Outlook and Perspectives
Nuclear resonant scattering has significantly benefitted from the development of third-generation synchrotron radiation sources. This trend will... -
General Aspects of Nuclear Resonant Scattering
Nuclear resonant scattering (NRS) unites a number of different scattering processes that can be used to investigate properties of condensed matter.... -
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... -
Specific ion effects: why colloid science has failed to contribute to biology
Surface tension of salt solutions and double layer forces between charged interfaces show marked specific ion effects not accommodated by the... -
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... -
Rates of incorporation of small molecules into pluronic micelles
The kinetics of incorporation of the hydrophobic dye 1,6 diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) into block copolymer micelles (F127) have been studied using... -

Probe entrapment by vesicular systems in relation with the properties of the amphiphilic film
Two different vesicular systems were investigated as regards their ability to substantially retain a hydrophilic probe. The first system was a series... -
Self-assembly of homogeneous systems
The circle packings including non-periodic packings can be analysed for physical and thermodynamic stability for a triangular net with T 4=3–6... -
Encapsulation of alkaline phosphatase in polyacrylamide microparticles using the concentrated emulsion polymerisation method
Polyacrylamide microparticles were prepared by the concentrated emulsion polymerisation technique. In distilled water the microparticles have... -
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... -
Electrochemistry and Electrogenerated Chemiluminescence of Semiconductor Nanocrystals in Solutions and in Films
A retrospective overview of electrochemical studies of semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) is given. The electrochemical behavior of monodisperse NCs... -
General Theory of Superexchange in Molecules
After recalling the basic physical backgrounds, we examine the concept of magnetic orbital, which is very useful for treating the mechanism of... -
Synthesis of Single-molecule Magnets Using Metallocyanates
Cyanometallate building blocks are inert and stable molecules that may act as ligands towards metal complexes. A stepwise approach allows... -
Preparation of Novel Materials Using SMMs
Magnetic hysteresis is considered a distinctive feature of bulk magnetic materials, where it arises from long-range ordering and irreversible... -
Single-Chain Magnets:Theoretical Approach and Experimental Systems
Recently, a new class of nano-magnets has been discovered and called single-chain magnets (SCMs) by analogy to the single-molecule magnets (SMMs).... -
Theoretical Aspects of Phase Transitions in Ferroelectric Thin Films
Phase transitions in ferroelectric thin films are discussed theoretically on the basis of the Tilley–Zeks model for the case where the transition is...
