The clinical application of macromolecular Gd(III) complexes as MRI contrast agents is impeded by their slow excretion and potential toxicity due to the release of Gd(III) ions caused by the metabolism of the agents. A polymer Gd(III) chelate conjugate with a cleavable spacer has been designed to solve this problem. P…
A number of biological systems have developed highly orchestrated detoxification mechanisms toward the bioreduction and mineralization of noble metals. These systems incorporate small peptides and proteins as nucleation sites for metal binding and nanocluster stabilization. Herein, we present the use of biologically r…
We explore the morphological stability during the growth of strained multilayer structures in a dynamical model which describes the coupling of elastic fields, wetting effect, and deposition process. We quantitatively show the significant influence of the wetting effect on the stability properties, in particular for s…
The structural, electronic, and spectroscopic properties of a high-pressure phase of methane hydrate (MH-III) are studied by first principles electronic structure calculations. A detailed analysis of the atomic positions suggests that {\it ionization} of hydrogen-bonded water molecules occurs around 40GPa and {\it cen…
We have studied oil-in-water emulsions stabilized by monodisperse, fluorescent silica colloids presenting either a smooth or a rough surface. The presence of the fluorescent core allows for direct visualization of the colloids on the surface of the emulsion droplets. Droplet interfacial tension, measured by micropipet…

The thermal expansion and the magnetic susceptibility under ambient pressure and the temperature dependence of electrical resistivity under applied pressures for β-Mn 1− x Os x alloys have been investigated. The concentration dependence of the spontaneous volume magneto-striction at 0 K, ω mag (0), exhibits a broad ma…
A structural instability of flexoelectric origin is predicted in a homeotropic cell, of insulating nematic liquid crystal, by the action of an electric field applied in the direction of the initially nonperturbed nematic director. The instability gives rise to a two-dimensional periodic structure. The critical field t…
GIS was first developed in various countries between 1968 and 1972. After about 5 years of experience, the use rate increased to about 20% of new substations in countries where space is limited. In other countries with space easily available, the higher cost of GIS relative to AIS has limited use to special cases. For…
Abstract Effective recovery processes for the Nd–Fe–B sintered magnet scrap (sludge) powders as α-Fe/Nd2O3 nanocomposite magnetic particles were established, so that the resin-bonded sheets produced from them showed good microwave absorption properties over a range of 4–8 GHz.
${\ensuremath{\gamma}}^{\ensuremath{'}}$-${\mathrm{F}\mathrm{e}}_{4}\mathrm{N}$ was subjected to electron irradiation with the dose rate of $6.8\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{23}e\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{m}}^{\ensuremath{-}2}\text{ }{\mathrm{s}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ in a 400 kV transmission electron microscope.…
Models of apocrustacyanin C(1) were refined against X-ray data recorded on Bending Magnet 14 at the ESRF to resolutions of 1.85 and 2 A from a space-grown and an earth-grown crystal, respectively, both using vapour-diffusion crystal-growth geometry. The space crystals were grown in the APCF on the NASA Space Shuttle.…
Abstract Polyurethane/clay nanocomposites have been synthesized using Na + ‐montmorillonite (Na + ‐MMT)/amphiphilic urethane precursor (APU) chains that have hydrophilic polyethylene oxide (PEO) chains and hydrophobic segments at the same molecules. Nanocomposites were synthesized through two different crosslinking po…
We present the results of crystallographic measurements on samples of two latexes: one with a relatively symmetric particle size distribution, and another with a highly skewed pseudobimodal distribution. For the skewed latex, crystallites are clearly visible, but they exhibit only a single Bragg reflection, indicating…
The crystal structure of a hypothetical protein AQ_1354 (gi 2983779) from the hyperthermophilic bacteria Aquifex aeolicus has been determined using X-ray crystallography. As found in many structural genomics studies, this protein is not associated with any known function based on its amino-acid sequence. PSI-BLAST ana…
The pressure behavior of Mn 2+ emission in the 10-, 4.5-, 3.5-, 3-, and 1-nm-sized ZnS:Mn 2+ nanoparticles is investigated. The emission shifts to lower energies with increasing pressure, and the shift rate (the absolute value of the pressure coefficient) is larger in the ZnS:Mn 2+ nanoparticles than in bulk. The pres…
Tetranuclear [Cu(4)mu(2)-dppm)(3)(mu(2)-mu(2)-NS(2))(mu(2)-mu(4)-NS(2))] (1) and pentanuclear [Cu(5)(mu(2)-dppm)(4)(mu(3)-mu-(3)-NS(2))(2)]PF(6) (2.PF(6)) (dppm = bis(diphenylphoshino)methane, NS(2)(2)(-) = 1,8-naphthalenedithiolate) were synthesized from the reactions between NS(2)(2)(-) and [Cu(2)(mu(2)-dppm)(2)(CH(…
The heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenation of polystyrene (PS) dissolved in decahydronaphthalene was studied in a batch reactor using 5% Pd/BaSO 4 as the catalyst. The effects of temperature and H 2 partial pressure were investigated over the ranges from 90 to 180 °C and 1.72 to 6.89 MPa. The PS concentration ranged fr…
Abstract Periodic mesoporous organosilicas have been successfully functionalized with sulfonic acid groups. The resulting materials exhibit much higher catalytic activity than ZSM-5 zeolite and higher catalytic stability than MCM-41 functionalized with the same group.
