The polymer-derived ceramics (PDCs) route has been combined with a warm-pressing process to synthesize for the first time boron nitride workpieces avoiding the conventional sintering process. A polyborazylene was synthesized with a controlled degree of cross-linking suitable to be warm-pressed into cylindrical green b…

Abstract Great achievements have been made in the research of biobased thermoplastic polymers, but the progress concerning thermosetting resins has been minor. In particular, research on high‐performance thermosetting polymers from renewable feedstock has not been reported elsewhere. A novel biobased epoxy was synthes…

Introduction Although studied less than aquatic diatoms, aerial diatoms are discussed in an extensive literature. Most publications on the topic consist merely of floristic lists. Thus our understanding of aerial diatom ecology is meager. Given the brevity of the current chapter, it is not possible to list all of the…

The growth of metal oxide nanocrystals with a well-organized crystalline phase is of fundamental and technological interest because in this way it is possible to tune their size-dependent unique properties. In this communication, we demonstrate the selective growth of monoclinic and tetragonal ZrO(2) nanocrystals of <…

We review the transmission properties of carriers interacting with potential barriers in graphene. The tunneling of electrons and holes in quantum structures in graphene is found to display features that are in marked contrast with those of other systems. In particular, the interaction between the carriers with electr…

Abstract In this study, a novel synthetic route was developed to prepare polyimide–nanocrystalline–titania hybrid optical films with a relatively high titania content (up to 50 wt %) and thickness (20–30 μm) from soluble polyimides containing hydroxyl groups. Two series of newly soluble polyimides were synthesized fro…

In the present communication, synthesis and characterization of short Saccaharum cilliare fiber reinforced resorcinol–formaldehyde (RF) polymer matrix-based composites through compression molding technique are reported. Experimental results reveal that when Saccaharum cilliare fibers are incorporated into the resorcin…

We calculate numerically the normal modes of vibrations in three-dimensional jammed packings of soft spheres as a function of the packing fraction and obtain the energy diffusivity, a spectral measure of transport that controls sound propagation and thermal conductivity. The crossover frequency between weak and strong…

A dynamical nonequilibrium temperature has been proposed to describe relaxational equations for the heat flux. This temperature provides an alternative description to the Maxwell-Cattaneo equation. In the linear regime and in bulk systems both descriptions are equivalent but this is not so when nonlinear effects are i…

We study the conductance of mesoscopic graphene rings in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field by means of numerical calculations based on a tight-binding model. First, we consider the magnetoconductance of such rings and observe the Aharonov–Bohm effect. We investigate different regimes of the magnetic flux…

Abstract Chemistry of 2‐oxazolines is involved in the polymer synthesis fields of cationic ring‐opening polymerization (CROP) and enzymatic ring‐opening polyaddition (EROPA), although both polymerizations look like a quite different class of reaction. The key for the polymerization to proceed is combination of the cat…

The role of reduced dimensionality and of the surface on electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling in silicon nanowires is determined from first principles. Surface termination and chemistry is found to have a relatively small influence, whereas reduced dimensionality fundamentally alters the behavior of deformation potentials.…

Looking without touching: The light-controlled isomerization of a complex containing a pyridine-appended dithienylethene (DTE; green) and a porphyrin dimer induces dramatic structural and spectral changes (see picture). These changes are monitored in a region outside the photochromically active absorption bands of DTE…
