Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research is pleased to publish this virtual special issue (VSI), which contains 19 invited research articles from authors who made outstanding presentations at the 254th ACS National Meeting in Washington, DC. The theme of the National Meeting was “Chemistry’s Impact on the Global Economy”, and globalization is evident in this VSI, with contributions coming from authors on four different continents. The invited papers were selected from a broad cross section of symposia, and most of the contributions deal with polymers or catalysts. Each of these materials are vitally important in the global economy. Polymeric materials can be end products and catalytic materials enable synthesis of other chemical products. Chemistry plays a huge role in both the manufacture and use of catalytic and polymeric materials.

This compilation is our fifth virtual special issue containing invited papers from an ACS National Meeting (http://pubs.acs.org/page/iecred/vi/applied-chemistry-economy-washdc-2018). Six of the articles (1−6) deal with catalysis or new catalytic materials for reactions such as CO2 hydrogenation to make oxygenates or hydrocarbons, (1,6) water gas shift, (5) and photodegradation. (2) Nine of the articles (7−15) focus on some aspect of macromolecular chemistry. These articles consider biological/biomedical applications (7,8,11,13,15) and methods for producing polyols with unique architecture, (8) precision polyolefins, (10) and polymer brushes. (11,12) Several articles (16−18) have a connection to energy production, utilization, or storage and illustrate ways that chemistry plays a role in powering the global economy; others tackle environmental problems. (2,19)

We trust that this VSI with invited papers from the 254th ACS National Meeting will be valued by both our authors and our readers.

      Mech. and viscoelastic properties of precision polyolefins, poly(4-phenylcyclopentene) (P4PCP) and its hydrogenated analog (H2-P4PCP) contg. atactic Ph branches at exactly every five carbons along the backbone are explored. Both materials are amorphous with a glass transition temp. of ∼17 ± 3 °C. Rheol. studies detd. that P4PCP has an entanglement molar mass (Me = 10.0 kg mol-1) much higher and closer to polystyrene than H2-P4PCP (Me = 3.6 kg mol-1). Both materials have elastomeric and shape memory properties at ambient temps., which were further explored through strain hysteresis measurements. H2-P4PCP has an elastic recovery of ∼95% at max. strain values up to 500% as detd. by uniaxial tensile testing. Time-temp. superposition anal., Williams-Landel-Ferry consts., and further mech. anal. are discussed and compared to previously reported ethylene-styrene copolymers of similar phenyl-branch content within the microstructure.

      Design and Synthesis of 3D Potassium-Ion Pre-Intercalated Graphene for Supercapacitors
      Chang, Liang; Stacchiola, Dario J.; Hu, Yun Hang
      Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research (2018), 57 (10), 3610-3616CODEN: IECRED; ISSN:0888-5885. (American Chemical Society)
      Here, a novel material-3D K-ion preintercalated graphene-was designed and synthesized via one step using a new reaction between K and CO. This material exhibited excellent performance as electrodes for aq. sym. supercapacitors. When the electrode was scaled up from 3.0 to 8.0 mg/cm2, negligible capacitance degrdn. was obsd., leading to a very high areal capacitance of 1.50 F/cm2 at 1 A/g. Even if a large operating temp. of -15 or 55° was used, its excellent electrochem. performance remained with specific capacitances of 208 F/g at 55°, 184 F/g at 25°, and 98 F/g at -15°. This could be attributed to 3D structure and K+ preintercalation of the material, which provides rich active sites for elec. double-layer formation, lower ion transport resistance, and shorter diffusion distance.

      Superior Capacitive Performance Enabled by Edge-Oriented and Interlayer-Expanded MoS2 Nanosheets Anchored on Reduced Graphene Oxide Sheets
      Ji, Yajun; Wei, Qilin; Sun, Yugang
      Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research (2018), 57 (13), 4571-4576CODEN: IECRED; ISSN:0888-5885. (American Chemical Society)
      Performance of MoS2-based supercapacitors is severely restricted by the limited ionic intercalation in the MoS2 mol. interlayer gaps and the poor intrinsic elec. cond. of MoS2. To tackle these challenges, high-d. edge-oriented (EO) MoS2 nanosheets with an expanded interlayer spacing of 9.4 Å supported on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets are synthesized with the assistance of microwave heating. Using the edge-oriented and interlayer-expanded (EO&IE) MoS2/rGO as active electrode materials of capacitors, the specific capacitance can reach 346.5 F g-1 at a scan rate of 1 mV s-1, which is higher than the values of most reported supercapacitors using various MoS2/graphene composites. The enhanced capacitance originates from the fast and easy intercalation of ions in the supported EO&IE MoS2 nanosheets, facilitated by high elec. cond. of the rGO supporting sheets as well as the edge-oriented geometry and expanded interlayer spacing of the MoS2 nanosheets.

        Design and Synthesis of 3D Potassium-Ion Pre-Intercalated Graphene for Supercapacitors

        Here, a novel material-3D K-ion preintercalated graphene-was designed and synthesized via one step using a new reaction between K and CO. This material exhibited excellent performance as electrodes for aq. sym. supercapacitors. When the electrode was scaled up from 3.0 to 8.0 mg/cm2, negligible capacitance degrdn. was obsd., leading to a very high areal capacitance of 1.50 F/cm2 at 1 A/g. Even if a large operating temp. of -15 or 55° was used, its excellent electrochem. performance remained with specific capacitances of 208 F/g at 55°, 184 F/g at 25°, and 98 F/g at -15°. This could be attributed to 3D structure and K+ preintercalation of the material, which provides rich active sites for elec. double-layer formation, lower ion transport resistance, and shorter diffusion distance.

        Superior Capacitive Performance Enabled by Edge-Oriented and Interlayer-Expanded MoS2 Nanosheets Anchored on Reduced Graphene Oxide Sheets
        Ji, Yajun; Wei, Qilin; Sun, Yugang
        Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research (2018), 57 (13), 4571-4576CODEN: IECRED; ISSN:0888-5885. (American Chemical Society)
        Performance of MoS2-based supercapacitors is severely restricted by the limited ionic intercalation in the MoS2 mol. interlayer gaps and the poor intrinsic elec. cond. of MoS2. To tackle these challenges, high-d. edge-oriented (EO) MoS2 nanosheets with an expanded interlayer spacing of 9.4 Å supported on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets are synthesized with the assistance of microwave heating. Using the edge-oriented and interlayer-expanded (EO&IE) MoS2/rGO as active electrode materials of capacitors, the specific capacitance can reach 346.5 F g-1 at a scan rate of 1 mV s-1, which is higher than the values of most reported supercapacitors using various MoS2/graphene composites. The enhanced capacitance originates from the fast and easy intercalation of ions in the supported EO&IE MoS2 nanosheets, facilitated by high elec. cond. of the rGO supporting sheets as well as the edge-oriented geometry and expanded interlayer spacing of the MoS2 nanosheets.
