Chitosan-based nanocomposites (NCs) at different modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) loadings were produced by solvent casting method. The effective dispersion of the MWCNT in polymer matrix is an important factor while making its NCs. The MWCNTs intrinsically tend to bundle and/or aggregate. For this reaso…

We describe the synthesis, characterization, and select properties of a novel polyurethane (PU) prepared using a new polyisobutylene diol, HO-CH2CH2-S-PIB-S-CH2CH2-OH, soft segment and conventional hard segments. The diol is synthesized by terminal functionalization of ally-telechelic PIB followed by low-cost thiol-en…

Materials with bioinspired superhydrophobic properties are highly desirable for many potential applications. Here, nine novel monomers derived from indole are synthesized to obtain these properties by electropolymerization. These monomers differ by the length (C4F9, C6F13 and C8F17) and the position (4-, 5- and 6-posi…

Abstract The hydrogels of reduced graphene oxide (rGOHGs) have been synthesized through treating GO with various concentrations of sodium hypophosphite (NaH2PO2) under hydrothermal condition. The results reveal that the structure of rGOHGs changes along with the increase of the concentration of NaH2PO2. The rGO sheets…

We report the correlation between thermoelectric properties and electronic band structure of thermoelectric Heusler alloy Fe2V1-xTixGa by comparing experimental measurements with theoretical calculations. The electrical resistivity data show that the semiconducting-like behavior of pure Fe2VGa is transformed to a more…

Azopeptides possess an imino urea as an amino amide surrogate in the sequence. Azopeptides were synthesized by oxidation of aza-glycine residues and employed in pericyclic chemistry. Diels-Alder cyclizations and Alder-ene reactions on azopeptides enabled construction of constrained aza-pipecolyl and reactive aza-allyl…

In the present work, a different green coupling agent (GCA) was developed from virgin coconut oil (GCA-C). The GCA-C were a kind of glycidyl fatty acid ester which are reactive to natural filler. A comparison between GCA made from palm oil (GCA-P) and coconut oil (GCA-C) was studied. The results indicated the tensile…

The fundamental sheet conductance of graphene can be directly related to the product of its absorption coefficient, thickness and refractive index. The same can be done for graphene's fundamental opacity if the so-called thin-film limit is considered. Here, we test mathematically and experimentally the validity of thi…

The use of immobilized enzymes is mandatory for the easy separation of the enzyme, the unreacted substrates, and the obtained products to allow repeated enzymatic assays without cumbersome purification steps. The immobilization procedure is however critical to obtain a high fraction of active enzyme. In this article,…

We demonstrate that spatial confinement can be used to control the orientational and translational order of cubic nanoparticles. For this purpose we have combined X-ray scattering and scanning electron microscopy to study the ordering of iron oxide nanocubes that have self-assembled from toluene-based dispersions in n…
