Refolding of staphylococcal nuclease has been studied recently by hydrogen-deuterium exchange and NMR spectroscopy. These studies infer that beta-hairpin formed by strand 2 and strand 3 connected by reverse turn forms early during the refolding of nuclease. Typically, hydrogen-deuterium exchange NMR techniques are usually carried out on a time scale of milliseconds whereas beta-hairpins are known to fold on a much shorter time scale. It follows that in the experiments, the hydrogen-deuterium exchange protection patterns could be arising from a significant population of fully formed hairpins. In order to demonstrate it is the fully formed hairpins which gives rise to the hydrogen-deuterium exchange protection patterns, we have considered molecular dynamics simulation of the peptide (21)DTVKLMYKGQPMTFR(35) from staphylococcal nuclease corresponding to the beta-hairpin region, using GROMOS96 force field under NVT conditions. Starting from unfolded conformational states, the peptide folds into hairpin conformations with native-like and non-native hydrogen bonding patterns. Subsequent to folding, equilibrium conditions prevail. The computed protection factors and atom depth values, at equilibrium, of the various amide protons agree qualitatively with experimental observations. A collection of molecules following the trajectories observed in the simulations can account for experimental observations. These simulations provide a molecular picture of the formed hairpins and their conformational features during the refolding experiments on nuclease, monitored by hydrogen-deuterium exchange. 相似文献

A new low-noise CMOS oscillator architecture is presented. The oscillator comprises of a loop formed by a switched capacitor integrator which sets the control voltage to a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO). The VCO output provides a clock for the integrator, thus closing the feedback loop. Phase noise reduction is obtained by suppressing the VCO noise by the feedback loop. Design considerations and simulation results supporting the architecture are presented. 相似文献

The utilization of renewable resources for the development of organic coatings is a viable means of creating alternatives to petroleum-based chemicals which are not eco-friendly. This paper reports the synthesis of polyesteramide–urethane–silica–zinc oxide hybrid coatings from Thevetia peruviana seed oil (TPSO). The periphery of ZnO nano-particles is modified with 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane to prepare silica grafted ZnO composite particles. The TPSO based polyesteramide was reacted with 4,4′-diisocyanatodicyclohexylmethane in presence of siloxane modified ZnO to obtain –NCO terminated polyesteramide–urethane–silica ZnO prepolymer. These hybrid pre-polymers were casted on tin foil and cured under atmospheric moisture to obtain eco-friendly, moisture cured polyesteramide–urethanes–silica–zinc oxide hybrid coating films. The synthesized polyester and polyurethane formation was confirmed by using FT-IR and NMR spectroscopic techniques. The resultant hybrid coating films were characterized by using FT-IR, TGA, DSC, SEM, corrosion resistance and microbial resistance. Results confirm that with increase of siloxane modified ZnO content in the polyurethane matrix thermal stability, glass transition temperature and corrosion resistance improved. The antibacterial activity shows that the hybrid films exhibit excellent resistance towards Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The salt spray test on coated panel samples show good corrosion resistance properties. 相似文献

Due to the numerous applications of nanofluids, investigating and understanding of thermophysical properties of nanofluids
has currently become one of the core issues. Although numerous theoretical and numerical models have been developed by previous
researchers to understand the mechanism of enhanced heat transfer in nanofluids; to the best of our knowledge these models
were limited to the study of either thermal conductivity or convective heat transfer of nanofluids. We have developed a numerical
model which can estimate the enhancement in both the thermal conductivity and convective heat transfer in nanofluids. It also
aids in understanding the mechanism of heat transfer enhancement. The study reveals that the nanoparticle dispersion in fluid
medium and nanoparticle heat transport phenomenon are equally important in enhancement of thermal conductivity. However, the
enhancement in convective heat transfer was caused mainly due to the nanoparticle heat transport mechanism. Ability of this
model to be able to understand the mechanism of convective heat transfer enhancement distinguishes the model from rest of
the available numerical models. 相似文献

The composition of the pyrolysis products of plastics depends on disintegration of the macromolecule into variety of hydrocarbon fractions. In this work, a detailed gas chromatographic study of pyrolysis products of polypropylene (PP) between 200 and 600°C was carried out. The pyrograms have been analyzed in terms of amount of different products evolved at various pyrolysis temperatures. At low pyrolysis temperatures (200–300°C), the yield of lighter hydrocarbons (C5‐C10) is low; it gradually increases until maximum decomposition temperature (446°C) and decreases thereafter. The following reaction types were considered to explain the decomposition mechanism of PP: (a) main chain cleavage to form chain‐ terminus radicals; (b) intramolecular hydrogen transfer to generate internal radicals; (c) intermolecular hydrogen transfer to form both volatile products and radicals; and (d) β‐scission to form both volatiles and terminally unsaturated polymer chains. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Nanodielectrics are promising materials that can efficiently store a large amount of electrical energy that are desirable for many electronic and power devices. Control of polymer–particle interface in nanodielectrics is very critical in not only obtaining the improved quality of dispersion but also in altering the dielectric properties. Various surface modifying agents with linear (alkyl), aromatic (phenyl) and extended aromatic (naphthyl) chemical nature were employed at the epoxy–nano\(\hbox {TiO}_{2}\) interface. All the surface-modifying agents were successful in passivating the nanoparticles surface and in obtaining the improved quality of polymer–particle dispersion and improved glass transition temperature comparatively. However, all the surface modifiers were not successful in obtaining the improved dielectric properties of the nanodielectrics, especially dielectric breakdown resistance. Only the extended aromatic group at the polymer–particle interface, which is more electron withdrawing in electronic nature than phenyl and alkyl structures, was successful in improving the dielectric breakdown resistance. Thus, the choice of surface-modifying agent based on its chemical and electronic nature is very important in optimizing the dielectric properties of nanodielectrics. Naphthyl phosphate-modified nano\(\hbox {TiO}_{2}\)–epoxy composite films of \(\sim \)90–100 \(\upmu \)m thick at 5 vol% particle concentration yielded higher dielectric breakdown resistance than pure epoxy polymer and thereby resulted in about 90% higher electrical energy storage density than the pure epoxy film. 相似文献

The current work describes the synthesis of a new bio-waste derived cellulosic-carbon supported-palladium nanoparticles enriched magnetic nanocatalyst (Pd/Fe3O4@C) using a simple multi-step process under aerobic conditions. Under mild reaction conditions, the Pd/Fe3O4@C magnetic nanocatalyst demonstrated excellent catalytic activity in the Hiyama cross-coupling reaction for a variety of substrates. Also, the Pd/Fe3O4@C magnetic nanocatalyst exhibited excellent catalytic activity up to five recycles without significant catalytic activity loss in the Hiyama cross-coupling reaction. Also, we explored the use of Pd/Fe3O4@C magnetic nanocatalyst as an electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction. Interestingly, the Pd/Fe3O4@C magnetic nanocatalyst exhibited better electrochemical activity compared to bare carbon and magnetite (Fe3O4 nanoparticles) with an overpotential of 293 mV at a current density of 10 mA·cm–2. 相似文献

The present article reports eco‐friendly multi‐functional polyurethane–ZnO hybrid nanocomposite coatings obtained from Thevetia peruviana seed oil (TPSO). Initially, the polyols were prepared by treating TPSO with glycerol and the formation was supported by Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) and 1H‐NMR studies. In the next stage, siloxane functionalized ZnO nanoparticles were added to the polyol mixture in different weight percentages (0, 1 and 2 %) and then treated with excess 4,4′‐diisocyanatodicyclohexylmethane (H12MDI) in order to synthesize isocyanate terminated polyurethane nanocomposites. The polyurethane hybrids were then casted as thin films and cured under atmospheric moisture. After complete curing they were characterized by using FT‐IR, 1H‐NMR, 13C‐NMR, X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis techniques. The hybrid nanocomposites showed superior thermo‐mechanical and anti‐corrosive properties compared to pristine polyurethane. Also, due to the presence of nano ZnO in the polyurethane matrix, the composite coatings are showing excellent resistance towards various bacterial and fungal stains. 相似文献

Polymer nanocomposites have proved to be promising energy storage devices for modern power electronic systems. In this work we have studied the dielectric properties and dielectric energy storage densities of 0–3 type BCZT/PVDF-HFP polymer nanocomposites with different filler volume concentrations. BCZT nanopowder was synthesized by solgel method through citrate precursor method. The structural and morphological features of the BCZT nanopowder were examined by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. For better polymer ceramic interface coupling, BCZT was surface functionalized with extended aromatic ligand, naphthyl phosphate (NPh). The surface functionalization was validated and quantified by thermogravimetric analysis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The dielectric constant of surface passivated BCZT nanoparticles was estimated to be ~?155 using slurry technique, while the dielectric permittivity of pristine BCZT nanopowder could not be assessed due to high innate surface conductivity. BCZT/PVDF-HFP polymer nanocomposite thin films were fabricated using solution casting technique. The dispersion quality of the ceramic fillers in the polymer matrix was examined by scanning electron microscopy. Due to better polymer ceramic interface, At 5 vol% filler concentration, NPh modified nanoBCZT/PVDF-HFP films showed enhanced dielectric breakdown strength and energy storage density than untreated nanoBCZT/PVDF-HFP and even pure polymer films. Maximum energy storage density of 8.5 J cm?3 was obtained at an optimum filler concentration of 10 vol% for surface functionalized BCZT/PVDF-HFP composite films of 10 μm thickness. 相似文献

The present work describes development of moisture cured polyurethane–urea coatings based on 1,2,3-triazole rich polyether polyols. In this paper, two polyether polyols were synthesized by using 1,3-dipolar azide–alkyne cycloaddition reaction and they were named as PL-1 and PL-2 where PL-1 is 9 terminal hydroxyl groups and PL-2 is 6 terminal hydroxyl groups. These polyols were reacted with 4, 4′-diisocyanatodicyclohexylmethane (H12MDI) at OH:NCO ratio of 1:1.2 in order to obtain isocyanate terminated polyurethane prepolymers. The resulted prepolymers were casted on tin foil and cured under atmospheric moisture in order to get completely cured polyurethane–urea free films. The free films were characterized by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) techniques. The TGA and DMTA results showed that these films have good thermal and mechanical stability. Anti-microbial studies proved that these polyurethane films show good resistance towards different bacterial and fungal attacks. These polymers were also coated on mild steel panels in order to evaluate corrosion resistance properties by using salt spray and electro chemical polarization studies. 相似文献
