Using the ab initio full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave approach, we have studied the role of surface oxygen vacancies on the characteristics of palladium deposition on the MgO (100) surface. In agreement with recent theoretical evidence, we find that the adsorption energy of a single Pd atom is considerabl…
The synthesis of a new sandwich lutetium(III) bisphthalocyanine substituted with hexylthio groups (1), [(C6H1)S)8-Pc]2Lu, is described. The compound is very soluble in most common organic solvents and has been fully characterized (elemental analysis, IR, 1H and 13C NMR, UV-vis spectroscopy, mass spectrometry). The che…
Aqueous dispersions of different smectite-type clay minerals were probed by ion-exchange of methylene blue (Mb). The evolution of the absorption spectra with time demonstrates the importance of the strength of the Mb−clay surface interaction, which is affected by the colloidal nature of the suspension and typical clay…
A phase diagram as a function of molecular weight ratio and blend composition was constructed for the binary blends of nearly symmetric polystyrene- block -polyisoprene (PS−PI) copolymers. In this study we prepared four series of binary blends, and every blend consists of a copolymer, hereafter designated as α, whose…
We report a study of the self-condensing group transfer copolymerization of the initiator−monomer (“inimer”) 2-(2-methyl-1-triethylsiloxy-1-propenyloxy)ethyl methacrylate (MTSHEMA) with methyl methacrylate (MMA). The highly branched polymethacrylates were characterized by multidetector SEC and NMR. Kinetic measurement…

Abstract The effect of blending crosslinked linear low‐density polyethylene (cLLDPE) on the rheological properties and foam processability of linear low‐density polyethylene was studied. A small addition of cLLDPE, which had a low density of crosslink points, enhanced strain‐hardening behavior in the elongational visc…
Quasi-monodisperse emulsions can be obtained by shearing a crude polydisperse one within a very narrow gap ( Langmuir 1997, 4600−4613). In this paper, we apply the emulsifying technique developed for simple emulsions to fabricate double emulsions of controlled size. We first prepare quasi-monodisperse and concentrated…
The structural and thermodynamic properties of mixtures of colloidal spheres and nonadsorbing polymer chains are studied within a general two-component macromolecular liquid state approach applicable for all size asymmetry ratios. The dilute limits, when one of the components is at infinite dilution but the other conc…

Mesoporous silica can be formed with amphiphilic molecules acting as structure-directing templates in dilute systems. The templating properties of five related triblock copolymers, (EO) x −(PO) y −(EO) x (Pluronic L101, P103, P104, P105, and F108), have been investigated regarding the length of the EO blocks as well a…
Energy landscape theory is becoming increasingly important to explain the behavior of proteins, clusters, and glasses. In this Perspective, [ Brooks et al .][1] chart recent progress in these areas spanning biology, chemistry, and physics. [1]: http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/full/293/5530/612
Utilizing Co/Al$_2$O$_3$/Co magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) with Co electrodes of different crystalline phases, a clear relationship between electrode structure and junction transport properties is presented. For junctions with one fcc(111) textured and one polycrystalline (poly-phase and poly-directional) Co electro…
A magnetic "spin filter" tunnel barrier, sandwiched between a non-magnetic metal and a magnetic metal, is used to create a new magnetoresistive tunnel device, somewhat analogous to an optical polarizer-analyzer configuration. The resistance of these trilayer structures depends on the relative magnetization orientation…
A new method is presented for mesoscopic simulations of particle dispersions in nematic liquid-crystal solvents. It allows efficient first-principles simulations of the dispersions involving many particles with many-body interactions mediated by the solvents. A simple demonstration is shown for the aggregation process…
Regime transitions of poly[(S)-lactide] (PLA) crystal growth from the melt were investigated by studying the morphological changes and carrying out kinetic analysis using microscopic techniques. PLA thin films with an average layer thickness of 100 nm were isothermally crystallized at a given crystallization temperatu…
Three novel mixed-ligand lithium aggregates, [(mu(3)-EDBP)Li(2)](2)[(mu(3)-(n)Bu)Li(0.5Et(2)O)](2) (1), [(mu(3)-EDBP)Li(2)](2)[(mu(3)-OBn)Li](2) (2), and [(mu(3)-EDBP)Li(2)](2)[(mu(3)-OCH(2)CH(2)OCH(2)CH(3))Li](2) (3), have been synthesized and structurally characterized. The reaction of 2,2'-ethylidene-bis(4,6-di-ter…
Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), soluble in both water and many organic solvents, is grafted onto single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), and aggregation behaviors of the resulting PEO- graft -SWNT in solutions and in Langmuir−Blodgett (LB) films are investigated. SWNTs, cleaved by acid, are dispersed relatively well in DM…
We investigated magnetic, magnetotransport and magnetostriction properties of the A-type antiferromagnet Pr$_{0.46}$Sr$_{0.54}$MnO$_3$ which undergoes a first order paramagnetic-antiferromagnetic transition below T$_N$ = 210 K while cooling and T$_N$ = 215 K while warming. The zero field ($μ_0$H = 0 T) resistivity sho…
We perform molecular dynamics simulations of an idealized polymer melt surrounding a nanoscopic filler particle. We show that the glass transition temperature T(g) of the melt can be shifted to either higher or lower temperatures by tuning the interactions between polymer and filler. A gradual change of the polymer dy…
