We have determined by (15)N, (1)H, and (13)C NMR, the chemical behavior of the six histidines in subtilisin BPN' and their PMSF and peptide boronic acid complexes in aqueous solution as a function of pH in the range of from 5 to 11, and have assigned every (15)N, (1)H, C(epsilon 1), and C(delta2) resonance of all His…
Abstract Studies on the relationship between resistivity and dynamic rheological properties of carbon black‐filled high‐density polyethylene (CB/HDPE) composites were carried out. Change of resistivity ρ is associated with the dynamic modulus before the positive temperature coefficient/negative temperature coefficient…
Crystallization of 1,1-dicyano-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-ethene ( I ) and 1,1-dicyano-2-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-ethene ( II ) with l -proline ( III ) and l -tartaric acid ( IV ) was carried out. Compound I formed cocrystals with l -proline I·III . However, cocrystallization of II was unsuccessful; instead in the presenc…
Liquid gallium was used as a viable and effective solvent and template for high-yield growth of multiwall carbon nanotubes. The gallium-mediated nanotubes thus obtained differ morphologically from nanotubes obtained by using transition metals as catalysts. The nanotubes have a pin-like morphology, generally composed o…
Abstract Sub‐micrometer layers of electrochemically prepared methyl‐ and decyl‐substituted poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) carrying perchlorate counterions have been examined with grazing incidence X‐ray diffraction with synchrotron radiation. The materials were found to be partially crystalline, and the data…
Abstract Ultrafine fibrous (ϕ from 100 to 450 nm) cellulose membranes were generated by electrospinning of cellulose acetate [degree of substitution (DS): 2.45, weight‐average molecular weight: 30,000 Da], followed by alkaline deacetylation. Reaction of these ultrahigh surface‐area cellulose fibers with methacrylate c…
Density functional theory (DFT) electronic structure calculations were carried out to predict the triplet Jahn–Teller distorted structures and energetics for zinc complexes of porphyrin (ZnP), tetraazaporphyrin, tetrabenzoporphyrin, and phthalocyanine. The D4h square planar structures in the ground state are found to…
The dimerization, unimolecular methane ejection, and bimolecular methane metathesis reactions of L 2 MCH 3 species where L = H, Cl, Cp, and Cp* and M = Sc, Y, and Lu are modeled at the density functional level (B3LYP) using a relativistic effective core potential basis set. Results for cases with H or Cl ligands are i…
The microstructure of sputter-deposited Cu films is shown to be unstable at room temperature (RT). The average grain size increases significantly during RT storage for a couple of hours after deposition. This RT grain growth is shown to be very dependent on the deposition parameters (substrate temperature and sputter…
We use ab initio plane-wave density functional theory (PW-DFT) to investigate, for the first time, prospective solid base catalytic pathways within anionic clays. MgAl-layered double hydroxides (LDHs) intercalated with tert -butoxide anions are known to be excellent solid base catalysts for a wide range of reactions.…
Control of self-assembled nanostructures is a promising technique for nanotechnology. We have examined as to whether nanostructures could be controlled by the size of the central metal ion. Lanthanides are a natural choice for such a study as the size of their trivalent ions changes with atomic number gradually. For t…
By employing a nanosecond pump-probe method, biexciton formation process was investigated in ZnO/Zn1−xMgxO (x=0.26) multiple quantum wells (MQWs) grown on ScAlMgO4 substrate by laser molecular-beam epitaxy. Bleaching of absorption due to the saturation of excitonic states, and induced absorption related to the exciton…
Marrow-derived osteoblasts were cultured on poly(propylene fumarate-co-ethylene glycol) (P(PF-co-EG)) based hydrogels modified in bulk with a covalently linked RGDS model peptide. A poly(ethylene glycol) spacer arm was utilized to covalently link the peptide to the hydrogel. Three P(PF-co-EG) block copolymers were syn…
We present a new approach to the problem of finding the minimum-energy structures resulting from the self-assembly of amphiphile nanoparticles possessing a hydrophobic “tail” and a hydrophilic “head”. When the repulsive interactions between the “heads” are of hard-sphere type, the approach is rigorous and is reduced t…
Four lanthanide complexes of 1-hydroxy-2-pyridinone (HOPO) have been synthesised from aqueous solution at pH ≈ 7 and their structures and luminescent properties have been established. This ligand coordinates to lanthanide(III) ions as an anionic bidentate chelate (1-oxy-2-pyridinonate, OPO−) and crystallographic analy…
Abstract A method based on Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) transmission spectra is proposed to measure the crystallinity of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) samples. The method parameters were tuned as compared with wide‐angle X‐ray scattering measurements performed on test samples characterized by different crystallin…
The template method is a general approach for preparing nanomaterials, in particular nanowires and nanotubes. The ability to control the dimensions of the nanowires and tubes obtained is an important feature of the template method. Diameter can be controlled at will by varying the diameter of the pores in the template…
In this work, NiO thin film was prepared by the sol–gel technique and analysed by thermogravimetry, x-ray diffractometry and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The electrochromic characteristics were studied by ultraviolet spectroscopy. NiO thin film shows electrochromic characteristics. Its colour changes from transpa…
The possibility of controlling transport properties of colossal magnetoresistance manganite films using substrate-induced strain has attracted great interest. We have investigated transport properties of La0.9Ca0.1MnO3, La0.92Ba0.08MnO3, La0.8Ba0.2MnO3, and LaMnO3 films. When the films were post-annealed at proper con…
The physics underlying the dynamics of molecules near their glass temperature, Tg, comprises one of the major unsolved problems in condensed matter. Of particular interest are the striking changes in relaxation properties observed at temperatures ∼1.2 times higher than Tg. Herein, we describe experiments in which thes…
