The surface of aligned, electrospun poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) fibers was chemically modified to determine if surface chemistry and hydrophilicity could improve neurite extension from chick dorsal root ganglia. Specifically, diethylenetriamine (DTA, for amine functionalization), 2-(2-aminoethoxy)ethanol (AEO, for alcoh…
ABSTRACT The use of silica to partially replace carbon black is a common practice in the fabrication of “green tires.” Although some degree of consensus has been approached concerning the improved performance conferred by silica substitution, such as the improved dispersion of carbon black, a quantitative understandin…
Two square-planar copper(II) complexes of 1,2-bis(2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-butylbenzimino)-4,5-bis(dimethylamino)benzene (1) and N-[4,5-bis(dimethylamino)-2-(oxalylamino)benzene]oxamate (2(2-)) were prepared. The crystal structures of the proligands H2L(1) and Et2H2L(2), as well as the corresponding complexes, are report…
The corrosion inhibition efficiency, η , of sodium (6R,7R)-3-[(acetoxy)methyl]-8-oxo-7-[(2-thienylacetyl)amino]-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid, cephalothin, was evaluated in the system API 5L X52/1 M HCl, using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and SEM analysis. The results showed that the…
A facile three-step co-precipitation method is developed to synthesize graphitic carbon nanofibers (CNFs) decorated with ZnO nanoparticles (NPs). By interchanging intermediate steps of the reaction processes, two kinds of nanohybrids are fabricated with stark morphological and physicochemical differences. The morpholo…
Owing to their high electrical conductivity, tunable plasmonic absorption spectra, low cost, and abundance in nature, Cu2-x S nanocrystals are of great interest as functional materials for photovoltaic and photothermal applications. With the aim of developing low-cost high-efficiency quantum-dot-sensitized solar cells…
A series of open-framework aluminoborates (ABOs), namely, [Zn2 (en)5 ][Al2 B10 O20 ] (1), [Zn(en)(dien)][AlB5 O10 ] (2), [Zn(en)3 ][AlB7 O12 (OH)2 ] (3), [Zn(en)2 ][AlB5 O10 ] (4), K7 {AlO0.5 [BO2 (OH)]Zn@[B12 O21 (OH)3 ]}⋅H2 O (5) (en=ethylenediamine, dien=diethylenetriamine) have been made under mild solvothermal co…
In the first two papers separately on the polyalcohols and amorphous polymers of this series, we demonstrated that the fast dynamics observed in the glassy state at high frequencies above circa 1 GHz is the caged dynamics. We showed generally the intensity of the fast caged dynamics changes temperature dependence at a…
Hybrid fluorescent nanoparticles (NPs) capable of fluorescing near-infrared (NIR) light (centered ∼730 nm) upon excitation of 800 nm laser light were constructed. A new type of conjugated polymer with two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) feature, P-F8-DPSB, was used as the NIR-light harvesting component and the ener…
The authors present a study on the evolution behaviors of the transfer characteristics of MoS2 and WSe2 field-effect transistor biosensors when they are subjected to tumor necrosis factor-alpha and streptavidin solutions with varying analyte concentrations. Both MoS2 and WSe2 sensors exhibit very low detection limits…
Skutterudites based on CoSb 3 have high thermoelectric efficiency, but the low fracture strength is a serious consideration for commercial applications. To understand the origin of the brittleness in CoSb 3, we examine the response along various shear and tensile deformations using density functional theory. We find t…
This review describes recent research in the development of tank systems based on complex metal hydrides for thermolysis and hydrolysis. Commercial applications using complex metal hydrides are limited, especially for thermolysis-based systems where so far only demonstration projects have been performed. Hydrolysis-ba…
We present calculated adsorption energies of oxygen on gold and platinum clusters with up to 923 atoms (3 nm diameter) using density functional theory. We find that surface tension of the clusters induces a compression, which weakens the bonding of adsorbates compared with the bonding on extended surfaces. The effect…
Graphene oxide (GO) is a layered material comprised of hierarchical features which possess vastly differing characteristic dimensions. GO nanosheets represent the critical hierarchical structure which bridges the length-scale of monolayer and bulk material architectures. In this study, the strength and fracture behavi…
Reaction of the polysulfonated triazole ligand L = 4-(1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)ethanedisulfonate) with iron(II) salts in water yields the trimeric species [Fe3(μ-L)6(H2O)6](6-). This polyanion, as the dimethylammonium salt, shows a thermally induced spin transition above room temperature for the central Fe position in the t…
The family of polyoxometalate (POM) intercalated layered double hydroxide (LDH) composite materials has shown great promise for the design of functional materials with numerous applications. It is known that intercalation of the classical Keggin polyoxometalate (POM) of [PW12 O40 ](3-) (PW12 ) into layered double hydr…
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) exhibit impressive interfacial and mechanical properties that make them promising candidates to be used as fillers within nanocomposites. While glass-transition temperature (Tg) is a common metric for describing thermomechanical properties, its prediction is extremely difficult as it depe…
Metamaterials and metasurfaces provide a paradigm-changing approach for manipulating light. Their potential has been evinced by recent demonstrations of chiral responses much greater than those of natural materials. Here, we demonstrate theoretically and experimentally that the extrinsic chiral response of a metasurfa…
Epoxy networks of the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) were prepared using 3,3′- and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl sulfone isomer crosslinkers. Secondary relaxations and the glass transitions of resultant networks were probed using broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS). A sub- T g γ relaxation peak for both networks s…
Abstract The inhibition behavior of Polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monooleate (Tween 80) as a non-toxic corrosion inhibitor for aluminum alloy (A5754) was investigated in 0.5 M NaOH solution by means of polarization measurement and quantum chemistry method. A significant inhibition in the corrosion rate of A5754 in NaO…
