Molecular orientation effects in a surface-confined, free-radical reaction

Article Abstract:

Pyrolysis of silica-immobilized 1,3-diphenylpropane (DPP) is examined in the presence of a series of isomeric co-attached hydroaromatic spacer molecules to explore the role of molecular orientation on a free-radical reaction under surface confinement. The DPP pyrolysis rate is found to be sensitive to both the structure of the spacer and its attachment orientation to the surface.

Morphology control of phase-separation-induced alumina-slica macroporous gels for rare-earth-doped scattering media

Article Abstract:

Phase-separation behavior in the sol-gel system of alumina-silica in the presence of poly(ethylene oxide) is investigated. The reduction of Sm(super 3+) to Sm(super 2+) is accomplished in Al2O3-SiO2 macroporous glasses by heat treatment in a reducing atmosphere.
