Abstract A reactive extrusion process for the functionalization of polypropylene with maleic anhydride in the presence of supercritical carbon dioxide was studied. Supercritical carbon dioxide was used in this reactive extrusion system to reduce the viscosity of the polypropylene melt phase by forming a polymer–gas so…
Polypyrrole microstructures with unusual morphologies have been synthesized by direct electrochemical oxidation of pyrrole in beta-naphthalenesulfonic acid aqueous solution.
In this paper, we study the changes in the structural, vibrational, bonding, and electronic properties of small clusters of the group III nitrides when an electron is added to the neutral clusters. The results, based on density functional calculations, reveal that the addition of an electron induces significant struct…
Important progress has been made in recent years toward developing a molecular-level understanding of protein phase behavior in terms of the osmotic second virial coefficient, a thermodynamic parameter that characterizes pairwise protein interactions. Yet there has been little practical application of this knowledge t…
In the presence of humic substances (HSs), the oxidative conversion of pentachlorophenol (PCP) was found to be efficiently catalyzed by tetra(p-sulfophenyl)porphineiron(III) (Fe(III)-TPPS) using KHSO5 as an oxygen donor. Ortho-tetrachloroquinone (o-TeCQ), 2-hydroxyl-nonachlorodiphenyl ether (2H-NCDE), 4-hydroxyl-nonac…
Abstract The tert ‐butoxychlorosilanes ( t ‐BuO) 3 SiCl ( 1 ), ( t ‐BuO) 2 SiCl 2 ( 2 ), and [( t ‐BuO) 2 SiCl] 2 O ( 3 ) were prepared by the reaction of SiCl 4 or (Cl 3 Si) 2 O with t ‐BuOK. Subsequent hydrolysis afforded the tert ‐butoxysilanols ( t ‐BuO) 3 SiOH ( 4 ), ( t ‐BuO) 2 Si(OH) 2 ( 5 ), HO[( t ‐BuO) 2 SiO…
We report here an investigation of metal-ligand interactions in nanoparticles with 13C NMR, using a labeled 13C1-octanethiol, a protecting ligand for self-assembled monolayer (SAM) systems, in which close proximity of the 13C1 to the metal surface serves as an effective probe for the changing electronic environment. S…
Polypyrrole (PPy) has been deposited from aqueous solution onto two types of near-monodisperse poly(alkyl methacrylate) latexes and the resulting composite particles have been extensively characterized using SEM, DCP, XPS, FTIR, and electrical conductivity measurements. Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) latex is more d…
Hybrid alumina nanoparticles with pepsin were prepared in a controlled and efficient manner. Phosphorylated pepsin can be coupled to alumina through the interaction between phosphoserine on pepsin and the alumina surface in an orientation-specific manner. A comparison of data obtained with nanoparticles and microsized…
Epipelic diatom assemblages collected from three wetlands connected to the Murray River displayed considerable variation in response to flooding and drying phases. Murray River water input usually generated diatom assemblages dominated by Aulacoseira species. After isolation, the diatom flora of two wetlands shifted t…
The structure of nanoparticle manganese zinc ferrites synthesized by a reverse micellar method is determined by analysis of the extended x-ray-absorption fine structure in combination with other techniques. Both empirical and theoretical standards are employed; manganese, zinc, and iron edges are refined simultaneousl…
Polydisperse samples of Au nanoparticles protected with monolayers of hexanethiolate ligands (C6 MPCs) and with mixed monolayers of hexanethiolate and mercaptoundecanoic acid (C6/MUA MPCs) have been chromatographically separated using C8 120-A columns and acetone/ toluene mobile phase. The spectral details of eluted p…
It was early shown that the macrocyclic Ln(DOTA) complexes (DOTA = 1,4,7,10-tetra-azacyclododecane-N,N',N' ',N' "-tetraacetic acid) exists in solution as a mixture of two enantiomeric pairs of diastereoisomers differing in the ligand conformation, namely, square antiprismatic (SA) and twisted square antiprismatic (TSA…
This brief report studies noncoaxial mechanical resonance of an isolated multiwall carbon nanotube. Noncoaxial resonant frequencies and the associated noncoaxial vibrational modes are calculated. For shorter or periodically supported multiwall carbon nanotubes, the lowest noncoaxial resonant frequencies predicted by t…
Bloch-like surface waves associated with a quasiperiodic structure are observed for the first time in a classic wave propagation experiment which consists of pulse propagation with a shallow fluid covering a quasiperiodically drilled bottom. We show that a transversal pulse propagates as a plane wave with quasiperiodi…
The influence of substrate induced coupling on plasmon excitations is probed by means of visible and near-infrared extinction microspectroscopy on various arrays of gold oblate spheroidal particles deposited onto a 20-nm-thick gold film. At zero incidence angle and for an interparticle spacing smaller than 250 nm, the…
We present a theoretical investigation of the magnetic field dependence of the longitudinal ($T_1$) and transverse ($T_2$) spin relaxation times of conduction band electrons in n-type III-V semiconductors. In particular, we find that the interplay between the Dyakonov-Perel process and an additional spin relaxation ch…
We present a quantitative analysis of the phonon line shapes obtained by neutron inelastic scattering methods in the relaxor ferroelectric $\mathrm{Pb}({\mathrm{Mg}}_{1/3}{\mathrm{Nb}}_{2/3}){\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ (PMN). Differences in the shapes and apparent positions of the transverse acoustic-- (TA) and transverse optic…
Inelastic neutron scattering measurements of the relaxor ferroelectric ${\mathrm{PbMg}}_{1/3}{\mathrm{Nb}}_{2/3}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ (PMN) in the temperature range $490\mathrm{K}<T<880\mathrm{K}$ directly observe the soft mode (SM) associated with the Curie-Weiss behavior of the dielectric constant $\ensuremath{\va…
Although the formalism that allows the calculation of alloy thermodynamic properties from first-principles has been known for decades, its practical implementation has so far remained a tedious process. The Alloy Theoretic Automated Toolkit (ATAT) drastically simplifies this procedure by implementing decision rules ba…
