A novel aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) composed of a small molecule organic compound tropine and an organic or inorganic salt aqueous solution has been developed for the first time. The phase behavior of tropine-salt ATPS was systemically investigated and the phase equilibrium data were measured in different temperatures and concentrations and correlated by the Merchuk equation with satisfactory results. The detection of the conductivity and particle size proved the formation of micelle in the process of forming tropine-salt ATPS. The separation application of the ATPS was assessed with the removal of hydrophilic benzothiazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) from aqueous solution. The result showed that ILs were effectively extracted into the top tropine-rich phase. Finally, ILs in the top tropine-rich phase were further separated by the means of adsorption-desorption with DM301 macroporous resin and ethanol. The method of novel tropine-salt ATPS combined with adsorption-desorption is demonstrated a promising alternative thought and approach for the removal or recovery of hydrophilic compounds from aqueous media and also could provide a potential application for bio-separation.

Diazocines are photoswitches derived from azobenzenes by bridging the two phenyl rings in position with a CHCH group forming an eight membered (diazocine) ring. Diazocine is superior to most azobenzenes in almost all photophysical properties (switching efficiency, quantum yield, wavelengths etc.).

We developed a novel pulsed laser-assisted process for the fabrication of advanced composites of nonequilibrium gold nanoparticles on carbon fiber paper supports. Our one-step process integrates the generation of nanoparticles with their surface attachment and solves longstanding nanoparticle adhesion and electrical contact issues. Irradiation of hydrophilic carbon fiber paper submerged in aqueous HAuCl solution by nanosecond laser pulses produced composites with uniform distribution of gold nanoparticles on carbon fibers, taking advantage of the high internal surface area of carbon fiber paper.

In the undertaken research, we investigated the preparation route's influence mainly on the surface properties of the final form of Mg-containing zeolite Y. The parent zeolite was subjected to modification with aqueous solutions of magnesium nitrate via impregnation, ion-exchange, and ultrasonic techniques, respectively. The results obtained from the Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Computer Tomography (CT), and crystallinity evaluations indicated that the method of zeolite modification influenced the physicochemical properties of the studied samples.

The effects of optical clearing of implantable collagen materials were studied using optical clearing agents (OCAs) based on aqueous glucose solutions of various concentrations. By measuring the kinetics of the collimated transmission spectra, the diffusion and permeability coefficients of the OCAs of collagen materials were determined as = (0.22 ± 0.

Chitosan is a water-soluble polysaccharide with good adherence to negatively charged surfaces and reported antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Coating the surfaces of medical devices with chitosan is a promising strategy for harnessing these benefits. However, the surface properties of commercial polymers need to be altered to enable the bonding of thin chitosan films.
