Evaporating droplets of polymer or colloid solution may produce a glassy crust at the liquid-vapour interface, which subsequently deforms as an elastic shell. For sessile droplets, the known radial outward flow of solvent is expected to generate crusts that are thicker near the pinned contact line than the apex. Here…
Heat transport in polymer nanocomposites reinforced with graphite nanoplatelets (GNPs) is studied using high-precision thermal conductivity measurements. The resistance to heat conduction across interfaces between GNPs and the polymer matrix has a strong effect on energy transport in the nanocomposites. The thermal co…
An overview of the application of cavitation phenomenon for the intensification of chemical/physical processing applications has been presented here, discussing the causes for the observed enhancement and highlighting some of the typical examples. The important considerations required for efficient scale-up of the cav…
Self-assembled multiferroic nanostructures with controllable morphologies are obtained by varying the stress state in epitaxial composite films containing ferrimagnetic CoFe2O4 and ferroelectric PbTiO3. The stress state can be controlled by using different substrate orientations and phase fractions. The figure shows t…
ABSTRACT: The objective of this work was to compare the physiochemical and rheological properties of Alaska pollock skin gelatin (AG) to those obtained for tilapia and pork skin gelatins. Results were also obtained for some mixed gels containing AG and pork skin gelatin, or AG and tilapia gelatin. AG contained about 7…
In order to point out the influence of thermal history (fictive temperature) and OH content on the elastic properties of silica glass, we have performed high resolution in situ Brillouin spectra of SiO2 glass from room temperature to the supercooled liquid at 1773K across the glass transition. The well known anomalous…
By considering the continuous model for graphene, we analytically study a special gauge field for the edge state. The gauge field explains the properties of the edge state such as the existence only on the zigzag edge, the partial appearance in the $k$-space, and the energy position around the Fermi energy. It is demo…
Antibacterial multilayer films containing nanosilver were prepared via layer-by-layer fashion. PET film was aminolyzed with 1,6-hexanediamine to introduce amino groups on PET film surface; chitosan-silver nitrate complex and heparin were alternately deposited onto an aminolyzed PET film surface, and subsequently, the…
The formation condition of an intermediate compound of LiBH4 during the partial dehydriding reaction and its local atomistic structure have been experimentally investigated. LiBH4 changes into an intermediate compound accompanying the release of approximately 11mass% of hydrogen at 700–730K. The Raman spectra indicate…
The static polarization function is calculated in two-dimensional graphite and used for the calculation of the conductivity limited by charged-impurity scattering. The conductivity increases in proportion to the electron concentration and the mobility remains independent of the Fermi energy, in qualitative agreement w…
Escherichia coli quinol-fumarate reductase operates with both natural quinones, ubiquinone (UQ) and menaquinone (MQ), at a single quinone binding site. We have utilized a combination of mutagenesis, kinetic, EPR, and Fourier transform infrared methods to study the role of two residues, Lys-B228 and Glu-C29, at the qui…
Environmental Context. The fate and behaviour of trace pollutants are very strongly modified, and usually dominated, by their physical and chemical interactions with naturally occurring aquatic colloids (defined as solid phase material with one dimension between 1 nm and 1 µm). This review summarises the area and key…
Abstract Two-dimensionally (2-D) networked gold nanowires have been prepared by a simple chemical reduction method using glycerol as capping agents. It was found that 2-D gold nanowires were more active than spherical gold nanoparticles on hydrogen generation from sodium borohydride solution.
The yeast transcriptional activator Zap1 contains two uncommon structural motifs designated zinc finger pair domains. The hallmark of this domain is the packing of two zinc finger motifs in one globular unit. One finger pair domain in Zap1 contains the AD2 transactivation domain. Zn(II) binding to this domain (ZF1/2)…
This study presents new investigations on chemical syntheses and characterization of new asymmetric AB(n)-shaped amphiphilic diblock methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-b-[poly(l-lactide)](n), MPEG-b-(PLLA)(n) (n = 2, 4, and 8), bridged with dendritic ester linkages. First, a new series of A(OH)(n)-shaped hydroxy end-capped…
We report the preparation, characterization and mechanical properties of DNA/phosphorus dendrimer multilayer microcapsules. The shells of these microcapsules are composed by alternating DNA and positively charged dendrimer G n (NH + Et 2 Cl - ) m ( n = 1, 2, 3, 4; m = 12, 24, 48, 96). The same multilayers were constru…
Enzymatic ring-opening copolymerization of 5-benzyloxy-trimethylene carbonate (BTMC) and 1,4-dioxan-2-one (DON) was investigated for the first time. Immobilized porcine pancreas lipase (IPPL) on silica particles was selected to perform the copolymerization. A series of novel biodegradable copolymers with different com…
Psu, a coat protein from bacteriophage P4, has been shown to inhibit Rho-dependent transcription termination in vivo. Co-overexpression of Psu and Rho led to the loss of viability of the cells, which is the consequence of the anti-Rho activity of the protein. The antitermination property of Psu is abolished either by…
For newly prepared sodium tetrakis(3-heptafluorobutylryl-(+)-camphorato) Ln(III) complexes, the X-ray crystal analysis revealed an unprecedented pseudo-achiral dodecahedron (DD-8 (D(2d))), whereas in CHCl3 solution, the exciton CD and 19F NMR spectra showed a novel chiral Delta-SAPR-8 (C4) configuration which is stere…
We synthesized two polyimides (PIs), poly(4,4‘-(9,9-fluorenyl)diphenylene cyclobutanyltetracarboximide) (CBDA-FDA) and poly(4,4‘-(9,9-fluorenyl)diphenylene pyromellitimide) (PMDA-FDA), and investigated in detail the surface morphology, molecular orientation, and nematic liquid crystal (LC) alignments of rubbed CBDA-FD…
