Abstract The temperature‐dependent solubility of hexanitrostilbene (HNS) [CAS# 20062‐22‐0] was determined in ten solvents and solvent blends using the Tyndall effect. Thermodynamic modeling of the data yielded Flory interaction parameters, the molar enthalpy of mixing, the molar entropy of mixing, and the molar Gibbs…

Crystal-growth features of the foliated aragonite from two species of the rare monoplacophoran molluscs have been analyzed. The crystals have unique morphologies. They are very thin along the c axis and elongated along the a axis, and their arrangement varies depending on the species. Surface energy minimization in th…

Reduction of the N-methylated bis-1,2,3-thiaselenazolylium salts [2a,b,c][OTf] (with R(1) = Me and R(2) = H (2a), F (2b), Me (2c)) affords the corresponding bis-1,2,3-thiaselenazolyl radicals 2a,b,c. The radicals crystallize as centrosymmetric Se-Se sigma-bonded dimers [2a,b,c](2), in which an intramolecular Se-S bond…

Photocatalysis and Fenton reaction treatments were first employed to eliminate the residual surfactants in the single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) films without destroying the intrinsic structure of SWNTs. The removal of the surfactants was verified by Raman and XPS spectra. After the treatments, the conductance of…

Increasing the luminescence of silica particles encapsulating fluorescein by increasing fluorescein concentration is a promising strategy which is unfortunately limited by the phenomenon of self-quenching. In this paper, we demonstrate that this quenching can be almost entirely suppressed by the presence of gold inclu…

In this study we focus on some key problems encountered in the processing of bast fibers from hemp for the production of textiles. These problems include the high content of pectin, the excessive rigidity and the poor “spinnability” of hemp fibers. The results of a thorough analysis of the physical and chemical proper…

We report the influence of ZnO nanorod arrays (NRAs) on the light extraction efficiency of GaN light emitting diodes (LEDs). Our investigation indicates that the output light intensity of the device exhibits a periodic oscillation as a function of the rod length. The variation of light extraction efficiency is caused…

The primary environmental variables which influence the water vapor transmission rate of fabrics include air temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed. The combined quantitative effects of air temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed have been explored. The air temperature varied from 10 °C to 30 °C in 5 °C…

Abstract A unique, geometry‐optimized, surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) fiber‐optic sensor has been recently developed and built. Though this class of sensors can be very useful in many applications, their use is greatly hindered by the fact that their reusability can hardly be achieved because of the irrevers…

Layer-by-layer assembly has shown a great deal of promise in biomedical coatings, as well as local drug delivery systems. The poor loading capacity of hydrophobic drugs within the multilayers is a drawback in their potential applications. Herein, sulfonated hyperbranched polyether (HBPO-SO(3)) with a hydrophobic core…

The authors have studied low threshold lasing in dye-doped cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs). We designed and synthesized a dye, 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(6'-hexyloxy-2-naphthyl)pyrene, which has high quantum yield Φ= 0.85. Since the transition dipole moment is perpendicular to the local director of a host CLC, laser oscillat…
