Nano- and submicron-structured aluminium was produced by equal channel angular extrusion with a total strain of ̴17. Large residual stress and strain energy were built up in the extruded metal and subsequent heat treatments ...

In this paper, the problem of finding the optimal separation sequence for a three-component mixture in a cascade of two binary separation stages is considered. The minimal energy that is needed for a separation in a ...

The separation by reverse polarity capillary zone electrophoresis of the therapeutically developed sodium salt of Pentosan Polysulfate was optimised through the analysis of response surface methodologies, modeled using ...

Gold nanoparticles have strong and tunable absorption peaks in their optical extinction spectra, a phenomenon that has recently been exploited to generate localized heating in the vicinity of these particles. However ...

Ordered mesoporous tungsten sulfide (WS2) with high surface area and narrow pore size distribution was synthesized by a vacuum assisted impregnation route. The as-prepared mesoporous WS2 exhibited a high lithium storage ...

The cubic hyperpolarizabilities of the zero-generation dendrimers 1¿3 and related first generation dendrimers have been assessed over the spectral range 520¿1600 nm using the Z-scan technique and ~150 fs pulses. The complexes ...

Malaria aminopeptidases are important in the generation and regulation of free amino acids that are used in protein anabolism and for maintaining osmotic stability within the infected erythrocyte. The intraerythrocytic ...

y flexible, paper-like, free-standing polypyrrole and polypyrrole¿LiFePO4 composite films were prepared using the electropolymerization method. The films are soft, lightweight, mechanically robust and highly electrically ...
