High‐toughness Sialon ceramic matrix composites containing alloy second‐phase particles were fabricated by hot pressing at a relatively low temperature of 1600°C. Substantially improved fracture toughness of 8.0 MPa·m 1/2 was achieved through the addition of varying amounts of ferro‐molybdenum alloy particles. The mic…

Tetrabutylammonium fluoride has been found to catalyze the deacylation of cellulose esters. More surprisingly, the deacylation is highly regioselective. Even more remarkably, in contrast with the C-6 regioselectivity of other reactions of cellulose and its derivatives, this deacylation shows substantial selectivity fo…

A simple and green hydrothermal process has been developed to produce Cu from CuO using cellulose as a reductant under mild hydrothermal conditions. The results showed that CuO was easily reduced to Cu in the presence of cellulose, and a complete conversion of CuO into Cu was obtained at a temperature of 250 °C with a…

The dehydrogenation reaction pathway of Ca(BH 4 ) 2 has been investigated under an isobaric condition of 1 bar of hydrogen. β-Ca(BH 4 ) 2 gradually transforms into the (XRD invisible) amorphous phase at the initial stage. Upon further heating, it decomposes into CaB 2 H x or CaB 12 H 12, indicating that there is a sub…

In this study, we synthesized glass‐ceramics from glasses in the system SiO 2 –B 2 O 3 –Na 2 O–CaO–Al 2 O 3 –MoO 3 –Gd 2 O 3 by various heat treatments. Glass‐ceramics contain only one crystalline phase in the bulk: powellite ( CaMoO 4 ). The influence of molybdenum and rare earth contents on powellite crystallization…

Whereas, commonly, Langmuir monolayers are structurally dominated by the aliphatic chains, we present here the first case of monolayers where the chains merely serve anchoring at the air/water interface and the organization is dictated by the hydrophilic head group self-assembling in a hexagonal lattice. These head gr…

Compromise between the electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient limits the efficiency of chemical doping in the thermoelectric research. An alternative strategy, involving the control of a local crystal structure, is demonstrated to improve the thermoelectric performance in the RE(2)SbO(2) system. The RE(2)SbO(…

We have experimentally and numerically investigated photo-induced voltage (PIV) effect across a Au film with a dielectric grating. We observed strongly enhanced voltage when surface plasmon polariton (SPP) is excited. It was found that electrons in the Au film are driven to the propagation direction of SPP. We have nu…
