The effects of the size (pseudo-generation number) and nature of end groups on physical and rheological properties were investigated for a series of hyperbranched polyesters based on an ethoxylated pentaerythritol core and 2,2-bis-(hydroxymethyl) propionic ...
The formation and quenching of the triplet state of xanthone are studied by femtosecond techniques. As revealed by femtosecond fluorescence spectroscopy, the primarily excited 1ππ* state decays within 1.5 ps. In a transient absorption experiment, this time ...
Most hardware predictors are table based (e.g. two-level branch predictors) and have exponential size growth in the number of input bits or features (e.g. previous branch outcomes). This growth severely limits the amount of predictive information that such ...
With higher nutrient and oxygen supply and close contact to blood, the portal vein is a possible alternative to the peritoneal cavity for transplantation of encapsulated cells. Data regarding intraportal biocompatibility of microcapsules are lacking. Micro ...
Highly time-resolved measurements of PM2.5, its major constituents, particle size distributions (9 nm to 20 μ m), CO, NO/NO2, and O3, and meteorological parameters were made from February through November 2002, at the Baltimore Supersite at Ponca St. using ...
A series of new mixed-ligand lanthanide complexes [Ln(hfa)3(4-cpyNO)]2 (Ln = SmIII-HoIII and TmIII; hfa- = hexafluoroacetylacetonate; 4-cpyNO = 4-cyanopyridine N-oxide) have been synthesised by treating the corresponding lanthanide hexafluoroacetylacetonat ...
A modified synthetic boundary expt. of anal. ultracentrifugation has been employed to examine, online, polyelectrolyte complex formation at flat interfaces yielding highly swollen membranes/networks. Systematic expts. with sodium alginate as a polyanion an ...
The interactions and structural formation of polyelectrolytes in solution and environmental stimuli-responsive water-soluble polymers are subjects of intense academic research, development, and application. An increasing number of novel materials are being ...
We calculate the concentration-concentration partial structure factor S-CC(k) and the charge-charge structure factor S-zz(k) of liquid SiO2, amorphous SiSe2 and liquid GeSe2 using first-principles molecular dynamics. These systems are characterized by the ...
From electrochemical measurements at the interface of two immiscible electrolytes, the current at controlled potential is usually a linear function of the ion concentration in the aqueous phase. Surprisingly, a linear relationship between the current and t ...
