catalyzed chemical reactions under actual reaction conditions, especially in water.

Polypropylene grafted with maleic anhydride and styrene [PP- g-(MAH- co-St)] was prepared by melt grafting. Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy showed that maleic anhydride in the form of cyclic anhydride was successfully grafted onto the main chains of polypropylene. PP- g-(MAH- co-St) acts as a compatibilizer for the poly(propylene carbonate)/polypropylene meltblown nonwoven fabric slices. The effect of different contents and grafting proportions of PP- g-(MAH- co-St) on the structure and performance of the poly(propylene carbonate)/polypropylene slices was investigated. The poly(propylene carbonate)/polypropylene slices had favorable compatibility, tensile properties, thermal stability, and degradability, and their melt flow rates were reduced by the addition of PP- g-(MAH- co-St). Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy spectra showed that ring-opening reactions occur between the anhydride functional groups of PP- g-(MAH- co-St) and poly(propylene carbonate). Ring-opening reactions, chemical bonds, cocrystallization, increased interface adhesion forces, and reduced interfacial tension may be the mechanisms by which PP- g-(MAH- co-St) acts a compatibilizer for poly(propylene carbonate)/polypropylene slices.

Pentacoordinate Al catalysts comprising bipyridine (bpy) and phenanthroline (phen) backbones were synthesized, their activity in epoxide/anhydride copolymerization studied, and the products of stoichiometric ring-opening of anhydrides characterized.
