The surface dilational elasticity module E of a soluble cationic surfactant at the air-water interface is measured in a frequency range of 1-500 Hz. The data are then correlated with the lifetime of a foam lamella formed with the same surfactant solution. The surface rheological measurement have been performed with an…

A simple method to decorate the multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with ZnS nanospheres has been developed. The method involves ultrasonic pretreatment and heat treatments of MWCNTs, zinc chloride, and thiourea in ethanol. The heterostructures have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron mi…

We describe here a new strategy for the synthesis of polymers with highly branched architectures. The strategy involves the synthesis by anionic polymerization of well-defined AB 2 polystyrene (condensation) macromonomers with molecular weights from 3500 to 38 000 g mol -1, which are then converted via a one-pot polyc…

The transverse spin fluctuations are introduced to the density functional theory for superconductors (SCDFT). Paramagnons are treated within the random phase approximation and assumed to be the same for the normal and superconducting state. The effect of spin fluctuations on Tc is studied for a few simple metals at am…

The first molecule that assembles by ultrasound is described. An association-inert dinuclear Pd complex, anti-1a, which is stabilized by intramolecular pi-stacking interactions, gelatinizes a variety of organic solvents instantly upon brief presonication for a few seconds. This is the first quick, positive, and revers…

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) are new materials of emerging technological importance. As SWCNT are introduced into the life cycle of commercial products, their effects on human health and environment should be addressed. We demonstrated that pharyngeal aspiration of SWCNT elicited unusual pulmonary effects in…

Electron spin resonance (ESR) has been applied to investigate the magnetic heterogeneity in electron doped La(1-x)Ca(x)MnO(3) (0.80≤x≤0.95). A low field ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) mode is observed for lightly doped compounds (x = 0.90,0.95), signifying the formation of ferromagnetic (FM) spin clusters within the an…

Water exchange from the oxo-centered rhodium(III) trimer, [Rh3(mu3-O)(mu-O2CCH3)6(OH2)3]+, was investigated using variable-temperature (272.8-281.6 K) and variable-pressure (0.1-200 MPa) 17O NMR spectroscopy. The exchange reaction was also monitored at three different acidities (pH = 1.8, 2.9, and 5.7) in which the mo…

We used hydrothermal epitaxy to fabricate a heteroepitaxial PbTiO3 (PTO) thin film on a Nb-doped (001) cubic SrTiO3 (NSTO) substrate while avoiding the phase transition. By means of transmission electron microscopy and piezoresponse force microscopy analyses, it was confirmed that no a domain formed in the heteroepita…
