A quantitative analysis of the technical octabromo diphenylether mixture DE-79 is performed by (1)H NMR, avoiding any separation technique. The mass fractions are 36% BDE183, 19% BDE197, 13.1% BDE207, 9.1% BDE196, 7.3% BDE153, 6.2% BDE203, 2.2% BDE180, 1.6% BDE171, 1.2% BDE154 and 0.7% BDE206, considering an additional mass fraction of 1.3% BDE209 determined by HPLC analysis with a diode array detector (DAD). HPLC chromatograms of the BDEs in commercial decaBDE, octaBDE DE-79 and pentaBDE DE-71 and UV spectra of the components of DE-79 are presented. The photolysis of the octaBDE mixture DE-79, dissolved in tetrahydrofuran, by simulated sunlight is monitored by HPLC-DAD and observed to proceed mainly via debromination. Polybrominated dibenzofurans are identified from their UV spectra as significant intermediates.

Tungsten oxide (WO) electrochromic devices are obtaining increasing interest due to their color change and thermal regulation. However, most previous work focuses on the absorption or transmission spectra of materials, rather than the optical parameters evolution in full spectrum in the electrochromic processes. Herein, we developed a systematic protocol of ex situ methods to clarify the evolutions of subtle structure changes, Raman vibration modes, and optical parameters of WO thin films in electrochromic processes as stimulated by dosage-dependent Li insertion.

In this study, we synthesized perovskite BaSrSnO ceramics with a unique thorn-like microstructure using the solid-state reaction method. The structural and complex dielectric properties were investigated in detail. X-ray diffraction was employed to characterize the phase purity, while X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was used to analyze the chemical state of the components.

The fast and accurate quantitative detection of camellia oil products is significant for multiple reasons. In this study, rice bran oil and corn oil, whose Raman spectra both hold great similarities with camellia oil, are blended with camellia oil, and the concentration of each composition is predicted by models with varying feature extraction methods and regression algorithms. Back propagation neural network (BPNN), which has been rarely investigated in previous work, is used to construct regression models, the performances of which are compared with models using random forest (RF) and partial least squares regression (PLSR).

Anxi Tieguanyin belongs to the oolong tea category and is one of the top ten most famous teas in China. In this study, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology was combined with chemometric methods to achieve the rapid determination of free amino acid and tea polyphenol contents in Tieguanyin tea. Here, the spectral data of Tieguanyin tea samples of four quality grades were obtained via visible near-infrared hyperspectroscopy in the range of 400-1000 nm, and the free amino acid and tea polyphenol contents of the samples were detected.
