TiCl4 grafted to dehydrated silica is an industrially applied catalyst for the epoxidation of propylene. As with many heterogeneous catalysts, the precise nature of the surface species is not yet fully known, prohibiting reliable structure-activity correlations. In this study, the speciation and restructuring of site-…
1-(Triisopropylsilyl)-3,4-dichloropyrrole and 1-(triisopropylsilyl)-3,4-difluoropyrrole were conveniently prepared from the corresponding 3,4-dibromopyrrole by lithiation followed by halogenation. 2,3,17,18-Tetrahalogeno [26]- and [28]hexaphyrins have been prepared by condensation of 3,4-dihalopyrroles and a dipyrrome…
A local glass transition temperature, T g, around ionic aggregates in poly(ethylene- random -methacrylic acid) (E-MAA) ionomers neutralized with sodium has been studied by the combination of the position-selective spin probing and microwave power saturation method of electron spin resonance (ESR). 5DSA, 7DSA, 10DSA, a…
We demonstrate that the thermopower ($S$) can be used to probe the spin fluctuations (SFs) in proximity to the quantum critical point (QCP) in Fe-based superconductors. The sensitivity of $S$ to the entropy of charge carriers allows us to observe an increase of $S/T$ in Ba(Fe${}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$Co${}_{x}$)${}_{2}$A…
Yolk/shell particles, which were hollow silica particles containing a movable magnetic silica core (MSC), were prepared by removing a middle polystyrene layer from multilayered particles of MSC/polystyrene/silica shell with heat treatment followed by a slight etching with a basic solution. An ac electric field was app…
Composites of untreated and treated kenaf fibres with recycled polypropylene were fabricated by melt-cast technique with and without using maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene. To improve interfacial bonding between kenaf fibres and recycled polypropylene, surface modifications of fibres were performed through ultra…
Total internal reflection microscopy (TIRM) is used to measure SiO2 colloid ensembles over a glass microscope slide to simultaneously obtain interactions and stability as a function of pH (4-10) and NaCl concentration (0.1-100 mM). Analysis of SiO2 colloid Brownian height excursions yields kT-scale potential energy vs…
In this work, we consider two issues related to the use of Smoothed Dissipative Particle Dynamics (SDPD) as an intermediate mesoscale model in a multiscale scheme for solution of flow problems when there are local parts of a macroscopic domain that require molecular resolution. The first is to demonstrate that SDPD wi…
Despite the importance of diatoms in regulating climate and the existence of large opal-containing sediments in key air-ocean exchange areas, most geochemical proxy records are based on carbonates. Among them, Boron (B) content and isotopic composition have been widely used to reconstruct pH from foraminifera and cora…
Abstract In this research, a new direction for functionalizing of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) via the atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) method was utilized. SWCNTs were grafted with polystyrene (PSt) by the in situ ATRP method, in the presence of α-phenyl chloro acetylated SWCNT. This functional…
A simple and rapid process for deposition of high refractive index films of ZnS/PVP nanocomposite (NC) is described. Precursor films are dip-coated on glass/quartz substrates from methanolic solution of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) containing Zn+2–thiourea (TU) complex. ZnS/PVP nanocomposite films are produced by heatin…
Poly(2,3‐dimethylaniline)/nano‐Al2O3 composite (PAC) was synthesized by emulsion polymerization using dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid as emulsifier and dopant. The structure of PAC was characterized by Fourier fransformation infrared spectroscopy, UV–visible adsorption spectroscopy, and field emission scanning electron…
Utilization of graphene may help realize innovative low-power replacements for III-V materials based high electron mobility transistors while extending operational frequencies closer to the THz regime for superior wireless communications, imaging, and other novel applications. Device architectures explored to date suf…
1-3 ceramic/polymer composites based on high Curie temperature ferroelectric ceramic BiScO3–PbTiO3 (BSPT) were fabricated using the dice and fill method. The electromechanical coupling factor kt of BSPT composite was found to be 58% at room temperature, higher than the thickness coupling factor of monolithic BSPT ∼50%…
We review the way in which atomic tetrahedra composed of metallic elements pack naturally into fused icosahedra. Orthorhombic, hexagonal, and cubic intermetallic crystals based on this packing are all shown to be united in having pseudo-fivefold rotational diffraction symmetry. A unified geometric model involving the…
The spall properties of rolled Al 5083-H116 plate are investigated using symmetric plate impact experiments over the stress range 1.5–6.2 GPa. Rear free surface velocity measurements made employing Velocity Interferometer System for Any Reflector interferometry reveal velocity profiles with clear signals of the Hugoni…
We report on the tuning of specific binding of DNA attached to gold nanoparticles at the individual particle pair (dimer) level in an optical trap by means of plasmonic heating. DNA hybridization events are detected optically by the change in the plasmon resonance frequency due to plasmonic coupling of the nanoparticl…
Uniaxially anisotropic chitin-silica nanocomposite solids have been obtained thanks to the electric field-induced macroscopic alignment of liquid-crystalline reactive cosuspensions. We demonstrate how chitin nanorods (260 nm long, 23 nm thick) can be aligned upon the application of an alternating current (ac) electric…
Particle get-together: Surface functionalization with a branched copolymer surfactant is used to create responsive inorganic particles that can self-assemble in complex structures. The assembly process is triggered by a pH switch that reversibly activates multiple hydrogen bonds between ceramic particles (see picture;…
Ein Zusammenhang zwischen der Reduzierbarkeit von CeO2 und dem d-Band-Zentrum des Edelmetalls wird für Edelmetallkatalysatoren auf CeO2-Trägern berichtet. Die Ergebnisse könnten starke Metall-Träger-Wechselwirkungen sowie Wasserstoff-Spillover erklären, die in Katalysatoren aus fein verteiltem Metall in Kontakt mit re…
