Aluminium alkyl complexes [(OSSO)AlR](1-3: R = Me, Et) were isolated in good yields from the protonolysis reaction of AlR3 with the corresponding tetradentate 1,omega-dithiaalkanediyl-bridged bisphenols (1,4-dithiabutanediyl-bis(6-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol), etbmpH2; ortho-xylylenedithio-bis(6-tert-butyl-4-methylpheno…
Co- and Cu-doped ZnO of nominal composition Zn0.95Co0.05O and Zn0.94Co0.05Cu0.01O were synthesized by a co-precipitation method in organic media. Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction data of the samples annealed at 725 K showed that they are single phase without any secondary phases. DC magnetization measurements…
Diatoms have become important organisms for monitoring freshwaters and their value has been recognised for cross-border water quality monitoring in the European Union. If South Africa is to include diatoms in the current suite of bioindicators, then thorough testing of diatom-based techniques is required. This paper p…
One of the important characteristics of dealloying systems is the location of the critical potential which marks the transition from a "passivated" alloy surface to the sustained formation of a bicontinuous porous structure. A steady-state method for accurately determining the dealloying critical potential is compared…
Processing of ultrafine grained ferrite/martensite dual phase (UFG F/M DP) steel by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) and subsequent intercritical annealing was described in detail. Along with strain gradient plasticity concept in which an introduction of a high density of geometrically necessary dislocations attr…
A novel and facile method for the Zn-mediated intramolecular cyclization of beta-porphyrin radicals has been developed for the convenient and effective construction of newly fused five-membered porphyrin systems from readily available beta-bromotetraarylporphyrins.
>Sol–gel and electrospinning techniques were incorporated to produce polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/titanium (IV) oxide composite nanofibers from solutions containing PVP and titanium tetraisopropoxide. Diameters of the obtained composite fibers were in the range of 120–350 nm. The effects of PVP concentration and electro…
The straightforward synthesis of two new classes of core-extended perylene chromophores, dibenzocoronene tetracarboxdiimide and indenoperylene dicarboxmonoimide, proves that directional enlargement of the aromatic pi-system leads to tailored bathochromic and hypsochromic shifts.
We have studied the mobilities of calcium and sodium ions in silicate glasses of compositions xNa2O (3 - x)CaO x 4SiO2 with x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.3, 1.0 and 3.0 by means of radiotracer diffusion, electrical conductivity measurements, and dynamic mechanical thermal analyses. In glasses containing sodium oxide, the Na+ ions a…
Novel multiwalled carbon nanotube/metalloporphyrin nanohybrids are devised and probed as versatile donor-acceptor hybrids.
The characteristics of energy storage and dissipation in TiNi shape memory alloys were investigated experimentally based on the superelastic properties under various thermomechanical loading conditions. The influence of strain rate, cyclic loading and temperature-controlled condition on the characteristics of energy s…
Magnetostriction in systems with rare-earth elements is a very general topic of interest because it characterizes the electronic magnetism of compounds as well as the interaction of the magnetic and the lattice system. The magnetostrictive behaviour of classical ferromagnets is widely investigated. The interpretation…
Alternative inexpensive complex nitrogen- and phosphate sources from agriculture, green grass juice (GGJ) and silage juice (SJ), were added to cultivation medium in order to investigate their impact on growth of the well-known polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) accumulating strain Wautersia eutropha. The influence of these ad…
Polymer nanohybrid materials that consist of poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA) and aluminosilicate nanofiber imogolite were prepared by effective dispersion of aluminosilicate nanofiber in a polymer matrix by an synthetic method. The as-synthesized imogolite-PVA hybrid was characterized by infrared spectroscopy, wide angle X-r…
The electrochemical behavior, interfacial properties, and stability of Pt, Ti, smooth and rough TiN electrodes for pacemaker applications were investigated in a phosphate-buffered saline solution, by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry (CV), as well as surface analysis using scanning electron…
This work deals with composites of high-temperature proton conductors and inorganic compounds such as carbonates, hydroxides, and chlorides. Discontinuities were found in the vs . plots which are ascribed to superionic phase transitions occurring in the interface region between the constituent phases. A similar superi…
This paper reports a preparation method for silk sericin hydrogel using the Sericin-hope silkworm, whose cocoons consist almost exclusively of sericin. Sericin solution, prepared from Sericin-hope cocoons, contains intact sericin and forms elastic hydrogels with the addition of ethanol. The sericin hydrogel can be pre…
IEEE standards and test procedures are widely used by motor and generator vendors and users to commission windings in new machines, as well as evaluate the condition of the winding insulation in operating machines. Until recent revisions, the basic procedures and standards in use were written over 25 years ago. Since…
Ag(I) and Cu(II) complexes of a series of simple bis(urea) ligands form soft metallogels. X-ray crystallographic results suggests that the gels' structure is based on hydrogen bonding to counter anions and thus suggests a route to tunable gel rheological properties.
A new class of efficient hydrogelators has been developed by a simple modification of the peripheral substituents of cyclohexane bis-urea organogelators with hydrophilic hydroxy or amino functionalities. These bis-urea hydrogelators were synthesised in two or three steps using an alternative procedure to the common is…
