Here we report the growth of novel transition metal-organic thin-film materials consisting of manganese or cobalt as the metal component and terephthalate as the rigid organic backbone. The hybrid thin films are deposited by the currently strongly emerging atomic/molecular layer deposition (ALD/MLD) technique using the combination of a metal β-diketonate, i.e. Mn(thd)3, Co(acac)3 or Co(thd)2, a...

The adsorption and ordering of the molecule terephthalic acid (TPA), 1,4-benzene-dicarboxylic acid C6H4(COOH)2, on the reconstructed Au(111) surface has been studied in situ in ultrahigh vacuum by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) at room temperature. Two-dimensional (2D) self-assembled supramolecular domains evolve, wherein the well-known one-dimensional (1D) carboxyl H-bond pairing scheme i...

New carbohydrate-based polyesters were prepared from isoidide-2,5-dimethanol (extended isoidide, XII) through melt polymerization with dimethyl esters of terephthalic acid (TA) and furan-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (FDCA), yielding semi-crystalline prepolymers. Subsequent solid-state post-condensation (SSPC) gave high molecular weight (Mn =30 kg mol(-1) for FDCA) materials, the first examples of high...

Abstract In Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) processing the raw materials are purified terephthalic acid (PTA), moderately (MTA), monoehalene glycol (MEG). The of PTA is very difficult and costly. For reducing percent we using different percentages MTA blend in PET processing. affected properties polyester melt spinning process. such as elongation, tenacity, molecular chain length, b-color IV, ...

Converting biomass into high value-added compounds has attracted great attention for solving fossil fuel consumption and global warming. 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) been considered as a versatile biomass-derived building block that can be used to synthesize variety of sustainable fuels chemicals. Among these derivatives, 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is desirable alternative petroleum-der...
