As the use of wood-plastic composite (WPC) materials extends to include more structural applications, there is an increasing need to determine design values appropriate for designing structural WPC elements. Depending on specific formulations, WPCs can have significantly different stress-strain relationships. Common,…
The X-ray crystal structure of squid-type diisopropylfluorophosphatase (DFPase) has been refined to a resolution of 0.85 A and a crystallographic R value of 9.4%. Crystal annealing improved both the mosaicity and resolution of the crystals considerably. The overall structure of this protein represents a six-bladed bet…
Probabilistic methods involving maximum-likelihood parameter estimation have become a powerful tool in computational crystallography. At the centre of these methods are the relevant probability distributions. Here, equations are developed based on the complex multivariate normal distribution that generalize the distri…
Abstract The reduction of SO 2 on activated carbon was studied in the range of 600–700°C in a differential reactor under steady‐state conditions and under chemically controlled kinetics. Initial rates of carbon conversion and gas reagent were calculated from the mass balance of the gaseous products. The kinetics was f…
Heteronuclear NMR methods have been used to probe the conformation of four complexes of Escherichia coli dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) in solution. (1)H(N), (15)N, and (13)C(alpha) resonance assignments have been made for the ternary complex with folate and oxidized NADP(+) cofactor and the ternary complex with folat…
First-principles band structure calculations have been used to investigate epitaxially strained ${\mathrm{LaNiO}}_{3}$ films. Experimentally, tensile biaxial strain has been realized in pseudomorphic ${\mathrm{LaNiO}}_{3}$ films grown on ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}$ (001) substrates using ozone-assisted molecular beam epita…
The powder and single-crystal EPR spectra of Co(II)(OEP) (OEP is the dianion of octaethylporphyrin) doped into a range of diamagnetic crystals including simple four-coordinate hosts, H(2)(OEP), the triclinic B form of Ni(II)(OEP), the tetragonal form of Ni(II)(OEP) and Zn(II)(OEP); five-coordinate hosts, micro-dioxane…
This Letter describes the generation of 2D colloidal lattices in microchannels by coupling the laminar flow of dispersions of spherical colloids and geometrical confinement. We describe a nonequilibrium, convective, mechanism leading to formation of ordered 2D structures of both closed-packed hexagonal and non-closed-…
We report an experimental study that demonstrates control of the anchoring of a nematic liquid crystal (LC), 4‘-pentyl-4-cyanobiphenyl (5CB), at an aqueous−LC interface by the reversible adsorption of a redox-active surfactant, 11-(ferrocenylundecyl) trimethylammonium bromide (FTMA). Whereas the anchoring of 5CB was f…
A series of bis-iminonitroxide diradical derivatives of different lengths and geometry have been prepared that incorporate a conjugated phenylene-ethynylene bridge as a rigid spacer. This paper describes the synthesis of these new components and their main characterizations. An unexpected singlet ground state and subs…
Liquid crystals represent a unique class of self-organising systems, which although found in many day-to-day practical material applications, such as displays, are also intimately entwined with living processes. They have the potential, just like living systems, to provide us with a unique vehicle for the development…
Abstract Dynamic mechanical and thermal properties of poly(propylene) (PP)/wood fiber composites have been studied using Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA). In order to modify the PP matrix maleated poly(propylene) (PPMA) and poly(butadiene‐styrene) rubber were used as compatibilizer and impact modifier, respectively.…
Photoinduced magnetization of the cyano-bridged 3d-4f heterobimetallic assembly Nd(DMF)4(H2O)3(mu-CN)Fe(CN)5.H2O (1) (DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) is described in this paper. The chiMT values are enhanced by about 45% after UV light illumination in the temperature range of 5-50 K. We propose that UV light illumination…
This paper describes a strategy for functionalizing graphite and carbon nanotube surfaces with multilayered polymeric films. Poly(amphiphiles) adsorb noncovalently onto these surfaces from aqueous solutions, due to hydrophobic interactions. The covalent attachment of a second polymer layer to this initial adsorbed lay…
An experimental study of magnetic flux penetration under crossed magnetic fields in Bi2212:Pb single crystals is performed by the magneto-optic technique. The anisotropy of the flux creep rate induced by the in-plane magnetic field is observed at $T<54\pm 2$ K. This observation confirms the existence of the three-dime…
We report and discuss how gold nanoparticles were synthesized by the reduction of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate(III) trihydrate by sodium citrate in the presence of unmodified α-cyclodextrin (CD), β-CD, and γ-CD. Gold nanoparticles were immobilized on poly(diallyldimethylammonium) chloride (PDDA) modified glass slides to…
A spin-ice compound dysprosium titanate, Dy2Ti2O7, is studied by specific heat measurements in magnetic fields applied along the [110] direction of the cubic unit cell. Above a magnetic field of 0.4 T a relatively sharp peak at T = 1.1 K in the specific heat appears from a broad peak associated with spin-ice freezing…
For a class of frustrated spin lattices including e.g. the 1D sawtooth chain, the 2D kagomé and checkerboard, as well as the 3D pyrochlore lattices we construct exact product eigenstates consisting of several independent, localized one-magnon states in a ferromagnetic background. Important geometrical elements of the…
This contribution reviews the area of polymorph selection during solution crystallization using known and predicted structures. In particular, an overview of what has been learned about the relationship between structure and kinetics and of the interplay between thermodynamics and kinetics is presented. This review ad…
We synthesized novel l -lysine-based compounds that were classified into three groups, urea−urea types ( 1 − 3 ), amide−urea types ( 4 − 6 ), and amide−amide type ( 7 ), and examined the effects of hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions on the organogelation behavior. Among these compounds, gelator 5 has the…
