[structure: see text]. 1: R = beta-D-glucopyranoside. 2: R = alpha-D-glucopyranoside. 3: R = alpha-D-galactopyranoside. 4: R = alpha-D-mannopyranoside. As an attempt to rationally design aqueous organogelators, a bolaamphiphilic azobenzene derivative (1) bearing two sugar groups was synthesized. Compound 1 formed a ge…
The disproportionation of CO over Co−Mo/SiO 2 catalysts with low Co/Mo ratios results in a high selectivity to single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) when the reaction is conducted between 700 and 950 °C in a flow of pure CO at a total pressure between 1 and 5 atm. A detailed characterization involving Raman spectrosc…
We investigate autogenous fragmentation of dry granular material in rotating cylinders using two-dimensional molecular dynamics. By evaluation of spatial force distributions achieved numerically for various rotation velocities we argue that comminution occurs mainly due to the existence of force chains. A statistical…
We propose a simple phenomenological model describing composite crystals, constructed from two parallel sets of periodic inter-penetrating chains. In the harmonic approximation and neglecting thermal fluctuations we find the eigenmodes of the system. It is shown that at high frequencies there are two longitudinal soun…
We study the motion of a grain boundary separating two otherwise stationary domains of hexagonal symmetry. Starting from an order parameter equation appropriate for hexagonal patterns, a multiple scale analysis leads to an analytical equation of motion for the boundary that shares many properties with that of a crysta…
Explicit expressions for anharmonic contributions to the thermodynamic properties with allowance for higher-order phonon-phonon interactions for closed-packed crystals are given, and the calculations for some fcc metals near the melting (Ir, Rh) and martensite phase transition (Ca, Sr) points are carried out. A detail…
In horizontally shaken granular material different types of pattern formation have been reported. We want to deal with the convection instability which has been observed in experiments and which recently has been investigated numerically. Using two dimensional molecular dynamics we show that the convection pattern dep…
The modeling of the elastic properties of disordered or nanoscale solids requires the foundations of the theory of elasticity to be revisited, as one explores scales at which this theory may no longer hold. The only cases for which microscopically based derivations of elasticity are documented are (nearly) uniformly s…
The onset of surface fluidization of granular material in a vertically vibrated container, z=A cos(ωt), is studied experimentally. Recently, for a column of spheres it has been theoretically found that the particles lose contact if a certain condition for the acceleration amplitude \ddot{z} \equiv Aω^2/g = f(ω) holds.…
In this letter, we report a method to fabricate nano-column arrays with different shapes and in-plane orientations by glancing angle deposition. By changing the rate of the rotation during each revolution, we can fabricate nano-columns with circular, elliptical, triangle, rectangular, and pentagon shapes. Depending on…
The ferroelectric ceramic ${\mathrm{BaFe}}_{0.5}{\mathrm{Nb}}_{0.5}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ (BFN) is synthesized by a solid-state reaction technique. The x-ray-diffraction of the sample at room temperature shows a monoclinic phase. The field dependences of the dielectric response and the conductivity are measured in a freque…
The adsorption of several prehydrolyzed alkoxysilanes onto the surface of cellulosic fibers in ethanol/water mixtures has been studied quantitatively. The corresponding isotherms show the formation of a monolayer followed by further adsorption. The nature of the fourth substituent on the silane plays a specific role o…

The helical ribbon and double-layered nanotubular structures of the titanium dioxide were created by sol−gel polymerization of Ti(OiPr)4] using 1 as a template in 1-butanol. All TiO2 nanotubes consist of two layers, 8−9 nm of nanospace between layers. In addition, the helicity of the helical ribbon titanium dioxide sh…
Abstract Plant fibers are rich in cellulose and they are a cheap, easily renewable source of fibers with the potential for polymer reinforcement. The presence of surface impurities and the large amount of hydroxyl groups make plant fibers less attractive for reinforcement of polymeric materials. Hemp, sisal, jute, and…
Cathodoluminescence degradation measurements showed that by applying a nanometer-scale indium tin oxide (ITO) coating on micron-sized ZnS:Ag particles, the degradation lifetime was dramatically improved. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis showed that the Zn 2p3/2 and S 2p peaks of the electron beam irradi…
Electromagnetic levitation was used to melt and solidify containerlessly Nd–Fe–B alloys. A method was developed to reduce and evaporate stable solid Nd oxides at the surface of the liquid samples. The oxides otherwise limit the undercoolability of the highly reactive Nd-based alloys. In such a way, undercoolings up to…
Abstract The aim of this article is to show a new method of copolymerizing glycolide and caprolactone with the low‐toxicity zirconium(IV) acetylacetonate and zirconium(IV) chloride as initiators. Such initiators enabled us to obtain copolymers with very good efficiency and good mechanical properties. The reactivity of…
In this letter, we demonstrate rapid decomposition in Ge-doped SiO2 glass under high-energy electron irradiation, and comment on possible mechanisms for the interaction of the electron-beam with the glass. Nanometer-scale modifications in Ge-doped SiO2 glasses can be obtained by the redistribution of Ge in the glasses…
Crystalline films of tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum(III) (Alq) have been grown on poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) substrates. The nucleating ability of the PTFE substrate, which relies on a specific molecular structure, is discussed. The Figure shows the film morphology of a 15 nm Alq film deposited onto an orient…
