Previous thermodynamic analyses of carbon formation in SOFCs assumed that graphite could be used to represent the properties of carbon formed in the anode. It is generally observed, however, that catalytically grown carbon nanofibers (CNF) are more likely to form in the SOFC anode with nickel catalysts. The energetic…

The structure of intertidal benthic diatoms assemblages in the Tagus estuary was investigated during a 2-year survey, carried out in six stations with different sediment texture. Nonparametric multivariate analyses were used to characterize spatial and temporal patterns of the assemblages and to link them to the measu…

Metal oxides as a rule oxidize and oxygenate substrates via the Mars-van Krevelen mechanism. A well-defined α-Keggin polyoxometalate, H(5)PV(2)Mo(10)O(40), can be viewed as an analogue of discrete structure that reacts via the Mars-van Krevelen mechanism both in solution and in the gas phase. Guided by previous experi…

t-ZrO 2, synthesized under hydrothermal treatment conditions at 150 °C for 20 h using NaOH as the mineralizer, was phase stable up to 600 °C in air. The t-ZrO 2 calcined at 600 °C (denoted as Z600) were nonporous spherical nanocrystallites with an average size of ∼12 nm and a surface area of ∼55 m 2 /g, which exhibite…

In this contribution, we reported the synthesis of organic–inorganic polyurethanes with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) in the main chains. Toward this end, 3,13-dihydroxypropyloctaphenyl double-decker silsesquioxane (DDSQ) was synthesized; this POSS diol was used as a chain extender to obtain hybrid polyu…

We consider oxygen interactions with realistic silica surfaces, including both experimentally observed nondefective surface reconstructions and experimentally observed surface defects. Nondefective models include clusters representing the site above a fully coordinated surface Si atom and bridging O atoms, and the def…

Monodisperse carbon spheres with coefficient of variation less than 4% were successfully synthesized through polycondensation of resorcinol with formaldehyde in the presence of ammonia as a catalyst followed by carbonization in an inert atmosphere. The diameters of the carbon spheres can be tuned in the range of 220–1…

We describe a synthesis of Au wavy nanowires in an aqueous solution in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The resultant Au nanowires automatically separated from the solution and floated at the air/water interface. We investigated the formation mechanism by characterizing the samples obtained at di…

Cyclic butylene terephthalate oligomers (CBT) were reacted in a ring-opening polymerization with three types of isocyanates: a bifunctional aromatic type, a bifunctional aliphatic type and a polymeric aromatic isocyanate. All reactions took place in a batch mixer. The use of 0.5 to 1 wt% isocyanate led to a dramatic i…

In this work, all-polypropylene composites (all-PP composites) were manufactured by injection moulding. Prior to injection moulding, pre-impregnated pellets were prepared by a three-step process (filament winding, compression moulding and pelletizing). A highly oriented polypropylene multifilament was used as the rein…

We have established a well-defined dome shape Tc curve in Ir0.94-xRhxSe2 superconductors. The maximum Tconset of 9.6K was obtained at x=0.36, at which the Se-Se separation in the dimer anion is the longest. Simultaneously, the destabilization of Se-Se dimers accompanied by partial elec-tron-transfer from the Ir/Rh to…
