In this work, we report the synthesis and characteristics of cyclomatrix polyphosphazene membranes based on interfacial polymerization between 1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene top alumina or polyacrylonitrile supports. The potential alumina-supported thin film composite as organic solvent nanofiltration has been confirmed with a polystyrene-based molecular weight cu...

This paper focuses on nano-morphology-controlled small-molecule organic solar cells without solvent treatment for high power-conversion efficiencies (PCEs). The maximum high PCE reaches up to 7.22% with a bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) thickness of 320 nm. This high efficiency was obtained by eliminating solvent additives such as 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO) to find an alternative way to control the domai...

Escherichia coli mutants with improved organic solvent tolerance levels showed high levels of outer membrane protein TolC and inner membrane protein AcrA. The TolC level was regulated positively by MarA, Rob, or SoxS. A possible mar-rob-sox box sequence was found upstream of the tolC gene. These findings suggest that tolC is a member of the mar-sox regulon responsive to stress conditions. When ...
