Pure quaternary tetraalkylammonium chlorides with one long alkyl chain dissolved in various organic solvents constitute a new class of cellulose solvents. The electrolytes are prepared in high yields and purity by Menshutkin quaternization, an inexpensive and easy synthesis route. The pure molten tetraalkylammonium ch…
Abstract Mesoporous [Al]MCM‐41 materials with n Si / n Al ratios of 15 to 50 suitable for the direct catalytic conversion of phenylglyoxal to ethylmandelate have been successfully synthesized at room temperature within 1 h. The surface areas and pore sizes of the obtained [Al]MCM‐41 materials are in the ranges of 1005…
Heterointerfaces between complex oxides have sparked considerable interest due to their fascinating physical properties and their offering of new possibilities for next-generation electronic devices. The key to realize practical applications is the control through external stimuli. In this study, we take the self-asse…
In order to explore new magnetic superhalogens, we have systematically investigated the structures, electrophilic properties, stabilities, magnetic properties, and fragmentation channels of neutral and anionic Fe(m)F(n) (m = 1, 2; n = 1-7) clusters using density functional theory. Our results show that a maximum of si…
Understanding the hydrolysis process of lignocellulosic substrates remains a challenge in the biotechnology field. We aimed here at investigating the effect of substrate architecture on the enzymatic degradation process using two different multilayered model films composed of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and xylogluc…
Using a simple bifunctional bridging linker, nanosized gold and titanium dioxide composites are prepared containing different Au loadings. Linker is synthesized to contain both catechol and thiol moieties to enable binding to the TiO 2 and Au surface respectively. Au/TiO 2 nanocomposites are prepared using simple synt…
Graphene is turning out to be the material that will effectively kick-start a new era for nanotechnology. The impressive properties of this atom-thick carbon layer are taking shape and form with early reports of successful applications based on it. The turning point for this material will be its low-cost mass producti…
In this letter, the electrical conductivity of disklike poly(methyl methacrylate)/carbon black composite samples was investigated prior to and after a shear process. Novel electrical conductivity maps of the samples as a function of the position were obtained. It was found that the electrical conductivity after angula…
Chiral photonics deals with enantioselective polarization control of linear and nonlinear optical functions and holds a great promise for a wide range of applications including optical signal processing, biosensing, and chiral bioimaging. Development of chiral materials with optical activity exceeding that of natural…
Cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide cationic (CTAB) surfactant was used as template for the synthesis of nanoclusters of ZnS composed of nanowires, by hydrothermal method. The structural and morphological studies were performed by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and high resolution transm…
Reductions of ( S )- and ( R )-carvone by wild-type Saccharomyces pastorianus Old Yellow Enzyme (OYE 1) and a systematic collection of Trp 116 variants revealed that, for ( S )-carvone, six Trp 116 mutants displayed inverted diastereoselectivity compared to the wild-type. For example, Ile and Val showed inverted stere…
Solid Oxide Electrolyzer Cell (SOEC) is a very good candidate technology for securing sustainable development for the future. It allows CO 2 to be recycled into usable fuels and has potential for hydrogen economy. In this work the authors focus on development of SOEC through modeling different aspects of the cell: fro…
In this article, polar columnar liquid crystals are reviewed. After introducing conventional ferroelectric liquid crystals such as smectic C* phases, bent-core smectic polar phases and chiral discotic phases, we stress that the polarisation direction existing in the xy plane (layer plane) is a common feature. Extensiv…
We show that the enhancement of the transverse magneto-optical Kerr effect of a smooth magnetic dielectric film covered by a noble metal grating, is strongly dependent on the precise geometry of this grating. Up till now this magnetoplasmonic enhancement was solely attributed to a nonreciprocal shift of the dispersion…
Gray cotton fabric shows hydrophobic characteristics due to presence of non-cellulosic impurities in outermost layers of cotton fiber. In the present study, atmospheric pressure plasma treatment for the removal of the non-cellulosic impurities from gray cotton fabric is investigated. Gray cotton fabric is treated with…
Hydrodynamic flow in a microfluidic (MF) device offers a high-throughput platform for the continuous and controllable self-assembly of amphiphiles. However, the role of hydrodynamics on the assembly of colloidal amphiphiles (CAMs) is still not well understood. This Article reports a systematic study of the assembly of…
The use of high-quality graphene as a local probe in combination with photo excitation helps to establish a deep mechanistic understanding of charge generation/quenching processes under lying the graphene/environment interface. By combining a non-destructive bottom-up assembly technique with sensitive graphene-based t…
We propose to use the non-electronic grade (nitrogen content 5 ppb < [N] < 5 ppm) single crystal (sc) chemical vapour deposited (CVD) diamond as a thin-membrane radiation detector. Using deep Ar/O2 plasma etching it is possible to produce self-supported few micrometres thick scCVD membranes of a size app…
We report a 3-D super-lyophobic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic channel patterned with an array of multi-scale surface texture as a novel microfluidic platform to mobilize naturally oxidized Galinstan. Galinstan is a liquid metal that has multiple advantages over mercury such as non-toxicity, higher thermal c…
Adhesion forces between nanoparticles strongly depend on the amount of adsorbed condensed water from ambient atmosphere. Liquid water forms bridges in the cavities separating the particles, giving rise to the so-called capillary forces which in most cases dominate the van der Waals and long-range electrostatic interac…
