Micellization in vegetable oils: A structural characterisation

Fadel, Ophélie; Girard, Luc; Gomes Rodrigues, Donatien; Bauduin, Pierre; Le Goff, Xavier; Rossignol-Castera, Anne; L’Hermitte, Annabelle; Diat, Olivier

The solubilisation of polar and polyphenol antioxidant in vegetable oils was studied. It was shown that the use of a polyglyceryl-3-diisostearate (PG3DS), a bio-sourced emulsifier well known in cosmetics, increases the yield of solubilisation thanks to some aggregation properties analysed using x-ray scattering technique. We show indeed that PG3DS forms…

Mesoporous Silica Coated Polydopamine Functionalized Reduced Graphene Oxide for Synergistic Targeted Chemo-Photothermal Therapy

Shao, Leihou; Zhang, Ruirui; Lu, Jianqing; Zhao, Caiyan; Deng, Xiongwei; Wu, Yan

The integration of different therapies into a single nanoplatform has shown great promise for synergistic tumor treatment. Herein, mesoporous silica (MS) coated polydopamine functionalized reduced graphene oxide (pRGO) further modified with hyaluronic acid (HA) (pRGO@MS-HA) has been utilized as a versatile nanoplatform for synergistic targeted chemo-photothermal therapy against cancer. A…

Mesochanneled Hierarchically Porous Aluminosiloxane Aerogel Microspheres as a Stable Support for pH-Responsive Controlled Drug Release

Vazhayal, Linsha; Talasila, Sindhoor; Abdul Azeez, Peer Mohamed; Solaiappan, Ananthakumar

The molecular-scale self-assembly of a 3D aluminosiloxane (Al–O–Si) hybrid gel network was successfully performed via the cocondensation of hydrolyzed alumina (AlOOH) and (3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane (APS). It was transformed into a microspherical aerogel framework of Al–O–Si containing mesochannels with tunable hierarchically bimodal meso/macroporosities by a subcritical drying technique.…

Melt Crystallization Behavior and Spherulitic Morphology of Poly(Trimethylene Terephthalate)/Poly(Propylene Glycol) Copolymers with Different Poly(Propylene Glycol) Molecular Weights

Li, Peng; Yao, Chenguang; Yang, Guisheng

Poly(trimethylene terephthalate)/poly(propylene glycol) (PTT/PPG) copolymers with different PPG molecular weights (400–4,000 g /mol) were successfully synthesized and characterized. Double melting endotherms during isothermal melt crystallization were observed by differential scanning calorimetry. Middle-temperature melting endotherms in all copolymers were stronger than that in PTT homopolymer…

Mechano-switchable, luminescent gels derived from salts of a long-chained, fatty-acid gelator

Zhang, Mohan; Weiss, Richard G.

Stimulus-responsive molecular gel systems, based on metal salts of a luminescent gelator, 9,10-dioxooctadecanoic acid (DODA), are reported. These salts are structurally the simplest metallo-gelators of which we are aware that exhibit controllable mechano-responsive and luminescent properties. Aggregation is more favored by the metal salts than for DODA itself. However, gelation…

Mechanically robust conductive carbon clusters confined ethylene methyl acrylate–based flexible composites for superior shielding effectiveness

Bhawal, Poushali; Ganguly, Sayan; Das, Tushar Kanti; Mondal, Subhadip; Das, N. C.

Arresting of conducting carbon black into polymeric matrix to develop flexible and light weight composite has been a widely practiced platform. Extensive development of telecommunication creates a major vexations regarding radiation pollution. Thereafter, we have been motivated to develop low-cost, flexible composites of specialty carbon black VXC (Vulcan XC 72)–filled…

All-small-molecule organic solar cells based on an electron donor incorporating binary electron-deficient units

Feng, Guitao; Xu, Yunhua; Zhang, Jianqi; Wang, Zhaowei; Zhou, Yi; Li, Yongfang; Wei, Zhixiang; Li, Cheng; Li, Weiwei

In this work, solution-processed organic solar cells with conjugated small molecules both as electron donors and electron acceptors were studied, where the influence of the chemical structures of the donor and acceptor on the device performance was systematically investigated. A small molecular donor incorporating binary electron-deficient units, diketopyrrolopyrrole and pentacyclic…
