Neurodegenerative and infectious disorders related to host genetics, aging, and environment are rapidly increasing. Drugs, vaccines, or regenerative proteins offer "real" possibilities for positively affecting disease outcomes but are limited by access across the blood-brain barrier. New developments in nanomedicine a…

Abstract The homopolymerizations of D , L ‐lactide and glycolide catalyzed by ZnOct 2 were studied by DSC. The kinetic parameters obtained are compared with those obtained from conversion data of bulk polymerizations. For the glycolide, the respective values of the calculated rate constants were quite similar. For the…

Abstract Based on an in situ template method, branched phosphazene‐containing nanotubes were synthesized via a controlled two‐step adding technique of acid acceptors. Structural and morphological characterizations of the as‐synthesized products were performed by SEM, TEM, EDX and FTIR. The results showed that the bran…

Abstract Chromophore‐containing dendritic structures (G1, G2) are utilized to intercalate layered silicates, which results in a large d ‐spacing up to 126 Å. An exfoliated morphology is obtained by mixing the dendritic structure intercalated layered silicates with polyimide in N , N ‐dimethylacetamide solution. The de…

Abstract A facile route to synthesize well‐defined polybutadiene (PBd) DendriMacs is described. In a highly modified approach to that recently published for the synthesis of polystyrene DendriMacs, a G1 polybutadiene (PBd) DendriMac has been synthesized in three simple and high yielding steps. The first step involves…

The data produced shed new light on particle formation under fast Joule heating: the particle size depends on the initial size of the crystallites of a metal. The size of crystallites has been determined by the x-ray diffraction method as the size of the region of coherent scattering d(RCS). Median-surface particle si…
