Selective hydrogenation of the C═O group of acrolein produces the chemically important intermediate propenol. Addition of the second metal indium to gold catalyst notably improves the selectivity to the desired ally alcohol. The role of indium was previously ascribed to block active sites on faces for the C═C hydrogen…

We report the resistivity of a series of nominally fluorine-doped ${\text{SmFeAsO}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\text{F}}_{x}$ polycrystalline superconductors in magnetic fields up to 60 T. For samples where $x<0.15$, the low-temperature resistive state is characterized by pronounced magnetoresistance including an upturn at…

In general, pressurized CO 2 is soluble in polymers (to a concentration determined by the pressure) and affects the polymer relaxation behavior. Focusing on segmental relaxation, this study conducted dielectric measurements for racemic dl -poly(lactic acid) (PLA) as well as polystyrene (PS) under carbon dioxide (CO 2…

A polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) fabricated by the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly of weak polyions of polyacrylic acid (PAA) and polyallylamine (PAH) was applied as a matrix for the in situ nucleation and growth of pure and Mn-doped ZnS nanocrystallites. The nucleation and growth is initiated by the adsorption a…

A new compound, Bi(3)Mn(3)O(11), with a KSbO(3)-type structure was prepared using a high-pressure technique. Its structural, chemical, and magnetic properties have been investigated. Bi(3)Mn(3)O(11) was shown to be a ferrimagnet with rather high T(C) despite the random distribution of manganese ions with different oxi…

Myelin figures are interfacial structures formed when certain surfactants swell in excess water. Here, I present data and model calculations suggesting the formation and growth of myelins is due to the fluid flow of surfactant, driven by the hydration gradient at the dry surfactant/water interface; a simple model base…

Single-phase layered Nb-substituted titanates, Na(2)Ti(3-x)Nb(x)O(7) (x = 0-0.06) and Cs(0.7)Ti(1.8-x)Nb(x)O(4) (x = 0-0.03), were for the first time synthesized by a novel sol-gel assisted solid state reaction (SASSR) route. Conventional solid state reactions as well as sol-gel synthesis did not succeed in producing…

The behaviors of 15 kinds of metal ions in the thiol-capped CdTe quantum dots (QDs)-H2O2 chemiluminescence (CL) reaction were investigated in detail. The results showed that Ag+, Cu2+ and Hg2+ could inhibit CdTe QDs and H2O2 CL reaction. A novel CL method for the selective determination of Ag+, Cu2+ and Hg2+ was devel…

Nucleation in solution is a stochastic phenomenon and thus difficult to control. We present here an in situ investigation of the control of spatial and temporal localization on the nucleation event, using two approaches. We show how creating localized fields and fluxes and/or preventing convection lead to effective co…

Phase-field models provide a way to model fluid interfaces as having finite thickness; the interface between two immiscible fluids is treated as a thin mixing layer across which physical properties vary steeply but continuously. One of the main challenges of this approach is in resolving the sharp gradients at the int…
