Chiral porous materials have attracted burgeoning attention on account of their potential applications in many areas, such as enantioseparation, chiral catalysis, chemical sensors and drug delivery. In this report, chiral mesoporous silica (CMS) materials with various pore sizes and structures were prepared using conv…
The quantification of the interaction between nanoclusters and dislocation motion has received relatively little experimental or theoretical research. In this work, the relationship between nanoclusters and dislocations was investigated by conducting tensile tests at different temperatures for a variety of nanocluster…
Abstract The effect of successive injection moldings on the thermal, rheological, and mechanical properties of a polypropylene impact copolymer (PP) was investigated. The crystal content decreased as the molecular weight decreased due to chain scission with repeated injection molding. The Young modulus and the yield s…
The joint probability distribution function P(E, E(p)), where E and E(p) are the normalized structure factors of the target and of a model structure, respectively, is a fundamental tool in crystallographic methods devoted to crystal structure solution. It plays a central role in any attempt for improving phase estimat…
Density functional theory is used to compare water splitting on MgO(100) and MgO/Ag(100). Adsorption is considered on terraces and step edges. On the terrace, the limits of low and monolayer coverage are explored. The metal support enhances the adsorption energies of isolated OH and H through electron exchange with th…
The reliability of force fields is one of today's major challenges in atomic scale computer simulations. We show how to generate predictive force fields from ab initio simulations in the condensed phase, using maximally localized Wannier orbitals (WO). We derive separately all interaction terms (electrostatic, exchang…
Abstract The structural changes and degradation behaviors of poly( L ‐lactic acid) (PLLA) and poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) sponges were studied by incubation in phosphate buffer solution and compared with those of previously reported poly(lactic‐ co ‐glycolic acid) (PLGA) sponge. The changes of pH, weight, molecular wei…
Single-walled carbon nanotubes grow by decomposition of a carbon-containing precursor gas over metal nanocatalysts. It is known that the shape, size, and chemical nature of the catalysts play significant roles in the nucleation and growth processes. Here, we use reactive molecular dynamics simulations to analyze how t…
A novel dynamic ring‐on‐ring equibiaxial flexural testing technique with single pulse loading capability is established on a modified Kolsky bar. This technique is then utilized to investigate the loading‐rate and surface‐condition effects on the flexural strength of a borosilicate glass. Quasi‐static and dynamic expe…
We have investigated the effects of the strain induced by ferroelectric poling (or the converse piezoelectric effect) on the transport properties of ${\text{LaMnO}}_{3+\ensuremath{\delta}}$ and ${\text{CaMnO}}_{3}$ thin films grown on ferroelectric $0.67\text{Pb}({\text{Mg}}_{1/3}{\text{Nb}}_{2/3}){\text{O}}_{3}\text{…
Abstract Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a thermoplastic, biodegradable, linear, and semicrystalline polyester synthesized by bacteria; while coir dust, a waste generated during the coconut fiber processing, is a mixture of short fibers and powder. The aim of this work was to prepare and characterize composites based on…
Carbon nanotube synthesis
A stepwise phase transition in the formation of lithium amidoborane via the solid-state reaction of lithium hydride and ammonia borane has been identified and investigated. Structural analyses reveal that a lithium amidoborane-ammonia borane complex (LiNH(2)BH(3).NH(3)BH(3)) and two allotropes of lithium amidoborane (…
A fully reversible polymeric color-switch system based on reversible Diels-Alder chemistry between cyclopentadienyl capped polymers and highly electron deficient dithioesters is described. The detailed reaction progress could be mapped on a molecular level for several complete switching cycles and was underpinned by a…
Single-phase, polycrystalline Er(x)Y(2-x)SiO(5) thin films were deposited by reactive ion-beam sputter deposition and rapid thermal annealing. Due to the crystalline nature, the silicate thin films provide peak Er(3+) emission cross-section of 0.9 +/- 0.02 x 10(-20) cm(2) that is higher than that in silica. Optical ga…
The two-dimensional polyhedral anion network melilites La 1+ x Sr 1− x Ga 3 O 7+0.5 x exhibit interstitial oxide ion conductivity. The solid solution is shown to extend to x = 0.64, and the variation of the conductivity with x is investigated. At high temperatures, all of these compounds adopt the typical tetragonal m…
Abstract Severe plastic deformation (SPD) can be used to consolidate particles into bulk ultrafine and nanostructured materials. SPD consolidation relies on plastic deformation of individual particles, rather than diffusion, to achieve bonding and thus can be carried out at much lower temperatures. Using examples of c…
Abstract Polymer blending is a common and effective way to develop new materials with desirable physical and mechanical properties. Since most polymer pairs are immiscible, reactive compatibilization has been extensively studied to stabilize morphology of polymer blends and improve their mechanical properties. In the…
In this study, we provide a simple and reproducible method for the preparation of highly active and recyclable colloidal acid catalysts. First, 16-heptadecenoic acid-functionalized magnetite nanoparticles were encapsulated in monodisperse cross-linked polymer spheres. This was achieved by emulsion copolymerization tec…
The effect of folate-targeted liposomal doxorubicin (FTL-Dox) has been well characterized in folate receptor (FR) overexpressing tumors in vitro, particularly in KB human carcinoma cells. However, there are few studies evaluating the in vivo efficacy of FTL-Dox in KB murine xenograft models. In this study, we investig…
