Condensations of 1-methyl and 1-phenyl-2,4-pyrroledicarbaldehydes with a tripyrrane in TFA-dichloromethane, followed by oxidation with aqueous FeCl(3), gave novel cross-conjugated meso-unsubstituted N-confused porphyrins (NCPs; 12). These porphyrin analogues showed significant diatropic ring currents that were enhance…

The molten salt waste from the pyroprocess is one of the problematic wastes to directly apply a conventional process such as vitrification or ceramization. This study suggested a novel method using a reactive material for metal chlorides at a molten temperature of salt waste, and then converting them into manageable p…

A new concept in speciation analysis based on the diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) technique is described. By use of two sets of DGT devices, one set with perfluorosulfonated ionomer (Nafion) diffusive membranes and the other with polyacrylamide, anionic and uncharged analytes can be fractionated on the basis o…

Gold nanorods with longitudinal surface plasmon resonance wavelengths ranging from 544 to 840 nm have been coated with silica at varying thicknesses. Silica-coated Au nanorods are vitreophilic, and mesostructured composite thin films have thereafter been prepared by dispersing silica-coated Au nanorods in the silica p…

Structural foams offer numerous advantages over their solid counterparts, including greater geometrical accuracy, the absence of sink marks on the final product’s surface, lower weight (and, by extension, the need for less material), and a higher stiffness-to-weight ratio. The possibility of achieving a suitable void…

Transparent glass ceramics containing hexagonal GdF 3 nanocrystals were fabricated by melt-quenching and subsequent heating of glass with composition of 44SiO 2 −28Al 2 O 3 −17NaF−11GdF 3 . The GdF 3 nanocrystals with mean size of 6 nm were precipitated during quenching of the melt. Increasing the heating temperature…
