Optical analysis of roughness operating on the principle of chromatic aberration and dynamic wetting measurements have been used to investigate the surface properties of polyester fabrics with different woven structures. The results revealed differences in the two basic types of weave — plain and twill — with respect…

It is important to understand the process of evaporation and steam transfer through firefighter protective clothing in order to be able to prevent steam burns. As humidity sensors are too slow to measure fast changes of humidity inside the clothing layers, temperature changes were used to analyze the evaporation of mo…

The crystallization behavior and the crystalline structure of nylon6-clay nanocomposites are investigated with regard to the processing conditions and thermal treatment. Microextruded bulk samples as well as blown films are under concern. The often reported nucleating effect of the clay particles is shown to strongly…

Tiopronin (N-(2-mercaptopropionyl)glycine)-protected gold nanoparticles (TPAu) were cross-linked to collagen via EDC (1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl) carbodiimide) coupling. On average, each TPAu forms eight amide bonds with collagen lysine moieties. The resulting gels were studied with environmental SEM, TEM, micr…

A new atomic layer deposition (ALD) process was applied for the homogeneous coating of carbon nanotubes with vanadium oxide. It permits the coating of the inner and outer surface with a highly conformal film of controllable thickness and, hence, the production of high surface area hybrid materials at a so far unpreced…

Abstract In this work we investigated correlations between the internal microstructure and sample size (lateral as well as thickness) of mesoscopic, tens of nanometer thick graphite (multigraphene) samples and the temperature ( T ) and field ( B ) dependence of their electrical resistivity ρ ( T , B ). Low energy tran…

Abstract Two donor‐acceptor systems, 4,7‐di‐2‐thienyl‐2,1,3‐benzoselenadiazole (TSeT) and 4,7‐di‐2,3‐dihydrothieno[3,4‐ b ][1,4]dioxin‐5‐yl‐2,1,3‐benzoselenadiazole (ESeE) are synthesized and electropolymerized to give polymers PTSeT and PESeE, respectively. One of the polymers, PTSeT, is blue‐green in the neutral sta…

A simple statistical mechanical approach for studying multilayer adsorption of interacting polyatomic adsorbates (k-mers) has been presented. The new theoretical framework has been developed on a generalization in the spirit of the lattice-gas model and the classical Bragg-Williams (BWA) and quasi-chemical (QCA) appro…

By performing density-functional calculations, we have investigated the electronic bandgap of single epitaxial and multiepitaxial graphene layers on SiC. The calculations show that a defect-free graphene layer above the carbon buffer layer is very flat and no bandgap is found in the Dirac bands. By introducing a finit…

Studies relating the magnesium (Mg) content of calcified skeletons to temperature often report unexplained deviations from the signature expected for inorganically grown calcite. These "vital effects" are believed to have biological origins, but mechanistic bases for measured offsets remain unclear. We show that a sim…

Cellulose has a complex, multi-level supermolecular architecture. This natural polymer is built from superfine fibrils having diameters in the nano scale, and each such nanofibril contains ordered nanocrystallites and low-ordered nano-domains. In this review, the nano-structure of cellulose and its influence on variou…

The use of tubular halloysite clay as a nanotemplate for layer-by-layer (LbL) shell assembly and its utilization for controlled release of drug macromolecules are studied. The LbL nanoshell allowed additional control for the sustained release of drug loaded halloysite tubes. The number of polymeric layers in the shell…

The ease of fabricating high quality photonic crystals from porous silicon and its biocompatibility have inspired the conception of various biosensing schemes using this material. However, the instability of porous silicon has significantly slowed progress in this area. Here we discuss the potential of different porou…

In this work we study the multilayer adsorption of polyatomic species on homogeneous and heterogeneous bivariate surfaces. A new approximate analytic isotherm is obtained and validated by comparing with Monte Carlo simulation. Then, we use the well-known Brunauer-Emmet-Teller's (BET) approach to analyze these isotherm…

We report the experimental observation of subband formation in graphene nanoribbons, where conductance becomes quantized due to the lateral quantum confinement. We show that this quantization in graphene nanoribbons can be observed at temperatures as high as 80 K and channel lengths as long as $1.7\text{ }\ensuremath{…

Abstract A new concept is proposed to explain the formation of spherical boron nitride (BN) nanoparticles synthesized by the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reaction of trimethoxyborane (B(OMe) 3 ) with ammonia. The intermediate phases formed during the CVD under different reaction conditions are analyzed by X‐ray dif…
