This research was aimed to study the influence of acetic acid concentration and extraction temperature on physical and chemical properties of pigskin gelatin. The experiment used Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with two factors and three replicates of treatment. The first factor was concentration of acetic acid sol…
Rational design of improved transition metal based materials mostly relies on their electronic structure descriptors, typically estimated by density functional theory and so unduly affected by self-interaction or static correlation errors. Here we show for all 30 transition metals that original or width-corrected d-ba…
Graphene papers facilely fabricated in non-stick frying pans were demonstrated to possess great potential in flexible and robust all-solid supercapacitors.
Optical carbon dioxide sensors based on novel self-referenced NIR colorimetric dihydroxy-aza-BODIPY dyes are presented. They possess tunable dynamic ranges and unmatched photostability.
The molecular assembly and subsequent nucleation of para-amino benzoic acid (PABA) from ethanolic solutions is probed using a multi-scale and multi-technique approach. This is applied by examining and interrelating information regarding the molecular, solution-state, cluster, solid-state and surface structures to unde…
The exceptional charge-transport, mechanical, and barrier properties of graphene are well known. High-quality films of single-layer graphene produced over large areas, however, are extremely expensive. The high cost of graphene precludes its use in industries-such as transparent electrodes and flexible packaging-that…
Despite extensive studies of transition metal (TM) clusters supported on ceria (CeO2), fundamental issues such as the role of the TM atoms in the change in the oxidation state of Ce atoms are still not well understood. In this work, we report a theoretical investigation based on static and ab initio molecular dynamics…
With an increasing number of patients requiring valve replacements, there is heightened interest in advancing heart valve tissue engineering (HVTE) to provide solutions to the many limitations of current surgical treatments. A variety of materials have been developed as scaffolds for HVTE including natural polymers, s…
The search for organic crystals with highly efficient nonlinear optical (NLO) properties with a high surface laser damage threshold (LDT) has become more of a demand in the frontier areas of optical switching and communications applications.
Images of water droplets on (a) pristine wood, (b) wood covered with composite particles, (c) wood modified with stearic acid, and (d) superhydrophobic wood.
This paper highlights an intimate relationship among RH levels, dangling bonds passivation, run-in periods, transfer films formation and tribological behaviors.
A solid oxide electrolysis cell with novel asymmetric-porous structured electrodes has been fabricated by freeze-drying tape-casting and impregnation methods. The straight channel-like pores in the porous electrode facilitate mass transport while the nano- or sub-micron-sized catalysts promote the electrode electroche…
We successfully tailor the properties of a well-known commercial lamp with the Zn <sub>2</sub> SiO <sub>4</sub> :Mn <sup>2+</sup> phosphor as a novel, highly efficient, long-lasting green phosphor by using the co-doping method.
We have optimized the thermoelectric material Mg <sub>2</sub> Si <sub>0.8</sub> Sn <sub>0.2</sub> and analyzed the electronic transport employing a single parabolic band model.
We present a comprehensive Raman scattering study of monolayer MoS2 with increasing laser excitation energies ranging from the near-infrared to the deep-ultraviolet. The Raman scattering intensities from the second-order phonon modes are revealed to be enhanced anomalously by only the ultraviolet excitation wavelength…
The effects of cellulose I and cellulose II on the microfibrillation process and final properties of MFC were studied.
We explore the dynamics of blue emission from dodecylamine and ammonia functionalized silicon nanocrystals (Si NCs) with average diameters of ∼3 and ∼6 nm using time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) spectroscopy. The Si NCs exhibit nanosecond PL decay dynamics that is independent of NC size and uniform across the emi…
A Fe <sub>3</sub> C/graphitic carbon (Fe <sub>3</sub> C/GC) composite has been synthesized by a facile route. It shows excellent electromagnetic absorption property in the microwave frequency range C-band (4–8 GHz), indicating its potential application in aerospace fields.
Thermoresponsive-hydrophobic copolymer brushes were prepared on porous monolithic silica rods through surface initiated ATRP. The monolithic silica can separate biomolecules with high resolution and in short analysis times.
Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) filled with glass dust (GD), glass fiber (GF), OMMT, and melamine cyanurate (MCA) was developed as a ceramifiable flame-retardant polymer composite for cables and insulated wires.
