DNA and alkenyl pyrrole functionalized silicon surfaces allow for the formation of silicon/polypyrrole junctions. These junctions are spatially controlled by photolithography (see Figure) and selective photo‐assisted electro‐oxidation of pyrrole. This process shows promise for use in the development of molecular‐based…

Structure self-assembling in the late stage spinodal decomposition of a polymer blend at its critical composition has been explored by laser-scanning confocal microscopy with particular emphasis on the effects of confinement (dimensionality) and preferential wetting of solid surface by one of the constituent polymers.…

Polymers with metallo backbones and pendant alkoxy groups (see Figure) are intercalated into a conducting polymer system of polyaniline–camphor sulfonic acid (PANI–CSA). The use of properly designed self‐assembled, layered metallic backbones, which are compatible with anions and Lewis bases of the doped PANI, is shown…

Abstract Environmental stress crazing or cracking (ESC), a long studied phenomenon, is the brittle failure of glassy thermoplastics, which are normally ductile, under the synergistic action of stress and certain surface active agents. This work involves a study of a polycarbonate—oleic acid system under two novel in‐d…

Abstract The reaction enthalpy and reaction heat capacity of three aromatic epoxy–amine systems have been determined with modulated temperature diffential scanning calorimetry (MTDSC), mostly in quasi‐isothermal conditions, over a wide temperature range (33–140 °C) and for different mixture compositions. The reaction…

Abstract Online Raman spectra, obtained at different points along the spin line during pilot‐scale nonisothermal melt spinning of high density polyethylene (HDPE) fibers, are presented for the first time. The fraction of the crystalline phase corresponding to each spectrum was determined from the normalized integrated…

A bifunctional capping ligand is used to obtain pyrrol‐functionalized monodispersed nanocrystalline TiO 2 (anatase) particles in a single step. The pyrrole functionalities in the shell are then (electro)chemically polymerized to create a polypyrrole (PPy)/TiO 2 hybrid nanocomposite film (see Figure). Further electroni…

Abstract Dendronization has previously been suggested as a means of controlling the level of intermolecular interactions in macromolecular and polymeric compounds. We therefore studied the spectral relaxation dynamics of dendronized and non‐dendronized polyfluorenes at different temperatures. Dendronization strongly a…

We have applied the augmented plane-wave plus local-orbitals method to investigate the charge density of ${\mathrm{Cu}}_{2}\mathrm{O}$ by means of Bader's topological analysis and electric-field gradients (EFGs). It is rather clear that a simple ${\mathrm{Cu}}^{+}\ensuremath{-}{\mathrm{O}}^{2\ensuremath{-}}$ model is…
