Abstract The composites of nanoporous carbon and graphene were prepared by carbonization of mixed sulfonate‐based polymers and graphite oxide. Addition of the graphene phase modified the texture and chemistry of the final products. The materials show high electrochemical capacity in spite of the relatively low surface…

The phase-field crystal model (PFC model) resolves systems on atomic length scales and diffusive time scales and lies in between standard phase-field modeling and atomistic methods. More recently a hyperbolic or modified PFC model was introduced to describe fast (propagative) and slow (diffusive) dynamics. We present…

Design of sustainable bioplastics can be achieved by preparing composites from renewable materials like microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) fibre and biopolymer such as polylactic acid (PLA). The key driving factor that affects their performance is the quality of dispersion of MCC in the PLA matrix. In this study, surfac…

We have determined effective mass parameters for ultrapure diamond by time-resolved cyclotron resonance of optically excited carriers. The transverse and longitudinal electron masses are found to be ${m}_{t}/{m}_{0}=0.280(2)$ and ${m}_{l}/{m}_{0}=1.56(2)$, where ${m}_{0}$ is the free-electron mass. The Luttinger param…

Sulfide anions are generated not only as a byproduct from industrial processes but also in biosystems. Hence, robust fluorescent sensors for detecting sulfide anions which are fast-responding, water soluble and biocompatible are highly desirable. Herein, we report a carbon-dot-based fluorescent sensor, which features…

Influenza A viruses (IAVs) cause recurrent epidemics in humans, with serious threat of lethal worldwide pandemics. The occurrence of antiviral-resistant virus strains and the emergence of highly pathogenic influenza viruses have triggered an urgent need to develop new anti-IAV treatments. One compound found to inhibit…

Aqueous suspensions of microfibrillated cellulose obtained by a high pressure homogenization process were freeze-dried after solvent exchange into tert-butanol. The resulting aerogels, which displayed a remarkable open morphology with a surface area reaching 100 m(2)/g, were subjected to a gas-phase esterification wit…

It is well established that aqueous solutions of methylcellulose (MC) can form hydrogels on heating, with the rheological gel point closely correlated to the appearance of optical turbidity. However, the detailed gelation mechanism and the resulting gel structure remain poorly understood. Herein the fibrillar structur…
