چکیده

Cavitand is sufficiently predisposed to form nano-scale capsules in the presence of templating straight-chain hydrocarbons; quaternary complexes are formed when two copies of smaller guests are encapsulated, whilst larger guests form ternary entities.

Size-tunable drug-delivery capsules composed of a magnetic nanoshell

Nano-sized FePt capsules with two types of ultrathin shell were fabricated using a template method for use in a nano-scale drug delivery system. One capsule was composed of an inorganic-organic hybrid shell of a water-soluble polymer and FePt nanoparticles, and the other capsule was composed of a network of fused FePt nanoparticles. We demonstrated that FePt nanoparticles selectively accumulate...

Molecular dynamics studies of straight-chain alkanes diffusion in SiO2 ceramic versus Bosanquet formula

Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations were applied to calculate self-diffusion coefficients (Di ) and heats of adsorption for ethane, propane and n-butane. The simulations were done in temperature range of 300-525 K for various concentrations inside the pores of silicalite type zeolite. The calculated values of self-diffusion coefficients and heats of adsorption resulted from the current wo...

The experimental study of reverse micellar phase in AOT/ Heptane/ (Water or aqueous) as nano template

In this paper electrical conductivity measurements and optical investigations takes place in AOT/ heptane/ (water or aqueous) systems. The water in oil system prepared with adding water in 50% by weight of AOT/ heptane solution.  In other systems instead of water, aqueous solutions of 1) zinc acetate and water 2) Potassium Hydroxide and water were used. In each phase, the trend of the electrica...

A water-soluble hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene: synthesis, self-assembly and role as template for porous silica with aligned nanochannels.

A water-soluble hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene was prepared and shown to undergo ordered columnar self-assembly either in water solution or bulk and therefore served as template for the fabrication of porous silica with aligned nanochannels.

Key roles for chain flexibility in block copolymer membranes that contain pores or make tubes.

Block copolymer amphiphiles that self-assemble into membranes present robust and functionalizable alternatives to biological assemblies. Coarse-grained molecular dynamics shows that thick bilayers of A-B copolymers accommodate protein-like channels and also tend to regulate transport. This occurs as flexible, hydrophilic A chains insert into the pore and obstruct water entry. A-B-A triblocks th...
