The chemoenzymatic synthesis of block copolymers from a bifunctional initiator using enzymatic ring-opening polymerization (eROP) and ATRP in two consecutive steps was investigated. First, a polycaprolactone (PCL) macroinitiator was obtained via an enzymatic ring-opening polymerization initiated by the bifunctional in…
Abstract Polyurethane (PU) composites incorporating Cloisite 15A (15A) were prepared via melt compounding and solvent casting. The melt‐compounded composites had better dispersion and a smaller silicate stack size as a result of the higher shear forces associated with twin‐screw extrusion. The PU microphase separation…
Abstract The vital differences between the use of untreated starch and gelatinized starch in blends with poly(butylene succinate) (Bionolle) were thoroughly examined in this study. The melting temperature decreased slightly with increasing dosages of untreated and gelatinized starch. The added starch perhaps tended to…
Uniaxially oriented films with high tensile strength were processed from ultrahigh-molecular-weight poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate] (P(3HB)) by a method combining hot-drawing near the melting point of the polymer and two-step-drawing at room temperature. In a two-step-drawn and subsequently annealed film, P(3HB) molecular…
Aerobic reactions of Co(O(2)CMe)(2).4H(2)O with di-2-pyridyl ketone oxime (Hpko) in the presence of counterions (ClO(4)(-), PF(6-)) give the tetranuclear, mixed-valence cobalt(II/III) clusters [Co(II)(2)Co(III)(2)(OR)(2)(O(2)CMe)(2)(pko)(4)S(2)]X(2) [R = H, S = MeOH, X = ClO(4) (1); R = Me, S = EtOH, X = PF(6) (2)] de…
We report on an intricate competition between charge density wave (CDW) formation and superconductivity under pressure up to 11 GPa in the low-dimensional conductor ${\mathrm{ZrTe}}_{3}$. As pressure increases, the CDW transition temperature ${T}_{\mathrm{CDW}}$ initially increases, then begins to decrease at 2 GPa an…
We report on a pronounced redistribution of the local electronic density of states at the graphite surface, which is induced by the presence of low energy hydrogen-ion induced point defects. Scanning tunneling microscopy reveals standing waves in the local density of states, which are due to backscattering of electron…
Abstract Fire retardants are briefly reviewed with reference to commonly available polymeric foams. Both physical and chemical aspects of intumescent fire retardants are summarized. New products based on nanocomposites are introduced as well. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 97: 366–376, 2005
Abstract Summary: A method to measure the Young's modulus of a single electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fiber is reported. The Young's modulus can be calculated from the force‐displacement curves obtained by the bending of a single fiber attached to an atomic force microscopy (AFM) cantilever. It is suggested that t…
We have developed a unique approach for the fabrication of enzyme aggregate coatings on the surfaces of electrospun polymer nanofibres. This approach employs covalent attachment of seed enzymes onto nanofibres consisting of a mixture of polystyrene and poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride), followed by a glutaraldehyde (G…
We have studied the surface modifications as well as the surface roughness of the InP(111) surfaces after 1.5 MeV Sb ion implantations. Scanning Probe Microscope (SPM) has been utilized to investigate the ion implanted InP(111) surfaces. We observe the formation of nanoscale defect structures on the InP surface. The d…
Superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanocrystals were prepared by a chemical coprecipitation method with a thin thickness-adjustable silica layer coated on the surface by hydrolysis of tetraethyl orthosilicate. The silica-coated Fe3O4 nanocrystals were well dispersed and consisted of a 6-7 nm diameter magnetic core and a silica s…
Abstract Summary: Polyamide 6 (PA6)/acrylonitrile‐butadiene‐styrene (ABS) (40/60 w/w) nanocomposites with a novel morphology were prepared by the melt mixing of PA6, ABS and organoclay. The blend nanocomposites had a co‐continuous structure, in which both PA6 and styrene‐acrylonitrile (SAN) were continuous phases. It…
A decrease in microhardness along the (010) cleavage in potassium acid phthalate single crystals by 15--18% after the application of a permanent magnetic field was revealed for the first time. It is shown that the effect revealed is of the volume character. The role of interlayer water in the processes stimulated by a…
A theory of doped perovskite vanadates with spin and orbital orders is presented. Mobile holes are strongly renormalized by spin excitations (magnons) in the spin G-type and orbital C-type (SG-OC) order, and orbital excitations (orbitons) in the spin C-type and orbital G-type (SC-OG) one. Hole dynamics in a staggered…
It is widely accepted that self-assembling building blocks is one of the promising ways for engineering new materials. Recent years reveal substantial progress in fabricating colloidal particles, polymer blocks and supramolecular aggregates of organic molecules. Despite of substantial progress in molecular self-assemb…
We investigated numerically the high-temperature/high-pressure phase diagram of Xenon as modelled through the exp-6 interaction potential, which is thought to provide a reliable description of the thermal behaviour of rare gases under extreme conditions. We performed a series of extensive NVT Monte Carlo simulations w…
Polymeric methyltrioxorhenium (poly-MTO) represents the first example of an inherent conducting organometallic oxide. It adopts the structural motives and transport properties of some classical perovskites in two dimensions. In this study we present resistivity data down to 30 mK which exhibit a crossover from a metal…
We use impedance spectroscopy to measure the high frequency properties of single-walled carbon nanotube field effect transistors (swCN-FETs). Furthermore, we extend Scanning Gate Microscopy (SGM) to frequencies up to 15MHz, and use it to image changes in the impedance of swCN-FET circuits induced by the SGM-tip gate.…
Magnetostatic modes of Yttrium Iron Garnet (YIG) films are investigated by ferromagnetic resonance force microscopy (FMRFM). A thin film ``probe'' magnet at the tip of a compliant cantilever introduces a local inhomogeneity in the internal field of the YIG sample. This influences the shape of the sample's magnetostati…
