Novel polymer biomaterials, which can be used in contact with blood, are prepared with strong inspiration from the surface structure of biomembrane. That is, the polymers with a phospholipid polar group in the side chain, 2-methacrylooyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) polymers were synthesized. The MPC polymers can i…

We present a comprehensive theory of the magnetization relaxation in a ${\mathrm{Mn}}_{12}$-acetate crystal in the high-temperature regime $(T\ensuremath{\gtrsim}1 \mathrm{K}),$ which is based on phonon-assisted spin tunneling induced by quartic magnetic anisotropy and weak transverse magnetic fields. The overall rela…

Although nitinol is one of most popular materials of intravascular stents, there are still few confirmative biocompatibility data available, especially in vascular smooth muscle cells. In this report, the nitinol wires were corroded in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium with constant electrochemical breakdown voltage…

We report the emission and upconversion spectra and the lifetimes of Er3+ doped Y2O3 nanocrystalline and bulk samples. We found that when the nanocrystal and bulk samples of Y1.80Er0.20O3 were excited at 815 nm, the overall emission intensity was stronger for the bulk sample. However, the relative intensity of the (2H…

We study relaxation properties of two-body collisions on the mean-field level. We show that this process exhibits multiscaling asymptotic behavior as the underlying distribution is characterized by an infinite set of nontrivial exponents. These nonequilibrium relaxation characteristics are found to be closely related…

Nanocomposites of polystyrene and several organophilic clays have been prepared by a bulk polymerization technique. The resulting polymers have an intercalated structure and show enhanced thermal stability, as measured by thermogravimetric analysis and cone calorimetry, relative to virgin polystyrene, even when as lit…

Nickel-titanium (NiTi) alloy derives its biocompatibility and good corrosion resistance from a homogeneous oxide layer mainly composed of TiO(2), with a very low concentration of nickel. In this article, we described the corrosion behavior of NiTi alloys after mechanical polishing, electropolishing, and sterilization…

Ligands of general formula N(CHRCH2OH)(CH2CO2H)2 have been used to capture portions of the Fe(OH)2+ lattice to give particles containing up to nineteen magnetically coupled iron(III) centres. If R = Me or Et, lattices containing only Fe19 clusters result and single crystal X-ray diffraction shows that these are arrang…

BETS-based salts (BETS = bis(ethylenedithio)tetraselenafulvalene) incorporating Fe3+ ions are most interesting candidate systems for the observation of interplay of conductivity and magnetism. Indeed, in λ-(BETS)2FeCl4, conduction electrons in the BETS layers do interact with spins localised on the (FeCl4)− anions. Sy…
