Although highly packed polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) are important for a wide array of applications, preparing them remains difficult because of the poor dispersion of NPs at high loading fractions. One method to successfully prepare PNCs with high loadings is through capillary rise infiltration, as previously shown b…

The hierarchical porous structures of vinyl polymers, such as polystyrene (PSt) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), were derived from morphologies of a biomineral through replication. The resultant PSt hierarchical structures showed enhanced adsorption properties of organic molecules as hydrophobic adsorbents in an…

We study the effect of dielectric constant of some poly(styrene)‐type polymer matrix on the percolation threshold in conductive polymer composites with carbon black (CB). We demonstrate that percolation threshold diminishes with an increment of the dielectric constant of polymer matrix. We chose polystyrene and other…

5-6 nm gold nanoparticles were prepared by hydrolytic decomposition of [NMe4][Au(CF3)2] and functionalized in situ with mono- and multivalent thiolated PEG ligands. Time-dependent changes of the nanoparticles were monitored in aqueous NaCl, NaBr, and NaI solutions by UV-Vis spectroscopy, TEM, and HRTEM. The purely ste…

We have designed and synthesized two porphyrin containing two-dimensional (2D) polymers based on the imine linkage. Both the 2D polymers are revealed to be 2D organic semiconductors with band gaps of around 1 eV.
