The deactivation of a commercial selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst of type V 2 O 5 −WO 3 /TiO 2 has been studied in this work through comparisons of results from a full-scale biomass combustion plant with those from laboratory experiments. In the latter, the catalyst was exposed to KCl, K 2 SO 4, and ZnCl 2…
The size-temperature "phase diagram" for Lennard-Jones clusters LJn with sizes up to n=147 is constructed based on the analysis of the heat capacities and orientational bond order parameter distributions computed by the exchange Monte Carlo method. Two distinct types of "phase transitions" accompanied by peaks in the…
Cutting of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) has been achieved by extensive ozonolysis at room temperature. Perfluoropolyether (PFPE) was selected as a medium for cutting SWNT due to its high solubility for ozone (O3). A mixture of 9 wt % of O3 in O2 was bubbled through a homogeneous suspension of pristine SWNT in…
A dendron ligand with two carboxylate anchoring groups at its focal point and eight hydroxyl groups as its terminal groups was found to efficiently convert as-synthesized CdSe/CdS core-shell nanocrystals in toluene to water-soluble dendron-ligand stabilized nanocrystals (dendron nanocrystals). The resulting dendron na…
The characterization of silk properties requires a reliable measurement of stress-strain curves from tensile tests, which calls for a detailed analysis of what is considered the cross section of the sample and how it varies during the experiments. Here, spider silk fibers from the major ampullate gland (MAS) of Argiop…
Cu-exchanged Y zeolite was investigated in order to determine the location of the copper cations relative to the zeolite framework and to determine which Cu cations are active for the oxidative carbonylation of methanol to dimethyl carbonate (DMC). Cu-Y zeolite was prepared by vapor-phase exchange of H-Y with CuCl. Th…
Three branched poly(thienylene vinylene)s, i.e., poly(thienylene vinylene) derivatives with bi(thienylene vinylene) side chains (biTV−PTVs), biTV−PTV1−3, were synthesized for obtaining the conjugated polymers with broad and strong visible absorption spectra. The polymers were characterized by thermogravimetric analysi…
We study the structure of carboxylic acid terminated neutral poly(propyl ether imine) (PETIM) dendrimer from generations 1-6 (G1-G6) in a good solvent (water) by fully atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. We determine as a function of generation the structural properties such as radius of gyration, shape ten…
A nonequilibrium Green's function approach is employed to investigate the spin-Hall effect in diffusive two-dimensional electron systems with Rashba spin-orbit interaction. Considering a long-range electron-impurity scattering potential in the self-consistent Born approximation, we find that the spin-Hall effect arise…
Employing a nonequilibrium Green's function approach, we examine the effects of long-range hole-impurity scattering on spin-Hall current in $p$-type bulk semiconductors within the framework of the self-consistent Born approximation. We find that, contrary to the null effect of short-range scattering on spin-Hall curre…
Current approaches to the synthesis of metal oxides generally require harsh conditions. In contrast, many biological processes can produce intricate metal oxide nanostructures under ambient conditions. For example, the diatom Cylindrotheca fusiformis forms reproducible nanostructures from silicic acid using species sp…
Undecagold cluster compounds [Au11(BINAP)4X2]+ (X = Cl and Br) were synthesized by chemical reduction of the corresponding precursor complexes, Au2X2(BINAP), where BINAP represents the bidentate phosphine ligand 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl. The circular dichroism spectra of Au11 stabilized by the enant…

Two-dimensional (2D) CuO layered oval nanosheets and three-dimensional (3D) nanoellipsoids were grown on a large scale at ∼65 °C by a facile template-free method. Shape and dimensionality control of well-defined CuO single crystals could be achieved by simple variations of pH value. At pH 8.5, CuO nanosheets were obta…
Ionic liquids are shown to provide advantageous media for amineborane-based chemical hydrogen storage systems. Both the extent and rate of hydrogen release from ammonia borane dehydrogenation are significantly increased at 85, 90, and 95 degrees C when the reactions are carried out in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chlor…
A new empirical pairwise potential model for ionic and semi-ionic oxides has been developed. Its transferability and reliability have been demonstrated by testing the potentials toward the prediction of structural and mechanical properties of a wide range of silicates of technological and geological importance. The pa…

Abstract In the present study, first, maleic anhydride‐styrene (MA‐St), maleic anhydride‐allyl phenyl ether (MA‐APhE), maleic anhydride‐heptene‐1(MA‐Hp), and maleic anhydride‐allyl propionate (MA‐AP) copolymers have been synthesized in different solvents in the presence of azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) at 70°C. Then,…
Abstract A systematic approach is developed to study the ligno sulfonic acid sodium salt (LSA) protonation or doping process with polyaniline emeraldine base (Pani‐EB) in organic solvents like dimethyl sulfoxide, and the influence of LSA‐doping on the properties of polyaniline was investigated in detail. The compositi…
