Hybrid materials based on polyethylene and MCM-41 microparticles functionalized with silanes: catalytic aspects of in situ polymerization, crystalline features and mechanical properties [PDF]
New nanocomposites based on polyethylene have been prepared by in situ polymerization of ethylene in presence of mesoporous MCM-41. The polymerization reactions were performed using a zirconocene catalyst either under homogenous conditions or supported

Polymeric nematics of associating rods: phase behavior, chiral propagation and elasticity [PDF]
Rod-shaped colloids with attractive tips can form linear aggregates that may subsequently undergo hierarchical self-assembly into nematic fluids. Inspired by recent modelling efforts on chromonic liquid crystals, composed of discotic building blocks, we formulate a second-virial theory for reversible supramolecular rods.

The NlpC_P60 superfamily of peptidases is recognised by its key role in bacterial cell wall homeostasis. Recently, studies have also described the involvement of NlpC_P60‐like enzymes in bacterial competitive mechanisms and pathogenesis across several lineages.

A novel method for tracking structural changes in gels using widely accessible microcomputed tomography is presented and validated for various hydro‐, alco‐, and aerogels. The core idea of the method is to track positions of micrometer‐sized tracer particles entrapped in the gel and relate them to the density of the gel network.

An improved method for the high isotacticity measurement of polybutene-1
High isotactic polybutene-1 (HiPB) plays important roles in presenting outstanding resistance to creep and crack at high temperature. Therefore, rapid and accurate measurement of the HiPB is extremely important for both synthesis and application of ...

Moisture-resistant coatings for optical components [PDF]
Plasma polymerization technique is used to apply thin, adherent, hydrophobic coatings from chlorotrifluoroethylene monomer. Apparently much of the chlorine contained in original monomer is lost during polymerization, and characteristic C-Cl absorption in

Role of heat generation and thermal diffusion during frontal photopolymerization [PDF]
Frontal photopolymerization (FPP) is a rapid and versatile solidification process that can be used to fabricate complex three-dimensional structures by selectively exposing a photosensitive monomer-rich bath to light.

Irreversible Step-Growth Polymerization with weighted dynamic network [PDF]
This paper considers random graph approach to simulate irreversible step-growth polymerization. We study generalization of approach developed by Kryven~I. by introducing different types of bonds each with its own weight representing corresponding reaction rate.

A continuum model for the growth of dendritic actin networks [PDF]
Polymerization of dendritic actin networks underlies important mechanical processes in cell biology such as the protrusion of lamellipodia, propulsion of growth cones in dendrites of neurons, intracellular transport of organelles and pathogens, among others.
