We study the dynamic behaviour of concentrated colloidal hard spheres using time resolved correlation, a light scattering technique that can detect the slow evolution of the dynamics in out-of-equilibrium systems. Surprisingly, equilibrium is reached a very long time after sample initialization, the non-stationary reg…

Abstract A novel method to produce fluorine‐containing polyacrylate emulsion is presented. It is prepared by the copolymerization of n ‐methyl methacrylate, n ‐styrene, n ‐butyl acrylate, and α‐methacrylic acid in the presence of swollen particles of PTFE. The structure and properties of the polymers are characterized…

The plateau modulus has been measured for a trio of amorphous poly(ethylene−propylene) copolymers where the mole fraction of ethylene ranged from 0.57 to 0.67. These materials were prepared by using a living catalyst system involving bis(salicylaldiminato)titanium activated by methylaluminoxane. This catalyst with pro…

We have investigated the system ZnSnSb 2 in the course of our attempts to modify thermoelectric Zn−Sb frameworks. ZnSnSb 2 is only accessible when employing Sn as reactive flux in the synthesis. The material shows an order−disorder transition in the temperature interval between 225 and 240 °C and decomposes peritectic…

In this paper we report electronic transport in nanostructured films of the rare-earth manganite La0.67Sr0.33MnO3. The films were grown by chemical solution deposition. The films show a resistivity peak in the temperature range of 250–265 K and have average grain size (∼50–60nm). The grain size can be controlled by po…

The photoluminescence properties of a periodically structured organic light-emitting diode are presented. Patterning is achieved using an original single-step autostructuration technique based on photoinduced effects in azo-polymer films. We show that single beam laser irradiation can lead to the induction of regular…

Abstract The synthesis and characterization of new aromatic homo‐ and copolyesters based on l‐arabinitol and xylitol are described. These polymers were obtained by polycondensation reaction of the 2,3,4‐tri‐ O ‐methyl‐l‐arabinitol or 2,3,4‐tri‐ O ‐methyl‐xylitol, or their mixtures with ethylene glycol, with terephthal…

The effects of dipolar interactions and molecular flexibility on the structure and phase behavior of bent-core molecular fluids are studied using Monte Carlo computer simulations. Some calculations of flexoelectric coefficients are also reported. The rigid cores of the model molecules consist of either five or seven s…

Using molecular dynamics simulations, we show that sheared solutions of cylindrical micelle-forming amphiphiles behave very differently under extreme confinement as compared to the bulk. When confined to ultrathin films, the self-assembled cylindrical micelles roll along the shearing direction and align parallel to ea…

We demonstrate irreversible blocking of ion channels using single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) functionalized with 2-aminoethylmethane thiosulfonate (MTSET). In contrast, as-produced and purified SWNTs exhibit reversible blocking, indicating that the MTSET molecule attached to SWNTs chemically interacts with the cyst…

We propose a method for direct calculation of an effective interface potential from computer simulation. The method allows us to locate the wetting transition, determine its order and calculate the concomitant contact angle of macroscopic drops. We illustrate the method by studying the wetting behaviour of a polymer m…
