Ethnic foods are healthy products interesting for the new societies. Mesquite flour offers another option for making gluten-free recipes as part of a diet for people with celiac disease. The physicochemical properties of mesquite flours (Prosopis laevigata) were characterized. The mesquite pods were dried at 60°C, 15% RH and 2 m/s airflow; then a grinding and sieving process were applied. The nutritional composition and the sorption isotherms were obtained at 30, 35, 40 and 45°C  for  water activities of 0.07-0.9. The particle-size distribution, morphology and thermal stability of the flours were determined by different methods. Keywords: Mesquite Flours; drying; isotherms; chemical properties; morphology

AIMS: To perform a physicochemical and phytochemical characterization of Jatropha curcas latex and to investigate its antiangiogenic potential. METHODS: We performed an initial physicochemical characterization of J. curcas latex using thermal gravimetric analyses and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy. After that, phenols, tannins and flavonoids were quantified. Finally, the potential of J. curcas latex to inhibit angiogenesis was evaluated using the chick chorioallantoic membrane model. Five groups of 20 fertilized chicken eggs each had the chorioallantoic membrane exposed to the following solutions: (1) water, negative control; (2) dexamethasone, angiogenesis inhibitor; (3) Regederm®, positive control; (4) 25% J. curcas latex diluted in water; (5) 50% J. curcas latex diluted in water; and (6) J. curcas crude latex. Analysis of the newly-formed vascular net was made through captured images and quantification of the number of pixels. Histological analyses were performed to evaluate the inflammation, neovascularization, and hyperemia parameters. The results were statically analyzed with a significance level set at p ˂0.05.RESULTS: Physicochemical characterization showed that J. curcas latex presented a low amount of cis-1.4-polyisoprene, which reduced its elasticity and thermal stability. Phytochemical analyses of J. curcas latex identified a substantial amount of phenols, tannins, and flavonoids (51.9%, 11.8%, and 0.07% respectively). Using a chick chorioallantoic membrane assay, we demonstrated the antiangiogenic potential of J. curcas latex. The latex induced a decrease in the vascularization of the membranes when compared with neutral and positive controls (water and Regederm®). However, when compared with the negative control (dexamethasone), higher J. curcas latex concentrations showed no significant differences.CONCLUSIONS: J. curcas latex showed low thermal stability, and consisted of phenols, tannins, and flavonoids, but little or no rubber. Moreover, this latex demonstrated a significant antiangiogenic activity on a chick chorioallantoic membrane model. The combination of antimutagenic, cytotoxic, antioxidant and antiangiogenic properties makes J. curcas latex a potential target for the development of new drugs.

AbstractSeveral inorganic/organic nanocomposites were prepared via solution-blending of cage-like octahexyl-polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (Oh-POSS) with polystyrene (PS) in THF solvent. FTIR and 29Si-NMR were employed to characterize the structures of the nanocomposites. SEM pictures showed that the sample films were smooth and no POSS aggregation was observed when POSS content was lower than 1.0 wt%. TGA and DSC were used to investigate the thermal property. The results showed that the incorporation of nanosized Oh-POSS enhanced the thermal stability of PS with low POSS content. When 1.0 wt% of Oh-POSS was incorporated into PS matrix, the Tg and Td increased by 7.7 °C and 8.2 °C, respectively. However, higher POSS contents (>1.0 wt%) would deteriorate the thermal property of the nanocomposites due to the severe congregation of POSS..

Studies of degradation have verified that the decomposition of some quaternary ammonium salts can begin to be significant at the temperature of about 180 ° C and like most thermoplastics are processed at least around this temperature, the thermal stability of the salt in clay should always be considered. Some salts are more stable than others, being necessary to study the degradation mechanisms of each case. In this work, four quaternary ammonium salts were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TG). The results of DSC and TG showed that the salts based chloride (Cl-) anion begin to degrade at similar temperatures, while the salt based bromide (Br-) anion degrades at higher temperature. Subsequently, a quaternary ammonium salt was chosen to be used in organoclays, depending on its chemical structure and its thermal behavior.

Some functional luminol derivatives with aromatic substituted groups have been designed and synthesized from the reaction of the corresponding aromatic acyl chloride precursors with luminol. It has been found that depending on the size of aromatic groups, the formed luminol derivatives showed different properties, indicating distinct regulation of molecular skeletons. UV and IR data confirmed commonly the formation of imide group as well as aromatic segment in molecular structures. Thermal analysis showed that the thermal stability of luminol derivatives with p-phthaloyl segment was the highest in those derivatives. The difference of thermal stability is mainly attributed to the formation of imide group and aromatic substituent groups in molecular structure. The present results have demonstrated that the special properties of luminol derivatives can be turned by modifying molecular structures of objective compounds with proper substituted groups, which show potential application in functional material field and ECL sensor.

Thermal oxidation of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers was accomplished at temperatures up to 250°C for different oxidation times. Chemical integration of PAN fibers with an aqueous solution of ammonium persulfate was performed before starting thermal oxidation. The results recommend that ammonium persulfate integration enhanced the oxidation reactions of the PAN fibers and resulting in enhanced thermal stability. Ammonium persulfate impregnation followed by the oxidation process in the air environment leads to significant deviations in the characteristics of PAN fibers. To perform structural characterization of the raw and ammonium persulfate (APS) incorporated and stabilized samples, XRD, IR-spectroscopy, TGA was executed in this study. Investigation of the XRD and infrared spectroscopy outcomes recommended quick aromatization reactions with growing oxidation periods. The TGA traces indicated a comparative enhancement in the thermal stability of the PAN fibers by the increased carbon yield with the rise of the oxidation time. The overall findings recommend that ammonium persulfate incorporation was very influential in stimulating the oxidation process.

In this work, a phase-change energy storage nonwoven fabric was made of polyurethane phase-change material (PUPCM) by a non-woven melt-blown machine. Polyethylene glycol 2000 was used as the phase transition unit and diphenyl-methane-diisocyanate as the hard segment to prepare PUPCM. Thermal stability of the PUPCM was evaluated through thermal stability analysis. The performance of pristine PUPCM was determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry to analyze the spinning technology of spinning temperature and the stretching process. Phase-change energy storage nonwoven fabric (413.22 g/m2) was prepared, and the morphology, solid–solid exothermic phase transition, mechanical properties, and the structures were characterized. The enthalpy of solid–solid exothermic phase transition reached 60.17 mJ/mg (peaked at 23.14°C). The enthalpy of solid–solid endothermic phase transition reached 67.09 mJ/mg (peaked at 34.34°C). The strength and elongation of phase-change energy storage nonwoven fabric were found suitable for garments and tent fabrics.
