Reduction of the Thermal Conductivity of Polyurethanes by Fluorination: Impact of Crystallinity, Atomic Density, and Sound Velocity

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This study provides a rich database of structure–property relationships that will help guide future work in designing polymers with low intrinsic thermal conductivity. Fluorinated polymers are widely utilized in industry for their outstanding hydrophobicity, chemical resistance, and heat resistance. Our study provides insights that fluorinated polymers

High‐Performance Recyclable Polyester Elastomers Through Transient Strain‐Stiffening

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Transient strain‐crystallization simultaneously strengthens and toughens block polyester elastomers while conserving recyclability. Using controlled polymerization catalysis and commercial monomers, block polyester elastomers outperform current commercial elastomers, entering a new region of tensile mechanical property space.

PPh3/Isocyanide and N2/Isocyanide Exchange: Pathways to Isolable Alkali Metal Keteniminyl Anions

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The synthesis of isolable keteniminyl anions through substitution of the phosphine ligand in metalated ylides or the N₂ ligand in diazomethanides with isocyanides is reported. The anions feature a bent geometry, with the angle decreasing with increasing donor ability of the nitrogen substituent, and exhibit broad applicability in the formation of ...

Molecules with a peptide link in protostellar shocks: a comprehensive study of L1157 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Interstellar molecules with a peptide link -NH-C(=O)-, like formamide (NH$_2$CHO), acetamide (NH$_2$COCH$_3$) and isocyanic acid (HNCO) are particularly interesting for their potential role in pre-biotic chemistry. We have studied their emission in the protostellar shock regions L1157-B1 and L1157-B2, with the IRAM 30m telescope, as part of the ASAI ...

Pairing N‐Vacancy and Adjacent Ni‐Sites in the Local Microenvironment to Regulate the Urea Oxidation Reaction Pathway With Enhanced Kinetics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In nitrogen vacancies‐rich nickel nitride (Ni3N‐VN), a local microenvironment of nitrogen vacancies and adjacent Ni sites is formed. The electron‐rich Ni‐sites can be converted to NiOOH at a lower potential, and urea adsorption on the electron‐deficient nitrogen vacancy region is conducive to its partial dissociation, conceiving to efficient urea ...

Epigenetic Markers Are Associated With Differences in Isocyanate Biomarker Levels in Exposed Spray-Painters

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Isocyanates are respiratory and skin sensitizers that are one of the main causes of occupational asthma globally. Genetic and epigenetic markers are associated with isocyanate-induced asthma and, before asthma develops, we have shown that genetic ...
