Polyethylene Oxide/Sodium Sulfonamide Polymethacrylate Blends as Highly Conducting Single-Ion Solid Polymer Electrolytes
(American Chemical Society, 2023-04)
In this work, blends of polyethylene oxide (PEO) and poly(sodium 1-[3-(methacryloyloxy)propylsulfonyl]-1-(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide) (PNaMTFSI) in different compositions were investigated for their application as ...
Extracting Features of Active Transition Metal Electrodes for NO Electroreduction with Catalytic Matrices
(American Chemical Society, 2023-04)
Electrocatalytic reduction of oxidized nitrogen compounds (NOx) promises to
help rebalance the nitrogen cycle. It is widely accepted that nitrate reduction to NH4+/NH3
involves NO as an intermediate, and NO hydrogenation ...
Constructing semilocal approximations for noncollinear spin density functional theory featuring exchange-correlation torques
(American Physical Society, 2023-04)
We present a semilocal exchange-correlation energy functional for noncollinear spin density functional theory based on short-range expansions of the spin-resolved exchange hole and the two-body density matrix. Our functional ...
Upgrading Polyurethanes into Functional Ureas through the Asymmetric Chemical Deconstruction of Carbamates
(American Chemical Society, 2023-01)
The importance of systematic and efficient recycling of all forms of plastic is no longer a matter for debate. Constituting the sixth most produced polymer family worldwide, polyurethanes, which are used in a broad variety ...
Toward Long-Term-Dispersible, Metal-Free Single-Chain Nanoparticles
(MDPI, 2023-04-18)
We report herein on a new platform for synthesizing stable, inert, and dispersible metal-free single-chain nanoparticles (SCNPs) via intramolecular metal-traceless azide–alkyne click chemistry. It is well known that SCNPs ...
Influence of FFF Process Conditions on the Thermal, Mechanical, and Rheological Properties of Poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxy Hexanoate)
(MDPI, 2023-04-07)
Polyhydroxyalkanoates are natural polyesters synthesized by microorganisms and bacteria. Due to their properties, they have been proposed as substitutes for petroleum derivatives. This work studies how the printing conditions ...
Effect of the Simultaneous Addition of Polycaprolactone and Carbon Nanotubes on the Mechanical, Electrical, and Adhesive Properties of Epoxy Resins Cured with Ionic Liquids
(MDPI, 2023-03-23)
Electrically-conductive epoxy nanocomposites (NCs) with improved mechanical and adhesive properties were achieved through the combined addition of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Three different ...
Effect of applied stresses on magnetic properties of Co and Fe-rich glass-coated microwires
(AIP, 2023-03)
In this article we evaluate the possibility of using glass coated magnetic microwires as an alternative to optical fiber devices in structural health monitoring in the railway industry. The effect of applied stress on ...
Determination of Magnetic Structures in Magnetic Microwires with Longitudinally Distributed Magnetic Anisotropy
(MDPI, 2023-03-13)
We studied the magnetic properties of a glass-covered amorphous microwire that was stress-annealed at temperatures distributed along the microwire length. The Sixtus-Tonks, Kerr effect microscopy and magnetic impedance ...
Carbon-Doped Co2MnSi Heusler Alloy Microwires with Improved Thermal Characteristics of Magnetization for Multifunctional Applications
(MDPI, 2023-07-29)
In the current work, we illustrate the effect of adding a small amount of carbon to very common Co2MnSi Heusler alloy-based glass-coated microwires. A significant change in the magnetic and structure structural properties ...
