High-Impact PLA in Compatibilized PLA/PCL Blends: Optimization of Blend Composition and Type and Content of Compatibilizer
(Wiley, 2023-12)
In this work, the effectiveness of seven commercial compatibilizers is tested in polylactide (PLA)/poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) blends with different compositions to obtain a high-impact PLA. None of the compatibilizers is ...
Metamorphosis of a Commodity Plastic like PVC to Efficient Catalytic Single-Chain Nanoparticles
(Wiley, 2023-11)
We perform the conversion of a commodity plastic of common use in pipes, window frames, medical devices, flexible hoses, etc. like polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to single-chain nanoparticles (SCNPs). SCNPs are versatile, ...
Electrochemical hydrogenation of NO and CO: Differences and similarities from a computational standpoint
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
Electrolyzers can help in restoring the balance to the biogeochemical cycles of carbon and nitrogen while producing valuable chemical compounds. Before that happens on a global scale, various hurdles need to be overcome, ...
Biodegradable polyesters with potential applications in 3D printing: structure, morphology and crystallization
(2023-10-09)
En este trabajo se han estudiado varios sistemas basados en poliésteres con el objetivo de ampliar su conocimiento y difundir su uso. La familia de poliésteres más investigada en esta tesis es la de los polihidroxialcanoatos ...
Disappearance of Melt Memory Effect with Comonomer Incorporation in Isodimorphic Random Copolyesters
(ACS, 2023-10)
Melt memory effects in polymer crystallization have attracted much attention in the past few years. Although progress has been made in understanding how the chemical structure of polymers can affect melt memory, there are ...
Orchestrated mass transport for quantitative liquid-phase transmission electron microscopy
(2023-11-03)
This doctoral thesis was realized at the frontier between Liquid-Phase Transmission Electron Microscopy (LP-TEM) and Microfluidics. It contributes to the elevation of LP-TEM to a quantitative experimental technique for the ...
Rules governing metal coordination in Aβ–Zn(ii) complex models from quantum mechanical calculations
(RSC, 2023-10)
Transition metals directly contribute to the neurotoxicity of the aggregates of the amyloid-forming Aβ peptide. The understanding and rationalization of the coordination modes of metals to Aβ amyloid is, therefore, of ...
The Debye’s model for the dielectric relaxation of liquid water and the role of cross-dipolar correlations. A MD-simulations study
(AIP, 2023-10)
By means of massive (more than 1.2 · 106 molecules) molecular dynamics simulations at 300 K we have disentangled self- and cross-dipolar contributions to the dielectric relaxation of liquid water that cannot be experimentally ...
Influence of chain topology on gel formation and direct ink printing of model linear and star block copolymers with poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(ε-caprolactone) semi-crystalline blocks
(Elsevier, 2023-12-11)
In this work, a set of well-defined linear triblock copolymers and star block copolymers (3 and 4-arms) with semi crystalline blocks consisting of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL), synthesized ...
Minimum conditions for accurate modeling of urea production via co-electrolysis
(Nature, 2023)
Co-electrolysis of carbon oxides and nitrogen oxides promise to simultaneously help restore the balance of the C and N cycles while producing valuable chemicals such as urea. However, co-electrolysis processes are still ...
