“…The mean ζ potential of CaCO 3 microparticles changed from −15.7 ± 0.5 to −27.4 ± 0.2 mV upon the deposition of the first layer (TA). The driving force for the deposition of TA onto CaCO 3 microparticles was an electrostatic association among the Ca 2+ cations of microparticles and phenolate groups of TA together with hydrogen bonding interactions among phenolic hydroxyl groups of TA and oxygen atoms of carbonate anions . Of note, CaCO 3 microparticles were synthesized in the presence of PSS to keep the vaterite form and spherical shape of the particles .…”

“…LbL growth of (B12 + QP2VP)-b-PEO micelles/TA and PVCL/TA The driving force for the deposition of TA onto CaCO 3 microparticles was an electrostatic association among the Ca 2+ cations of microparticles and phenolate groups of TA together with hydrogen bonding interactions among phenolic hydroxyl groups of TA and oxygen atoms of carbonate anions. 51 Of note, CaCO 3 microparticles were synthesized in the presence of PSS to keep the vaterite form and spherical shape of the particles. 52 It has been suggested in the literature that PSS was distributed evenly in the CaCO 3 particles rather than in a distinct part, and the surface layer also contained PSS.…”

The preparation of a polymer carrier for a boron delivery agent is presented through a combination of experimental and computational studies. A dodecahydro-closo-dodecaborate (B12H12)2– (B12) anion was used as a model boron-containing agent due to its high boron content. Quaternized poly(2-vinyl pyridine)-b-poly(ethylene oxide) (QP2VP-b-PEO) was chosen as a model neutral–cationic block copolymer to construct the carrier. The electrostatic association between QP2VP and B12 induced the self-assembly of QP2VP-b-PEO, resulting in micelles with (B12 + QP2VP)-core and PEO-corona. The mechanism of formation of (B12 + QP2VP)-b-PEO micelles was examined through density functional theory (DFT) calculations and classical simulations. (B12 + QP2VP)-b-PEO micelles were found to be undurable in biological medium. To enhance stability, micelles were utilized as building blocks together with poly(N-vinyl caprolactam) (PVCL) and tannic acid (TA) to construct layer-by-layer (LbL) microparticles. Cytotoxicity and cellular association of LbL particles were assessed using the HepG2 cell line. Multilayered particles were found to show no cellular cytotoxicity. Association studies and the boron content of treated cells through inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) showed that LbL microparticles were extensively associated with and successfully delivered boron to HepG2 cells. This study reveals the challenges and possible solutions to obtain stable self-assembled structures in a cell culture medium. These findings contribute to a fundamental understanding of the structure–property relationship in self-assembled micelles/LbL particles and provide a basis for further development of boron-containing polymer vehicles for boron neutron capture therapy.

The inhibition efficiency of polycarboxylic acid will decrease due to the weak acidity of carboxyl group in high Ca 2+ geothermal circulating water. To solve this problem, we synthesized a novel carboxyl terpolymer (MA-AEO-7/SMAS/MA) with adipate polyoxyethylene ether maleate monoester (MA-AEO-7), sodium methacrylate sulfonate (SMAS) and maleic acid (MA). Its inhibition efficiency and mechanism were investigated at high Ca 2+ . The results indicated that the inhibition efficiency of MA-AEO-7/SMAS/MA was 96.84% for CaCO 3 at the monomeric ratio of 0.5:1:1 and a dosage of 12 mg L À1 . The X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope results of CaCO 3 scale showed that the presence of MA-AEO-7/SMAS/MA converted CaCO 3 calcite to vaterite with smaller particle size. The molecular dynamics and density functional theory calculations indicated that the increased solubility of MA-AEO-7/SMAS/MA and the carboxylic acidity in MA-AEO-7/SMAS/MA enhanced the Ca 2+ chelating properties. The electrostatic repulsion between the sulfonic acid groups made MA-AEO-7/SMAS/MA exhibit good dispersion properties. These findings explained why the inhibition efficiency of MA-AEO-7/SMAS/MA remained above 80% at Ca 2+ concentration of 1500 mg L À1 , exceeding the 30%-50% of the three commercial scale inhibitors.This study provides practical insight for the development of scale inhibitors suitable for high Ca 2+ geothermal circulating water.
