Adsorption of Poly(vinyl formamide-co-vinyl amine) (PVFA-co-PVAm) onto Metal Surfaces
The formation of stable metal/polymer joints is an enormous challenge in material sciences. Good adhesion requires an interphase which is able to... -
Visualization of Charge Domains on Polymer Surfaces
The tribo-electric charging of polymers is widely known and applied in many technical processes. However, the molecular and electronic reasons for... -
Microwave-Assisted Synthesis and Functionalization of 2-Pyridones, 2-Quinolones and Other Ring-Fused 2-Pyridones
2-pyridones are important heterocycles with great applicability in medicinal chemistry and this core structure can be found in compounds with... -
Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Sulfur and Nitrogen-Containing Heterocycles
This chapter aims to review recent developments in the synthesis of sulfur and nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic compounds under conditions that... -
The Chemistry of 2-(1H)-Pyrazinones in Solution and on Solid Support
An overview on the microwave-enhanced synthesis and decoration of the 2(1H)-pyrazinone system is presented. Scaffold decoration using... -
Structural Aspects of Layered Double Hydroxides
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been known for a considerable time and have been widely studied. The basic features of their structure,... -
Phase behavior of phytanyl-chained akylglycoside/water systems
The aqueous phase behavior of novel alkylglycosides, AGs, that have a 3,7,11,15-tetramethylhexadecyl (phytanyl) group as their hydrophobic part was... -
Adsolubilization by mixtures of ionic and non-ionic surfactants
The adsolubilization of 2-naphthol by surfactant mixtures of ionic and non-ionic surfactants has been investigated for three systems; sodium dodecyl... -
Salt-induced aggregation in cationic liposome suspensions
The simple salt-induced aggregation of small unilamellar dioleoyltrimethylammoniumpropane [DOTAP] vesicles is investigated by measuring the change in... -
Enzymatic activity of lipase entrapped in CTAB/water/pentanol/hexane reverse micelles: a functional and microstructural investigation
The lipase VII (from Candida rugosa) activity was studied as a function of the content of pentanol and water in cethyltrimethylammonium bromide... -
Perfluoropolyether carboxylic salts in micellar solution and O/W microemulsions
High purity laboratory-scale samples of Cl(C3F6O) n CF2COOX salts are examined for their micellization in water, with n... -
Improved colloidal stability by seeded emulsion copolymerization of styrene with acrylic acid
The incorporation of acrylic acid (AA) in styrene (S) latex particles was investigated to improve colloidal stability. AA was added at high S... -
Study of the effect of porogen amount on formation of uniform polystyrene hollow particles prepared by SPG membrane emulsification technique
