The "tailor effect" of fluoride, exclusively as a terminal rather than a bridge, was applied successfully to design low-dimensional structures in the system of transition metal germanophosphates for the first time. Two series of new compounds with low-dimensional structures are reported herein. K[M(II)Ge(OH)2(H0.5PO4)…

The iron based hardfacing alloys were produced using slag free self-shielded flux cored wires with varying niobium contents. The results show that NbC acted as the nucleus of primary M 7 (C, B) 3 (M = Cr, Fe mainly) carbides and decreased the amount of M 7 (C,B) 3 carbides when niobium was added into the alloys. When…

The LytB/IspH protein catalyzes the last step of the methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway which is used for the biosynthesis of essential terpenoids in most pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, the MEP pathway is a target for the development of new antimicrobial agents as it is essential for microorganisms, yet absent…

The hollow core of a carbon nanotube (CNT) provides a unique opportunity to explore the physics, chemistry, biology, and metallurgy of different materials confined in such nanospace. Here, we investigate the nonequilibrium metallurgical processes taking place inside CNTs by in situ transmission electron microscopy usi…

Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials receive a lot of attention because of their outstanding intrinsic properties and wide applications. In this work, the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of nickel hydroxides (Ni(OH)2) and nitrides XN (X = B, Al, and Ga) heterostructures are studied by first-principles…

The influence of the micro topology on the solid/water wetting and adhesion behaviors is studied in this work. By simply tailoring the morphology, superhydrophobicity can be achieved on a weak hydrophobic surface. And the further fine‐tuning of the surficial geometry realizes the conversion of superhydrophobic states,…

ABSTRACT Graphene/epoxy nanocomposite coatings were formulated by applying different dispersion and preparation methods to determine whether the coatings might be a potential gas barrier material for irradiated graphite waste which is known to release radioactive gases like tritium ( 3 H 2 ). Helium was used as a subs…

Abstract An integrated experimental and computational investigation reveals that surface lattice oxygen of copper oxide (CuO) nanoleaves activates the formyl CH bond in glucose and incorporates itself into the glucose molecule to oxidize it to gluconic acid. The reduced CuO catalyst regains its structure, morphology,…

Abstract Ultrastable foams are made very simply by adding salt (NaCl or KCl) to sodium dodecyl sulfate. The addition of high concentrations of salt leads to the precipitation of the surfactant on the bubble surfaces and as crystals in the interstices between the bubbles. As a consequence, the ageing of the foams is st…
