Postpolymerization modification reactions are widely employed to prepare functional polymer brushes. Relatively little is known, however, about the distribution of functional groups in such postmodified brushes. Using neutron reflectometry and UV–vis spectroscopy as principal tools, this article investigates the p -ni…

Reaction of a benzocarbaporphyrin with methyl or ethyl iodide and potassium carbonate in refluxing acetone primarily afforded the 22-alkylation products. Subsequent metalation with palladium(II) acetate in refluxing acetonitrile gave the palladium(II) organometallic derivatives where the alkyl group had migrated to th…

The combination of Ca(BH 4 ) 2 and MgH 2 materials results in a composite with remarkable hydrogen storage properties. However, full reversibility upon the (re)hydrogenation reaction has not yet been achieved. The poor reversibility is shown to be linked to the formation of stable intermediate phases or side products…

Abstract Uses of flexible poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) are restricted by plasticizer migration affecting material properties. Moreover, the use of phthalate‐based plasticizers is being questioned worldwide because of their potential toxicity to humans and environment. Chemical modification of PVC structure is one of the…

Transparent nanostructured glasses show interesting properties for optical fibers or laser beam applications. Binary calcium silicate glasses are known to undergo phase separation in silica-rich compositions. However, adding up to a few mole percent of alumina seems to inhibit the phase separation. By adjusting the am…

It has been demonstrated that there is a mechanochemical relationship between collagen and collagenolytic enzymes such that increased tensile mechanical strain reduces the enzymatic cutting rate. This mechanochemical relationship has the potential to permit directed remodelling of tissue-engineered constructs in vitro…

The density functional theory is used to study the effect of lattice strain on hydrogen diffusion in Pd. The activation energy for this process is found to increase dramatically with increasing compressive lattice strain. In particular, the activation energy is close to double for an isotropic compression of 5% both i…

Epitaxial films of In(2)O(3) have been grown on Y-stabilised ZrO(2)(111) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy over a range of thicknesses between 35 and 420 nm. The thinnest films are strained, but display a 'cross-hatch' morphology associated with a network of misfit dislocations which allow partial accommodation of…
