To explain the shear‐thinning behavior of untreated carbon nanotube (CNT) suspensions in a Newtonian matrix, a new set of rheological equations is developed. The CNTs are modeled as rigid rods dispersed in a Newtonian matrix and the evolution of the system is controlled by hydrodynamic and rod–rod interactions. The pa…
A simple solvothermal strategy is presented to prepare morphology-tunable hierarchical TiO 2 microspheres, and the microsphere-based photoanode exhibited a power conversion efficiency of 7.95%.
EuGa4 and EuAl4 crystallize in the BaAl4-type tetragonal structure. The antiferromagnetic order was observed at 15 and 16.5K in EuGa4 and EuAl4, respectively.1,2) The magnetic susceptibilities in EuGa4 and EuAl4 well follow the Curie–Weiss law with effective moments of 7.97 and 8.02 B, respectively, which are consiste…
A truly novel strategy for fabricating reducible supramolecular assemblies based on the host–guest interaction between cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) and methyl viologen (MV) is reported. The anticancer drug doxorubicin is loaded into the assemblies and a reducing agent Na2S2O4 can be used to successfully trigger release of…
Abstract A new class of quasi-solid polymer electrolytes where both the primary and secondary components of the synthesized semi-interpenetrating polymer networks (semi-IPNs) are comprised of an ether backbone is investigated in detail. The study comprehensively discusses the dependence of physicochemical characterist…
Abstract The addition of phosphoric acid to W–Nb–O catalyst active for glycerol transformation to acrolein and to W–V–Nb–O catalyst active for direct transformation of glycerol to acrylic acid appreciably improved their catalytic performance. The phosphoric acid-added W–Nb–O catalyst gave acrolein yield of 81.8%, and…
We analyze the resonant electromagnetic response of sub-wavelength plasmonic dimers formed by two silver strips separated by a thin dielectric spacer and embedded in a uniform dielectric media. We demonstrate that the off-resonant electric and resonant, geometric shape-leveraged, magnetic polarizabilities of the dimer…
A new highly transparent and low cost counter-electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells was fabricated, comprised of a structured graphene film over nickel nanoparticles. Annealed nickel particles induced an enhanced restoration of graphene double bonds, which led to cells with energy conversion efficiencies similar to…
Ecdysteroids, molting hormones of insects, can exert several mild, non-hormonal bioactivities in mammals, including humans. In a previous study, we have found a significant effect of certain derivatives on the ABCB1 transporter mediated multi-drug resistance of a transfected murine leukemia cell line. In this paper, w…
Synthesis of zeolite A from aluminoborosilicate glass used in liquid crystal display ( LCD ) panel glass substrate was attempted. Mixture of aluminoborosilicate glass and sodium aluminate was hydrothermally treated with sodium hydroxide solution for 10.8–345.6 ks at 368–423 K. Aluminoborosilicate glass was also acid t…
Vc H-NOX (or VCA0720) is an H-NOX (heme-nitric oxide and oxygen binding) protein from facultative aerobic bacterium Vibrio cholerae. It shares significant sequence homology with soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC), a NO sensor protein commonly found in animals. Similar to sGC, Vc H-NOX binds strongly to NO and CO with affi…
Three acetate-functional polyimides based on 2,2-bis(3-amino-4-hydroxy-phenyl)hexafluoropropane (APAF) and dianhydrides with different linking groups (-O-, -CO-, and -C(CF 3 ) 2 -) were prepared, from which films were prepared and thermally rearranged (TR) to form poly(benzoxazole) dense membranes. The polymers were c…
The reinforced concrete beam-column joint exhibits different properties under dynamic loading when compared with that under quasi-static loading, due to the effect of strain rate. However, the majority of previous studies are focused more on the rate effect of concrete and reinforcement, but less on beam-column joints…
The development of therapies that lead to the regeneration or functional repair of compromised cardiac tissue is the most important challenge facing translational cardiovascular research today. During the last 25 years huge efforts have been made towards restoring the physiologic functions of the heart by means of del…
We report a systematic and quantitative study of near-infrared intersubband absorption in strained AlGaN/GaN and lattice-matched AlInN/GaN superlattices grown by plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy as a function of Si-doping profile with and without \ensuremath{\delta} doping. For AlGaN/GaN, we obtained good theore…
The ultimate miniaturization of electronic devices at the atomic scale with single electrons requires controlling the reversible charge storage in a single atom. However, reversible charge storage is difficult to control as usually only one charge state can be stabilized. Here, combining scanning tunneling microscopy…
Dicarboxylate supported metal organic hybrids of Co(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) have been synthesized using two different pyridyl based N,N′ linkers having Schiff base functionalized site. The use of flexible dicarboxylate glutarate in designing such frameworks has created a marked diversity in topology. The different N,N′…
The crystal structure of La10W2O21, which has to be reformulated (La5.667W0.333)LaWO14□2, is best described, on average, by a 2 × 2 × 2 anion-deficient fluorite-related superstructure cubic cell, with space group F4 3m, Z = 4, and a = 11.17932(6) Å, similar to Y7ReO14--δ. The 32 cations are distributed with lanthanum…
We analyse the combinatorial aspect of global optimisation for multicomponent systems, which involves searching for the optimal chemical ordering by permuting particles corresponding to different species. The overall composition is presumed fixed, and the geometry is relaxed after each permutation in order to relieve…
Prediction of protein loop conformations without any prior knowledge (ab initio prediction) is an unsolved problem. Its solution will significantly impact protein homology and template-based modeling as well as ab initio protein-structure prediction. Here, we developed a coarse-grained, optimized scoring function for…
