Flexibility and Dynamicity Enhances and Controls Supramolecular Self‐Assembly of Zinc(II) Metallogels

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Zinc(II) coordination complexes with tunable aryloxy‐imine ligands exhibit controllable supramolecular self‐assembly into hierarchical fibrous structures. Coordination‐driven stacking, not π–π interactions, enables gelation, dynamic assembly/disassembly, and enhanced nanomechanical properties.

Coarsening Dynamics of Granular Heaplets in Tapped Granular Layers

, 2002
A semi-continuum model is introduced to study the dynamics of the formation of granular heaplets in tapped granular layers. By taking into account the energy dissipation of collisions and screening effects due to avalanches, this model is able to ...

Tuning the Dielectric Properties of Individual Clay Nanosheets by Interlayer Composition: Toward Nano‐Electret Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The dielectric properties of clays are studied on the level of individual monolayers and functional double stacks. The material breakdown characteristics and charge storage performance are analyzed. For illustration, a defined charge pattern representing a cuneiform character is produced, written into a microscopic clay tile, referencing the origins of

Composites of Shellac and Silver Nanowires as Flexible, Biobased, and Corrosion‐Resistant Transparent Conductive Electrodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Shellac, a centuries‐old natural resin, is reimagined as a green material for flexible electronics. When combined with silver nanowires, shellac films deliver transparency, conductivity, and stability against humidity. These results position shellac as a sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers for transparent conductors in next‐generation ...

Evaluating the latex yield of rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis muel arg.) based on the ages of the plant and the time of tapping [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
The yield of latex is strongly influenced by the tapping time and age of the plant. This study was conducted to evaluate the yield of latex obtained from different times of tapping and the age of the plants. The observation was conducted on the 15 and 11-

Vulnerability of MRD-Code-based Universal Secure Network Coding against Stronger Eavesdroppers

, 2010
Silva et al. proposed a universal secure network coding scheme based on MRD codes, which can be applied to any underlying network code. This paper considers a stronger eavesdropping model where the eavesdroppers possess the ability to re-select the ...

To TAP or not to TAP: alternative peptides for immunotherapy of cancer

Current Opinion in Immunology, 2020
Intracellular processing of antigens is crucial for the generation of T cell immunity towards cancers, since cleaved protein products are the molecular targets of these adaptive lymphocytes. The majority of antigenic peptides requires the TAP transporter to gain access to the peptide loading complex in the ER lumen where they bind MHC class I (MHC-I ...
