The plasma generated from a gas mixture of NH3 plus O2 (NH3 + O2) has been used to impart unique chemical and biological characteristics to polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). PTFE treated with NH3 + O2 plasma was physiochemically distinct from surfaces treated with plasma of either NH3 or O2 alone, as determined by elect…

It is well-documented that solid particles can be effective stabilisers of emulsions, and that the type of the emulsion formed is related, inter alia, to the particle wettability. In general it is to be expected that the free energy change accompanying the formation of a solid-stabilised emulsion will be positive and…

The crude latex of Calotropis procera was evaluated for anthelmintic activity using adult earthworms. Both fresh as well as aqueous extracts of dried latex exhibited a dose-dependent inhibition of spontaneous motility (paralysis) and evoked responses to pin-prick. With higher doses (100mg/ml of aqueous extract of dry…

A pH-responsive, sterically-stabilised polystyrene latex is used as a particulate emulsifier for oil-in-water emulsions; demulsification occurs rapidly on lowering the solution pH and the original emulsion can be reformed on pH cycling.

A estrutura de cada polímero tem influência direta sobre a sua densidade e suas propriedades mecânicas. Ramificações longas, como as presentes no polietileno de baixa densidade, por exemplo, aumentam a resistência ao impacto, diminuem a densidade e facilitam o processamento, enquanto que as ramificações curtas, presen…

In this Perspective, some of the basic principles of ligand design will be described as they apply to the synthesis of metal complexes with liquid crystal properties. Liquid crystal properties of metal complexes are a delicate function of both ligand and metal and examples will be chosen to illustrate this statement.…

The mechanistic cause of enhancement of C3H8-SCR activity by addition of H2 over Ag/Al2O3 was investigated with in-situ FT-IR spectroscopy. Under a flow of NO + C3H8 + O2, nitrates were mainly formed on Ag/Al2O3. An addition of H2 into a C3H8-SCR atmosphere increased the concentration of surface acetate significantly,…

A one-pot procedure that allows the preparation of 5,10,15-triarylcorroles directly from the condensation of pyrrole and benzaldehydes, avoiding the concomitant formation of the corresponding tetraarylporphyrins, has been developed. This approach is general and allows the preparation of sterically hindered corroles fr…
