The controlled ring-opening polymerisation (ROP) of an ATRP initiator-containing lactone, γ-BMPCL, and its copolymerisation with ε-caprolactone is reported. One resulting copolymer was successfully used as a substrate for surface initiated ATRP to produce surface-grafted poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) brush…

Pd-Mg-Pd thin films with variable thickness of Mg layers were prepared. Their optical and electrical changes in both gasochromic and chemochromic processes were compared to investigate the kinetics of Mg-based thin films at room temperature. Hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of Pd-Mg-Pd thin films were stron…

During a dealloying process, reactive components in an alloy are selectively dissolved, leaving behind a bi-continuous porous structure composed of the remaining more noble constituents. This morphology has attracted attention in a variety of applications such as catalysis, actuation and sensing. Here, we show that si…

The ellestadite apatites Ca10[(SiO4)x(PO4)6-2x(SO4)x]Cl2 were studied by powder X-ray and neutron diffraction to establish baseline crystallographic data. These synthetic materials, unlike mineral specimens that are well equilibrated, show no Si/P/S ordering and conform to P63/m symmetry. Phosphate-rich ellestadites w…

The influence of the basal length of Co(OH) <sub>2</sub> on supercapacitor performance was examined in detail by adding simple urea molecules during deposition. It was observed that the specific capacitance of Co(OH) <sub>2</sub> could be tuned from 700 to 1200 F g <sup>−1</sup> . This high specific capacitance was at…

Cu addition to the base alloy reduces the total amount of deleterious phases such as chromium nitride and sigma and chi phases. In particular, Cu addition to the base alloy results in pronounced suppression of the amount of sigma phase whereas it slightly facilitates the precipitation of chromium nitride and chi phase…

Self-assembly of amphiphiles is used as a tool for structuring carbonaceous materials in one and two dimensions. The dynamics of low-molecular weight amphiphiles are combined with the stability of their high-molecular weight analogues in order to control the self-assembly of these molecules. Two concepts for structuri…
