Abstract The addition of NaBH4to Pd(OAc)2in water containing nanomicelles leads to the generation of H2and Pd nanoparticles. Subsequent reduction of disubstituted alkynes affordsZ‐alkenes in high yields. These reactions are general, take place in water at ambient temperatures, and offer recycling of the aqueous reacti…

The effects of wax lubricant filled microcapsule content on the tribological properties of epoxy composites without or with 8 wt.% short carbon fibers (SCFs) were systematically investigated. The core percentage of the microcapsules used in this study was about 70 wt.%. The tribological results clearly showed that the…

Platinum gauze catalysts are used extensively in the production of nitric acid from ammonia, where they are subject to harsh operating conditions combining elevated temperatures and oxidizing environments. These cause significant loss of metal species as volatile oxides. How different metallic species behave in these…

A supramolecular crystallization-based approach has been developed for the shape-dependent separation of geometrical isomers under near-ambient conditions. Difficulties to separate such isomers arise because of their very similar physical properties. The present approach relies on the ability of C60 to preferentially…

The performance and photocatalytic activity of the well-known CdS/ZnO nanorod array system were improved significantly by the layer-by-layer heterojunction structure fabrication of a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) CdO layer on the CdS/ZnO nanorods. Accordingly, a CdO layer with a thickness of approximately 5-10 nm…

This predictive study demonstrates that the introduction of aromatic-oxy-alkyl links surprisingly makes materials more resistant to photo-oxidative degradation by reducing hydrogen abstraction. This revelation makes it possible, for the first time, to design a toolbox of substituents for soluble, photostable conjugate…

The first photoelectron spectra of AgF(-) are recorded over the energy range 1.61-1.85 eV using the velocity map imaging technique. The resolved vibrational structure of the AgF X', v' ← AgF(-) X″, v″ = 0 band yields an AgF electron affinity of 1.46 ± 0.01 eV and vibrational frequency of 500 ± 40 cm(-1). For the v' =…

We developed a novel method for the real-time monitoring of the delicate change in refractive index (RI) when DNA or RNA hybridize near a DNA-capped silver nanocube (AgNC) surface. This method offers an alternative platform in the quantitative analysis of the trace lung cancer-associated miRNAs in label-free detection.
