Successful synthesis and investigation of a new material that uses copper-metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs) as the template for loading LiBH(4) are reported. The nanoconfinement of LiBH(4) in the pores of Cu-MOFs results in an interaction between LiBH(4) and Cu(2+) ions, enabling the LiBH(4)@Cu-MOFs system to achieve…
Here we report the synthesis of a novel conducting polymer and its properties as an immobilization platform for biosensor application. The conducting polymer has functional groups used for the formation of amide bonding with the enzyme immobilized on the polymer surface. After covalent immobilization of glucose oxidas…
[Fe(Por)CF(3)SO(3)] (Por = porphyrin dianion) can efficiently catalyze selective oxidation of terminal aryl alkenes and aliphatic alkenes to aldehydes in good to high yields under mild conditions.
Nanostructured copper sulfides have attracted much attention due to their unique electronic and optical properties and potential applications in many areas. This article presents a high-temperature precursor-injection method to synthesize covellite copper sulfide (CuS) nanoplates by using oleylamine as capping ligands…
Contact angle hysteresis of liquid droplets is investigated on sticky and flexible super-omniphobic surfaces made up of PDMS–Si3N4 microstructures. Up to now, extensive studies have been focusing on the relation between hysteresis and surface properties such as roughness or defect density. However, little attention ha…
We perform numerical simulations of a model of purely repulsive soft colloidal particles interacting via a generalized elastic potential and constrained to a two-dimensional plane and to the surface of a spherical shell. For the planar case, we compute the phase diagram in terms of the system's rescaled density and te…
Scanning photoelectron microscopy (SPEM) is a powerful technique to image and probe micro and nano-structures. Recent achievements on imaging the sub-micro objects will be present in this report. For the first time, SPEM is used to explore and probe the chemical state and chemical composition of individual ZnO nanostr…
A new class of highly porous borazine-linked polymers (BLPs) has been synthesized utilizing arylamines and boron trihalides. BLPs exhibit Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface areas in the range of 503 to 1364 m2 g−1 and store up to 1.3 wt% of hydrogen with 7.1 kJ mol−1 isosteric heat of adsorption.
Highly porous bimetallic nanowires manufactured via a simple galvanic reaction have demonstrated superior activity in surface-enhanced Raman scattering, allowing ultrasensitive chemical detections on isolated porous nanowires in comparison to pristine silver nanowires.
The alternating ABABAB π-stacked bis-1,2,3-dithiazolyl radical 2a (2, R(2)=Ph) has a conductivity σ of 3×10(-5) S cm(-1) at 300 K, and orders as a spin-canted antiferromagnet (T(N)=4.5 K) which undergoes a spin-flop transition to a field-induced ferromagnetic state saturating (at 2 K) at H ∼20 kOe.
Highly interconnected macroporous polymers can be produced by the polymerization of high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) with a dispersed phase exceeding 74 vol%. Until recently, it was thought that poly(merized)HIPEs with a maximum reported gas permeability of 0.46 D could only be produced by the polymerization of s…
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a network of biological macromolecules that surrounds cells within tissues. In addition to serving as a physical support, the ECM actively influences cell behavior by providing sites for cell adhesion, establishing soluble factor gradients, and forming interfaces between different cel…
Hexametallic chromium(III) chains can act as fluoride donor ligands to lanthanide ions giving {(Cr(6))Ln(x)}(n) complexes; preliminary spectroscopic studies are reported.
Two series of novel polyazomethines (PAMs) P1–P5, Pa–Pe with an Mn of 1522–7879 g mol−1 were prepared via the direct polycondensation from N,N-Bis(4-aminophenyl)-4-N′-carbazolyl-1,4- phenylenediamine, and N,N-Bis (4-aminophenyl)-N′,N′-di-phenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine with various dicarboxaldehyde such as phthaldialdehyd…
A lightweight, oxygen-rich carbon foam was prepared and doped with Pd/Hg alloy nanoparticles. The composite revealed high H2 sorption capacity (5 wt%) at room temperature and moderate pressure (2 MPa). The results were explained on the basis of the H2 spillover mechanism using Density Functional Theory.
Protein adsorption and cellular behavior depend strongly on the wettability of substrates. Such studies are scarce for surfaces exhibiting extreme values of contact angles. Fibronectin (FN) adsorption and adhesion of MC3T3-E1 cells were investigated on superhydrophobic polystyrene (SH-PS) surfaces and compared with th…
Addition of CN(-) or F(-) to the B-functionalized quaterthiophene QTB induces a rapid change in the emission color from yellow to blue and blue-green, respectively, accompanied by a strong fluorescence turn-on. Structural analyses and TD-DFT calculations suggest that both the conformation of the conjugated backbone an…
VEGF-loaded core/shell fibrous membranes were prepared by coaxial electrospinning with dextran (DEX) as the core component and poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) as the shell polymer, respectively. The electrospun DEX/PLGA fibers were observed by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and confoc…
Two types of peptide nanotubes, one is prepared from an amphiphilic peptide having a right-handed helix segment and the other from that having a left-handed helix segment, are shown to transform the morphology into a vesicle by membrane fusion due to stereo-complex formation between these helical segments.
Bulk quantities of polypyrrole nanofibers and nanospheres can be synthesized with a facile, one-step "green-nano" chemical oxidative polymerization approach, by simply using different reaction media.
