To tailor functional nanomaterials, the co-assembly of self-assembling dyes in a homogeneous way would be a promising approach because the electronic properties can be tuned by the mixing ratio. Although porphyrins are important supramolecular building blocks with unique optical properties, a homogeneously mixed J-agg…

Abstract Dihydroxyl soybean oil (DSO) has shown potential as a tackifier for pressure‐sensitive adhesive (PSA) applications, and perchloric acid was used previously as a catalyst to open the oxirane rings of epoxidized soybean oils (ESO) when we prepared DSO and PSA. Phosphoric acid is a more eco‐friendly catalyst tha…

The effect of alloying elements on the threshold stress for superplasticity was investigated using two binary solid solutions, namely, Mg–Al and Mg–Y alloys. Both alloys exhibited superplasticity, and in spite of the absence of fine particles showed threshold-stress-like behavior. Different origins were suggested for…
