The bulk dynamics of immiscible polymer blends during flow is relatively well understood, especially when the system contains Newtonian components. Recently, a number of studies have focused on flow of immiscible blends in confined geometries. In that case, the morphology development is not only affected by the materi…

Photoluminescent silicon nanoparticles have a bright and stable fluorescence and are promising candidates for bio-imaging, cell staining and drug delivery. With increasing development of nanotechnology applications for biomedicine, an understanding of the potential toxicity of nanoparticles is needed to assess safety…

Unregulated cellular proliferation, caused by mutation or dysregulation of growth-promoting proteins, is an underlying cause of cancer. Many such growth-promoting proteins exhibit an increased dependence on the activity of the chaperone heat-shock protein 90 (Hsp90) for correct folding and maturation in the cell. One…

Development of biologically relevant crowding solutions necessitates improved understanding of how the relative size and density of mobile obstacles affect probe diffusion. Both the crowding density and relative size of each co-solute in a mixture will contribute to the measured microviscosity as assessed by altered t…

Five conjugated pyrido[3,4- b ]pyrazine-based donor−acceptor copolymers were synthesized by Suzuki and Stille coupling polymerizations, and their photophysical and electrochemical properties and field-effect carrier mobilities were characterized. The copolymer semiconductors include poly(pyrido[3,4- b ]pyrazine- alt -…

Abstract The use of complex mechanisms is increasing within models describing a range of important chemical processes, including combustion. Parameters describing chemical reaction rates and thermodynamics can often be very uncertain. Highlighting the main parameters contributing to predictive uncertainty is an import…

Spin-echo small-angle neutron scattering (SESANS) is, in contrast to conventional small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), a real-space technique. SESANS measures the projection of the density–density correlation function of a sample, rather than, as in SANS, its Fourier transform. This paper introduces a toolkit for in…

Abstract Cu(I)Br/Me6‐TREN species are unstable and disproportionate into metallic Cu(0) and Cu(II)Br2/Me6‐TREN in DMSO, whereas in toluene are stable and do not undergo disproportionation, at least at 25 °C. To estimate the role of the disproportionating solvent in single electron‐transfer living radical polymerizatio…

Abstract Sapwood chips and ground wood of spruce have been extracted with pressurised pure water in an accelerated solvent extractor at temperatures from 100 to 180°C. The water extracts were freeze-dried, weighed, and analysed for carbohydrates by acid methanolysis followed by GC determination of monomeric sugars. Li…

Two new tetraphenylethylene (TPE) compounds 1 and 2 bearing adenine and thymine moieties, respectively, were found to be fluorescence "turn on" chemosensors for Ag(+) and Hg(2+) by making use of the AIE feature of TPE motif and the specific binding of adenine/thymine with Ag(+)/Hg(2+).

We study the influence of disorder strength on the interface roughening process in a phase-field model with locally conserved dynamics. We consider two cases where the mobility coefficient multiplying the locally conserved current is either constant throughout the system (the two-sided model) or becomes zero in the ph…
