We report on the use of a chemical vapor deposition to nanocast ordered mesoporous carbon monoliths using mesoporous silica monoliths as template. The size and shape of the silica monolith template are well retained in the carbon resulting in a mechanically robust mesoporous carbon monolith. A relatively high level of…

The purpose of this study was to prepare ultrafine beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) powder via antisolvent precipitation without any surfactants. Various solvents were screened to determine the suitable system for optimum processing while deionized water was kept as the antisolvent. Methanol was selected as the solve…

The role of external ionic strength in diatom biosilica formation was assessed by monitoring the nanostructural changes in the biosilica of the two marine diatom species Thalassiosira punctigera and Thalassiosira weissflogii that was obtained from cultures grown at two distinct salinities. Using physicochemical method…

Abstract A facile one‐step process for the fabrication of hybrid ZnO–dye hollow spheres with novel optical properties has been discovered. Addition of Evans blue (EB) dye to cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) results in the formation of CTAB‐EB micelles through an ionic self‐assembly process, and the resulting mate…

High-energy-resolution $\mathrm{C}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}1s$ photoelectron spectra of graphite were measured at excitation energies of 340, 870, 5950, and $7940\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{eV}$ using synchrotron radiation. On increasing the excitation energy, i.e., increasing kinetic energy of the photoelect…

The proposed use of nanocapsules in drug delivery systems promises many advantages over current procedures. The major advantage is the potential for patients to have significantly reduced side effects from taking the drug, especially for highly toxic drugs such as those used for cancer treatments. Nanotubes have been…

Surface transfer doping is demonstrated on hydrogenated diamond (100) by the electron acceptor, tetrafluoro-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4-TCNQ). Synchrotron-based photoemission spectroscopy reveals that electrons are transferred from diamond to adsorbed F4-TCNQ, leaving a diamond surface p-type doped with a high areal…

The titanocene-catalyzed dehydrocoupling of the adduct Me 2 NH·BH 3 has been investigated by density functional theory (B3LYP). Unlike the thermal dehydrogenation of ammonia−borane, which was previously found to occur via a concerted mechanism, such a catalytic dehydrogenation of Me 2 NH·BH 3 has been found to be a st…

We present a complete analysis of the structure of polyethylene (PE) nanoparticles synthesized and stabilized in water under very mild conditions (15 degrees C, 40 atm) by a nickel-catalyzed polymerization in aqueous solution. Combining cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) with X-ray scattering, we de…

Abstract The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of glycerol contents on physical properties of cassava starch films. The films were prepared from film‐forming solutions (FFS) with 2g cassava starch/100g water and 0, 15, 30 and 45g glycerol/100g starch, and were analysed to determine its mechanical properti…

Abstract Crystallization kinetics of the biodegradable and fast crystallizing poly(butylene succinate) is studied, under both isothermal and non‐isothermal conditions. For the isothermal process at temperatures from 75 to 95 °C it is found that the Avrami model successfully describes the transformation kinetics. The n…

The displacement field in highly non uniformly strained crystals is obtained by addition of constraints to an iterative phase retrieval algorithm. These constraints include direct space density uniformity and also constraints to the sign and derivatives of the different components of the displacement field. This algor…

(Coumarin-4-yl)methyl esters (CM-A) are caged compounds that, upon excitation, release the masked biologically active acid HA and the highly fluorescent (coumarin-4-yl)methyl alcohol CM-OH very rapidly and in part with high efficiency. The results of photostationary and time-resolved investigations of 25 CM-A esters a…

The surface chemistry of nanoparticles can be modified so that these particles behave like surfactants and localize at interfaces between two fluids. We demonstrate that small volume fractions phi(P) of such surfactant nanoparticles added to lamellar diblock copolymers lead initially to a decrease in lamellar thicknes…

We report the rectifying effect of a constant-wave radio frequency (RF) current by a magnetic domain wall (DW) on a single-layered ferromagnetic wire. A direct-current (DC) voltage is generated by the spin torque diode effect, which is a consequence of magnetoresistance oscillation due to the resonant spin wave excita…
