Abstract It is still challenging to develop new and low‐cost proton‐conductive solid electrolytes using a simple synthetic procedure. Herein, a new proton‐conducting material was synthesized for the first time through a sol‐gel method by merging niobium oxyhydroxide with polyoxometalate (POM). NbO 2 (OH)‐PW 12 exhibit…

Niobium pentoxide (Nb 2 O 5 ), also known as niobia, has been applied in several areas among others in heterogeneous catalysis. This is due to both its high acidity (Brönsted acid and Lewis acid sites) and its Lewis acid sites tolerant to water. The structure and morphology of these sites present tunable quantity and…

PURPOSE: Sepantronium bromide (YM155) is a hydrophilic quaternary compound that cannot be administered orally due to its low oral bioavailability; it is furthermore rapidly eliminated via the kidneys. The current study aims at improving the pharmacokinetic profile of YM155 by its formulation in immunoliposomes that ca…

In this work, the effect of the addition of boron nitride (BN) fillers in a thiol-cycloaliphatic epoxy formulation has been investigated. Calorimetric studies put into evidence that the kinetics of the curing has been scarcely affected and that the addition of particles does not affect the final structure of the netwo…

Crystals of the heterocyclic radical naphtho-1,3,2-dithiazolyl NDTA display magnetic bistability with a well-defined hysteretic phase transition at T c ↓ = 128(2) K and T c ↑ = 188(2) K. The magnetic signature arises from a radical/dimer interconversion involving one of the two independent π-radicals in the P 1̅ unit…
