Investigations of the Chemistry of 1-Alkynyltriazenes

Florian Gérald Abela

The chemistry of aromatic triazenes is well known, and has been explored for more than a century. These compounds have emerged as very useful intermediates, because of their unique reactivity. This functionality can notably be used to access many other fun ...

The Influence of Intrinsic Framework Flexibility on Adsorption in Nanoporous Materials

Berend Smit, Peter George Boyd, Matthew David Witman, Sudabeh Jawahery

For applications of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) such as gas storage and separation, flexibility is often seen as a parameter that can tune material performance. In this work we aim to determine the optimal flexibility for the shape selective separation ...

Designing interactions across interfaces in ionic liquids

Valentin Michael Manzanares

Ionic liquids (ILs) have attracted much attention because of their unusual charac- teristics (vapor pressure, condictivity, etc.). Furthermore, they can be designed to display desired properties specific to an application (task-specific ionic liquid, TSILs ...

Solid heat-expandable polylactide-poly(methyl methacrylate) foam precursors prepared by immersion in liquid carbon dioxide

John Christopher Plummer, Yonghoon Yoon

Solid heat-expandable foam precursors were prepared by impregnating melt-blended poly(d,l-lactide) (PDLLA)-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends with liquid carbon dioxide (CO2). The phase behavior of these blends was strongly dependent on the processing ...
