Abstract Polypropylene (PP) and acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene blends of different composition were prepared using a single‐screw extruder. The binary blend of PP/ABS was observed to be incompatible and shows poor mechanical properties. PP‐ g ‐2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2‐HEMA) was used as a compatibilizer for the…
Poly( dl -lactic acid) (PLA) materials have been surface engineered via an entrapment method to present high densities of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) to control protein adsorption. The resultant change in physical properties was characterized on the surface and bulk of the entrapped PEG/PLA system through microthermal…
The synthesis of singly and doubly bridged bis-TTF containing a 2,6-bis(methylthio)pyridine group as a linker and potentially usable as a ligand for paramagnetic transition metal complexes is reported. Cyclisation leading to doubly bridged bis-TTF has been achieved without using the high dilution technique generally e…
The deposition of polyelectrolyte multilayers at an aqueous solution−organic gel interface by layer by layer deposition of anionic poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) and cationic poly(allylamine hydrochloride) is described. With suitable electrolytes and electrodes in both phases, alternating current voltammetry is emplo…
The compound [Mn(tda)(bipy)] (tda = S(CH2COO)2(2-)) features the first structurally characterized tetra-carboxylate dimanganese antiferromagnetic system with 'copper acetate' core; the binuclear units, completed by bipyridine chelates, are doubly chained by the tda anions that adopt an unprecedented mu,mu'-eta1,eta1,e…
We observed a photoluminescence (PL) spectrum at room temperature that had a peak with full width of half maximum (FWHM) of 0.38 eV near the band gap energy of 3.2 eV from a Si:SiO2 sputtered film without annealing. Blue-light emission could be seen by the naked eye. A low-intensity PL peak with FWHM of 0.20 eV was al…
An approach to utilizing electro-optically (EO) active polymers in hybrid waveguide structures is described and demonstrated. Buried sol-gel waveguides provide a robust basis for planar integrated circuitry, suitable for coupling with optical fibers. By selectively exposing the core of a buried channel guide, overcoat…
The reaction of mononuclear ruthenium precursor [Ru(II)(acac)(2)(CH(3)CN)(2)] (acac = acetylacetonate) with the thiouracil ligand (2-thiouracil, H(2)L(1) or 6-methyl -2-thiouracil, H(2)L(2)) in the presence of NEt(3) as base in ethanol solvent afforded a trinuclear triangular complex Ru(3)(O,O-acetylacetonate)(3)(mu-O…
Abstract Simple blends with different viscosity ratios of the components as well as compatibilized blends varying both in type and content of the compatibilizers were used to study the relation between the interfacial tension and the dispersed‐phase particle size for PP/PA6 (80/20 wt %) blends in this work. Four compa…
Flibe (2LiF–BeF2) is a molten salt that has been chosen as the coolant and breeding material in many design studies of the inertial confinement fusion (ICF) chamber. Flibe plasmas are to be generated in the ICF chamber in a wide range of temperatures and densities. These plasmas are more complex than the plasma of any…
Organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH), immobilized within polyelectrolyte multilayers deposited on glass beads (30−50 μm), showed sustained catalytic activity under ambient conditions for several months. OPH multilayers consist of two priming layers, branched poly(ethylene imine) (BPEI) and polystyrenesulfonate (PSS), foll…
Thin barium titanate films, 0.5–8 μm thick, are obtained from a single-crystal bulk sample using ion slicing. The process, based on ion implantation and anodic bonding, separates thin films having areas of ∼1×1 cm2, from bulk crystals. The quality of the film is characterized by measurement of surface roughness and di…
Single crystals of two new osmium-containing triple perovskites, Ba(3)LiOs(2)O(9) and Ba(3)NaOs(2)O(9), were grown from reactive molten hydroxide fluxes in sealed silver tubes. They crystallize in the space group P6(3)/mmc with lattice parameters of a = 5.8025(1) A, c = 14.1468(4) A for Ba(3)LiOs(2)O(9) and a = 5.8858…
A dilute magnetic semiconductor was achieved by implanting Mn ions into p-type GaN and subsequent annealing. The ferromagnetic property was obtained after annealing at 800 °C. This was attributed to the formation of Ga–Mn magnetic phases. Higher temperature annealing at 900 °C reduced the ferromagnetic signal and prod…
A small-angle x-ray scattering technique has been applied for characterizing pore-size distribution in porous low-κ dielectric films. The data are collected in reflection geometry using offset θ/2θ scans for avoiding strong specular reflections from the film surface and its substrate. The effects of refraction and ref…
Atomistic simulations are employed to investigate the nanoindentation deformation properties of model nc-Au with grain diameters of 5 and 12 nm, using both conjugant gradient and molecular dynamics. It is found that grain boundaries act as efficient sinks for dislocation nucleation below the indenter and that intergra…
Biodegradable polyesters represent an important class of materials, and one subset of these polymers are the bacterially produced poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate)s (PHA), a bacterially produced material. These polymers are very hydrophobic, and chemical methods to increase their hydrophilicity will ultimately lead to new appl…
The gas-phase catalytic oxidation of benzene was carried out using molecular oxygen as an oxidant over Cu-supported catalysts. Phenol was formed only when using Cu-supported high-silica-type zeolites as catalysts. The Cu-supported H-ZSM-5 zeolite (CuH-ZSM-5) was the most active among those tested. Deep oxidation produ…
Inclusion complexes (ICs) of biodegradable amphiphilic poly(ethylene oxide)−poly[( R )-3-hydroxybutyrate]−poly(ethylene oxide) triblock copolymers with α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) or γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) were prepared from aqueous medium. The ICs were characterized by XRD, DSC, 13 C CP/MAS NMR, 1 H NMR, FTIR, and TGA. The…
Electronic properties of reduced (vacuum-annealed) and oxidized (air-annealed) TiO2 films were investigated by in situ conductivity and current–voltage measurements as a function of the ambient oxygen pressure and temperature, and by ex situ surface photovoltage spectroscopy. The films were quite conductive in the red…
