Rational Fabrication of Anti-Freezing, Non-Drying Tough Organohydrogels by One-Pot Solvent Displacement.

Angewandte Chemie, 2018
Tough hydrogels, polymeric network structures with excellent mechanical properties (such as high stretchability and toughness), are emerging soft materials.

Anti-freezing, Conductive Self-healing Organohydrogels with Stable Strain-Sensitivity at Subzero Temperatures.

Angewandte Chemie, 2017
Conductive hydrogels are a class of stretchable conductive materials that are important for various applications. However, water-based conductive hydrogels inevitably lose elasticity and conductivity at subzero temperatures, which severely limits their ...

Molecular dynamics study of melting and freezing of small Lennard-Jones clusters

, 1987
The properties of small clusters of Lennard-Jones atoms were studied by using molecular dynamics simulations. Clusters containing from 13 to 147 atoms were found to undergo a transition, analogous to a melting transition for bulk materials, from a low ...

Motivated closing of the mind: "seizing" and "freezing".

Psychology Review, 1996
A theoretical framework is outlined in which the key construct is the need for (nonspecific) cognitive closure. The need for closure is a desire for definite knowledge on some issue. It represents a dimension of stable individual differences as well as a

Freeze Fracture and Freeze Etching

2013
Freeze fracture depends on the property of frozen tissues or cells, when cracked open, to split along the hydrophobic interior of membranes, thus revealing broad panoramas of membrane interior. These large panoramas reveal the three-dimensional contours of membranes making the methods well suited to studying changes in membrane architecture.

Freezing and freeze-drying

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1975
Most biological substances are unstable during storage owing to their high water content. This is why numerous attempts have been made over the last 100 years to prevent, by low temperature freezing, metabolic and biochemical degradations. The transformation of water into ice brings to an end all chemical reactions; however, it might also induce ...

To Freeze, or Not to...

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1983
Correct identification of a parotid mass is often a substantial challenge to the skills and acumen of the clinician. Sometimes, even recognition of the mass is difficult when it is deeply located. One must decide if the mass arises from the parotid parenchyma or periparotid lymph nodes.

Control of ice nucleation: freezing and antifreeze strategies.

Chemical Society Reviews, 2018
Water freezing remains a perennial topic of great relevance to many important aspects of our lives; from the climate to human society and from economics to medicine, frozen water profoundly influences our living environment and life activities.

Freezing and Freeze-Drying

2016
Freezing of biological materials is commonly carried out to delay biochemical and chemical changes resulting in loss of activity. However, the physicochemical background of freezing is not well understood. Freeze-drying is generally aimed at preserving biological materials and bioactive components for long periods of time without the need for frozen ...

Freezing and freeze-drying of microorganisms

Cryobiology, 1964
Some papers reporting the effects of intense cold on microorganisms had already appeared in the 19th century and since then there have been a great many investigations of the freezing of microorganisms.3* 53 ‘I, 12 These experiments demonstrate that a wide variety of microorganisms can survive cooling to and storage at very low temperatures.
