Century natural fibers (Agave americana L.) have superior mechanical properties. For their usage as an effective reinforcement in biocomposites, they require surface modification. In the present study, these fibers were treated with 5% aq. NaOH solution for optimized 1-h period. The effect of alkali treatment on the m…
The chemical vapor deposition (CVD) fabrication of high-density three-dimension graphene macroscopic objects (3D-GMOs) with a relatively low porosity has not yet been realized, although they are desirable for applications in which high mechanical and electrical properties are required. Here, we explore a method to rap…
We consider single-layer arrays of electrically small lossy particles that completely absorb electromagnetic waves at normal incidence. Required conditions for electromagnetic properties of bi-anisotropic particles have been identified in the most general case of uniaxial reciprocal and nonreciprocal particles. We con…
Water suspended on chilled superhydrophobic surfaces exhibits delayed freezing; however, the interdrop growth of frost through subcooled condensate forming on the surface seems unavoidable in humid environments. It is therefore of great practical importance to determine whether facile defrosting is possible on superhy…
An artificial light-harvesting array, comprising 21 discrete chromophores arranged in a rational manner, has been synthesized and characterized fully. The design strategy follows a convergent approach that leads to a molecular-scale funnel, having an effective chromophore concentration of 0.6 M condensed into ca. 55 n…
We assessed the potential for children's exposure to bioavailable silver during the realistic use of selected nanotechnology-based consumer products (plush toy, fabric products, breast milk storage bags, sippy cups, cleaning products, humidifiers, and humidifier accessory). We measured the release of ionic and particu…
Bottom-up fabrication of complex 3D hollow superstructures from nonspherical building blocks (BBs) poses a significant challenge for scientists in materials chemistry and physics. Spherical colloidal silica or polystyrene particles are therefore often integrated as BBs for the preparation of an emerging class of mater…
By introducing the incorporation of polyaniline and fluorinated alkyl silane to the cotton fabric via a facile vapor phase deposition process, the fabric surface possessed superhydrophobicity with the water contact angle of 156° and superoleophilicity with the oil contact angle of 0°. The as-prepared fabric can be app…
EXPO2013 , the heir of EXPO2009 , has been enriched by a variety of new algorithms and graphical tools aiming at strengthening the individual steps of the powder structure solution pathway. Particular attention has been addressed to the procedures devoted to improving structural models provided by direct methods in ab…
In this work, thick textured carbon film (800nm) was grown on Si substrate using filtered cathode vacuum arc technique. Multi-cycle of deposition was performed to avoid the high film stress issue hence improve the film adhesion. Optical microscope was used for delamination check, the bonding composition was investigat…
We demonstrate a bendable single substrate polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal (PSBP LC) display using bar coater technique. Blue phase temperature range and electro-optical properties of a single glass or a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate PSBP LC cells were investigated. Moreover, the effect of co…
Ultrafast switchable wide angle negative refraction in a novel dual-frequency liquid crystal mixture is demonstrated experimentally. Laterally fluorinated isothiocyanato phenyl-tolane liquid crystal compound is doped into Merck MLC-2048 to acquire the high birefringence dual-frequency liquid crystal. The maximum negat…
The interaction between synthetic polymers and proteins at interfaces is relevant to basic science as well as a wide range of applications in biotechnology and medicine. One particularly common and important interface is the air-water interface (AWI). Due to the special energetics and dynamics of molecules at the AWI,…
In many bacteria, heat shock locus V (HslV) functions as a protease, which is activated by heat shock locus U (HslU). The primary sequence and structure of HslV are well conserved with those of the β-subunit of the 20 S proteasome core particle in eukaryotes. To date, the HslVU complex has only been characterized in t…
The effect of strain rate is widely recognized as an essential factor that influences the mechanical properties of polymer matrix composites. Despite its importance, no previous work has been reported on the high‐strain rate behavior of polypropylene/zinc oxide nanocomposites. Based on this, static and dynamic compres…
Lead‐free piezoelectric potassium niobate ( KNbO 3 ) system was synthesized by conventional solid‐state ceramic route. Rietveld analysis of X‐ray diffraction data of this system revealed that the sample crystallized in pure orthorhombic perovskite phase at room temperature. SEM micrograph of this system depicted prese…
With NaOH as precipitation agent and NiSO 4 · 6H 2 O as raw material, Ni(OH) 2 particles were synthesized by infinite dilute method and sintered at 300°C for NiO. The synthesized NiO particles with a structure of cubic crystalline phase are well dispersed and ball-flower like with a diameter of 500 nm. The electrochem…
Abstract The application of the Jiles–Atherton (J–A) hysteresis model for numerical modeling of measured quasistatic hysteresis loops of non‐oriented soft magnetic material is investigated. The J–A model used assumes its parameters are dependent on actual effective magnetic field strength. This is carried out by using…
Pulsed electrical discharges in distilled water were used for the surface modifications of the aromatic polyimides. Optical emission spectroscopy has shown the formation of excited species in the plasma due to water dissociation and ionization. The reactive species have induced surface modifications of the polymer fil…
