Uncertainty quantification of a newly optimized methanol and formaldehyde combustion mechanism
(Elsevier, 2017-09-27)A detailed reaction mechanism for methanol combustion that is capable of describing ignition, flame propagation and species concentration profiles with high accuracy has been developed. Starting from a modified version of ... -
Understanding the antagonistic effect of methanol as a component in surrogate fuel models: A case study of methanol/n-heptane mixtures
(Elsevier, 2021-01-19)Methanol is a widely used engine fuel, blend component, and additive. However, no systematic auto-ignition data or laminar flame speed measurements are available for kinetic studies of the effect of methanol as a blending ... -
Unexpected effects of catalytic amounts of additives on crystallization from the gas phase: Depression of the sublimation temperature and polymorph control
(American Chemical Society, 2016-04-11)Sublimation of carbamazepine, piracetam, diflunisal, and p-minobenzoic acid is enhanced by the presence of additives. Temperature reductions and polymorph control have been observed. Sublimation of carbamazepine containing ... -
Unprecedented B―H activation through Pd catalysed B―Cvinyl bond coupling on borane systems
(Wiley, 2011-04-20)A Pd-induced cascade B–Cvinyl coupling that produces multiple B–Cvinyl bonds starting from a single B–I bond has been demonstrated. The process is most probably stimulated by the geometrical disposition of the B–H bonds ... -
Unprecedented morphology control of gas phase cocrystal growth using multi zone heating and tailor made additives
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-04-15)Herein, it is shown for the first time that cocrystals can be grown by cosublimation with unprecedented morphology control using tailor made additives. Multicrystalline sea-urchin motifs and solids that look like candy-floss ... -
An updated experimental and kinetic modeling study of n-heptane oxidation
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2016-07-25)This work presents an updated experimental and kinetic modeling study of n-heptane oxidation. In the experiments, ignition delay times of stoichiometric n-heptaneiair mixtures have been measured in two different high-pressure ... -
Use of sublimation catalysis and polycrystalline powder templates for polymorph control of gas phase crystallization
(American Chemical Society, 2018-05-08)In pursuit of a solvent-free green alternative to solution-based processes, we have applied the combined use of catalytic additives and polycrystalline powder templates for polymorph control of gas phase crystallization ... -
Using polarized Total Synchronous Fluorescence Spectroscopy (pTSFS) with PARAFAC analysis for characterizing intrinsic protein emission
(Elsevier, 2019-10-15)Using polarized Excitation Emission Matrix (pEEM) spectroscopy to measure the intrinsic emission of proteins offers a potentially useful methodology for a wide variety of potential applications. However, the presence of ... -
Using rapid compression machines for chemical kinetics studies
(Elsevier, 2014-04-26)Rapid compression machines (RCMs) are used to simulate a single compression stroke of an internal combustion engine without some of the complicated swirl bowl geometry, cycle-to-cycle variation, residual gas, and other ... -
Using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and fluorescence spectroscopy for screening yeast extracts, a complex component of cell culture media
(2012)Yeastolate or yeast extract, which are hydrolysates produced by autolysis of yeast, are often employed as a raw material in the media used for industrial mammalian cell culture. The source and quality of yeastolate can ... -
The very different effect of water on nucleation, crystallization, and hydrate stability of zingerone and vanillate esters
(American Chemical Society, 2020-01-09)Vanillin and vanillate esters are widely used as flavorings in the food industry, and the vanillin derivative zingerone is one of the compounds found in the spice ginger. Neither the growth of single crystals of zingerone ... -
What controls the magnetic interaction in bis-mu-alkoxo Mn(III) dimers? A combined experimental and theoretical exploration.
(Wiley, 2012-03-29)The synthesis and magnetic characterisation of a series of bis-mu-alkoxide bridged MnIII dinuclear complexes of general formula [MnIII2(mu-OR)2(biphen)2(ROH)x(L)y] (where R=Me, Et; H2biphen=2,2'-biphenol and L=terminally ... -
Widely applicable metallacarborane reagents for π-conjugated systems
(American Chemical Society, 2014-05-12)The compounds [N(CH3)4][3,3′-Co(8-(p-C6H4C2H3)-1,2-C2B9H10)(1′,2′-C2B9H11)], [N(CH3)4][3,3′-Co(8-(p-C6H4CHO)-1,2-C2B9H10)(1′,2′-C2B9H11)], and [N(CH3)4][3,3′-Co(8-(m-C6H4CHO)-1,2-C2B9H10)(1′,2′-C2B9H11)] were synthesized ...
