Abstract A different series of new polystyrene–clay nanocomposites have been prepared by grafting polymerization of styrene with vinyl‐montmorillonite (MMT) clay. The synthesis was achieved through two steps. The first step is the modification of clay with the vinyl monomers, such as N,N ‐dimethyl‐ n ‐octadecyl‐4‐viny…

Pressure-sized clusters: Aqueous solutions of rhodium complexes stabilized by phosphinophosphonic acid ligands turn ink-black under a hydrogen atmosphere. Depending on the hydrogen pressure applied, rhodium clusters of 2–6 nm can be isolated (see scheme). These clusters are catalysts for the biphasic hydrogenation of…

Abstract A series of hydrogenated natural rubbers, HNRs, were prepared by homogenous hydrogenation using H 2 gas with a rhodium catalyst (chlorotris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium) in toluene. The HNRs were linear polymers with molecular weights greater than 800,000. These rubbers were vulcanized using sulfur and peroxide…

Abstract Electrospinning is a simple but powerful method for making nanofibers that can then be collected to create porous mats. We expand the range of this technique by making nanofibers from macromolecules with a molecular weight of 3,000,000, namely poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO). Gelation of PEO blocks its spinning by…

We use confocal microscopy to visualize individual particles near the colloidal glass transition. We identify the most slowly-relaxing particles and show that they form spatially correlated clusters that percolate across the sample. In supercooled fluids, the largest cluster spans the system on short time scales but b…
