The reaction of LnI(3) x xMeCN (Ln = Gd, Dy) and TCNE (tetracyanoethylene) in acetonitrile forms Ln(2)[C(4)(CN)(8)](3) x xMeCN. These paramagnetic light-colored solids contain the S = 0 octacyanobutandiide dianion, [C(4)(CN)(8)](2-), which upon desolvation of these products forms dark green Ln(TCNE)(3). In these compo…

While aromatic polyimides have found widespread use as high-performance polymers, the present work addressed the need for organosoluble pre-imidized materials through the use of a hyperbranching scheme. The AB 2 monomer, N -[3,5-bis(4-hydroxybenzoyl)benzene]-4-fluorophthalimide, was prepared from 4-fluoroisophthalic a…

We examine the alignment of thin film diblock copolymers subject to a perpendicular electric field. Two regimes are considered separately: weak segregation and strong segregation. For weakly segregated blocks and below a critical value of the field, E c, surface interactions stabilize stacking of lamellae in a directi…

The effect of the addition of CeO 2 on the structural and textural properties of TiO 2 and TiO 2 −CuO samples calcined at different temperatures was analyzed. The structural and textural transformation when the temperature of calcination was varied was followed by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and N 2 adsorpt…

We prepared novel transition-metal (Ti, Ta, V) oxide fibers with chiral, helical, and nanotubular structures. The nanostructured metal oxide materials were provided by the sol-gel polymerization of metal alkoxides using chiral self-assemblies of organogelators as structure-directing agents. The chiral structures of th…

The effects of strain rate, temperature and stress triaxiality on strength and ductility are studied for the three structural steels Weidox 460 E, Weldox 700 E and Weldox 900 E. The material properties are obtained from three types of tensile tests: quasi-static tests with smooth and notched specimens, quasi-static te…

Brushes of poly(ε-caprolactone) are grown by ring-opening polymerization from initiators immobilized on gold surfaces with nanometer-scale topography. Control of the thicknesses of the brushes can be exploited to tune the effect of the underlying nanometer-scale topography on the orientations of supported liquid cryst…

Abstract Blends of isotactic (natural) poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) are partially miscible, and PHB in excess of 20 wt % segregates as a partially crystalline pure phase. Copolymers containing atactic PHB chains grafted onto a PMMA backbone are used to compatibilize phase‐separate…

The behavior of a solution of equilibrium polymers (or living polymers) at an interface is studied, using a Bethe-Guggenheim lattice model for molecules with orientation dependent interactions. The density profile of polymers and the chain length distribution are calculated. For equilibrium polymers at a nonadsorbing…

Reaction enthalpies are calculated for the hydrogenation reactions of main group hydrides with the potential for multiple bonding, and thus the unsaturated character of these species is determined. In addition to the global minimum structures, which leave in some cases no hope for even a single E-E bond (E=Group 13, 1…
