In the last few decades, multiple H-bonded arrays have been shown to be versatile tools to prepare functional supramolecular materials. Supramolecular complexes formed by uracil (Ur) and 2,6-diamidopyridine (DAP) developed by Lehn are the first examples of multiple H-bonded systems governing the formation of supramole…

The electron work function of nickel with various grain sizes has been studied. It has been shown that the work function decreases as the specific length of grain boundaries in nickel increases with decreasing average grain size. It has been found that the transformation of grain boundaries from a nonequilibrium to eq…

Polymer brushes are commonly used to modify the properties of solid surfaces. Here a family of polybasic poly(2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) brushes have been grown using ARGET ATRP from a cationic macroinitiator adsorbed on two types of silica surfaces: QCM crystals and oxidised silicon wafers. The pH-response o…

Piperazine is an amine which is used both as an activator or promoter, but also as active component in CO 2 capture solvents. High concentrations are being formulated to draw benefit of the PZ properties. This results in a risk of precipitation of PZ and other solid phases during capture. It could be a benefit to the…

We have developed a newly designed non-explosive release actuator that can replace currently used release devices. The release mechanism is based on a separation mechanism, which relies on segmented nuts and a shape memory alloy (SMA) wire trigger. A quite fast and simple trigger operation is made possible through the…
