Abstract We aim to couple the electrospinning in‐line with solution chemistry to fabricate novel crosslinked polymer nanofibers. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was used as a model polymer due to its high amount of hydroxyl groups. To obtain ideal parameters for electrospinning, pure PVA was explored primarily. To gain cros…

For block-shaped dielectric gratings with two-dimensional periodicity, a spectral-domain volume integral equation is derived in which explicit Fourier factorization rules are employed. The Fourier factorization rules are derived from a projection-operator framework and enhance the numerical accuracy of the method, whi…

CO(2) is a major contaminant of renewable H(2) derived from biomass fermentation. The effect of the presence of CO(2) on the activity of alumina-supported Pt and Rh catalysts used for the hydrogenation of toluene at 348 K was investigated. The use of operando diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRIFTS) was crucial in un…

Distinctive diffuse scattering in the form of diffuse rings around Bragg positions has been observed in the diffraction patterns of a crystal of the N-terminal fragment of the Gag protein from Feline Foamy Virus. It is shown that these are caused by geometric frustration as molecules try to pack on the triangular b-c…
