In 1910 Ivar Bang reported that concentrated solutions of guanylic acid formed a gel. It took half a century before Gellert et al. in 1962 discovered the structural motif, a guanine-quartet, to be the basis for guanylic acid gelation. This chapter starts with a historical overview and gives credit to Ivar Bang and sev…

Advances in synthesis are imperative if graphene is to fulfill its scientific and technological potential. Single crystal graphene of is currently available only in the small flakes generated by mechanical exfoliation. Layers of larger size may be grown either by the thermal decomposition of SiC or by chemical vapor d…

The goal of this doctoral work was to observe and analyze the stability and dynamics of phospholipid-encapsulated microbubbles, and in particular the reaction to sudden submersion in a multi-gas medium. To accomplish this goal, first an experimental technique was developed to observe a microbubble in a single-gas envi…

The resistance of acetylated rattan against soft rot and other soil inhabiting micro-organisms was compared to beech and Scots pine woods. Calamus manan grown under rubber tree canopy aged 10 and I3 years was acetylated to different levels by reaction times (0.25 to 30 hour) and was tested to soft rot decay for 32 wee…

There were recent studies suggesting that nano-carbon materials could enhance the crystallinity development or the charge mobility of conjugated polymers. It is highly tempting to speculate that the enhanced charge mobility might be a result of morphological changes in the matrix polymer. By use of wide-angle X-ray sc…

When the initial reaction temperature is low, the oxidation process of alkanes with three or more carbon atoms is characterized by the low temperature oxidation (LTO) process. This process is controlled by RO2 Chemistry and H₂O2 Chemistry (Route 1). When the initial temperature is higher than LTO end temperature, the…

LiBH4 is a potential hydrogen storage material and gains lots of interests recently due to its extremely high hydrogen capacity (18.4 wt%). However, the initial decomposition (Ti) and main dehydrogenation temperatures (Tm) of LiBH4 are as high as 560 and 750 K, respectively. In order to overcome the drawbacks, several…
