    The Global Polarity of Alcoholic Solvents and Water – Importance of the Collectively Acting Factors Density, Refractive Index and Hydrogen Bonding Forces
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH-Verl., 2022) Spange, Stefan; Weiß, Nadine; Mayerhöfer, Thomas G.
    The DHBD quantity represents the hydroxyl group density of alcoholic solvents or water. DHBD is purely physically defined by the product of molar concentration of the solvent (N) and the factor Σn=n×f which reflects the number n and position (f-factor) of the alcoholic OH groups per molecule. Whether the hydroxyl group is either primary, secondary or tertiary is taken into account by f. Σn is clearly linearly correlated with the physical density or the refractive index of the alcohol derivative. Relationships of solvent-dependent UV/Vis absorption energies as ET(30) values, 129Xe NMR shifts and kinetic data of 2-chloro-2-methylpropane solvolysis with DHBD are demonstrated. It can be shown that the ET(30) solvent parameter reflects the global polarity of the hydrogen bond network rather than specific H-bond acidity. Significant correlations of the log k1 rate constants of the solvolysis reaction of 2-chloro-2-methylpropane with DHBD show the physical reasoning of the approach.

    Application of Thermal Response Measurements to Investigate Enhanced Water Adsorption Kinetics in Ball-Milled C2N-Type Materials
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH-Verl., 2022) Du, Shengjun; Leistenschneider, Desirée; Xiao, Jing; Dellith, Jan; Troschke, Erik; Oschatz, Martin
    Sorption-based water capture is an attractive solution to provide potable water in arid regions. Heteroatom-decorated microporous carbons with hydrophilic character are promising candidates for water adsorption at low humidity, but the strong affinity between the polar carbon pore walls and water molecules can hinder the water transport within the narrow pore system. To reduce the limitations of mass transfer, C2N-type carbon materials obtained from the thermal condensation of a molecular hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile (HAT-CN) precursor were treated mechanochemically via ball milling. Scanning electron microscopy as well as static light scattering reveal that large pristine C2N-type particles were split up to a smaller size after ball milling, thus increasing the pore accessibility which consequently leads to faster occupation of the water vapor adsorption sites. The major aim of this work is to demonstrate the applicability of thermal response measurements to track these enhanced kinetics of water adsorption. The adsorption rate constant of a C2N material condensed at 700 °C remarkably increased from 0.026 s−1 to 0.036 s−1 upon ball milling, while maintaining remarkably high water vapor capacity. This work confirms the advantages of small particle sizes in ultramicroporous materials on their vapor adsorption kinetics. It is demonstrated that thermal response measurements are a valuable and time-saving method to investigate water adsorption kinetics, capacities, and cycling stability.
