The application of high alumina materials with additions of spinel and/or spinel forming magnesia as wear linings in steel ladles has increased in recent years. Resistance to steel slag is the most important criterion when selecting a suitable material. In the present study, two different high alumina spinel castable…
In this paper we report the successful preparation of hafnium substituted barium titanate, i.e. BaTi1−x Hfx O3 (BHT) ceramics with (x = 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0. 3a nd 0.4). X-ray diffraction measurements followed by Reitveld analysis show the single-phase nature of these ceramics undergoing a tetragonal to cubic phase trans…
We analytically study heat conduction in a chain with an interparticle interaction V(x)= lambda[1-cos(x)] and harmonic on-site potential. We start with each site of the system connected to a Langevin heat bath, and investigate the case of small coupling for the interior sites in order to understand the behavior of the…
Materials containing Fe(Pc)(CN) 2 dicyano(phthalocyaninato)iron molecules show a giant negative magnetoresistance from the interaction between the conduction and the local moment. Under a magnetic field, the resistance becomes two orders of magnitude smaller than the zero-field resistance. The magnetic-field-angle dep…
High-temperature, high-pressure Raman spectra were obtained from aqueous NaOH solutions up to 2NaOHH2O, with X(NaOH)=0.667 at 480 K. The spectra corresponding to the highest compositions, X(NaOH)> or =0.5, are dominated by H3O2-. An IR xi-function dispersion curve for aqueous NaOH, at 473 K and 1 kbar, calculated from…
The anionic porphyrin, meso-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphine, is found to tightly bind to an engineered 14-residue peptide, resulting in induced alpha-helix formation when mixed in aqueous solutions. The small porphyrin-peptide dissociation constant (2 muM) observed is related to the energetics of peptide helix for…
Extremely narrow copper hydroxide nanostrands with a diameter of 2.5 nm were prepared by controlling the pH of an aqueous copper nitrate solution with weak bases. The nanostrands grew slowly from initially formed small particles of 2−6 nm. The growth was highly sensitive to the amount and types of weak bases. Long nan…
In this work we demonstrate that hexagonal nanodisks of cadmium hydroxide with nanoporous structures could be fabricated by a facile hydrothermal treatment without using any templates or organic additives. With this method, the length of the hexagonal edge and thickness of the nanodisks can be adjusted through control…
Two-dimensional (2-D) surface layer (S-layer) protein lattices isolated from the gram-positive bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans and the acidothermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius were investigated and compared for their ability to biotemplate the formation of self-assembled, ordered arrays of inorganic nano…
The selective functionalizations of the fundamental hydrogen-terminated nanodiamonds triamantane 1, as well as the most symmetrical representative of the tetramantanes (C(2h)-[121]tetramantane 2) were elaborated. Electrophilic reagents (Br2, HNO3) predominantly attack the medial C-H positions of the cages; bromination…
A novel way for directed solution growth of hollow superstructures of CaCO3 has been successfully developed on the basis of controlled self-assembly and polymer concentration gradients using a double-hydrophilic block copolymer with a hydrophobic modification as a directing agent. A formation mechanism of such rings i…
Abstract After a general introduction into the field of molecular magnets the discussion focuses on a more specific description of their most important representative species, single‐molecule magnets incorporating transition metal ions. We overview traditional model approaches for the phenomenological description of s…
The adsorption/desorption of N2 at 77 K and the adsorption from aqueous solution at 298 K of four organic probe molecules of different sizes (phenol, 4-nitrophenol, orange II, naphthol green B) were studied for a phthalocyanine network polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM) and for an activated carbon (Darco 20-40 m…
Patterned multiwall carbon nanotube arrays up to four millimeters long were synthesized using chemical vapor deposition. Electrochemical actuation of a nanotube array tower was demonstrated in a 2 M NaCl solution at frequencies up to 10 Hz with 0.15% strain using a 2 V square wave excitation. The synthesis and electro…
Rhenium(bipyridine)(tricarbonyl)(picoline) units have been linked covalently to tetraphenylmetalloporphyrins of magnesium and zinc via an amide bond between the bipyridine and one phenyl substituent of the porphyrin. The resulting complexes, abbreviated as [Re(CO)(3)(Pic)Bpy-MgTPP][OTf] and [Re(CO)(3)(Pic)Bpy-ZnTPP][O…
This paper describes the results of an investigation of the interparticle interactions and reactivities in the assembly of gold nanoparticles mediated by cyanine dyes. The combination of the positively charged indolenine cyanine dyes and the negatively charged gold nanoparticles is shown to form a J-aggregate bridged…
This paper reports a reproducible low-temperature solution-based process for the preparation of ZnO films of nanorod arrays and their application to dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). A two-step approach was employed for the epitaxial growth of ZnO. We began with the preparation of a (002)-oriented ZnO seed layer by…
Long-alkyl chain functionalized poly(propylene imine) dendrimer, poly(ethylene imine) hyperbranched polymer, and beta-cyclodextrin derivatives, which are completely insoluble in water, have the property of encapsulating organic pollutants from water. Ceramic porous filters can be impregnated with these compounds resul…
Within the framework of the density functional theory, we calculate the electronic structure of $\alpha$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$ at 8K and room temperature at ambient pressure and with uniaxial strain along the $a$- and $b$-axes. We confirm the existence of anisotropic Dirac cone dispersion near the chemical potential. We…
We report reversibly color changeable hybrid microgels that tune multiple brilliant colors due to interparticle interactions of SPR using several structured nanoparticles. The interparticle interactions were brought out using the thermosensitive swelling/deswelling property of microgel. We employ N-isopropylacrylamide…
