Abstract Multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) filled polypropylene (PP) composites were prepared by a corotating intermeshing twin screw extruder. To improve the dispersion of MWCNTs, the surface of MWCNT was modified with 1,10‐diaminodecane, and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MA‐ g ‐PP) was used as a compa…

Macroporous crystalline TiO2 thin film is achieved by using an amphiphilic triblock copolymer of PEO-PS-PEO as a templating agent, coupled with a good-poor solvent pair induced phase separation process and sol−gel chemistry. The macroporus TiO2 exhibits unusual thermal structural stability up to at least 1000 °C.

Theoretical investigation of the defect energy levels in band gap for ZnO is of great importance to understand the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum in experiment. However, the "band-gap" problem in the density functional calculations leads to incorrect evaluation of the defect levels inside the band gap. In this work,…
