Phenyl boronic acid (PBA), which is known to interact with glucose, was covalently bonded to chitosan by direct reductive N-alkylation of chitosan with 4-formylphenylboronic acid (4-FPBA). Evidence of PBA bonding on chitosan was assessed by FTIR, ToF-SIMS, SEM, DSC and glucose adsorption sensitivity measurements. FTIR…

Multidirectional forging has been developed to produce an ultrafine-grain (UFG) microstructure in the two-phase titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V. A microstructure with a grain size of 135 nm was attained, enabling low-temperature superplasticity (LTSP) at 550°C. A total elongation of 1000% and strain-rate-sensitivity coeffici…

Azulene-containing conjugated polymers with near-infrared absorption up to 1.5 μm and beyond are achieved by treating with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA). Density functional theory calculations reveal that the near-infrared absorption arises from a strong intramolecular charge transfer transition on the polymer backbone,…

An unusual hollow core expansion through in situ self-activation in a confined nanospace is observed, which is due to the different physical and chemical properties of the core and shell. The in situ generated gas molecules (e.g., CO2, H2O) preferentially assemble in the hollow core and create immense pressure, which…
