Individual Enforcement Rights in International Sovereign Bonds [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2008
Sovereign bond contracts are notoriously hard to enforce. The few rights that bondholders have can be vested either collectively or individually. It seems that investors traditionally had a preference for the latter, which hindered financial market reform projects, such as the universal adoption of collective action clauses or trust structures.

Understanding the Mechanism of Self-Bonding of Bamboo Binderless Boards: Investigating the Structural Changes of Lignin Macromolecule during the Molding Pressing Process

BioResources, 2016
Binderless boards were produced from bamboo particles through a molding pressing process. The boards were investigated for the chemical and structural changes of lignin and their mechanical strengths to evaluate the mechanism of self-bonding.

Removing Homocoupling Defects in Alkoxy/Alkyl‐PBTTT Enhances Polymer:Fullerene Co‐Crystal Formation and Stability

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
PBTTT‐OR‐R, a C14‐alkoxy/alkyl‐PBTTT polymer derivative, is of substantial interest for optoelectronics due to its specific fullerene intercalation behavior and enhanced charge‐transfer absorption. Comparing this polymer with (S) and without (O) homocoupling defects reveals that PBTTT‐OR‐R(O) forms stable co‐crystals with PC61BM, while PBTTT‐OR‐R(S ...

Anti-Sharing [PDF]

Anti-Sharing may solve the sharing problem of teams: the team members promise a fixed payment to the Anti-Sharer. He collects the actual output and pays out its value to them. We prove that the internal Anti-Sharer is unproductive in equilibrium. -- Anti-

The Structure, Dynamics and Electronic Structure of Liquid Ag-Se Alloys Investigated by Ab Initio Simulation

, 1996
Ab initio molecular-dynamics simulations have been used to investigate the structure, dynamics and electronic properties of the liquid alloy Ag(1-x)Se(x) at 1350 K and at the three compositions x=0.33, 0.42 and 0.65. The calculations are based on density-

Exploring Dipolar Dynamics and Ionic Transport in Metal‐Organic Frameworks: Experimental and Theoretical Insights

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, the interplay of dipolar dynamics and ionic charge transport in MOF compounds is investigated. Synthesizing the novel structure CFA‐25 with integrated freely rotating dipolar groups, local and macroscopic effects, including interactions with Cs cations are explored.

Heat-Induced Preparation of Myofibrillar Protein Gels Reinforced Through Ferulic Acid, α-Cyclodextrin and Fe(III)

Foods
Phenolic acids have a positive effect on the processing quality of myofibrillar protein (MP) gels. However, in this study, the addition of ferulic acid (FA) did not have a positive effect on MP gels.
