Nonlinear optical (NLO) materials play a major role in the field of photonics including optical information processing, sensor protector applications, data storage etc. Some organic compounds exhibit large NLO response, in many cases, orders of magnitude larger than widely known inorganic materials. The importance of…
The influence of N and O functionalization of CNT on the morphology of supported Pd-PVA nanoparticles is studied with respect to the catalytic activity in the liquid phase oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde. The impact of specific N and O sites on the carbon surface induced by the high temperature N-functiona…
This work presents the development of a facile ligand-assisted hydrothermal reaction for the preparation of NIR-activated Fe(3)O(4) nanostructures that can directly upgrade the iron oxide with MR contrast ability to be a MRI/photothermal theranostic agent.
Contrary to the notion that ‘oil and water do not mix’, many oils possess a residual diffusive mobility through water, causing the drop sizes in oil-in-water emulsions to slowly evolve with time. Liquid interfaces are therefore typically stabilized with polymeric or particulate emulsifiers. Upon adsorption, these may…
The hydrosilylation reaction is a dominant curing method for the light-emitting diode (LED) silicone encapsulant, which requires characteristics of high transparency, high refractive index, and thermal stability against the LED junction temperature. In this research, we synthesized a hydrogen containing oligosiloxane…
The surface energy and damping properties of graphene oxide (G–O)/polymer composites were reported for the first time. G–O/ethylene-propylene-diene rubber (EPDM)/petroleum resin (PR) composites were prepared by the combination of solution-blending and two-roll mill mixing. SEM results demonstrate that G–O nanosheets w…
This Perspective highlights an emerging area of metal-organic chromophore science related to the photochemistry and photophysics of coordination compounds and organometallic structures covalently tethered to rylene (naphthalene-cored) imide and diimide scaffolds. This combination of molecules renders highly colourful…
In this work, we reported on the preparation and skin benefits of L-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (VC-2-p)-loaded silk fibroin (SF) nanofibrous matrices for the first time. The matrices was fabricated using a facile eco-friendly electrospinning processing. With a post treatment of 75 v/v% ethanol vapor, the structure of t…
Structured biofoams have been prepared from the readily available renewable biopolymer xylan by employing an ice-templating technique, where the pore morphology of the material can be controlled by the solidification conditions and the molecular structure of the polysaccharide. Furthermore, reinforcement of these biod…
An Rh(4)Ni alloy nanocatalyst exhibits highly-efficient performance in dehydrogenation of aqueous hydrazine borane. The hydrogen selectivity reaches almost 100%. More interestingly, catalyzed by the Rh(4)Ni nanocatalyst, the dehydrogenation of aqueous hydrazine borane is not simply divided into two steps.
A series of surfaces with the similar morphology but different surface free energy were fabricated to achieve surfaces with distinct condensation modes. It was found that the freezing of condensed water formed via filmwise condensation occurred much more quickly and at a higher temperature than that of condensed water…
A mixture of aniline and a silver salt in ionic liquid has afforded a composite of PANI, in its more conducting form, and silver nanoparticles through a single-step direct reaction, without addition of any acid species or template. An ionic liquid acted as the solvent and template for the nanostructured material. The…
The Au(144)(SR)(60) nanocluster has been a subject of structural conjecture since its initial description over a decade ago as a 29 kDa compound, yet a decisive empirical structure is elusive. Herein we show that (1)H NMR spectroscopy can provide a detailed view of ligand-layer equivalence for thiolate protected gold…
This paper presents investigations on the effect of three different stages of fiber maturity (unripe, ripe and dried) on the physical, morphological and mechanical properties of betel nut husk (Areca catechu) (BNH). Density analysis, optical observation, moisture content and water absorption study were carried out to…
Very recent experimental and theoretical work has sought to find out whether or not complex arrangements of dipoles (such as flux-closure, vortex or skyrmion patterns) exist in ferroelectrics. While there is undoubtedly still considerable work to be done, enough insight has now been gained to warrant a brief discussio…
A symmetrical 3D chrysanthemum-like WO3·0.33H2O hierarchitecture has been prepared via a facile hydrothermal approach. A growth mechanism has been proposed for the hierarchitecture. With preferable electrochemical properties, WO3·0.33H2O displays potential application in lithium ion batteries.
Poly(L-lactide) electrospun mats have been produced with random and aligned fiber orientation and degrees of crystallinity from 0 up to nearly 50%. These two factors, fiber alignment and degree of crystallinity, strongly affect the hydrophobicity of the samples, this being larger for the aligned fiber mats and for the…
Building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) systems may represent a powerful and versatile tool for achieving the ever increasing demand for zero energy and zero emission buildings of the near future, offering an aesthetical, economical and technical solution to integrate solar cells producing electricity within the clima…
Controllable production of graphene by simultaneously exfoliating and reducing graphite oxide (GO) under dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma with various working gases, including H2 (reducing), Ar (inert) and CO2 (oxidizing), has been investigated. The deoxygenation level of GO is related to the type of working…
Carbon nanodots (CDs) were successfully prepared via a one-pot synthesis using microwave-assisted ionic liquid (MAIL) method. Moreover, a novel function of CDs as peroxidase mimetic compounds for azo dyes degradation was introduced.
