We describe a new method for the preparation of fluorescent inorganic-nanoparticle composite microgels. Copolymer microgels with functional pendant groups were transferred viadialysis into tetrahydrofuran (THF) solution and mixed with colloidal solutions of semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots, QDs). CdSe QDs stab…

Determination of the material parameters is one of the key challenges of numerical fire simulation attempting to predict, rather than prescribe the heat release rate. In this work, we use common fire simulation software and genetic algorithms to estimate the kinetic reaction parameters for wood components, birch wood,…

AZ31 and AZ61 Mg alloys were multi directionally forged (MDFed) during decreasing temperature from 623 K to 423 K to cumulative strain of ΣΔε=4.8 by Δε=0.8 pass strain at a strain rate of 3×10−3 s−1. In both Mg alloys, the average grain size gradually decreased with increasing cumulative strain. After straining to ΣΔε…

We give evidence that particles interacting via the simple, radially symmetric square-shoulder potential can self-organise in highly complex, low-symmetry lattices, thereby forming clusters, columns, or lamellae; only at high pressure are compact, high-symmetry structures observed. Our search for these ordered equilib…

Metal release rates from stainless steel grade 316L were investigated in artificial lysosomal fluid (ALF), simulating a human inflammatory cell response. The main focus was placed on release rates of main alloying elements using graphite furnace atomic absorption spectroscopy, and changes in surface oxide composition…

The scope and limitations of microwave heating as a tool for insertion of Group 10 metals into meso-tetraphenyl-porphyrin, -porpholactone, and -2,3-dihydroxychlorin derivatives are discussed. In some cases it is possible to reduce reaction times dramatically while obtaining good yields of the metallated products while…

By narrowing the size distribution of the polymer acid template, polyaniline (PANI) that is subsequently template synthesized exhibits enhanced conductivity. We used poly(2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid), PAAMPSA, as the polymer acid and it was synthesized by both conventional free-radical polymerization…
