Cellulose has a potential to become a key resource in the development of biodegradable film composites. In this work, cellulose was modified by using 2-(Trifluromethyl)benzoylchloride by base-catalyzed reaction. Modification of cellulose was confirmed by IR studies. The biodegradable composite films were developed by…

Abstract A simple approach to electrospinning has been developed that enables the collection of polymer, ceramic, and multiphase composite fibers, in quantity, with a high degree of spatial orientation. It has been demonstrated that a careful choice of solvent effectively eliminates the onset of the characteristic “be…

Basic equations of diffusional kinetics in alloys are statistically derived using the master equation approach. To describe diffusional transformations in substitution alloys, we derive the "quasi-equilibrium" kinetic equation which generalizes its earlier versions by taking into account possible "interaction renormal…

Low dimensional structures have demonstrated improved thermoelectric (TE) performance because of a drastic reduction in their thermal conductivity, κl. This has been observed for a variety of materials, even for traditionally poor thermoelectrics such as silicon. Other than the reduction in κl, further improvements in…

We show here that silver nanoparticles (AgNP) were intrinsically antibacterial, whereas gold nanoparticles (AuNP) were antimicrobial only when ampicillin was bound to their surfaces. Both AuNP and AgNP functionalized with ampicillin were effective broad-spectrum bactericides against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bac…

Abstract In spite of a long history of quasi-one-dimensional halogen-bridged complexes (MX-chains), all Pt and Pd complexes form charge-density-wave (CDW) state (–X···M2+···X–M4+–X···), while all Ni complexes form Mott–Hubbard (MH) state (–X–Ni3+–X–Ni3+–X–), without exception. Although an interesting charge dynamics a…

Abstract Copolymers of 4‐vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazole and 1‐vinylimidazole (VI) were obtained by radical copolymerization of (4‐vinyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐1‐yl)methyl pivalate with VI followed by alkali hydrolysis. Reactivity ratios of the triazole and imidazole monomers are 0.51 and 0.30, respectively. Theoretical quantum‐chemic…

The growth of platinum on non-reduced CeO(2) (111) surface is studied by means of calculations based on the density functional theory. Particles of increasing size are formed on the oxide surface by incorporating the platinum atoms one by one until multilayer films are obtained. The main conclusion is that platinum at…

Abstract Microwave (MW)‐assisted ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) provides a rapid and straightforward method for engineering a wide array of well‐defined poly(3‐hydroxyalkanoate)‐ b ‐poly( D,L ‐lactide) (PHA‐ b ‐PLA) diblock copolymers. On MW irradiation, the bulk ROP of D,L ‐lactide (LA) could be efficiently trigge…
