Adsorption of the natural protein surfactant Rsn-2 onto liquid interfaces
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-02-27)
To stabilize foams, droplets, and films at liquid interfaces nature has evolved a range of protein biosurfactants. Compared to synthetic surfactants, these combine surface activity with biocompatibility and low solution ...
Design principles for the formation of ordered patterns in binary mixtures of colloidal particles on spherical droplets
(Elsevier, 2017-03-11)
We elucidate the design principles for the formation of ordered structures formed by binary mixtures of particles on spherical surfaces, such as emulsion droplets, polymer vesicles, and col- loidal nanoparticles. Using ...
Chemometric approaches to low-content quantification (LCQ) in solid-state mixtures using Raman mapping spectroscopy.
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-10-30)
The low-content quantification (LCQ) of active pharmaceutical ingredients or impurities in solid mixtures is important in pharmaceutical manufacturing and analysis. We previously demonstrated the feasibility of using Raman ...
Chemical kinetics of hydrogen atom abstraction from allylic sites by 3O2; Implications for combustion modelling and simulation
(American Chemical Society, 2017-02-14)
ABSTRACT: Hydrogen atom abstraction from allylic C−H bonds by molecular
oxygen plays a very important role in determining the reactivity of fuel molecules
having allylic hydrogen atoms. Rate constants for hydrogen atom ...
Stereoselective epimerizations of glycosyl thiols
(American Chemical Society, 2017-10-17)
Glycosyl thiols are widely used in stereoselective S-glycoside synthesis. Their epimerization from 1,2-trans to 1,2-cis thiols (e.g., equatorial to axial epimerization in thioglucopyranose) was attained using TiCl4, while ...
A comprehensive iso-octane combustion model with improved thermochemistry and chemical kinetics
(Elsevier, 2017-02-05)
Iso-Octane (2,2,4-trimethylpentane) is a primary reference fuel and an important component of gasoline fuels. Moreover, it is a key component used in surrogates to study the ignition and burning characteristics of gasoline ...
Assessing the predictions of a NOx kinetic mechanism on recent hydrogen and syngas experimental data
(Elsevier, 2017-05-02)
A detailed chemical kinetic mechanism has been developed to describe the pyrolysis and oxidation of the hydrogen/NOx and syngas/NOx systems. The thermodynamic data of nitrogenous compounds have been updated based on the ...
