The authors show that carbon nanotubes (CNTs) coated with an amorphous silicon layer around their periphery show enhanced and stable electron emission. The CNT-field emitter array was grown on silicon substrate through a resist-assisted patterning process. The CNTs become coated with silicon from the substrate, which…
A mathematical model is proposed for calculating the stress-strain state of a cylindrical specimen, which arises as a result of plastic surface hardening leading to material deformation anisotropy. The model adequacy is verified through comparisons with experimental data for cylindrical specimens made of 30KhGSA and S…
Abstract Summary: Layered double hydroxide (LDH) is a relatively new class of layered crystalline clay materials to be used as nanofiller in various polymer matrices. We report here the organic modification of LDH by anionic surfactants having different sizes and functionalities. Subsequently, their dispersion in poly…
Strain mediated magnetoelectric (ME) interactions have been investigated in a sample consisting of oppositely poled lead zirconate titanate (PZT) and asymmetric magnetostrictive layers. A thin layer of Ni with negative magnetostriction and amorphous ferromagnetic Metglas with positive magnetostriction are bonded to th…
Creating orthopedic implants that locally deliver drugs is an appealing approach to induce bone regeneration and prevent or treat infections. In this study, titanium K-wires were coated with poly(D,L-lactide) (PDLLA) solutions with different polymer/solvent/drug ratios to modify the release kinetics of the antibiotic…
Abstract Radical catalyzed thiol‐ene reaction has become a useful alternative to the Huisgen‐type click reaction as it helps to expand the variability in reaction conditions as well as the range of clickable entities. Thus, direct generation of hyperbranched polymers bearing peripheral allyl groups that could be click…
Nanoscale MgO powders were fabricated via a microwave-induced solution combustion process using Mg(NO3)2 and starch as starting materials. Effects of the relative fuel-to-oxidant ratios (φe = 1.1, 1.0, 0.9 and 0.8, respectively) on characteristics of MgO nanoparticles were also investigated. The XRD analysis discloses…
The current refrigerators are based on the heating and cooling of fluids under external pressure variation. The great inconvenience of this refrigeration technology is the damage caused to the environment by the refrigerant fluids. In this paper, we discuss the magnetic barocaloric effect, i.e., the heating or cooling…
It is critically important to study the dynamic response of materials under a combined compression-shear loading for developing constitutive laws more accurately and fully. We present a novel technique to achieve the combined compression and shear loadings at high strain rates. The main apparatus consists of a strike…
The catalytic combustion of ethyl acetate has been investigated in a series of mono-metal silver and bimetal Ag-M (M: Fe, Co and Mn)-modified HZSM-5 zeolites. The objective was to find a catalyst with high superior activity, selectivity towards deep oxidation product and stability. The catalyst activity was measured u…
Oligophenol-based poly(azomethine-urethane)s (PAMUs) were newly synthesized in two steps. At the first step, the prepolymers including the phenol and oligophenol based-Schiff bases were prepared by a condensation reaction of o-dianisidine with 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde/3-ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, and the polycondensat…
Abstract A supramolecular heteropolyoxovanadate structure has been synthesized and characterized using single‐crystal XRD, powder XRD and a range of spectroscopic methods. The new compound, [ t BuNH(C 2 H 4 OH) 2 ] 4 [H 5 P 1 V 14 O 42 ] · 12H 2 O ( 1 ) was obtained using a one‐pot strategy starting from a simple inor…
Symmetric supercapacitors (SSC) and asymmetric supercapacitors (ASC) that use carbon xerogels with different porous textures as negative electrode and manganese oxide as positive electrode were investigated. The electrochemical performance of symmetric supercapacitors with carbon xerogel electrodes was mainly influenc…
A field emission (FE) study by scanning anode field emission microscopy was performed to evaluate the FE properties of vertically aligned zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowire arrays electrodeposited on a plane conductive surface. The specific FE behaviors of the cathode observed experimentally are (1) a turn-on macroscopic field…
A brief review of properties of the ferromagnetic manganites La1 − x Ca x MnO3 is given. Lattice properties, magnetic properties, transport phenomena, magnetic resonance, and the results of neutron diffraction and optical studies are considered. Special attention is paid to effects observed near the Curie temperature.
In the study, the effect of refining and fractionation of wood fibres on fibre morphology and biocomposite properties was determined. Kraft pine pulp and thermomechanical pulp were selected for the fibre treatments. Effects of physical treatment on fibre morphology were analysed with a fibre analyser and microscopy te…
Abstract Novel linear homogeneous polyurethanes and polyureas with enhanced hydrophilic character have been successfully prepared from sugar‐based monomers having their hydroxyl groups free or partially protected. By the reaction of primary hydroxyl groups of xylitol with dimethyl hexamethylene dicarbamate (HMDC) or d…
We have synthesized two divanadates M2V2O7 (M2+ = Co2+ and Cu2+), that are known to show different and complex magnetic arrangements at low temperatures and have studied their dielectric behavior. We have observed a change in the slope of the dielectric constant at the magnetic transition temperature, result which con…
Zinc Oxide ( ZnO ) nanoparticles were created by a top-down wet-chemistry synthesis process ( ZnO - A ) and then coated with polyvinyl-alcohol (PVA) ( ZnO - U ). In ZnO - U , strong UV emission was apparent while the parasitic green emission, which normally appears in ZnO suspensions, was suppressed. A standard lift-o…
Semiconductor nanoparticles, such as quantum dots (QDs), were used to carry out experiments in vivo and ex vivo with Trypanosoma cruzi. However, questions have been raised regarding the nanotoxicity of QDs in living cells, microorganisms, tissues and whole animals. The objective of this paper was to conduct a QD nanot…
