Uniform formation of Au coated polystyrene core-shell structure using metallization process

There are several methods for the fabrication of core-shell particles, including chemical reduction and self-assembly. In this study, the chemical reduction method was used to fabricate 100 nm, Au-coated polystyrene nanoparticles. The formation of the gold layer was based on the increase of gold coverage by the reaction with aniline and HAuCl₄. This method allowed for efficient control of the gold coverage and led to relatively stable products. The formation of Au clusters on the surface of the 100 nm polystyrene beads was characterized by scanning electron microscope and high resolution tunneling electron microscope. As a result, the Au-coated nanoparticles can be used in various applications such as surface plasmon resonators, drug delivery systems and electronic optical devices.     

Architecture of the Occasion

In an age of casual dressing and informal, fluid social meetings, Pia Ednie-Brown , Associate Professor the School of Architecture and Design at RMIT University, Melbourne, highlights the paradox of the highly formalist nature of many temporary structures. Often designed to be the event itself, pop-ups have become the ‘architecture of the occasion’. These are epitomised by the elaborate and eccentric one-off designs of cultural pavilions or follies. Could it be, Ednie-Brown asks, that this shift to a formalist architecture is giving us the unique opportunity to embrace the casual informality of today's social interactions, while still getting ‘glimmeringly sequined up for the event’?     

电解液对锂离子电池电化学性能的影响

在1mol/LLiPF6/(EC+DMC+EMC)(体积比1∶1∶1)电解液中加入不同体积比的亚硫酸丙烯酯(PS)制成不同的电解液,用循环伏安、电化学阻抗谱和恒流充放电测试研究了电解液对锂离子电池电化学性能的影响。结果表明:添加一定量PS,可改善电解液与石墨负极材料的相容性,提高锂离子电池的循环性能和低温性能。其中,电解液中PS含量为3%时,与不含PS的电解液相比,常温循环200周后电池容量保持率提高了8%;同一放电制度下低温-40℃的放电容量提高了4.9%。     

Poly(dimethylsiloxane‐b‐styrene) diblock copolymers prepared by reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer polymerization: Kinetic model

Well‐defined polydimethylsiloxane‐block‐polystyrene (PDMS‐b‐PS) diblock copolymers were prepared by reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization using a functional PDMS‐macro RAFT agent. The RAFT polymerization kinetics was simulated by a mathematical model for the RAFT polymerization in a batch reactor based on the method of moments. The model described molecular weight, monomer conversion, and polydispersity index as a function of polymerization time. Good agreements in the polymerization kinetics were achieved for fitting the kinetic profiles with the developed model. In addition, the model was used to predict the effects of initiator concentration, chain transfer agent concentration, and monomer concentration on the RAFT polymerization kinetics. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Modifications of carbon for polymer composites and nanocomposites

The various forms of carbon used in composite preparation include mainly carbon-black, carbon nanotubes and nanofibers, graphite and fullerenes. This review presents a detailed literature survey on the various modifications of the carbon nanostructures for nanocomposite preparation focusing upon the works published in the last decade. The modifications of each form of carbon are considered, with a compilation of structure-property relationships of carbon-based polymer nanocomposites. Modifications in both bulk and surface modifications have been reviewed, with comparison of their mechanical, thermal, electrical and barrier properties. A synopsis of the applications of these advanced materials is presented, pointing out gaps to motivate potential research in this field.
