The title 1,4-dioxane solvate, C8H4FNO2·C4H8O2, was isolated during a manual crystallization screen on 7-fluoroisatin (7-fluoroindoline-2,3-dione). The 7-fluoroisatin molecule occupies a general position and each of the independent molecules of 1,4-dioxane is disposed about a centre of inversion, with half of eac…

We investigate the single-particle orientational dynamics of rodlike molecules across the isotropic-nematic transition in computer simulations of a family of model systems of thermotropic liquid crystals. Several remarkable features of glassy dynamics are on display including nonexponential relaxation, dynamical heter…

Abstract This paper deals with the problem of T‐bar penetration. New kinematically admissible velocity fields are derived from elastic solutions of incompressible material using Airy stress function. These velocity fields are used to obtain upper bounds to collapse loads. Two particular solutions are presented, one fo…

It is well established (from which the general interest arises!) that nanomaterials (NM) display properties and behavior that can be very different compared to the corresponding bulk materials of the same chemical composition. Size, shape, and surface state are properties accounting for most of their differences (1,2)…

Abstract Nanosilica (SiO 2 ) is used as a reinforcing filler in PP/elastomer thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) blends containing ethylene‐octene polyolefin elastomer (POE), ethylene‐propylene rubber (EPR), and maleated EPR. The localization and dispersion of the filler are controlled by adding maleated derivatives to the…

This paper presents two novel hierarchical structures of SiC–SiO2 core–shell nanowires: (a) nanocables in the form of multi-core and single shell and (b) nanowebs in the form of intersecting nanowires and nanocables, augmented by variable amounts of SiO2 membranes. The two structures are controllable through variation…

A wide range of (Bi1−xSbx)2Te3 thin films and nanowires were electrodeposited from acidic tartaric–nitric baths. Initially, (Bi1−xSbx)2Te3 thin films were electrodeposited on gold substrates to investigate the effect of the deposition potential and electrolyte composition on film composition. After these investigation…

Abstract The self‐assembly of PVPh‐ b ‐PS in different solvents was studied. Upon replacing toluene by THF as the solvent, the morphology of the resulting aggregates change from core‐shell spheres, rod‐like micelles and vesicles to onion‐like aggregates. With increasing block copolymer concentration, morphologies such…

Abstract Hyperbranched poly( p ‐phenylene ethynylenes) (HB‐PPEs) were synthesized in an A 2 + B 3 one‐pot approach by the Pd/Cu‐catalyzed cross‐coupling reaction of 1,4‐diethynyl‐2,5‐bis‐(octyloxy)benzene and 1,2,4‐tribromobenzene. Reaction conditions were varied with the objective to obtain well‐defined HB‐PPEs of di…

Abstract A series of meso ‐coumarin‐conjugated porphyrins 1a – e were designed and synthesized. Condensation of 4‐chloroacetoacetate ethyl ester with m ‐cresol or resorcin afforded 4‐chloromethylcoumarins, which were then hydrolyzed to give coumarin alcohols, followed by oxidation to provide coumarin aldehydes. The re…

Abstract By adding a small amount of clay into poly( p ‐phenylene sulfide) (PPS)/polyamide 66 blends, the morphology was found to change gradually from sea–island into cocontinuity and lamellar supramolecular structure, as increasing of clay content. Clay was selectively located in the PA66 phase, and the exfoliated c…
