The synthesis of new metallophthalocyanine-oligonucleotide conjugates is reported. These conjugates can cause sequence-specific photosensitized or catalytic oxidation of DNA by molecular oxygen.
In this article the relation between the morphology and macroscopic mechanical properties, i.e., stiffness and strength, of blends of polypropylene (PP) and polystyrene (PS) within the framework of micromechanics of composite materials was studied. Test results on tensile properties of immiscible PP/PS blends showed t…
High strain rate mechanical testing on fully hardened AISI D2 tool steel (at 62 HRc) was performed utilizing the Compressive Split Hopkinson Bar technique (CSHB) incorporating a punching shear strain state. The high strain rate conditions were comparable to those encountered in machining processes, with shear strain r…
[Rh 6 (CO) 16 ] was prepared on the surface of TiO 2 (calcined at 200 or 400 °C) by deposition from n -hexane solution and by a surface-mediated synthesis from TiO 2 -supported [Rh(CO) 2 (acac)] in the presence of CO at 1 atm and 100 °C. The cluster preparation and subsequent decarbonylation by treatment in He or H 2…
Direct precipitation of metal oxides from high boiling point organic solvents presents an alternative to wholly aqueous hydrothermal material synthesis routes. In the current study, reaction conditions to control particle size and shape of α-alumina, precipitated from 1,4-butanediol solutions are described. Synthesis…
We consider the Cahn-Hilliard equation-a fourth-order, nonlinear parabolic diffusion equation describing phase separation of a binary alloy which is quenched below a critical temperature. The occurrence of two phases is due to a nonconvex double well free energy. The evolution initially leads to a very fine microstruc…
The photophysical properties and the excitation energy transfer (EET) process of a series of first generation dendrimers having a rigid tetrahedral core and different numbers of peryleneimide chromophores at the rim were investigated by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy in toluene. It was shown…
The reaction of methanol with a preoxidized Cu(100) surface in the temperature range of 90−200 K has been studied with reflection−absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS). Methanol is found to form methoxy (CH 3 O) at or below 90 K. The OH stretch vibration at 3550 cm -1 of a surface hydroxyl group (OH(ad)) appears as…
Methods for measuring the viscosity coefficients of the best known type of anisotropic fluid, nematic liquid crystals (NLCs), are reviewed. The hydrodynamic Leslie – Ericksen – Parodi theory is described in brief, which predicts five independent viscosity coefficients for a NLC. The feature that distinguishes NLCs fro…

Mixtures of polyols (glycerol, propylene glycol, glucose) and water were emulsified in oil (isopropyl myristate (IPM), medium chain triglycerides (MCT), long chain triglycerides (LCT), and d-limonene) under elevated pressures and homogenization, in the presence of polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR), glycerol monoolea…
Model platinum catalysts have been designed to study the platinum−solvent interface in situ using attenuated total reflection (ATR) infrared spectroscopy. Pt and Pt/Al 2 O 3 thin films were evaporated on a Ge internal reflection element (IRE) and characterized by XRD, XPS, AFM, STM, and IR spectroscopy. Changes within…
Kinetic theory in regards to the basic understanding of reaction order as it relates to polymer degradation is discussed. This new theory is then tested by determining the kinetic parameters for dehydrochlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) using thermogravimetric analysis. Four different mechanisms of degradation were dedu…
Superconducting magnesium diboride films with Tc0 ~ 24 K and sharp transition \~ 1 K were successfully prepared on silicon substrates by pulsed laser deposition from a stoichiometric MgB2 target. Contrary to previous reports, anneals at 630 degree and a background of 2x10^(-4) torr Ar/4%H2 were performed without the r…

Dendrimers are a new class of polymeric materials. They are highly branched, monodisperse macromolecules. The structure of these materials has a great impact on their physical and chemical properties. As a result of their unique behaviour dendrimers are suitable for a wide range of biomedical and industrial applicatio…
Interfacial electron transfer (ET) between semiconductor nanomaterials and molecular adsorbates is an important fundamental process that is relevant to applications of these materials. Using femtosecond midinfrared spectroscopy, we have simultaneously measured the dynamics of injected electrons and adsorbates by direc…
In this feature article, the methods of obtaining various mesostructures made of nanocrystals are described. With silver and silver sulfide, the nanocrystals are able to self organize in 2D and 3D super lattices to form “supra” crystals. With cobalt and ferrites nanocrystals, it has been possible to make ribbons, dots…
Abstract Starlike block copolymers of Nylon‐6 and polyurethane were synthesized using ε‐caprolactam as a monomer, caprolactam magnesium bromide as a catalyst, and a star prepolymer of polyurethane. These copolymers were compared with the linear block copolymers of Nylon‐6 and polyurethane. Such copolymers were obtaine…
Abstract Transesterification of polymer blends containing polyesters is often utilized to improve the interfacial adhesion and mechanical properties of a phase‐separated blend. However, in some circumstances, the transesterification can also modify the morphology (crystallinity or liquid crystallinity) of the blend co…
