The present investigation depicts the development of a simple and low cost method for the removal of color from textile dyeing and printing wastewater using ZnO as photocatalyst supported with porous activated carbon (AC). Photocatalytic degradation studies were carried out for water soluble toxic alizarin cyanin gree…
The dynamics of multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) alignment inside viscous media using electric fields is investigated. Electrical current measurements were performed in situ during the application of an electric field to liquid solutions of deionized water or dissolved polymer containing MWCNTs. The variation of elec…
Piezoresistive nanocomposites using alkyl-functionalized graphene (G-ODA) as a conducting filler and polydimethylsilicone (PDMS) as the polymer matrix were prepared and their piezoresistivity behavior was investigated. One-pot synthesis of G-ODA from graphite oxide and octadecylamine improved its dispersion in nonpola…
This investigation examines the protonation of diiron dithiolates, exploiting the new family of exceptionally electron-rich complexes Fe(2)(xdt)(CO)(2)(PMe(3))(4), where xdt is edt (ethanedithiolate, 1), pdt (propanedithiolate, 2), and adt (2-aza-1,3-propanedithiolate, 3), prepared by the photochemical substitution of…
By means of a true sensitivity enhancement for a solid-state NMR spectroscopy (SSNMR) experiment performed under dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) conditions, corresponding to 4-5 orders of magnitude of time savings compared with a conventional SSNMR experiment, it is shown that it is possible to record interface-sel…
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by the selective loss of upper and lower motor neurons, a cell type that is intrinsically more vulnerable than other cell types to exogenous stress. The interplay between genetic susceptibility and environmental exposures to toxins…
DyVO 4 /graphitic carbon nitride (DyVO 4 /g-C 3 N 4 ) composite photocatalyst with visible-light response was prepared by a milling and heating treatment method. The synthesized powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry/differential thermal analysis, N 2 adsorption, Fourier transform infrared spe…
Because of its ultrasensitivity, fluorescence offers a noninvasive means to investigate biomolecular mechanisms, pathways, and regulations in living cells, tissues, and animals. However, real-world applications of fluorescence technologies encounter many practical challenges. For example, the intrinsic heterogeneity o…
Highly oriented films of an electron accepting polymer semiconductor, poly{[N,N'-bis(2-octyldodecyl)-1,4,5,8-naphthalenedicarboximide-2,6-diyl]-alt-5,5'-(2,2'-bithiophene)} (PNDI2OD-T2), are obtained by two different methods, namely directional epitaxial crystallization (DEC) on 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene (TCB) and epitax…
In the past decade there has been tremendous interest in the development of organic porous materials due to their great potential in gas storage/separation and catalysis applications. These purely organic-based porous materials are constructed through covalent bonds and usually exhibit high chemical and thermal stabil…
In this paper, the inter-turn short circuit fault detection in permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM) using an open-loop physics-based back electromotive force (EMF) estimator is presented. The back EMF estimator is designed based upon a current mode tracking scheme. The thermal and saturation aspects of the mac…
The energetic driving force required to drive charge separation across donor/acceptor heterojunctions is a key consideration for organic optoelectronic devices. Herein we report a series of transient absorption and photocurrent experiments as a function of excitation wavelength and temperature for two low-band-gap pol…
Under high pressure, triply bonded molecular nitrogen dissociates into singly bonded polymeric nitrogen, a potential high-energy-density material. The discovery of stable high-pressure forms of polymeric nitrogen is of great interest. We report the striking stabilization of cagelike diamondoid nitrogen at high pressur…
Rice husk (RH), an inexpensive waste material, was used to produce nanosilica. Acid treatment of RH followed by thermal combustion under controlled conditions gave 22.50% ash of which 90.469% was silica. Various chemical treatments in varied conditions for controlled combustion were investigated in order to produce hi…
Abstract Electronic structure methods for molecular systems rely heavily on using basis sets composed of Gaussian functions for representing the molecular orbitals. A number of hierarchical basis sets have been proposed over the last two decades, and they have enabled systematic approaches to assessing and controlling…
Butanol is an important industrial solvent and advanced biofuel that can be produced by biphasic fermentation by Clostridium acetobutylicum. It has been known that acetate and butyrate first formed during the acidogenic phase are reassimilated to form acetone-butanol-ethanol (cold channel). Butanol can also be formed…
Consumer products, such as foods, contain numerous polymeric and particulate additives that play critical roles in maintaining their stability, quality and function. The resulting materials exhibit complex bulk and interfacial rheological responses, and often display a distinctive power-law response under standard rhe…

Factors in polypyridyl ligands that control their thermodynamic metal ion selectivity in aqueous solution, and their use in selective fluorescent sensing, are examined. Preorganization of polypyridyl ligands ranging from bidentate to tetradentate by bridging benzo groups, as are present in 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) c…
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), a new class of crystalline molecular solids built from linking organic ligands with metal or metal-cluster connecting points, have recently emerged as a versatile platform for developing single-site solid catalysts. MOFs have been used to drive a range of reactions, including Lewis aci…
