Novel π-extended coumarin-based chromophores were designed with two-photon absorption (TPA) character in the near-IR region. Caged benzoates with a TP-responsive chromophore were synthesized, and their TP-uncaging reactions were conducted under near-IR light. The 6,7-dimethoxy-substituted derivative had a high TPA cro…
Peanut hull residues were considered for the manufacturing of particleboards. Various concentrations of two types of adhesive—polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) and urea-formaldehyde (UF)—were separately combined with four types of peanut hull particles (fine, mixed, coarse particles, and peanut hull powder)…
Abstract Nowadays, more and more people are keen on investing in their own personal fitness. In this paper, a series of experiments were conducted to investigate the feasibility of using ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam for comfort fitting, with a special reference to shoes applications. Based on the experimental res…
A new copolymer of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) and 5-(2-ethylhexyl)-1,3-bis(9-methyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl)-5H-thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-4,6-dione (CzPDICz) was electrochemically synthesized using different monomer feed ratios. The resulting copolymer films were investigated in terms of their electrochemical and electro-o…
Uniaxial tension–unloading recovery, creep-recovery, and stress-controlled cyclic tests are first performed to investigate the recoverable viscoelasticity and irrecoverable viscoplasticity (including the uniaxial ratchetting) of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) polymer at room temperature. The results…
An experimental technique capable of determining the dynamic tensile (spall) strength of metals in the liquid state is described. Relying on this technique, spall data on samples of tin, lead, and zinc pre-heated to 20 K above their melting points were obtained. It is found that the spall strength of the metals is low…
In nature, numerous mechanisms have evolved by which organisms fabricate biological structures with an impressive array of physical characteristics. Some examples of metazoan biological materials include the highly elastic byssal threads by which bivalves attach themselves to rocks, biomineralized structures that form…
Unidirectional (UD) pre-pregs containing self-healing materials based on Diels–Alder reaction bis-maleimide (BMI) polymers were successfully incorporated on the mid-plane of UD carbon fibre reinforced polymers. The fracture toughness of these composites and the introduced healing capability were measured under mode I…
Abstract The fundamental transmittance and electrical properties of undoped and Li-doped NiO thin films deposited by conventional RF sputtering without intentional heating were evaluated. Both the transmittance and resistivity of undoped and Li-doped NiO decreased with increasing O 2 fraction in the sputtering gas, f…
Continuous fluorescence imaging of intracellular ions in various spectral ranges is important for biological studies. In this paper, fluorescent calcium-selective nanospheres, including calix[4]arene-functionalized bodipy (CBDP) or 9-(diethylamino)-5-[(2-octyldecyl)imino]benzo[a]phenoxazine (ETH 5350) as the chromoion…
We monolithically fabricated vertical cavity lasers with densely packed colloidal quantum dot films and demonstrated single-mode lasing operation using nanosecond optical excitation. Due to the accurate spectral and spatial alignment of the cavity optical modes and the quantum dot gains, in addition to the high qualit…
The aim of the investigations was to compare the microstructure, mechanical, and wear properties of Cr3C2-NiCr+Ni and Cr3C2-NiCr coatings deposited by HVOF technique (the high-velocity oxygen fuel spray process) on ductile cast iron. The effect of nickel particles added to the chromium carbide coating on mechanical an…
The effects of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) on the crystallization kinetics, competing formations of homocrystallites (HCs) and stereocomplexes (SCs), polymorphic crystalline structure, and HC-to-SC crystalline reorganization of the poly(l-lactic acid)/poly(d-lactic acid) (PLLA/PDLA) racemic mixture were investiga…
Inspired by biological systems, artificial self-healing materials are designed for repairing local damage caused by external factors. The rapidly expanding field of self-healing systems contains, among others, materials with well-defined surface properties. Undoubtedly, enhancing surface functionalisation, by applying…
Self-healing materials facilitate a design concept which includes damage management, where damage that is inflicted during operation can be healed autonomously. It has been shown that the M n +1 AX n phases Ti 3 AlC 2 , Ti 2 AlC and Cr 2 AlC exhibit such behaviour. Cracks are filled and hence healed by oxidation produ…
In the solution processing of oxide electronics, the structure of metal-organic precursors in solution and their effect on processability and on the final structure and properties of the oxide have rarely been studied. We have observed that hybrid clusters, having inorganic cores coordinated by organic ligands, are th…
Composite electrolytes including an oxide (Gd-doped ceria, 70, 80, and 90 vol%) and a eutectic mixture of alkaline carbonates (Na2CO3 and Li2CO3) were produced by joint milling and firing of all constituents. The microstructure of these composites was studied by scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray spe…
Atomic resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy combined with ab initio electronic calculations are used to determine the structure and properties of the Fe3O4(111)/SrTiO3(111) polar interface. The interfacial structure and chemical composition are shown to be atomical…
Recently, a new high-pressure semiconductor phase of Ca2C (space group Pnma) was successfully synthesized, it has a low-pressure metallic phase (space group C2/m). In this paper, a systematic investigation of the pressure-induced phase transition of Ca2C is studied on the basis of first-principles calculations. The ca…
Electronic relaxation dynamics and near-infrared emission of structurally precise Au 25 (SC 8 H 9 ) 18 0 MPCs were studied using energy-resolved and time-resolved magneto-photoluminescence (MPL) spectroscopy. Measurements were carried out at sample temperatures spanning the range of 4.5 to 20 K following 3.1 eV laser…
