A characterization method was developed, which visualizes the wetted solid area fraction ( <italic>f</italic> <sub>s</sub> ) of the Cassie–Baxter model on a roughened surface.
Liquid repellent surfaces are being promisingly applied in industry and our daily lives.
The phase behavior of B1AB2C tetrablock terpolymer melts is systematically studied using the self-consistent field theory, focusing on the emergence and stability of the complex Frank-Kasper σ-phase. Our study starts with an investigation of the stability region of the σ phase for a generic model of B1AB2C terpolymers…
Uniaxial alignment of electrospun fibers can provide a useful approach to develop novel functional nanomaterials for applications in a wide variety of fields. In this study, a polypropylene- (PP-) coated spinneret and a metal spinneret were utilized to carry out the single-fluid electrospinning processes. A metal rod…
The activity and selectivity of methanol synthesis from syngas have been studied for decades from both experimental and theoretical aspects. In this work, CO hydrogenation to methanol on both Pd(211) and subsurface boron-modified Pd(211) surfaces is investigated based on density functional theory calculations. Methane…
Superparamagnetic Fe <sub>3</sub> O <sub>4</sub> nanocrystals anchored on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were fabricated using co-precipitating technique which nicely integrates the magnetic and dielectric components into a synergistic microwave absorber.
Despite the great progress in the field of cancer research, complete remission of cancer patients is a rarely seen outcome in clinics. The failure of a plethora of promising anticancer drugs is mostly due to the insurgence of multidrug resistance (MDR) phenomena with various factors, both physio-pathological and cellu…
Phosphonates are an important class of mineral scale inhibitors used for oilfield scale control. By injecting the phosphonate into an oilfield reservoir, calcium-phosphonate precipitate will form and subsequently release the phosphonate into produced water for scale control. In this study, a systematic procedure is de…
The electronic and optical properties of silicene/g-ZnS heterobilayers were systematically investigated by using density functional theory calculations.
A new ‘turn-ON’ fluorescent probe, pyrene appended thymine acetamide ( <bold>PTA</bold> ), with high sensitivity and selectivity for the detection of uric acid ( <bold>UA</bold> ) was developed and first time imaging of uric acid in living cells in water was achieved.
A facile and green method has been demonstrated to synthesize ultrasmall tungsten oxide quantum dots (WOx QDs). The water-soluble WOx QDs present high luminescence stability, strong peroxidase-like activity, and excellent electrochemiluminescence properties. This work provides an eco-friendly strategy to prepare multi…
Since its invention more than six decades ago, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has evolved as an inevitable part of chemical as well as structural analysis of small molecules, polymers, biomaterials and hybrid materials. In the solution state, due to the increased viscosity of complex viscoelastic fluids…
Mesoporous silica SBA-15 was prepared and functionalized by (3-glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane in order to bind 2-aminothiazole and aminopropyl-triazole ligands.
Gas phase Prins condensation of isobutene with formaldehyde has been studied over different Keggin-type heteropolyacids supported on amorphous silica.
In this work, a facile approach of covalent layer-by-layer assembly was applied to fabricate a bilayer nanofilm which renders roughened copper foam superhydrophobic with robust performances.
How can a change in molecular structure affect the relative stability and structural properties of the twist-bend nematic phase (NTB)? Here we extend the mean-field model(1) (C. Greco, G. R. Luckhurst and A. Ferrarini, Soft Matter, 2014, 10, 9318) for bent-shaped achiral molecules, to study the influence of arm molecu…
We describe a facile and controllable asymmetrical/symmetrical coating strategy for the preparation of various novel periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO) nanostructures, including Au&PMO Janus, Au@PMO yolk-shell and Au@PMO/mSiO2 yolk-double shell nanoparticles, by using Au@SiO2 nanoparticles as seeds. During this pr…
Graphene quantum dot (GQD) embedded Amoc ( <italic>N</italic> -anthracenemethyloxycarbonyl) amino acid based hydrogels show self-healing properties and emit blue light.
The presence of an excitonic element in close proximity of a plasmonic nanostructure, under certain conditions, may lead to a nonradiative resonant energy transfer known as Exciton Plasmon Resonant Energy Transfer (EPRET) process. The exciton-plasmon coupling and dynamics have been intensely studied in the last decade…
Exposure of nanoparticles (NPs) to biological fluids (e.g., plasma, interstitial fluid, and cytoplasm) leads to the absorption of proteins on the NP surface, forming a protein corona (PC) that drastically influences the NP physicochemical properties. Herein, we highlight the emerging applications of PC towards its use…
