Three structurally variant alkyl-substituted porphyrins [zinc(II) 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octa- n -decylporphyrin 2, metal(II) meso -5,10,15,20-tetra- n -undecylporphyrin 3 (metal = cobalt, copper, palladium, and zinc), and zinc(II) meso -5,10,15,20-tetrakis(phenoxy- n -nonyl)porphyrin 4] exist as photoconductive insulato…
The mechanical properties of recycled low-density polyethylene/wood flour (LDPE/WF) composites are improved when a maleated triblock copolymer styrene–ethylene/butylene–styrene (SEBS–MA) is added as a compatibilizer. The composites' tensile strength reached a maximum level with 4 wt % SEBS–MA content. The compatibiliz…
Strontium clusters of size 2 to 20 atoms have been studied within the local density approximation using the ab-initio molecular dynamics method with a plane wave basis in which the s and p electron wavefunctions are well represented. The resulting low lying isomers are optimized using a full-potential linear muffin ti…
A newly developed class of paraffin-like organomagadiite intercalates, interlayered by primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary onium ions, has been used to form elastomeric polymer-layered silicate nanocomposites by in situ polymerization during the thermoset process. Depending on the nature of the onium ions, in…
A new building block is constructed with one pyridine and two kinetically inert complexed Pd(II) ions, for the controlled assembly of metallodendrimers following either a convergent or a divergent route. The double pincer ligand 8 was cyclopalladated with Pd[CH 3 CN] 4 (BF 4 ) 2 and subsequently converted into the neu…
The conductance of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) was found to be quantized. The experimental method involved measuring the conductance of nanotubes by replacing the tip of a scanning probe microscope with a nanotube fiber, which could be lowered into a liquid metal to establish a gentle electrical contact with…
AgBr microcrystals that have been treated with reducing agents to form small silver clusters on their surface have been examined with low-temperature optical and optically detected magnetic resonance methods. These investigations have indicated that these treatments produce two closely related Ag clusters that are spe…

The chemical processes involved in the reactions between novolac resins, furfuryl alcohol (FA), and hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) have been studied by solid-state NMR spectroscopy. A highly cross-linked homogeneous network which incorporates both novolac and furan entities is formed. The initial reaction below 90 °C i…
Photoinduced expansion and contraction response in monolayers consisting of a poly(vinyl alcohol) derivative having an azobenzene (Az) side chain at the air−water interface was investigated in detail by surface potential measurements, Brewster angle microscopy (BAM), UV−visible absorption spectroscopy, and the macrosc…
The dehydrogenation of ethanol has been studied over a series of Cu/SiO 2 catalysts modified with alkaline-earth oxide (Cu−MO/SiO 2, M = Mg, Ca, Sr, and Ba). The additive effects of alkaline-earth oxides on copper catalysts were examined by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, temperature-programmed reduct…
A thin plate or slab, prepared so that opposite faces have different surface stresses, will bend as a result of the stress difference. We have developed a classical molecular dynamics (MD) formulation where (similar in spirit to constant-pressure MD) the curvature of the slab enters as an additional dynamical degree o…
Kramers–Kronig analysis for parallel electron energy loss spectroscopy (PEELS) data is developed as a software package. When used with a JEOL 4000EX high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) operating at 100 keV this allows us to obtain the dielectric function of relatively wide band gap materials with…
A novel triterpene, viburgenin (1), has been isolated from an extract of the ripe fruit rinds of Rudgea viburnioides, together with the known saponins, arjunglucoside I and trachelosperosides B-1 and E-1, and the triterpenes trachelosperogenin B (2) and arjungenin. Compound 2 was previously obtained as a product from…
A tight-band model is employed for the e2g-orbitals in manganites.It is shown that a large intraatomic Hund's coupling, JH and the resulting double-exchange mechanism lead to antiferromagnetic ordering along one of the cubic axis stabilized by the cooperative JT effect which further decreases the band energy of electr…
Uniform magnetic membranes are obtained from microfibrillar bacterial cellulose suspensions loaded with nanosized ferrites (mainly magnetite). The cellulose microfibrils act as a nucleation site for the growing ferrites, as clearly visible by trasmission electron microscopy.
The 2,2'-dipyridyl adducts of two europium beta-diketonate complexes, Eu(btfa)(3).bipy [btfa = 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-phenyl-2,4-butanedione, bipy = 2,2'-dipyridyl] and Eu(bzac)(3).bipy [bzac = 1-phenyl-2,4-butanedione], have been prepared. The crystal structure of the former with chemical formula EuC(40)H(26)O(6)N(2)F(9)…
Assemblies of polymer beads were used as templates to produce macroporous membranes of polymers and ceramics. These membranes consist of spherical pores whose sizes could be precisely controlled in the range from ∼0.2 to ∼3 μm. The pores are interconnected such that pores (as many as 108/cm2) are completely exposed on…
A detailed numerical and experimental study of the ordering of the low temperature tetragonal phase of CuAu is presented. The numerical simulations are based on a coarse-grained free energy derived from electronic structure calculations of CuAu, while the experimental results are obtained from in situ x-ray scattering…
The preparation and chemical reactivity of Ag@SiO 2 particles have been investigated using UV−vis spectroscopy, laser Doppler electrophoresis, and electron microscopy. The factors governing the deposition of silica onto silane-primed silver particles have been investigated and the deposition conditions (pH and reagent…
