Researchers at the R&D Center of Lubricating and Protecting Materials of the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics have achieved the switchable hydrophobicity and oleophobicity on fabrics by counterion exchange. A cotton fabric was sequentially dipped in the poly(diallydimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) and poly(sodium 4-styrene sulfonate) (PSS...
The R&D Center for Green Chemistry and Catalysis of the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP), CAS, has developed one-step synthesis of N-alkylated anilines from nitrobenzenes and alcohols catalyzed by nano-gold catalyst. The yields to N-alkylated anilines were ~90% under relatively mild conditions. It is expected that the reaction can be...
