Incidentally, ionic liquids (ILs) have been among the top research subjects for the same applications and also for inorganic materials synthesis. As a result, the exploitation of the peculiar properties of ILs for metal sulfide synthesis could provide attractive new avenues for the generation of new, highly specific metal sulfides for numerous applications. This article therefore describes current developments in metal sulfide nano-particle synthesis as exemplified by a number of highlight examples. Moreover, the article demonstrates how ILs have been used in metal sulfide synthesis and discusses the benefits of using ILs over more traditional approaches. Finally, the article demonstrates some technological challenges and how ILs could be used to further advance the production and specific property engineering of metal sulfide nanomaterials, again based on a number of selected examples.}, language = {en} } @article{MaiBoyeYuanetal.2015, author = {Mai, Tobias and Boye, Susanne and Yuan, Jiayin and V{\"o}lkel, Antje and Gr{\"a}wert, Marlies and G{\"u}nter, Christina and Lederer, Albena and Taubert, Andreas}, title = {Poly(ethylene oxide)-based block copolymers with very high molecular weights for biomimetic calcium phosphate mineralization}, series = {RSC Advances : an international journal to further the chemical sciences}, journal = {RSC Advances : an international journal to further the chemical sciences}, number = {5}, publisher = {RSC Publishing}, address = {London}, issn = {2046-2069}, doi = {10.1039/c5ra20035k}, pages = {103494 -- 103505}, year = {2015}, abstract = {The present article is among the first reports on the effects of poly(ampholyte)s and poly(betaine)s on the biomimetic formation of calcium phosphate.

The resulting copolymers are either positively charged, ampholytic, or betaine block copolymers. All the polymers have very high molecular weights of over 106 g mol-1. All polymers are water-soluble and show a strong effect on the precipitation and dissolution of calcium phosphate. The strongest effects are observed with triblock copolymers based on a large poly(ethylene oxide) middle block (nominal Mn = 100 000 g mol-1). Surprisingly, the data show that there is a need for positive charges in the polymers to exert tight control over mineralization and dissolution, but that the exact position of the charge in the polymer is of minor importance for both calcium phosphate precipitation and dissolution.}, language = {en} } @article{LoebbickeChananaSchlaadetal.2011, author = {L{\"o}bbicke, Ruben and Chanana, Munish and Schlaad, Helmut and Pilz-Allen, Christine and G{\"u}nter, Christina and M{\"o}hwald, Helmuth and Taubert, Andreas}, title = {Polymer Brush Controlled Bioinspired Calcium Phosphate Mineralization and Bone Cell Growth}, series = {Biomacromolecules : an interdisciplinary journal focused at the interface of polymer science and the biological sciences}, volume = {12}, journal = {Biomacromolecules : an interdisciplinary journal focused at the interface of polymer science and the biological sciences}, number = {10}, publisher = {American Chemical Society}, address = {Washington}, issn = {1525-7797}, doi = {10.1021/bm200991b}, pages = {3753 -- 3760}, year = {2011}, abstract = {Polymer brushes on thiol-modified gold surfaces were synthesized by using terminal thiol groups for the surface initiated free radical polymerization of methacrylic acid and dimethylaminotheyl methacrylate, respectively.

Unlike many previous examples, the current IGs show a decreasing stability in stress-strain experiments on increasing IL fractions. The conductivities of the current IGs are lower than those observed in similar examples in the literature. Both effects are caused by a two-phase structure with micrometer-sized IL-rich domains homogeneously dispersed an IL-deficient continuous PMMA phase.

Bis(benzyltriethylammonium)-, bis(trimethylphenylammonium)-, bis(ethyltriphenylphosphonium)-, bis(benzyltriphenylphosphonium)-, and bis(tetraphenylarsonium)tetrachloridocuprate(II) were synthesised and characterised by elemental, IR, EPR and X-ray analyses. The results of the crystallographic analyses show distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry of all [CuCl4]2- anions in the five complexes and prove that all investigated complexes are stabilised by hydrogen bonds of different intensities. Despite the use of sterically demanding ammonium, phosphonium and arsonium cations to obtain the separation of the paramagnetic Cu(II) centres for EPR spectroscopy no hyperfine structure was observed in the EPR spectra but the principal values of the electron Zeeman tensor, g∥ and g⊥, could be determined. With these EPR data and the crystallographic parameters we were able to carry out a correlation study to anticipate the structural situation of tetrachloridocuprates in different physical states. This correlation is in good agreement with DFT calculations.}, language = {en} } @misc{HentrichJungingerBrunsetal.2015, author = {Hentrich, Doreen and Junginger, Mathias and Bruns, Michael and B{\"o}rner, Hans Gerhard and Brandt, Jessica and Brezesinski, Gerald and Taubert, Andreas}, title = {Interface-controlled calcium phosphate mineralization}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-89540}, pages = {6901 -- 6913}, year = {2015}, abstract = {The phase behavior of an amphiphilic block copolymer based on a poly(aspartic acid) hydrophilic block and a poly(n-butyl acrylate) hydrophobic block was investigated at the air-water and air-buffer interface. The polymer forms stable monomolecular films on both subphases. At low pH, the isotherms exhibit a plateau. Compression-expansion experiments and infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy suggest that the plateau is likely due to the formation of polymer bi- or multilayers. At high pH the films remain intact upon compression and no multilayer formation is observed. Furthermore, the mineralization of calcium phosphate beneath the monolayer was studied at different pH. The pH of the subphase and thus the polymer charge strongly affects the phase behavior of the film and the mineral formation. After 4 h of mineralization at low pH, atomic force microscopy shows smooth mineral films with a low roughness. With increasing pH the mineral films become inhomogeneous and the roughness increases. Transmission electron microscopy confirms this: at low pH a few small but uniform particles form whereas particles grown at higher pH are larger and highly agglomerated. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirm the formation of calcium phosphate. The levels of mineralization are higher in samples grown at high pH.}, language = {en} } @misc{XieHuangTitiricietal.2014, author = {Xie, Zai-Lai and Huang, Xing and Titirici, Maria-Magdalena and Taubert, Andreas}, title = {Mesoporous graphite nanoflakes via ionothermal carbonization of fructose and their use in dye removal}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-99427}, year = {2014}, abstract = {The large-scale green synthesis of graphene-type two-dimensional materials is still challenging.

The resulting composites consist of oligo-layer graphite nanoflakes and iron carbide particles. The mesoporosity, strong magnetic moment, and high specific surface area of the composites make them attractive for water purification with facile magnetic separation. Moreover, Fe3Cfree graphite can be obtained via acid etching, providing access to fairly large amounts of graphite material. The current approach is versatile and scalable, and thus opens the door to ionothermal synthesis towards the larger-scale synthesis of materials that are, although not made via a sustainable process, useful for water treatment such as the removal of organic molecules.}, language = {en} } @misc{JungingerKuebelSchacheretal.2013, author = {Junginger, Mathias and K{\"u}bel, Christian and Schacher, Felix H. and M{\"u}ller, Axel H.
