Abstract Free radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) within the uniform channels of the mesoporous zeolite MCM‐41 proceeds at 100°C to give a high molecular weight polymer (PMMA). The formation of long‐living propagating polymer‐radicals is observed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The molecular…

Mechanistic modeling of protein adsorption has evolved to include increasingly detailed descriptions of protein structure in an effort to capture experimentally observed behavior. This has been especially true of electrostatically driven adsorption, for which colloidal models have been used frequently. These efforts h…

We report the existence of a reversible first-order phase transition of BeS from the zinc-blende structure, $B3,$ to the nickel-arsenide structure, $B8,$ at 51 GPa with a volume change of 11%. The NiAs phase remains stable up to at least 96 GPa. A second-order Birch equation describes the equation of state of the $B3$…

Vanadyl salen complexes bearing electron-withdrawing substituents have been prepared and characterized. Systematic substitutions on the ancillary ligand have allowed V(5+)/V(4+) reduction potentials to be tuned over a range of approximately 500 mV. The complexes are catalysts for the aerobic epoxidation of cyclohexene…

The interaction of hydrous cerium oxide with cationic surfactants under basic conditions is used for the first time in the preparation of CeO2 with enhanced textural and redox properties. The reduction of Ce4+ to Ce3+ is strongly augmented, especially in the low-temperature regime, resulting in a broadening of the win…

A polystyrene–polyisoprene (PS–PI) diblock copolymer (10,000–50,000 g/mol) and a matched PS&ndashPI–PS triblock (10,000–100,000–10,000 g/mol) were employed to study the effect of chain architecture on the rheological response of ordered block copolymer melts. Both samples adopt hexagonal microstructures with PS cylind…

Manganese ion-planted MCM-41 was prepared by a “template-ion exchange” method, in which the template ion in as-synthesized MCM-41 was exchanged for Mn2+ ion in an aqueous solution, and the resulting sample was calcined at 873 K. This method was accompanied with no collapse of mesoporous structure. The content of the m…
