Supramolecular Modifications of Semicrystalline Polymers

Michael Alan Giffin

Supramolecular interactions play an important role in defining the structure and the resulting mechanical properties of materials. For instance, interchain hydrogen-bonding in PAs gives them superior strength and stiffness in engineering materials, while t ...

Adsorption of amphiphilic grafted polymers as polymer corrosion inhibitors: insights from mesoscopic simulations

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

The homogeneous covering of amphiphillic polymer molecules onto metallic surfaces is of great importance for corrosion inhibitor applications. Lyophillic side chains grafted onto a lyophobic backbone act as anchors that allow the molecule to absorb at the ...

Synthesis of polar polynorbornenes with high dielectric relaxation strength as candidate materials for dielectric applications

Frank Nüesch

Materials with high dielectric permittivity and dielectric relaxation strength are sought for thermal and pressure sensors and electrical energy generators. However, most polymers have either too low dielectric permittivity or are so polar that their glass ...

Ripening of two-dimensional colloidal CdSe nanocrystals into zero-dimensional nanodots

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Virendra Kumar Parashar, Xiaopeng Huang

Understanding the ripening of two-dimensional (2D) colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) is important for the controllable synthesis of NCs with desired morphology and properties. In this study, we systematically investigate the ripening behavior of the 2D CdSe NCs ...
