A π-electron rich supramolecular polymer as an efficient fluorescent sensor for electron deficient nitroaromatic explosives has been synthesized, and the role of H-bonding in dramatic amplification of sensitivity/fluorescence quenching efficiency in the solid state has been established.
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is one of the major obstacles for successful chemotherapy in cancer. One of the effective approaches to overcome MDR is to use nanoparticle-mediated drug delivery to increase drug accumulation in drug resistant cancer cells. In this work, we first report that the performance and mechanism of…
Platelike microcrystals of N-3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene-3-nitroaniline repeatedly bend and straighten upon alternate irradiation with UV and visible light. The mechanism of bending was elucidated by X-ray crystallographic analyses before and after photoirradiation.
Over the past two decades, cancer has ascended to become the number one or two cause of death in many nations worldwide. Encapsulation of anticancer drugs within nanocarriers that selectively target diseased cells promises to increase the effectiveness of conventional chemotherapy and decrease its side effects. Nanopa…
We study the behaviour of Janus particles at an oil–water interface. Amphiphilic Janus particles exhibit attractive interactions at the fluid–fluid interface. The attractive interactions are likely due to the pinning of contact line around the diffuse boundary between the two hemispheres. The undulation of the three-p…
New compounds containing triphenylamine-anthrylenevinylene and tetraphenylethene moieties are synthesized by the Wittig–Horner reaction. The compounds exhibit weak emission in good solvents, but strong fluorescence in aggregates or in the solid state, indicating that they are aggregation-induced emission enhancement c…
Herein, by taking advantage of click chemistry, we propose a general and effective methodology to covalently functionalize graphene oxide sheets (GOSs) with block copolymers, namely poly(styrene-b-ethylene-co-butylene-b-styrene) (SEBS) triblock copolymers as an example in this study. The covalent attachment of SEBS to…
Herein we report a rapid, chemical free and low temperature method for high throughput production of graphene by exfoliation of graphite oxide using focused solar radiation. The simple method of preparation, easy scalability, cost effectiveness and high electrical conductivity (1.5 × 103 S m−1) of solar graphene hold…
The synthesis of a porous organic polymer (POP) containing free-base porphyrin subunits has been accomplished by the condensation of a bis(phthalic acid)porphyrin with tetra(4-aminophenyl)methane. Metallation by post-synthesis modification affords microporous materials incorporating either Fe or Mn(porphyrins) that ha…
Some organic compounds gelate particular solvents by forming a network of anisotropic fibres. We show that Hansen solubility parameters can be used to predict the range of solvents that are likely to be gelled by any given gelator.
A new functionalized mesoporous polymer (MPTAT-1) has been synthesized via organic–organic radical polymerization of 2,4,6-triallyloxy-1,3,5-triazine (TAT) in aqueous medium in the presence of an anionic surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulfate) as template. Powder XRD and TEM image analysis suggests the presence of ordered…
Highly ordered mesoporous NiFe(2)O(4) with excellent microwave absorption properties has been synthesized by using mesoporous silica (KIT-6) as a hard template.
Graphene paper (GP) has been prepared by flow-directed assembly of graphene nanosheets. The mechanical properties of as-prepared GPs were investigated by tensile, indentation, and bending tests. Heat treated GPs demonstrate superior hardness, ten times that of synthetic graphite, and two times that of carbon steel; be…
A recently claimed ultra high specific capacitance of 3407 F g(-1) for aligned polyaniline nanorods by the titled communication is shown to be contradictory to both the mechanism of charge storage in conducting polymers, and the experimental findings in other nanofibrils of polyaniline, and may thus stimulate debate.
Narrowly distributed poly(N-vinyl caprolactam) obtained by the MADIX/RAFT process was used for the preparation of novel thermoresponsive gold nanoparticles presenting a sharp reversible response to temperature, which can be easily modulated near the physiological temperature by simply changing the polymer molecular we…
Highly fluorescent carbon nanoparticles were synthesized directly from ethanol by a one-step sodium hydroxide-assisted electrochemical treatment. These nanoparticles could emit bright and colorful photoluminescence covering the entire visible spectral range and had excellent up-conversion fluorescent, stable ionic, lo…
A one-step method for the preparation of polystyrene (PS)-functionalized graphene nanosheets, homogeneously dispersed in a PS matrix and forming electrically conductive graphene/PS nanocomposites, via in situ peeling of graphite nanoplatelets into graphene nanosheets in the presence of a PS solution, is presented in t…
New thermally stable aggregation-induced emission enhancement compounds were synthesized. A non-doped red device showed a maximum brightness of 13,535 cd m(-2), a maximum current efficiency of 6.81 cd A(-1), a maximum power efficiency of 4.96 lm W(-1) and a low turn-on voltage of 4.3 V.
Ultrahigh surface area carbons (3000–3500 m2 g−1) have been obtained via chemical activation of polypyrrole with KOH. The carbon materials exhibit large pore volumes (up to ∼2.6 cm3 g−1) and possess two pore systems: one of pores in the micropore range (∼1.2 nm) and the other in the small mesopore range (2.2–3.4 nm).…
We report the photocatalytic activity of flower-like CuO-ZnO heterostructured nanowires (NWs) fabricated on a stainless steel mesh. The mesh provided an extensive surface area and facilitated efficient mass transfer. The composed NWs exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity and showed additional enhanced properties…
