This paper presents a characterization of the PLA-CO 2 system for solid-state foaming process with a particular goal of producing low density foams. The diffusivity of CO 2 in PLA increases with increasing saturation pressures. The results show that low relatively density (lower than 10%) can be achieved in a wide pro…

Dynamic light scattering (DLS) has become one of the most useful diagnostic tools for crystallization. The main purpose of using DLS in crystal screening is to help the investigator understand the size distribution, stability, and aggregation state of macromolecules in solution. It can also be used to understand how e…

The homopolymer of 1,4-dioxane-2-one (pDO) is well known as an established biomaterial, especially for degradable surgical sutures. Well-defined α,ω-dihydroxy telechelics based on pDO are introduced in this paper. pDO was synthesized via a one step reaction modified to a literature procedure with a yield of 50–60%. Th…

Hydrogen evolution on (111) diamond electrode surfaces was studied by hybrid density functional theory with cluster models. The reductive hydronium ion discharge in the Volmer-Heyrovsky (V-H) mechanism to form was found to be activated when there was either a bond-inserted interstitial hydrogen defect or a substitutio…

Magnetization measurements and differential thermal analysis (DTA) of polycrystalline MnBi were carried out in magnetic fields up to 14 T and in 300–773 K, in order to investigate the magnetic phase transition. The magnetic phase transition temperature (Tt) at a zero magnetic field is 628 K and linearly increases with…

New hexaalkoxydibenzo[a,c]phenazines (HDBPs) with six-carbon long chains have been prepared, and their mesogenic behavior investigated. The incorporation of six peripheral alkoxy groups onto the larger, dipolar core bearing nitrogen atoms showed interesting thermal properties. The crystal-to-mesophase transitions for…

BACKGROUND: Recurrent malignant glioma has a dismal prognosis, and therapeutic options are scarce. After previous potentially encouraging reports on liposomal pegylated doxorubicin (PEG-DOX) in this setting, PEG-DOX was applied to patients with recurrent malignant glioma in an institutional series. METHODS: In a retro…

Recently, much attention has been directed toward the study of Sc-doped zirconia electrolyte for intermediate-temperature SOFCs (IT-SOFCs) due to its fairly good ionic conductivity compared with conventional Y-doped zirconia, which can reduce the internal ohmic loss of the cell. For improving unit cell performance, an…
