Advances in organic micro/nanocrystals with tunable physicochemical properties

Selecting internally consistent physicochemical properties of organic compounds.

Methods are presented for selecting values of chemical properties of vapor pressure, water solubility, Henry's law constant, and octanol-water and octanol-air partition coefficients, which are subject to thermodynamic constraints, while taking advantage of all measurements. The aim of the mathematical procedures is to find the one set of internally consistent partitioning parameters that is min...

The Effects of Organic Solvents on the Physicochemical Properties of Human Serum Albumin Nanoparticles

Background: Recently, applications of albumin nanoparticles as drug delivery carriers have increased. Most toxicology studies have shown that surface chemistry and size of nanoparticles play an important role in biocompatibility and toxicity. Objective: The effect of desolvating agents with different chemical properties on the size of synthesized HSA NPs was investigated. Materials and Method...

Organic nanocrystals with tunable morphologies and optical properties prepared through a sonication technique.

Nanocrystals with tunable morphologies and optical properties were successfully fabricated from an organic functional low-molecular-weight compound, 2,4,5-triphenylimidazole (lophine), through a sonication technique.

Porous graphene frameworks pillared by organic linkers with tunable surface area and gas storage properties.

We report the design and synthesis of two porous graphene frameworks (PGFs) prepared via covalent functionalization of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) with iodobenzene followed by a C-C coupling reaction. In contrast to RGO, these 3D frameworks show high surface area (BET, 825 m(2) g(-1)) and pore volumes due to the effect of pillaring. Interestingly, both the frameworks show high CO2 uptake (112 ...
