In this study, we extend the range of inorganic materials produced from polymeric precursors to include copper composites. Soluble complexes between poly(2-vinylpyridine) (P2VPy) and cupric chloride were prepared in a mixed solvent of 95% methanol 5% water. Pyrolysis of the isolated complexes results in the formation of carbonaceous composites of copper. The decomposition mechanism of the complexes was studied by optical, infrared, x-ray photoelectron and pyrolysis mass spectroscopy as well as thermogravimetric analysis and magnetic susceptibility measurements.

Copper has been employed commonly in relation with carbohydrates and aminoacids but other analytes can also be determined. Microalignment of the electrode with the channel outlet [89], deposition of a thin layer [81,108] or incorporation of a wire [21] are examples of in-channel formats. End-channel configurations such as those obtained by using a guide tube [11] or attaching a Cu wire perpendicularly to the outlet [32] after chip bonding were tested. Carbon nanotube (CNT)/copper composite electrodes have proved to be more sensitive, compared to the Cu and CNT alone, in the determination of carbohydrates [109].

The double microemulsion-mediated process also provides a convenient method for preparing a metal-containing sihcate coating. The two microemulsion systems contained two common components anionic sirrfactant AOT and cyclohexane [134]. The difference was that the first microemulsion consisted of an aqueous solution of sodiirm metasihcate (0.2 M) and 10 wt% SDS as the co-surfactant, while the second microemulsion consisted of an aqueous solution of copper nitrate (0.1 M) and 10 wt% SDS. The copper-ion microemulsion was added to the silicate-ion microemulsion with constant stirring. After 8 h of gel-lation, and ageing for an additional 24 h, copper nitrate crystals were identified within the sihcate network. SUica-copper composite powders with various copper contents (4-20 wt%) and surface areas of 200-400 m /g were synthesized. 

Tsuya et al ° studied the optimum concentration of several different solid lubricant powders in copper composites. In all cases except calcium fluoride they found that the friction of cold-pressed copper composites reached a minimum value at a lubricant concentration of about 7 - 10%, and remained fairly constant up to a concentration of almost 90%. 

We ultimately settled on a novel catalytic route for the production of DSIDA. The initial catalyst was a Raney copper composition that allowed us to convert diethanolamine, to DSIDA in a really interesting dehydrogenation reaction. This is an endothermic reaction that gives off hydrogen as a by-product. We were able to get the facility to work with this catalyst, but there were a lot of operational issues associated with this technology. Raney copper is a very malleable soft metal which resulted in catalyst stability issues. Ultimately we needed to go ahead and find something that was better. 

Implications for the Copper-Catalyzed Oxidation of Polyolefins. Correlation of Contributing Mechanisms. The susceptibility of a polyolefin/copper composite to enhanced oxidation rates will depend critically on the rate of dissolution of copper ions from the copper (oxide) surface and the subsequent rates at which catalytically active concentrations of copper ions can be established within significantly large regions of the polymer matrix. Dissolution of copper with formation of interfacial salt layers appears to occur at very early times (4) (during the induction period) and can be described by overall reactions such as Equation 7 ...

Figures 3 and 4 presents AFM and SEM images of the dispersed phase composites of zinc and copper, obtained before (Figs. 3a, and 4a) and after (Figs. 3b, and 4b) UV treatment ( = 255,271 nm). Before zinc and copper composites have the form colonies (layers) densely laid down against each other plates with linear dimensions from hundreds of nanometers to tens of microns or more, and their thickness in the transverse direction in the four - ten times less. The picture changes significantly after UV and visible ( = 510, 578 nm) laser treatment. The fragmentation of composites stmctures is obvious. Length plates zinc composites rarely exceed 1 pm (150-800 nm) and athickness of about 20-50 nm. Similar transformations are observed in composites of copper.

Similarly, marine fouling organisms are much less successful in establishing themselves on the surface of nonpassive nickel-copper compositions because the...
