Single crystals of sulphamic acid of 11 × 7 × 3 mm 3 dimension were successfully grown by slow evaporation technique. The crystal structure of grown crystals was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The presence of functional groups in the crystal lattice has been qualitatively determined by FT-IR a…
This article deals with the development of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/organoclay nanocomposites by solvent blending method. The synthesised PMMA nanocomposites with various content of organoclay (3–7 wt%) were characterised by X–ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier–transform in…
Nanoparticle network in dispersed droplets of polymer blends retards the shape relaxation of droplets by inhibiting molecular movement.
Hexagonal Ba-ferrites are widely suggested as materials for small antennas. In this paper, the sintering behavior and magneto-electric properties of <TEX>$Ba_3Co_{2-2x}Mn_{2x}Fe_{24}O_{41}$</TEX> (<TEX>$0.1{\leq}x{\leq}0.5$</TEX>) ceramics were investigated for small antenna application. All samples of <TEX>$Ba_3Co_{2…
In this work, bundles of rutile TiO₂ nanoneedles/nanorods are hydrothermally grown on carbon nanofibers (CNFs), forming free-standing mats consisting of three dimensional hierarchical nanostructures (TiO₂-on-CNFs). Morphologies and structures of the TiO₂-on-CNFs are studied using a field-emission scanning electron mic…
We developed a highly reactive catalytic ring-closing ene reaction with chiral aluminum complexes. Kinetic resolutions of citronellal successfully afforded 68% ee of diastereoselective isopulegol and 62% ee of citronellal at 47% conversion with the BINOL-Al catalyst. l -Menthol was synthesized from citral with kinetic…
Organic-inorganic hybrids composed of polyfluoroalkyl azobenzene surfactant (abbreviated as C3F-Azo-C6H) and inorganic layered compounds are able to undergo reversible three-dimensional morphology changes such as interlayer space changes and nanosheet sliding in a giant scale due to reversible trans-cis isomerization…
A peptide was designed to generate a sub-nanometric template that guides the growth of fluorescent gold nanoclusters. The peptide was endorsed with nucleating moieties and a three-dimensional structure that arrests the growth of ultrasmall nanoparticles. The nanoclusters are not cytotoxic and can be found in the cytos…
The application of cobalt sepulchrate (sep) complexes as active and robust homogeneous catalysts is reported here for the first time, as well as the crystal structure of the [Co(sep)] <sub>2</sub> (SO <sub>4</sub> ) <sub>3</sub> ·10H <sub>2</sub> O compound.
The employment of an indeno-quinoxaline based oxime ligand in cobalt chemistry afforded a new family of polynuclear cobalt clusters.
Synthesis and characterisation of tailored mesostructured alumina as thin films and powders with a narrow pore size distribution.
Sequence control in supramolecular copolymers is limited by the selectivity of the associating monomer end groups. Here we introduce the use of monomers with aminopyrimidinone and aminohydroxynaphthyridine quadruple hydrogen bonding end groups, which both homodimerize, but form even stronger heterodimers. These featur…
Zn-doped SnO <sub>2</sub> photoanodes with enhanced charge collection efficiency and mobility as compared to pristine photoanodes when used in DSSC applications are explored.
We investigate the limiting electrical conductivity of BiFeO3 (BFO) nanofibers via first-principles modelling and experiments. Based on a semi-empirical approach, all transition metals are first screened for their suitability to form an acceptor in BFO. The resultant candidates (e.g., Ni, Cu and Ag) are further studie…
D-Spacing is the most significant topographic feature of type I collagen fibril, and it is important for our understanding of the structure and function in collagens. Traditionally, the D-spacing of type I collagen fibril was shown to have a singular value of 67 nm, but recent works indicated that the D-spacing values…
Hydroxyapatite (HA) can be coated on various materials surface and has the function of osteogenicity. Microporous silk scaffold has excellent biocompatibility. In this study, alternate soaking technology was used to coat HA on microporous silk scaffolds. However, the cell proliferation was found to decrease with the i…
A novel luminescent inorganic/organic hybrid nanosheet [Y2(1−x)Eu2x(OH)5(TTA)n]+ was successfully synthesized. The photoluminescence of the hybrid nanosheet was significantly different from that of the unmodified nanosheet. The main charge transfer band Eu–O of the nanosheet was replaced by the more efficient π–π* ele…
In this work four different iron oxide nanoparticles for the delivery of antitumoral drugs into cancer cells were synthesized and characterized.
cell-receptor mediated targeting functionality for endocytosis. Compared to plain silica nanoparticles, iron enriched ones are shown to be target-specific, a property that makes them potentially better vehicles for applications, such as drug delivery and tumor imaging, by making them more selective and thereby reducin…
The electrical conductivity of a film has a dramatic influence on the lifetime of photo-excited electrons. As a result, the electrical conductivity of an electrode plays an important role in the performance of a photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell. In this study, we demonstrated that the conductivity of a semiconductor Cu…
