We investigate the thermal conduction properties of a one-dimensional lattice of atoms carrying classical spins and coupled vibrationally. The spin degrees of freedom interact via a classical Heisenberg interaction, while the vibrational degrees of freedom are coupled through nearest-neighbor linear as well as nonline…

Abstract A microemulsion polymerization for the synthesis of poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) nanoparticles is described. Spherical and electrically conducting PEDOT particles with diameters as small as 27 ± 8 nm were obtained by using decyltrimethylammonium bromide as a cationic surfactant. PEDOT nanoparticle…

Abstract Poly( ε ‐caprolactone) (PCL)/montmorillonite (MMT) nanocomposites were prepared by in situ ring‐opening polymerization of ε ‐caprolactone in the presence of MMT modified by hydroxyl‐group containing alkylammonium cation (Cloisite®30B) in a single mode microwave oven. For the polymerization mixtures, plateaus…

Abstract A melt compounding process was used to prepare hybrid nanocomposites based on natural rubber (NR) and montmorillonite (MMT) modified with octadecylamine. Cured rubber was subjected to complex testing. Most likely modified MMT participates in physical networking of a low‐temperature topological region (soft am…

Abstract We propose a Galerkin finite element method for numerically modeling the process of heat and moisture transfer in porous clothing assemblies, which takes into account radiative heat transfer and sorption of water vapor into the fibers of the medium. We prove an optimal‐order error estimate for the finite elem…

Differential growth: The growth of crystals of α-resorcinol (see picture; C gray, H white, O red) from the vapor phase is asymmetric along the polar axis. By means of molecular-dynamics simulations, the slower growth at the (011) polar surface is traced back to conformational change of the molecule and to surface reco…

Double-hydrophilic block copolymer (DHBC)-directed mineralization is investigated by dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) simulation. By mineralization, we refer to the formation of inorganic crystals from the solution. In the current study, the DHBCs are modeled as chains of A and B blocks with repulsion between unlik…

A series of polyphenylene dendrimers (PDs) incorporating additional pentafluorophenyl units have been synthesized. A key building block thereby is the tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)cyclopentadienone, which serves as the end-capper for making the outer shells of the dendrimers. The variation of the peripheral pentafluorop…

We present the 2D self-assembly properties of an amyloid-like peptide (LSFDNSGAITIG-NH2) (i.e., LSFD) over a whole range of spatial scales. This peptide is known to adopt an amyloid-like behavior in water where it aggregates into fibrils. Monolayers of this 12 amino acid peptide were built by direct spreading and comp…
