Grafting a polymer at the surface of a carbonated material containing carboxyl, amine and / or hydroxyl functions at its surface. This material is suspended in a solution comprising the polymer to be grafted, which includes a carboxyl, amine and / or hydroxyl function, the solution also comprising a solvent of the polymer. This is followed by a treatment causing dehydration into a carboxyl function, an amide and / or hydroxyl function and the polymer is thus grafted on the carbonated material by means of ester or amide bonds. Utilization in the cathode or anode of an electrochemical generator, in a polymer material with low polarity, in an ink, and as a conductive deposit on flexible plastic used as electrical contact, electromagnetic protection and antistatic protection.

The invention relates to Group 1 metal / silica gel compositions comprising silica gel and an alkali metal or an alkali metal alloy. The compositions of the inventions are described as Stage 0, I, II, and III materials. These materials differ in their preparation and chemical reactivity. Each successive stage may be prepared directly using the methods described below or from an earlier stage material. Stage 0 materials may, for example, be prepared using liquid alloys of Na and K which are rapidly absorbed by silica gel (porous SiO2) under isothermal conditions, preferably at or just above room temperature, to form loose black powders that retain much of the reducing ability of the parent metals. When the low melting Group 1 metals are absorbed into the silica gel, a mild exothermic reaction produces Stage I material, loose black powders that are indefinitely stable in dry air. Subsequent heating to 400° C. produces Stage II materials, which are also loose black powders. Further heating above 400° C. forms Stage III material with release of some Group 1 metal. It is believed that Stage I, II and III materials represent reductions of the silica gel after absorption of the Group 1 metal. Preferred Group 1 metal / silica gel compositions of the invention are those containing sodium, potassium, or sodium-potassium alloys with sodium and sodium-potassium alloys being most preferred. Each stage of the Group 1 metal / silica gel composition of the invention may be used as a reducing agent reacting with a number of reducible organic materials in the same manner known for alkali metals and their alloys.

Disclosed is a coordination polymer crystal with porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), in which, while a crystal state of the coordination polymer crystal is maintained, an additional material selected from the group consisting of an organic compound, a metal cluster, and an organometallic compound is chemically bonded to the coordination polymer crystal. Therefore it is possible easily adsorb and store more guest molecules regardless of a change in an ambient temperature or pressure due to the chemically bonded additional material.

Sulfonate salts have the formula: R1COOCH2CH2CF2CF2SO3−M+ wherein R1 is alkyl, aryl or hetero-aryl, M+ is a Li, Na, K, ammonium or tetramethylammonium ion. Onium salts, oxime sulfonates and sulfonyloxyimides derived from these salts are effective photoacid generators in chemically amplified resist compositions.

Sulfonate salts have the formula:R1SO3—CH(Rf)—CF2SO3−M+wherein R1 is alkyl or aryl, Rf is H or trifluoromethyl, and M+ is a Li, Na, K, ammonium or tetramethylammonium ion. Onium salts, oximesulfonates and sulfonyloxyimides and other compounds derived from these sulfonate salts are effective photoacid generators in chemically amplified resist compositions.

The invention relates to lithium metal / porous metal oxide compositions. These lithium metal compositions are prepared by mixing liquid lithium metal with a porous metal oxide in an inert atmosphere under exothermic conditions sufficient to absorb the liquid lithium metal into the porous metal oxide pores. The lithium metal / porous metal oxide compositions of the invention are preferably loaded with lithium metal up to about 40% by weight, with about 20% to 40% by weight being the most preferred loading. The invention also relates to lithium reagent-porous metal oxide compositions having RLi absorbed into a porous oxide. The preparation and use of these compositions are also described.
