Modulation of wettability, gradient and adhesion on self-assembled monolayer by counterion exchange and pH
( Academic Press Inc. , 2018 , Article)In this study, two quaternary ammonium salts derived from L-lipoic acid were applied for self-assembled monolayers formation on rough structured gold surface. The derivatives differ in functionality since one possesses ... -
Nanostructural synergism as Mn-N-C channels in manganese (IV) oxide and fluffy g-C3N4 layered composite with exceptional catalytic capabilities
( Academic Press Inc. , 2022 , Article)The avenues of catalysis and material science are always accepted and it is hoped that a state-of-the-art catalyst with exceptional intrinsic redox characteristics would be produced. This study focused on developing a ... -
Neutron diffraction studies of the Na-ion battery electrode materials NaCoCr2(PO4)3, NaNiCr2(PO4)3, and Na2Ni2Cr(PO4)3
( Academic Press Inc. , 2016 , Article)The new compounds NaCoCr2(PO4)3, NaNiCr2(PO4)3, and Na2Ni2Cr(PO4)3 were synthesized by sol-gel method and their crystal structures were determined by using neutron powder diffraction data. These compounds were characterized ... -
Nicotinamide-based supergelator self-assembling via asymmetric hydrogen bonding NH OC and H Br pattern for reusable, moldable and self-healable nontoxic fuel gels
( Academic Press Inc. , 2021 , Article)Hypothesis Development of highly efficient low-molecular weight gelators (LMWGs) for safe energy storage materials is of great demand. Energy storage materials as fuel gels are often achieved by construction of hybrid ... -
Photoimmobilization of zwitterionic polymers on surfaces to reduce cell adhesion
( Academic Press Inc. , 2017 , Article)Simple and robust methods for modifying hydrophobic polymer surfaces with zwitterionic polymers using UV irradiation were developed. Two random zwitterionic copolymers consisting of either carboxybetaine or sulfobetaine ... -
Sulfobetaine-based polydisulfides with tunable upper critical solution temperature (UCST) in water alcohols mixture, depolymerization kinetics and surface wettability
( Academic Press Inc. , 2021 , Article)Hypothesis: Synthesis of a new family of polymers having a polydisulfide structure can be conducted from sulfobetaine-based derivative of natural (R)-lipoic acid. A polydisulfide backbone of polymer can be depolymerized ...
