The crystallization behavior of the poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) component in poly(butylene succinate) (PBS)/PEO blends with the middle PEO content was investigated as a function of isothermal crystallization temperature of the PBS component ( T IC,PBS ) using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It is found that th…

Graphitic impurity nanoparticles were reorganized outside and inside of carbon nanotubes to produce novel tube-in-tube nanostructures. The graphitic nanoparticles were disintegrated into small graphene sheets by an intercalation−exfoliation process with nitric acid, during which the graphene sheets were simultaneously…

We focus on the role of water in a protein-resistant poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) layer. Using the combination of two experimental techniques, namely, the extended surface forces apparatus and the quartz crystal microbalance, we demonstrate that the water content inside these surface-grafted layers is over 80 vol % whi…

CO2 gas was used to construct novel types of supramolecular polymers. Self-assembling nanostructures 11 and 13 were prepared, which employ both hydrogen bonding and dynamic, thermally reversible carbamate bonds. As precursors, calixarene ureas 1 and 2 were synthesized, which strongly aggregate/dimerize (K(D)>/=10(6) M…

Strengthening of carbon nanotube/epoxy resin composites was achieved by adding a small amount of copolymer (0.03 wt% of epoxy resin) as a dispersant. Tensile testing was used to measure mechanical properties. Young's modulus and fracture stress of the carbon nanotube composites with the copolymer were found to be abou…

Abstract Electrically conductive polyaniline (PANi)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) coaxial fibers were prepared through the chemical deposition of PANi onto preformed PMMA fibers via in situ polymerization. PMMA fibers were prepared as core materials via electrospinning. Spectral studies and scanning electron micros…

Hesperidin is a biologically effective flavonoid. Several studies have reported that dietary hesperidin was converted to conjugated metabolites, such as hesperetin-glucuronides and sulfoglucuronides, during absorption and metabolism. However, the chemical structures of the conjugated metabolites, especially the sites…

The adsorption properties of different ordered mesoporous materials, for the removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air, have been studied by means of a thermal programmed desorption technique. Toluene, isopentane, and water have been used as adsorbates, whereas a variety of mesostructured materials (MCM-41,…

We present a numerical study of sidebranching of a solidifying dendrite by means of a phase--field model. Special attention is paid to the regions far from the tip of the dendrite, where linear theories are no longer valid. Two regions have been distinguished outside the linear region: a first one in which sidebranchi…

We have performed terahertz time-domain spectroscopy of carrier-doped nanoporous crystal 12CaO7Al2O3 showing the Mott variable range hopping at room temperature. The real part of the dielectric constant clearly demonstrates the nature of localized carriers. The frequency dependence of both the real and imaginary parts…

We study Mode I crack propagation in amorphous material via a molecular dynamics simulation of a binary alloy with pairwise central-force interactions. We find that when the system is subjected to constant displacement after introduction of a seed crack, the crack does not propagate. This was found to be true both for…

The dominant mechanism for creating large irreversible strain in atomic crystals is the motion of dislocations, a class of line defects in the crystalline lattice. Here we show that the motion of dislocations can also be observed in strained colloidal crystals, allowing detailed investigation of their topology and pro…
