The process parameter in optimized KOH alkali activation of soft carbon series coke material in high purity was set with DOE experiments design. The activated carbon was produced by performing the activation process based on the set process parameters. The specific surface area was measured and pore size was analyzed…
In the present study, the combined effect of multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) and organoclay in improving the flame retardancy and thermal stability was evaluated. A novel ternary nanocomposite (polymer/organoclay/MWNT) material based on polypropylene, organoclay and MWNTs has been developed. Higher degree of delami…
The morphology and the microscopic internal dynamics of a bidimensional gel formed by spontaneous aggregation of gold nanoparticles confined at the water surface are investigated by a suite of techniques, including grazing-incidence x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (GI-XPCS). The range of concentrations studied s…
A method and the design of instrumentation, and its preliminary practical realisation, including test experiments, with the object of inducing phase changes of biomolecular crystals by controlled dehydration through heating with infrared (IR) light are described. The aim is to generate and select crystalline phases th…
Spectroscopic and photophysical properties of an extended Zn porphyrin with fused bis(tetraazaanthracene) arms including a 2,9-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline incorporated in a polyether macrocycle are investigated in solvents of different polarity pointing to the presence of two emitting singlet excited states. The abso…
The development of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with functional groups has been intensively pursued in recent years. Herein, a simple, versatile, and cost-effective strategy to synthesize water-soluble and amino-functionalized MNPs, based on the thermal decomposition of phthalimide-protected metal-organic precursors…
We derive the grand-canonical partition function of straight and parallel dislocation lines without making a priori assumptions on the temperature regime. Such a systematic derivation for dislocations has, to the best of our knowledge, not been carried out before, and several conflicting assumptions on the free energy…
The drying of particulate suspensions is important to many industries such as paints, ceramics, minerals processing, and pharmaceuticals. Cakes or films first consolidate due to capillary pressure and, at a critical concentration, stop consolidating and begin to desaturate. Desaturation occurs once the compressive str…
Single-molecule (SM) fluorescence microscopy was used to investigate the photochromic fluorescent system spiropyran-merocyanine (SP ↔ MC) interacting with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). We observe a significant increase in the brightness of the emissive MC form, in the duration of its ON time, and in the total number of…
The combination of a dye which absorbs the photon, an electron acceptor and an electron donor leading to energy conversion through electron transfer, was the basis of the so called three-component systems. In this paper, an experimental work combining Rose bengal dye with a triazine derivative as electron acceptor and…
Solid bifunctional acid–base catalysts were prepared in two ways on an amorphous silica support: (1) by grafting mercaptopropyl units (followed by oxidation to propylsulfonic acid) and aminopropyl groups to the silica surface (NH 2 –SiO 2 –SO 3 H), and (2) by grafting only aminopropyl groups and then partially neutral…
This article highlights different synthetic strategies for the preparation of colloidal heterostructured nanocrystals, where at least one component of the constituent nanostructure is a semiconductor. Growth of shell material on a core nanocrystal acting as a seed for heterogeneous nucleation of the shell has been dis…
Hydrothermal synthesis of GdPO4 in the presence of poly(methacrylic acid) yields nanorods with a diameter of 15 nm and an aspect ratio of 20. Powder X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the GdPO4 nanorods display peaks characteristics for both monoclinic and hexagonal structures. Three-dimensional electron diffracti…
The upper part of the human eccrine sweat ducts, embedded within the epidermis layer, have a well-defined helical structure. It was recently suggested that, as electromagnetic entities, the sweat ducts interact with sub-mm waves [Y. Feldman et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 128102 (2008)]. Although correlation between cha…
Aqueous high molecular weight linear polyethylene nanocrystal/graphene composite dispersions were produced in situ by ethylene insertion polymerization in water or alternatively via a postpolymerization technique. Graphene was used without any prior compatibilizing surface modification. Remarkably, the Ni(II) salicyla…
The aim of this work was to assess a number of coatings developed for Mg for biomedical applications. The Mg substrates were high‐purity (HP) Mg and ME10, an alloy recently developed for improved extrudability. The research utilized the new fishing‐line specimen configuration to allow direct comparison to our recent i…
Formulations of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) reinforced by curaua leaf fibers were prepared and characterized. This biocomposite has material characteristics such as biodegradability and renewability. This work aimed to develop a PLA/curaua leaf fiber composite as a sustainable biodegradable polymer composite. The PLA and…
The spontaneous degradation of asparaginyl and aspartyl residues to isoaspartyl residues is a common type of protein damage in aging organisms. Although the protein-l-isoaspartyl (d-aspartyl) O-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.77) can initiate the repair of l-isoaspartyl residues to l-aspartyl residues in most organisms, n…
Hydrotalcite is a layered double hydroxide (LDH) consisting of brucite-like sheets of metal ions (Mg-Al). In this work, hydrotalcites were synthesized, and boron removal from oilfield wastewater was evaluated. LDHs were synthesized using the co-precipitation method. The calcined products (CLDHs) were obtained by heati…
Amorphous GexSixTe1−2x glasses are studied as a function of composition by a combination of experimental and theoretical methods, allowing for a full description of the network structure in relationship with physico-chemical properties. Calorimetric and thermal measurements reveal that such glasses display an anomalou…
