Sulfonic organosilica nanotubes with different acidity densities could be synthesized through the co-condensation of ethenylor phenylene-bridged organosilane and 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane followed by sulfhydryl (–SH) oxidation. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis and nitrogen adsorption-desorption experiment clearly exhibit the hollow nanotube structures with the diameters of...

Hydrogen molecules exist in the form of two distinct isomers that can be interconverted by physical catalysis. These ortho and para forms have different thermodynamical properties. Over last century, catalysts developed to convert hydrogen from one another, laboratories industries, were magnetic interpretations relied on dipolar interactions. The variety concentration a sample conversion rates ...

The class of compounds (RCp)2MX2, where M is a group IV metal, Cp is cyclopentadienyl, R is an alkyl, and X is a halide, has been of continuing interest as precursors for olefin coordination polymerization catalysts. In this communication, we demonstrate that the technique of optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) reveals subtle differences in the composition of the frontier molecular orb...

Multisegment nanowires represent a unique platform for engineering multifunctional nanoparticles for a wide range of applications. For example, the optical and magnetic properties of nanowires can be tailored by modifying the size, shape, and composition of each segment. Similarly, surface modification can be used to tailor chemical and biological properties. In this article, we report on recen...

In this Letter, we report, for the first time, using polymer single crystal as magnetically recoverable support for nanoparticle catalysts. This catalyst system is composed of polymer single crystal, platinum nanoparticles, and iron oxide nanoparticles, which act as support, catalysts, and magnetic responsive materials, respectively. Platinum nanoparticles and iron oxide nanoparticles were bond...

the perovskite-structured la2cuo4 nanoparticles have been synthesized via an ultrasonic-assisted co-precipitation route using octanoic acid as organic surfactant, and the phase composition, morphology, lattice parameters and size of nanoparticles are characterized through fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscop...

eethylene polymerization catalysts became available in an enormous variety. the challenge in this research is to find catalysts that are able to connect ethylene molecules in such a way that not only linear chains are produced but variations like branched materials that possess very interesting mechanical properties like linear low density polyethylene (lldpe). in this contribution, three diffe...

A novel, rapid and simple method is described for the synthesis of magnetic MIL-100(Fe) with novel Fe3O4 morphology, which significantly improved the sustainability of conventional fabrication processes in several aspects. The magnetic MOFs were prepared (i) in one pot (instead of multiple steps), (ii) at room temperature (instead of temperatures over 150 °C), (iii) within a few hours with exce...
