A chiral catalyst from the ligand 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) anchored to the inner walls of the mesoporous support MCM-41 and co-ordinated to PdII has been shown to exhibit a degree of regioselectivity and enantiomeric excess, in the allylic amination of cinnamyl acetate, which is far superior to that…
After a brief introduction to the dynamics of supercooled liquids, we discuss some of the advantages and drawbacks of computer simulations of such systems. Subsequently we present the results of computer simulations in which the dynamics of a fragile glass former, a binary Lennard-Jones system, is compared to that of…
The anticancer drug, adriamycin (ADR), was incorporated by physical entrapment into polymeric micelles for selective delivery to a murine solid tumor colon adenocarcinoma 26 (C 26). In vivo antitumor activity of ADR was greatly enhanced by this incorporation into polymeric micelles. Using one polymeric micelle deliver…
This paper describes the development of a computer model for simulating the transient operation of a tubular solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). The model includes the electrochemical, thermal, and mass flow elements that affect SOFC electrical output. The electrochemical and thermal parts of the model were developed and ve…
Intercalation and supramolecular assembly of layered inorganic compounds represents an attractive route to polyurethane nanocomposites (see Figure for a schematic representation). The authors used a layered silicate, synthetic fluoromica, as the inorganic compound in this study. The nanocomposites are reinforced by me…
Highlights of new findings in electron transfer studies, in which elegant synthetic model systems were used to address important fundamental questions, are briefly described. The selected examples include: (i) efficient long distance electron transfer mediated by hydrogen bonds; (ii) energy and electron transfer throu…
The influence of transition element (TE) doping on the magnetotransport properties of ${\mathrm{La}}_{0.7}{\mathrm{Ca}}_{0.3}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ is studied for the entire transition element series ($\mathrm{T}\mathrm{E}=\mathrm{C}\mathrm{r},$ Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn) for a fixed (5% at Mn sites) dopant concentration. The s…
Raman scattering studies of Nd-modified lead titanate ${\mathrm{Pb}}_{1\ensuremath{-}3y/2}{\mathrm{Nd}}_{y}{\mathrm{TiO}}_{3}$ (PNT), $y=0.02,$ 0.10, and $\mathrm{Pb}({\mathrm{Zr}}_{x}{\mathrm{Ti}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}){\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ (PZT), $x=0.10,0.20,$ bulk ceramics were made at ambient temperatures between 4.2 an…
Reoxidation of Cu0 (3.1 wt%) in ZSM-5 (nSi/nAl=20) produced by over-exchange (nCu/nAl=0.75) and a subsequent reduction with H2 (773 K, 30 min) was studied in an Ar stream using FTIR spectroscopy. Above 573 K, the decrease in the intensity of the OH stretching band at 3611 cm-1 raised the consideration that some Cu0 at…
We present a simplified model of shear thickening in concentrated colloids. The key idea of the model is that the trajectories of close approaching particles be simultaneously consistent with both the stress and the shear rate of the suspension. The weak shear thickening of Brownian hard spheres is reproduced. For coa…
The drying of wet Tetraethoxysilane-derived gels was studied by means of thermogravimetric analysis as a function of the time, from the instant when the samples were placed into a pre-heated oven, kept at 70, 83 and 100 °C. The precursor sol of the gel was obtained by sono-hydrolysis of the Tetraethoxysilane under aci…
Cubic Y zeolite were successfully synthesized using microwave heating for 18 - 25 min, whereas 10 - 50 h are required by hydrothermal heating technique depending upon the lattice Si/Al ratio. To this end, we used a commercial microwave oven modified in order to provide pulsed microwave pumping on the synthesis mixture…
Eu3+ doped bulk monoliths and thin films were obtained by sol-gel methods in the ZrO2, SiO2 and SiO2-TiO2 systems. Eu3+ 5D0 ® 7FJ emission and decay time characteristics were measured during the entire experimental preparation route from the initial sol to the final xerogels. The crystalline phases identified were tet…
This paper describes the determination of the thermal diffusivity of LiKSO4 crystals using the photoacoustic phase lag method, in the 77 K to 300 K temperature interval. This method is quite simple and fast and when it is coupled to a specially designed apparatus, that includes a resonant photoacoustic cell, allows fo…
Off-stoichiometric NiZn ferrite was obtained by hydrothermal process and compacted in torus form under different pressures. Two samples A1 and A2 - cobalt doped (0.5 %) were sintered at 1573 K in air atmosphere during 3 h. The magnetic properties were studied by vibrating sample magnetometry, Mössbauer spectroscopy an…
Commercialization of large-area electrochromic glazing is reviewed with respect to device configuration and materials employed. Device configurations including electrochromic solutions and solid state electrochromic layers are discussed as well as novel user-controlled photochromic and gasochromic devices.
Bottle grade virgin PET (polyethylene terephthalate) resin was investigated through five consecutive injection molding steps to simulate recycling cycles. Tests were carried out after each recycling to evaluate degradation, crystallinity (by density and Differential Scanning Calorimetry-DSC measurements), hardness, an…
Yttria stabilized zirconia sintered by silicate glass phase with addition of ytterbium or gadolinium was investigated. The grain growth rate was found to be higher in the gadolinium doped samples. The glass phase of the ytterbium doped sample showed partial crystallization on cooling. Grain conductivity was found to b…
This work describes an alternative method for the preparation of ferroelectric thin films based on pre-calcination of oxides, to be used as precursor material for a solution preparation. In order to show the viability of the proposed method, PbZr0.53Ti0.47O3 and Bi4Ti3O12 thin films were prepared on fused quartz and S…
