Among the composite manufacturing methods, injection molding has higher time efficiency and improved processability. The production of composites via injection molding requires a pre-process to mix and pelletize the matrix polymer and reinforcement material. Herein, we studied the effect of extrusion process condition…

Polygalacturonase (EC. 3.2.1.15) is an enzyme that hydrolyzes the alpha-1,4 glycosidic bonds between galacturonic acid. In this study, an alkaline polygalacturonase producer Bacillus paralicheniformis CBS32 was isolated from kimchi (conventional Korean fermented food). The 16S rRNA sequence analysis of the isolated st…

We demonstrate a molecular design strategy to enhance the efficiency of phthalocyanine (Pc)-based hole-transporting materials (HTMs) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, two titanyl phthalocyanine (TiOPc) derivatives are designed and applied as dopant-free HTMs in planar n-i-p-structured PSCs. The newly developed…

A rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most common knee ligament injury. Current applied reconstruction methods have limitations in terms of graft availability and mechanical properties. A new approach could be the use of a tissue engineering construct that temporarily reflects the mechanical propert…

Abstract Addition of Zn to a Cu matrix during Cu–Zn/Sn interdiffusion reactions at 400 °C leads to the formation of a solid ternary Cu–Zn–Sn phase, β -CuZn, at the outermost reaction layer next to the porous ε phase. The use of a brass matrix considerably suppresses void formation and promotes homogeneous outward Sn d…

We present a general, flexible framework for a constant-energy variant of the dissipative particle dynamics method that allows chemical reactions (DPD-RX). In our DPD-RX approach, reaction progress variables are assigned to each particle that monitor the time evolution of an extent-of-reaction associated with the pres…

Abstract The synthesis, structure, and spectroscopic characterization of the first transplutonium metal–organic framework (MOF) is described. The preparation and structure of Am‐GWMOF‐6, [Am2(C6H8O4)3(H2O)2][(C10H8N2)], is analogous to that of the isostructural trivalent lanthanide‐only containing material GWMOF‐6. Th…

Abstract Molten LiCl and related eutectic electrolytes are known to permit direct electrochemical reduction of N2 to N3− with high efficiency. It had been proposed that this could be coupled with H2 oxidation in an electrolytic cell to produce NH3 at ambient pressure. Here, this proposal is tested in a LiCl–KCl–Li3N c…

Abstract Polyoxometalates (POMs) are promising catalysts for the electrochemical hydrogen production from water owing to their high intrinsic catalytic activity and chemical tunability. However, poor electrical conductivity and easy detachment of the POMs from the electrode cause significant challenges under operating…

We demonstrate how to design various nonstandard types of Andreev-bound-state (ABS) dispersions, via a composite construction relying on Majorana bound states (MBSs). Here, the MBSs appear at the interface of a Josephson junction consisting of two topological superconductors (TSCs). Each TSC harbors multiple MBSs per…

The effect of an electric field on the coalescence of two water droplets suspended in an insulating oil (castor oil) in the non-coalescence regime is investigated. Unlike the immediate breakup of the bridge, as reported in earlier studies, e.g. Ristenpart et al. (Nature, vol. 461 (7262), 2009, pp. 377–380), the non-co…
