Phenylboronic acid-decorated nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared for tumor-targeted drug delivery. 3-carboxyphenylboronic acid (3-CPBA) was modified on the surface of conventional gelatin NPs (designated as NP1) to give tumor-targeting NPs (designated as NP2). The morphology and stability of NP1 and NP2 were then invest…

The biaxial strain and electric field dependent electronic properties of monolayer WTe 2 on top of Fe 3 O 4 (111) are investigated by first‐principles calculations. Our results demonstrate that mechanical strain effectively separates the contributions of interface state and valley states to the conductivity of monolay…

Abstract Aromaticity reversal in the lowest triplet state, or Baird's rule, has been postulated for the past few decades. Despite numerous theoretical works on aromaticity reversal, experimental study is still at a rudimentary stage. Herein, we investigate the aromaticity reversal in the lowest excited triplet state u…

In the tertiary oil recovery method known as "polymer flooding", the viscosity of the injected water is increased by dissolving partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide so as to lower the mobility ratio and raise the vertical and areal sweep efficiencies. However, its drawbacks include the degradation of the polymer in the…

Coconut husk is commonly retted in back water to extract coconut fiber. This retting takes about 10 months to complete and also pollutes the environment. A work on captive chemical retting of coconut fiber has carried out with NaOH, Na2S, and Na2CO3. It is found that the residual retting liquor contains unreacted alka…

Modeling isolated dislocations is challenging due to their long-ranged strain fields. Flexible boundary condition methods capture the correct long-range strain field of a defect by coupling the defect core to an infinite harmonic bulk through the lattice Green function (LGF). To improve the accuracy and efficiency of…

Coir fibers native to Nigeria and their modified forms viz: acetylated coir, oxidized coir, and mercerated coir have been characterized by spectroscopic, thermal, mechanical, and microscopic techniques. The CP/MAS 13C NMR spectra revealed that the modification of these fibers did not affect the cellulose type (C-1) an…

The influence of lithium excess and calcination temperature on the luminescence properties of the LiAl5O8:Eu under VUV excitation was investigated. The presence of both broad bands and sharp peaks in the VUV and X-ray emission spectra suggests the presence of Eu2+, even in absence of reducing atmosphere in the synthes…
