The aim of this paper was to improve the fire retardancy of beech wood by graphene. Six fire properties, namely time to onset of ignition, time to onset of glowing, back-darkening time, back-holing time, burnt area and weight loss were measured using a newly developed apparatus with piloted ignition. A set of specimen…
The vacuum discharge along the dielectric surface, also called surface flashover, brings significant damages to the vacuum‐solid insulation system. Here the authors implement shape‐flexible, complex surface groove microstructures on the dielectric to mitigate the initiation of vacuum flashover. A particle‐in‐cell simu…
This review paper investigated the durability and corrosion of materials used in the construction of agricultural buildings. Even though concrete and metal were the materials of choice in the construction of farm structures, they are susceptible to corrosion and environmental degradation. Acid attacks result in the ox…
The synthesis of thiophene-pyrrole hybrid polymers has become of increased interest due to their potential in a wide range of applications, from optoelectronics to biodevices. While the extended application of these materials in optoelectronics or photovoltaics has been previously addressed, a comprehensive account on…
The first theory of strain-induced crystallization in regular elastomers was laid out some 70 years ago by Flory. He identified the driving mechanism that concurs to the stabilization of the crystalline phase under stretching as the relaxation of the remaining amorphous phase because of the growth of oriented crystall…
Ethylene bridged azobenzenes are novel, promising molecular switches that are thermodynamically more stable in the ( Z ) than in the ( E ) configuration, contrary to the linear azobenzene. However, their previous synthetic routes were often not general, and yields were poorly reproducible, and sometimes very low. Here…
In this study, we fabricated poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) microcellular foams featuring tunable cellular structures and porosity, through adjusting the supercritical CO2 foaming conditions. Experimental testing and finite element model (FEM) simulations were conducted to systematically elucidate the influence of…
The study focuses on the development of polyoxymethylene (POM)/poly(lactic acid) (PLA) blends with increased impact and thermal resistance. The study was conducted in two phases; in the first part, a series of unmodified blends with PLA content of 25, 50, and 75 wt.% was prepared, while the second part focused on the…
An organic–inorganic hydrophobic mesoporous silica has been successfully prepared by a co-condensation method with tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES) as mixed precursors under acidic condition. The synthesized mesoporous silica has been characterized by small-angle X-ray diffraction, transmission…
Mechanoresponsive polymers with intense red emission are highly desirable in view of the strong penetrability and high resolution of red luminescence. Herein we introduce the sensitized luminescence of rare-earth Eu(III) complexes into the mechanochemiluminescence from polymeric dioxetane in a covalent way. By control…
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are intrinsically piezoelectric within the plane of their atoms, but out-of-plane piezoelectric response should not occur due to the symmetry of the crystal structure. Recently, however, MoS2 was shown to exhibit out-of-plane electromechanical coupling consistent with…
× improvement in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) efficiency compared to traditional resonant structures such as bowtie antennas. TO inverse design leads to surprising structures very different from conventional designs, which simultaneously optimize focusing of the incident wave and emission from the Raman di…
effect) and thus become increasingly interesting for drag reduction and other 'bioinspired' applications. However, another feature of superhydrophobic surfaces, i.e. the adsorption (not absorption) and subsequent superficial transportation and desorption capability for oil, has been neglected. Intense research is curr…
Purpose To achieve fast whole‐brain chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) imaging with negligible susceptibility artifact. Methods An optimized turbo spin echo readout module, also known as sampling perfection with application optimized contrasts by using different flip angle evolutions (SPACE), was deployed in…
Elucidation of the mutual influence of composition and architecture of polymer canopies on the assembly and mechanical properties of brush particle-based materials holds the promise of advancing the understanding of the governing parameters controlling interactions in hybrid materials and the development of novel func…
Abstract Unlike MoS 2 ultra-thin films, where solution-based single source precursor synthesis for electronic applications has been widely studied, growing uniform and large area few-layer WS 2 films using this approach has been more challenging. Here, we report a method for growth of few-layer WS 2 that results in co…
Summary In this study, the cellulose nanoparticles (CNP) isolated from potato peel were used for reinforcement of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)‐based active packaging film. The above film was used to pack the raw prawns (Penaeus monodon) at −20 °C, and the colour change, protein content, TVB‐N, TMA and microbial analysis we…
Ovarian cancer is a highly lethal disease, mainly due to chemoresistance. Our previous studies on metabolic remodeling in ovarian cancer have supported that the reliance on glutathione (GSH) bioavailability is a main adaptive metabolic mechanism, also accounting for chemoresistance to conventional therapy based on pla…
Abstract Direct electrical probing of molecular materials is often impaired by their insulating nature. Here, graphene is interfaced with single crystals of a molecular spin crossover complex, [Fe(bapbpy)(NCS)2], to electrically detect phase transitions in the molecular crystal through the variation of graphene resist…
Abstract Manipulating the valley degree of freedom as an information carrier has been a focused topic for both fundamental and applied research. Here, using first-principles calculations, we report the identification of monolayer CrX2 (X = S, Se) as a novel two-dimensional valleytronic crystal. It shows large valley s…
