The dynamics of energy transport along rigid rod conjugated polymer--poly(p-phenylenebutadyine)--chains is modeled with a special emphasis on the role of conformational disorder. A simple random growth algorithm based on torsion potentials with increasing stiffness yields polymer chains with increasing degree of conju…

Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) has a wide application in industry and the biomedicine area, but its poor water resistance and insufficient mechanical strength have severely limited its application. To overcome these limitations, in this study, inorganic silica sol was used to modify organic PVA. The tensile results show th…

In this work, we studied the catalytic activity of commercial alumina, and laboratory-synthesized alumina doped with Lewis acid metals, in the epoxidation of methyl oleate with aqueous hydrogen peroxide. It was observed that the reaction yields increased when the amount of catalyst, the quantity of hydrogen peroxide,…

Because the traditional storage of methane in the condensed state in high-pressure vessels is rather dangerous, and to store a large amount of gas using adsorbents is impossible at normal ambient conditions, we have developed a nanocapsule, which combines the advantages of a high-pressure vessel and adsorbents--a larg…

A series of 6-substituted and 5-fluoro-6-substituted uridine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their potential as anticancer agents. The designed molecules were synthesized from either fully protected uridine or the corresponding 5-fluorouridine derivatives. The mononucleotide derivatives were used for en…

Supramolecular chirality in two configurational homoaggregates of anionic meso-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (TPPS) can be induced by D- and L-alanine in acidic water (see picture). The chirality can be further memorized and enforced through strong electrostatic interactions between TPPS aggregates and achiral…

Freestanding nanoporous polysulfone membranes are fabricated using nanosphere lithography, in which colloidal silica particles act as a template for the organometallic etch resist, which is composed of poly(ferrocenylsilanes). As shown in the figure, the membranes are robust enough to be removed from the silica wafers…

The adsorption of small silica particles onto large sterically stabilized poly(2-vinylpyridine) [P2VP] latex particles in aqueous solution is assessed as a potential route to nanocomposite particles with a "core-shell" morphology. Geometric considerations allow the packing efficiency, P, to be related to the number of…

We investigate theoretically the electronic transport properties in narrow graphene ribbons with an adatom-induced defect. It is found that the lowest conductance step of a metallic graphene nanoribbon may develop a dip even down to zero at certain values of the Fermi energy due to the defect. Accompanying the occurre…
