Plant wax and carbon isotope response to heat and drought in the conifer Juniperus monosperma

Plant waxes, including n-alkanes, are commonly used for a wide range of paleo-applications. Several common traits of n-alkanes that are used as paleo-proxies include chain length distribution and average chain length (ACL), as well as plant wax carbon and ...

Accurate molecular polarizabilities with coupled cluster theory and machine learning

Michele Ceriotti, David Mark Wilkins, Andrea Grisafi, Yang Yang

The molecular dipole polarizability describes the tendency of a molecule to change its dipole moment in response to an applied electric field. This quantity governs key intra- and intermolecular interactions, such as induction and dispersion; plays a vital ...

Predicting Product Distribution of Propene Dimerization in Nanoporous Materials

Berend Smit

In this work, a theoretical framework is developed to explain and predict changes in the product distribution of the propene dimerization reaction, which yields a mixture of C-6 olefin isomers, resulting from the use of different porous materials as cataly ...

Method for the electrical passivation of electrode arrays and/or conductive paths in general, and a method for producing stretchable electrode arrays and/or stretchable conductive paths in general

Stéphanie Lacour, Ivan Rusev Minev

A method produces a conductive paste comprising 15-20% by weight of PDMS and 80-85% by weight of metallic micro-nano particles, wherein the conductive paste is obtained by repeated addition of singular doses of PDMS to a heptane diluted PDMS low viscosity ...

Thermodynamic modeling of gas-liquid-water partitioning and fluid properties for Macondo reservoir fluid at deep-water conditions

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros

With the expansion of offshore petroleum exploration and extraction activities, validated models are needed to simulate the behaviors of petroleum compounds released in deep (>100 m) waters. We developed a thermodynamic model of the gas-liquid-water partit ...

Oriented MFI membranes by gel-less secondary growth of sub-100 nm MFI-nanosheet seed layers

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Han Zhang

A zeolite membrane fabrication process combining 2D-zeolite nanosheet seeding and gel-free secondary growth is described. This process produces selective molecular sieve films that are as thin as 100 nm and exhibit record high permeances for xylene- and bu ...

Adsorption of low-molecular-weight molecules on the surface of a sodium smectite clay: an ab initio study

John Christopher Plummer, Wanda Andreoni, Pascal Clausen, Alessandro Curioni

We present a study of the adsorption of single molecules of volatiles, such as water, ethanol, ethyl acetate, pyridine, toluene, and n-octane, on the dry surface of a smectite clay using a series of calculations based on density functional theory. Our clay ...

A comparative study of VOCs in Singapore and European office buildings

Claude-Alain Roulet

This study compares the characteristics of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and the associated factors affecting them within European (EU) and Singapore buildings. Generally, concentrations of target VOCs determined in the two types of buildings were with ...

The Diels-Alder Chemoselectivity of 3,4,6,7-Tetramethylidenebicyclo[3.2.1]Octane-2-Exo,8-Syn-Diyl Derivatives

Pierre Vogel

Strong dienophiles prefer to add onto the diene moiety attached at C(2),C(3) of 2,3,6,7-tetramethylidenebicyclo[3,2,1]octane ((+/-)-1; see Scheme 1), whereas in the case of 3,4,6,7-tetramethylidenebicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-exo,8-syn-diyl derivatives. the dien ...

Radiolyse des n-alcanes en phase liquide

Contributions of radical and non-radical processes have been determined in the formation of radiolysis products of n-heptane, n-octane, n-nonane and n-decane in a large range of temperature. Calculations are based on the combination and the dismutation of ...
