We consider statistical mechanical properties of the primitive chain network (PCN) model for entangled polymers from its dynamic equations. We show that the dynamic equation for the segment number of the PCN model does not reduce to the standard Langevin equation which satisfies the detailed balance condition. We prop…
Er3+ doped CaF2-fluorophosphate (FP) glass microcomposites were produced by heat-treating the mixture of Er3+:CaF2 precipitate and FP glass powder above the melting temperature of the FP glass. The appearance of CaF2 crystallites in the resulting composites was confirmed by x ray diffraction. Despite the fact that the…
Bifunctional linkers for modification of TiO2 nanoparticles were prepared containing a catechol group for TiO2 surface attachment and a maleimide and alkyne group for Michael addition and Cu catalysed Huisgen cycloaddition respectively. Peptide and fluorophore functionalised TiO2 NPs were prepared, different purificat…
We present the synthesis, characterization of the structures, and magnetic properties of five isostructural dodecanuclear coordination clusters of Ni(II) and Co(II): [Co(12)(bm)(12)(NO(3))(O(2)CMe)(6)(EtOH)(6)](NO(3))(5) (1), [Ni(12)(bm)(12)(NO(3))(O(2)CMe)(6)(H(2)O)(3)(EtOH)(3)](NO(3))(5)·2H(2)O (2), mixed-metal comp…
The effect of a deformation near and above the glass transition on macromolecular orientation, residual stress, and molecular mobility was investigated on amorphous stimuli-responsive starch. The recovery stress, linked to the residual stress in the temporary shape, evolves linearly with the macromolecular orientation…
This paper presents experimental and numerical results of a series of drop weight impact tests examining the dynamic response of fully clamped aluminium 5083/H111 circular plates struck laterally at the centre by a mass with a spherical indenter. The impact velocity varied from 1.0 to 6.0 m/s. The plates showed no vis…
Accurate measurements of magnetic properties of soft magnetic composite (SMC) material are performed on an improved 3-D tester by means of novel precision$B-H$sensing coils attached to the surface of a cubic SMC specimen. By controlling the adjustable excitation topologies, magnetic properties over wide excitation fre…
Imidazolate-containing {Fe(NO)(2)}(9) molecular squares have been synthesized by oxidative CO displacement from the reduced Fe(CO)(2)(NO)(2) precursor. The structures of complex 1 [(imidazole)Fe(NO)(2)](4), (Ford, Li, et al.; Chem. Commun.2005, 477-479), 2 [(2-isopropylimidazole)Fe(NO)(2)](4), and 3 [(benzimidazole)Fe…
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized using Bacillus cereus strains. Earlier, we had synthesized monodispersive crystalline silver nanoparticles using B. cereus PGN1 and ATCC14579 strains. These strains have showed high level of resistance to silver nitrate (1 mM) but their global transcriptomic response has n…
The highly uniform micro- and mesoporous SiO(2) nanoparticles (40-70 nm) are hierarchically functionalized with antagonistic groups: hydrophobic (phenyl) on the internal pores and hydrophilic (methyl-phosphonate) on the external surface. Considering the large hydrophobic internal coating and the long-term colloidal st…
We present a conformal ink-jet printed 2-bit four-element phased-array antenna (PAA) without any lithography process. Passive and active components, such as microstrip transmission lines, phase shifters, and RF power distribution networks are all developed adopting a room-temperature printing process. The PAA working…
Carbon nanotubes can intracellularly transport through different cellular barriers. However, their use in plant cells is limited by the cellulosic cell wall surrounding these cells. Here we show that cup-stacked carbon nanotubes with cellulase immobilized on their sidewalls and tips penetrate the cell wall and transpo…
Although the last decade has brought self-healing materials to the forefront of scientific interests, combining repair and sensing attributes into one material entity have not been addressed. These studies report the development of poly(methyl methacrylate/n-butylacrylate/2-[(1,3,3-trimethyl-1,3-dihydrospiro[indole-2,…
The [ε-PMo(V)(8)Mo(VI)(4)O(36)(OH)(4){Ln(III)(H(2)O)}(4)](5+) (Ln=La, Ce, Nd, Sm) polyoxocations, called εLn(4), have been synthesized at room temperature as chloride salts soluble in water, MeOH, EtOH, and DMF. Rare-earth metals can be exchanged, and (31)P NMR spectroscopic studies have allowed a comparison of the af…
Despite a long history of success in formation of transition-metal-doped quantum dots (QDs), the origin of magnetism in diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMSs) is yet a controversial issue. Cr(II)-doped II-VI DMSs are half-metallic, resulting in high-temperature ferromagnetism. The magnetic properties reflect a strong…
A highly refractive, transparent, and totally colorless poly(phenylene thioether) (PPT) containing a triazine unit has been developed. A new aromatic dithiol, thianthrene-2,7-dithiol, with a high sulfur content was designed and synthesized in order to develop PPTs with high refractive indices and high glass transition…
A simple chemical route for the exfoliation of kaolinite in the presence of polymerizable ionic liquids and the resulting obtainment of exfoliated nanocomposites is reported. The exfoliation was achieved using three different ionic liquids structurally bearing a vinyl group: 1-methyl-3-(4-vinylbenzyl)imidazolium chlor…
We present the results based on the electro-optic and dielectric properties of silica nanoparticle (SNP) doped ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) in SmC* phase. Switching time, spontaneous polarization and rotational viscosity decreases with increase in the silica concentration. An improvement in switching time after…
Localization and intracellular migration of 32 and 83 nm SiO 2 nanoparticles in relation to the nucleus was evaluated in vitro on undifferentiated human colon carcinoma (Caco-2) cells. The fluorescence dye Atto647N was incorporated into the particles, which enabled detection by high resolution, nondiffraction limited…
In this study, we developed a novel strategy to control the orientation of microdomains in block copolymer thin films by introducing either selective or neutral gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) that were thermally stable. The Au NPs were modified with thiol-terminated polymeric ligands, poly[(methyl methacrylate- r -styren…
