Abstract In the present work, statistical (EOCs) and block (OBCs) ethylene‐octene copolymers, with similar densities and crystallinities, were used as impact modifiers of isotactic polypropylene (iPP), and the toughening effects of these two types of elastomers were compared. The viscosity curves of EOCs were similar…

An elegant and facile route for the preparation of polymer/silver nanocomposites for polymers having solubility in organic solvents has been developed. Aqueous colloidal solution of nano-silver has been used as the source of nano-silver particles. Nano-silver particles were transferred to the poly(methyl acrylate) (PM…

Shining star: Star-shaped hexakis(oligothienylethynyl)benzene with C6 symmetry shows solvatochromic fluorescence with a marked redshift in emission. Furthermore, the star-shaped molecule shows a fairly large two-photon absorption property. Interestingly, the molecule forms fluorescent fibrous materials from hexane, DM…

A survey of recent studies of biaxial liquid crystals (LCs), whose nematic and/or smectic-A phases do not possess optical uniaxiality (viz., more than one optical axis exists), is given in this review. In particular, we emphasize on how Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy can help to advance the understandin…

Binary naoparticles composed of a superparamagnetic Fe(3)O(4) core and an Au nanoshell were prepared via a high-temperature hydrolysis reaction followed by seed-mediated growth. The nanoprobes render simultaneous dual functions of both fast magnetic response and local surface plasmon resonance. Using these nanoprobes,…

Abstract To analyze the specific roles of anthraquinone‐2‐sulfonate (AQS) and polypyrrole (PPy) layer on oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), the electrocatalytic reduction of oxygen was investigated on the AQS/PPy composite modified graphite electrode. Results show that the enhanced electrocatalytic performance is attrib…

Abstract Multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are modified by polycarbosilane derived SiC to improve the dispersion of MWCNTs in the polymer matrix. Unmodified and modified MWCNTs are dispersed in PEI/hydroxyl terminated PDMS(HTSR) blend by melt mixing. TEM and FESEM images shows better dispersion of SiC coated MWCN…

The FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra of 1,3-diphenyl thiourea were recorded and analyzed. The vibrational wavenumbers were examined theoretically with the aid of the Gaussian03 package of programs using the HF/6-311++G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) levels of theory. The data obtained from vibrational wavenumber calculations…

An order−order phase transition of chiral block copolymers (BCPs*) from single helix to double gyroid (H* → G) through a nucleation and growth process was demonstrated. The H* and G phases can be obtained by solution casting from fast and slow solvent evaporation, respectively, suggesting that the H* phase is a metast…

Introduction Although studied less than aquatic diatoms, aerial diatoms are discussed in an extensive literature. Most publications on the topic consist merely of floristic lists. Thus, our understanding of aerial diatom ecology is meager. Given the brevity of the current chapter, it is not possible to list all of the…
