We describe a convenient, one-step sol−gel route to composite polymeric organic−inorganic particles. The synthesis is based on performing the sol−gel polycondensation within a surfactant-stabilized emulsion of a solution of a polymer polystyrene of various molecular weights in tetraethoxysilane, with or without toluen…

There is currently a great need for solid state lasers that emit in the infrared. Whether or not conjugated polymers that emit in the IR can be synthesized is an interesting theoretical challenge. We show that emission in the IR can be achieved in designer polymers in which the effective Coulomb correlation is smaller…

Nonthermal secondary electrons with initial kinetic energies below 100 eV are an abundant transient species created in irradiated cells and thermalize within picoseconds through successive multiple energy loss events. Here we show that below 15 eV such low-energy electrons induce single (SSB) and double (DSB) strand b…

Abstract An analytical technique based on electron spin resonance (ESR) has been developed to estimate the concentration of hindered amine stabiliser additives (HAS) in a polymeric formulation. Our method involves the conversion of the overall HAS derivatives into nitroxyl‐free radicals by exposure of the stabilised p…

Development of clinically valuable porphyrin drugs for use in photodynamic therapy requires characterization of membrane effects on porphyrin excited-state dynamics and bimolecular quenching with oxygen. This study reports on the quenching of triplet-state tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP), 5-( p -carboxyphenyl)-10,15,20-tri…

Abstract The dynamic mechanical properties of a model system consisting of a styrene–butadiene (SB) symmetric block copolymer blended with poly(2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide) (PPO) have been studied. It is shown that PPO is effectively incorporated in the rigid domains of the material but that the distribution of t…

Abstract Microcapsules obtained by interfacial polycondensation from an original system based on the polyaddition of specific di‐ or polyamines and more classical acyl chloride molecules were studied. The originality of the system lies in the fact that the encapsulated agent is the internal phase allowing its incorpor…

An analytical description for helical twisting in chiral liquid crystals is derived, which explores the correlation between the macroscopic properties of a liquid crystal and the parameters of single molecules. This theory is based on a simple model of a spiral-like rigid molecules that possess a limited number of par…

The aim of this paper is to review the actual data on the chemical bond in binary and mixed oxides. The electronegativity ( χ M ) and the acidity p a scales are the most significant semi‐empirical concepts for predicting the trend of bonding character in iono‐covalent oxides. A satisfactory correlation between the dat…

Using the controlled precipitation of silicic acid on functionalized polystyrene latexes, nanometer sized silica-coated spheres could be prepared and subsequently modified to allow dispersion in non-aqueous solvents; removal of the interior polymer by calcination resulted in the formation of hollow silica spheres.

Lymphatic distribution of interstitially injected poloxamer 407-coated nanospheres (45 nm in diameter) is controlled by surface configuration of the ethylene oxide (EO) segments of the adsorbed copolymer. At low poloxamer surface coverage, EO tails spread laterally on a nanosphere surface and assume a 'flat or mushroo…
