Twin boundary spacing (TBS) plays a significant role in the yield behaviour of twinned nanowires (NWs). However, few studies have shown an overall view of the effects on the mechanical response of twinned silver NWs under tensile loading. In this article, the mechanical properties of 〈111〉-oriented NWs with different…

In this work, the application of hyperbranched polyglycerol as a performance additive for water-based printing inks is demonstrated. The hyperbranched polyglycerol, (BPG), was synthesized through anionic ring-opening polymerization from glycidol using 1-butanol as the starting material. The branched structure of BPG i…

Accurate quantum chemical calculations on real-world magnetic systems are challenging, the inclusion of electron correlation being the bottleneck of such task. One method proposed to overcome this difficulty is the embedded fragment approach. It tackles a chemical problem by dividing it into small fragments, which are…
