Abstract New thermosetting resins for applications of sheet‐molding compounds (SMCs) were successfully synthesized from linseed oil, which is the most molecularly unsaturated of all plant oils. The carbon–carbon double bonds were opened by epoxidation, followed by acrylation, and then maleinization, which provided mor…
Abstract Single crystals of BTZA have been grown by low temperature solution growth method using slow cooling process at an optimized pH of 3.5. The grown crystals have been examined under an optical microscope to study its surface morphology. The morphological studies show that the growth takes place by spreading of…
The mechanical properties of a model of Y-doped intergranular glassy film in silicon nitride ceramics are studied by large-scale ab initio modeling. By linking directly to its electronic structure, it is shown that this microstructure has a complex nonlinear deformation under stress and Y doping significantly enhances…
Abstract This article highlights the history, synthetic routes, material properties, and scope of ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA)/clay nanocomposites. These nanocomposites of EVAs are achieved with either unmodified or organomodified layered silicates with different methods. The structures of the resulting poly…
Dendronized polymers based on a poly(L-lysine) backbone have been synthesized up to the fourth generation. The hydroxyl-terminated polymers are completely water-soluble, which makes them good candidates for drug delivery applications. The dendronized polypeptide backbones are helical at lower generations, but undergo…
As part of an effort to synthesize a dendronized cellulose, we have synthesized a trifunctional aminoamide derivative, which is the first generation of a dendron substituent. We anticipate that a dendronized cellulose would have applications in complexing metals and could be employed as an adjuvant for drugs. The trif…
Abstract Recent research on all aspects of thermally point‐bonded nonwovens has led to considerable improvements in the understanding of material requirements for these nonwovens, the changes that occur during bonding, and the mechanical properties of the resultant nonwoven materials. This article will review (1) how…
Results of a combined photoelectron spectroscopy and first-principles density-functional study of SiN- clusters in the size range 20 <or= N <or= 45 are reported and discussed. Evidence for a prolate-to-near-spherical shape transition at N = 27 is presented. It is shown that the tricapped-trigonal-prism (TTP) structura…
The grain size and regularity of the hexagonal array of mesoporous silica nanoparticles were investigated in a binary surfactant system composed of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride and triblock copolymer EO106PO60EO106. Structural control was achieved by varying the parameters for the prior hydrolysis of silicon alkoxi…
Porous scaffolds composed of collagen or collagen and elastin were prepared by freeze drying at temperatures between -18 and -196 degrees C. All scaffolds had a porosity of 90-98% and a homogeneous distribution of pores. Freeze drying at -18 degrees C afforded collagen and collagen/elastin matrices with average pore s…
Highly ordered TiSBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieves with different nSi/nTi ratios and tunable pore diameters have been prepared through direct synthesis under various hydrochloric acid concentrations and synthetic temperatures. The structure and the textural parameters of the materials were investigated by powder X-ra…
Au nanoparticles grown on mildly sputtered Highly Ordered Pyrolytic Graphite (HOPG) surfaces were studied using Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). The results were compared with those of Ag nanoparticles on the same substrate. By varying the defect densities of HOPG and the…
An analytical molecular mechanics model is established to relate the chirality- and size-dependent elastic properties of a single-walled carbon nanotube to its atomic structure. Properties at different length scales are directly connected by the derived closed-form expressions. The effects of tube chirality and tube d…
We demonstrate the fabrication and operation of a carbon nanotube (CNT) based Schottky diode by using a Pd contact (high-work-function metal) and an Al contact (low-work-function metal) at the two ends of a single-wall CNT. We show that it is possible to tune the rectification current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of…
Dendrimers, dendrons, and hyperbranched polymers are gaining popularity as novel drugs, imaging agents, and drug delivery systems. They present advantages of well-defined molecular weight, multivalent surfaces, and high drug carrying capacity. Moreover, it is emerging that such architectures can display unique endocyt…
Phosphorus-doped silicon single crystals with 0.19 % <= f <= 99.2 %, where f is the concentration of 29^Si isotopes, are measured at 8 K using a pulsed electron spin resonance technique, thereby the effect of environmental 29^Si nuclear spins on the donor electron spin is systematically studied. The linewidth as a fun…
We present a first-principles study of the structure and energetics of Bjerrum defects in ice Ih and compare the results to experimental electrical conductivity data. While the DFT result for the activation energy is in good agreement with experiment, we find that its two components have quite different values. Aside…
Plane-wave reflection and refraction at an interface with a double-wire medium is considered. The problem of additional boundary conditions (ABC) in application to wire media is discussed and an ABC-free approach, known in the solid state physics, is used. Expressions for the fields and Poynting vectors of the refract…
A spin density functional (SDFT) study of carboxylate-bridged and diazenido-bridged dinuclear gadolinium compounds is presented. Calculated magnetic coupling constants for the carboxylate-bridged structures are in good agreement with experimental data, confirming the ability of the broken symmetry approach used in thi…
We synthesized a series of amino substituted triarylboranes (TABs) 1-3 by copper(I)-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. The title compounds were investigated by means of cyclic voltammetry (CV) and UV-visible absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. Electrochemical oxidation of tris(4-carbazolyl-2,6-dimethylphenyl)bo…
