Abstract Thiadiazole compounds including 3-hydroxy-4-substituted-1,2,5-thiadiazole are known as non-nucleoside inhibitors of HIV-1. Density functional calculations at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level were employed to determine the stability, tautomerism, and substituent effects of 1,2,5-thiadiazole, a widely used skin-wh…

Graphene film was fabricated using graphene oxide (GO) prepared from a modified Hummers' method. The reduction of GO (rGO) was accomplished by coating the GO paste on a piece of glass and immersing into a Ti+3solution. The freeze drying (FD) process employed for drying GO before its forming of paste and coating into a…
