We investigate molecular adsorption on single-walled carbon nanotubes (NTs) by ab initio calculations and by measurements of the conductivity response of NT arrays to trace vapors for a range of linear chain molecules. Experiment and calculations show that the short-time responses give adsorption energies that increas…

Abstract N , N ‐Di(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐ N ‐dodecyl‐ N ‐methyl ammonium chloride was used as intercalation agent to treat Na + ‐montmorillonite and form a type of organic montmorillonite (OMMT). Hyperbranched OMMT (HOMMT) was prepared by condensation reaction between OMMT and the monomer we synthesized. It was then used in…

Abstract Commonly used dicumyl peroxide (DCP) in combination with coagent, triallyl cyanurate (TAC), as a crosslinking agent is well acceptable for dynamically vulcanized rubber phase of thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs). However, it generally produces volatile decomposition products, which cause a typical unpleasant…

It is known that a transition from layer-by-layer (LbL) to step-flow (SF) can occur at the earliest stages of SrRuO3 growth on SrTiO3(001). We report here the observation of a reversible transition between these two-dimensional growth modes that can occur at any SrRuO3 thickness, tuned by short growth interruption. We…
