Modeling of refining processes using metal-acid bifunctional catalysts involves an exponentially increasing number of species and reactions, which may rapidly exceed several thousands for complex industrial feedstocks. When building a model for such a process, a priori lumped kinetic models by chemical family do no lo…
Several features of the entropy change S related to the martensitic transformation (MT) in metamagnetic alloys are discussed. In these alloys a change in magnetic order is concomitant with the MT, as it occurs between ferromagnetic austenite and non-magnetic (weakly magnetic) martensite. In this case it has been show…
We report here an investigation that focuses on the organ distribution of metal complexes that are chelated by the amphipolar corrole whose macrocycle is decorated by two sulphonic acid head groups, which are emerging potential therapeutics against cancer (the cytotoxic Ga chelate) and diseases that are characterized…
Understanding and controlling the hierarchical self-assembly of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is vital for designing materials such as transparent conductors, chemical sensors, high-performance composites, and microelectronic interconnects. In particular, many applications require high-density CNT assemblies that cannot cur…
Three face-to-face biscobalt bisporphyrin dyads, including one incorporating a copper(II) ion inside the linker, were synthesized and characterized both spectroscopically and electrochemically in three non-aqueous solvents, dichloromethane, benzonitrile and pyridine. The electrocatalytic reduction of dioxygen with the…
The effect of initial orientation of samples on the magnetic properties and texture of ultrathin grain-oriented steel strips produced of them has been studied. In a number of cases, the samples with a larger initial deviation from the ideal (110)[001] orientation demonstrate a higher level of magnetic properties (if c…
Abstract In this paper, the structural and spectroscopic properties of rhodamine 3B (R3B) cations incorporated into titanate nanosheet (TNS)/decyltrimethylammonium (C10TMA) cation hybrid was investigated in the presence and absence of adsorbed water. Powder X-ray diffraction measurement under various relative humidity…
This short theoretical review deals with some essential ingredients for the understanding of the quantum Hall effect in graphene in comparison with the effect in conventional two-dimensional electron systems with a parabolic band dispersion. The main difference between the two systems stems from the “ultra-relativisti…
During the last decade, nanotechnology has been applied to medicine with the aim of providing improvements in diagnosis and therapy, resulting in a new discipline often referred to as nanomedicine....
The effect of 2-mercaptobenzimidazole (inh. I) and 2-mercapto-5-methylbenzimidazole (inh. II) on the corrosion of mild steel in 1M solutions of sulphuric acid has been investigated in relation to the concentration of the inhibitor as well as temperature by various monitoring corrosion techniques. The results obtained…
Effect of diffusion annealing on the formation of dysprosium-saturated grain boundaries in sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets has been studied. As a source of diffusion, we used powders of metallic dysprosium, DyCu, DyGa, and Dy3Co alloys and DyH x hydride. Plates ∼1 mm thick made of sintered magnets were molded into powders wi…
We fabricated, in a polymer matrix, liquid crystal (LC) nanosized droplets with a correlation length ξ of about 140 nm, which appear as an optically isotropic film. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and light scattering measurements gave unambiguous evidences of an existence of nematic LC (NLC) order and fluctua…
Multifunctional ferromagnetic shape memory Heusler alloys are frequently characterized by structural modulation in martensitic phases. In particular, modulated martensitic phases, showing the higher magnetic field induced strain (MFIS) performance, are the most promising candidates for technological applications. Depe…
This paper presents a proof of concept study on an innovative pneumatic mini-valve. The novelty aspects lie in the creation of an actuation device based on wires formed from the shape memory alloy (SMA) Ni-Ti and in the shape of the body of valve, with its very limited dimensions being made possible by its constructio…
The growth orientation dependence of strain relaxation and the dielectric properties were investigated for (001)- and (111)-epitaxial (Ba,Sr)TiO3 films. The films were deposited on SrRuO3/SrTiO3 and SrTiO3 substrates using rf magnetron sputtering. The residual strain was found to be remarkably different between the tw…
N-(2-Hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) copolymer—drug conjugates bearing the antiinflammatory and anti-proliferative drug dexamethasone (DEX) and the anti-cancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) bound to either the polymer carrier separately or in combination, were synthesized. Both the in vitro and in vivo anti-cancer activi…
A novel approach has been followed for synthesizing vertically aligned ZnO nanorods (ZONRs) on indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates for photovoltaic applications. The fabricated ZONR arrays have been used to construct bulk heterojunction photovoltaic devices together with pristine poly-(3-hexylthiophene) (P3…
The most commonly used titanium (Ti)-based alloy for biological applications is Ti-6Al-4V, but some studies associate the vanadium (V) with the cytotoxic effects and adverse reactions in tissues, while aluminum (Al) has been associated with neurological disorders. Ti-Nb alloys belong to a new class of Ti-based alloys…
Analytical models are developed for effective resistance of two dimensional resistor networks and applied to multi-layer graphene nanoribbon (GNR) interconnects. Improvement in effective resistance with additional GNR layers is estimated and optimal number of layers to minimize delay and Energy-delay-product (EDP) are…
The in-plane magnetic anisotropy of epitaxial La 0.7 Sr 0.3 MnO 3 (LSMO) films is studied at room temperature by the following three independent techniques: magnetooptical Kerr effect, ferromagnetic resonance at a frequency of 9.61 GHz, and recording of absorption spectra of electromagnetic radiation at a frequency of…
