Soluble materials placed inside opened SWNTs can be contained using fullerenes to block the ends, thereby providing a way to remove the excess of external soluble material present in the initial product formed by low temperature filling of open-ended single wall carbon nanotubes; the C60-blocked filled SWNTs can then…

A micro-stratified 3D scaffold was designed by successive stacking of alginate gel layers (AGLs) and poly(l-lysine)-hyaluronic acid (PLL-HA) multilayer films. AGLs are obtained by complexation of alginate by Ca2+ ions. Alginate solutions are first sprayed onto a solid substrate inclined such that the excess of solutio…

This investigation presents a novel method for modifying multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The morphology, electrical resistivity, and percolation threshold of MWCNT/Polyimide nanocomposites were studied. Acid‐modified MWCNTs reacted with (3‐aminopropyl)triethoxysilane by ionic bonding, and were then mixed with p…

O elevado teor de matéria orgânica dos Organossolos confere-lhes características edáficas próprias, que podem ser contrastantes em relação ao observado em solos minerais. Devido à forte interação entre a matéria orgânica e os elementos a ela adsorvidos, os métodos de rotina em fertilidade do solo podem não avaliar de…

The carbonyl-ruthenium substituted undecatungstosilicate [alpha-SiW(11)O(39)Ru(II)(CO)](6-) () was isolated as a caesium salt and successfully characterized by using (183)W and (13)C NMR, elemental analysis, IR, UV-vis and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Polyanion represents the first example of a metal-carbonyl moiety being…

In this work, we have explored new stable structures of the Au32Z (Z = +1, 0, -1) clusters. Theoretical calculations using density functional theory within the generalized-gradient approximation were performed. Our results show that, in the anion state (Au32-), low-symmetry (disordered) structures are preferred over t…

This paper describes the growth of polypyrrole (PPy) layers over polystyrene (PS) nanofibers via a vapor phase polymerization process. PS nanofibers were produced through electrospinning of PS solutions containing chemical oxidants capable of polymerizing pyrrole monomers. The electrospun PS nanofibers provided a robu…

Low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) has been used to measure reflectivity of low-energy electrons for graphene layers grown on Si-terminated 6H-SiC(0001) and 4H-SiC(0001) substrates and C-terminated 4H-SiC(000-1) substrates. We observe quantized oscillations in the reflectivity on all the substrates. The number of g…
