Accurate and reproducible measurement of the structure and properties of high-value nanoparticles is extremely important for their commercialization. A significant proportion of engineered nanoparticle systems consist of some form of nominally core-shell structure, whether by design or unintentionally. Often, these do not form an ideal core-shell structure, with typical deviations including polydispersity of the core or shell, uneven or incomplete shells, noncentral cores, and others. Such systems may be created with or without intent, and in either case an understanding of the conditions for formation of such particles is desirable. Precise determination of the structure, composition, size, and shell thickness of such particles can prove challenging without the use of a suitable range of characterization techniques. Here, the authors present two such polymer core-shell nanoparticle systems, consisting of polytetrafluoroethylene cores coated with a range of thicknesses of either polymethylmethacrylate or polystyrene. By consideration of surface energy, it is shown that these particles are expected to possess distinctly differing coating structures, with the polystyrene coating being incomplete. A comprehensive characterization of these systems is demonstrated, using a selection of complementary techniques including scanning electron microscopy, scanning transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, dynamic light scattering, differential centrifugal sedimentation, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. By combining the results provided by these techniques, it is possible to achieve superior characterization and understanding of the particle structure than could be obtained by considering results separately.
Zur Sicherung von Deponien und Altlasten mit dem Ziel eines langfristig wirksamen Grundwasserschutzes werden seit Mitte der 80er Jahre Kombinationsdichtungen (Verbund aus Kunststoffdichtungsbahn und mineralischen Dichtschichten) eingesetzt. Um deren Langzeitbeständigkeit auch unter extremen Bedingungen bewerten zu können, wurden Permeationsmesszellen, welche die Verhältnisse in der Deponie nachstellen und über einen Zeitraum von 12 Jahren mit einem Mehrkomponentengemisch konzentrierter organischer Verbindungen beaufschlagt worden waren, zerlegt und die Auswirkungen der Schadstoffpermeation auf die Abdichtungsmaterialien untersucht. Schwerpunkte der hier vorgestellten Arbeiten waren Untersuchungen: - zur Auswirkung der Permeation des Gemisches an organischen Verbindungen auf die Eigenschaften der Kunststoffdichtungsbahn, - zur vertikalen Verteilung der organischen Verbindungen in den mineralischen Dichtungen, - zu Veränderungen mineralogischer, mikromorphologischer und bodenmechanischer Eigenschaften der mineralischen Dichtungsmaterialien, - zu mikrobiellen Aktivitäten in den mineralischen Dichtungen. Daneben wurden Stofftransportparameter bestimmt und eine Modellierung des Stofftransportes durchgeführt. Die verschiedenen untersuchten Materialien der Kombinationsdichtungen erwiesen sich unter den extremen Bedingungen als ein stabiles und effizientes Abdichtungssystem.
Long term behaviour of composite liners under exposure to a mixture of concentrated hydrocarbons
(1999)
Composite liners (a geomembrane in intimate contact with a mineral liner) are frequently used to line landfills and contaminated sites. It is therefore very important to characterise the behaviour of these systems even under extreme conditions.
An investigation was undertaken to determine the influence of a mixture of concentrated organic contaminants on composite liner materials taken from test cells that had been dismantled after a 12-year permeation test.
The organic hydrocarbons had permeated the HDPE-geomembrane and had then migrated or had been adsorbed within the mineral liners, depending on their properties. The obtained concentration profiles of the contaminant mixture components indicate that the various mineral layer materials have selective retardation abilities which correspond to the different parameters of the organic compounds as well as of the mineral layer.
In addition, contaminant transport in the composite liners tested was modelled and the results of the model analysis compared with measurement data. An example (acetone) illustrates the calculated spatial and temporal contaminant concentration.
The composite liners investigated exhibit a very good sealing capacity against the concentrated organic contaminants used.
