Compact spinning is one of the most important improvements of traditional ring spinning, which is implemented by adding a fiber condensing device to condense the fiber bundle and decrease the spinning triangle. Pneumatic compact spinning is the most widely used compact spinning method at present. Compact spinning with…
N3 dye molecules [cis-bis(isothiocyanato)bis(2,2'-bipyridyl-4,4'-dicarboxylato)ruthenium(II)] are covalently attached to boron-doped nanocrystalline diamond (B:NCD) thin films through a combination of coupling chemistries, i.e., diazonium, Suzuki, and EDC-NHS. X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy and near-…
We study localized modes at a surface of a multilayer structure made of graphene layers separated by dielectric layers. We demonstrate the existence of deeply subwavelength surface modes that can be associated with the electromagnetic Tamm states, with the frequencies in the THz frequency range the negative group velo…
Self-assembled nanoparticles conjugated with various imaging contrast agents have been used for the detection and imaging of pathologic tissues. Inadvertently, these nanoparticles undergo fast, dilution-induced disintegration in circulation and quickly lose their capability to associate with and image the site of inte…
Upon ultraviolet excitation, photochromic spiropyran compounds can be converted by a ring-opening reaction into merocyanine molecules, which in turn can form several isomers differing by cis and trans configurations in the methine bridge. Whereas the spiropyran-merocyanine conversion reaction of the nitro-substituted…
In this article, we demonstrate how first-principles calculations can be effectively employed in the development of microkinetic models for practical catalysis, despite material gaps and calculation uncertainties. In particular, we develop a hierarchically refined microkinetic model for the conversion of CH 4 to synga…
Sr2YF7, as an important matrix for trivalent lanthanide (Ln(3+)) ions to fabricate upconversion (UC) or downshifting (DS) phosphors, has been rarely reported. Herein, monodisperse and size-controllable tetragonal-phase Ln(3+)-doped Sr2YF7 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized via a facile thermal decomposition method.…
Soil toxicity tests for metal oxide nanoparticles often include micrometer-sized oxide and metal salt treatments to distinguish between toxicity from nanometer-sized particles, non-nanometer-sized particles, and dissolved ions. Test result will be confounded if each chemical form has different effects on soil solution…
Using updated and improved atomistic models for the polymorphs of calcium carbonate and their constituent ions in solution, we revisit the question of surface energetics and nanoparticle stability. Using a simple lattice-based Monte Carlo scheme, we generate nanoparticle configurations in vacuum for all three biologic…
Solubility data of chrysin in different solvents are crucial for theoretical research and industrial application. In this work, the solubility of chrysin in the aqueous mixtures conformed by ethanol and water was assayed over the temperature range of (293.15 to 323.15) K using the ultraviolet spectrophotometric method…
Plasticizer compatibility with the polymer, which implies that plasticizer and polymer will remain closely associated as the finished polymer product is used, is critically important in determining whether a flexible poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) product will have an acceptably long service life. However, with traditiona…

A simple reduction method without the need for high-temperature annealing is proposed for highly conductive and dispersible graphene sheets. This method consists of the grafting of graphene oxide (GO) with 1-pyrenecarboxylic acid (PCA) and the exothermic reduction of the PCA-grafted GO, followed by an endothermic deca…
Following exposure to ppm-level hydrogen sulfide at elevated temperatures, a section of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) Ni-YSZ anode was examined using a combination of synchrotron-based x-ray nanotomography and x-ray fluorescence techniques. While fluorescence measurements provided elemental identification and coarse…
Permeability plays an important role to achieve the desired therapeutic outcomes. Present study was designed to investigate the permeability of ciprofloxacin from ultrathin polyvinyl alcohol nanofiber through different biological membranes. Results of the permeability studies indicated that nanofibers exhibit higher d…
The possibility to release drugs from conducting polymers, like polypyrrole or poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), has been described and investigated for a variety of different substances during the last years, showing a wide interest in these release systems. A point that has not been looked at so far however…
Fluorescent carbon dots (FCDs) were synthesized by refluxing polyethylene glycol, which can emit bright and different fluorescent colours under various wavelengths as well as show stable fluorescence properties with different ionic strength, temperature and time. These FCDs exhibit good biocompatibility and very low t…
Owing to the low-cost, nontoxicity and abundance, aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films become a better alternative to indium tin oxide (ITO) films. Therefore, development of AZO films with transparent conducting properties comparable to that of ITO is one of the main focuses of material scientists, and hence var…
The reaction of racemic SalBinap ligand, (±)-H2(ONN*OMe), with InCl3 and excess NaOEt generated a mixture of two dinuclear compounds [(μ-κ(2)-ONN*OMe)In(μ-OEt)]2 (1a) and [κ(4)-ONN*OMe)In(μ-OEt)]2 (1b), which were isolated and fully characterized. Polymerization of racemic lactide with 1a and 1b was slow in refluxing…
We applied a combination of inorganic mesoporous silica material, frequently used as drug carriers, and a natural organic polymer alginate (ALG), to establish a sustained drug delivery system for the poorly water-soluble drug Indomethacin (IND). Mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSNs) were synthesized using an organic te…
