A method for harvesting and purifying the thin polyamide (PA) active layer from thin-film composite (TFC) reverse osmosis (RO) membranes was developed, enabling quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements of the composition and cross-linking
In this work, we demonstrate that tracing the vapor–liquid equilibria for binary mixtures also includes all the information needed to obtain the three-phase line if one is present. This simple observation serves as a launching point for calculation of the
Reducibility is a prerequisite for the use of bulk metal oxides in chemical transformation 17 involving redox reactions but probing microscopic processes of oxide reduction is challenging as 18 the insulating nature of bulk oxides restricts ion and
The polarization response of a co-planar electrochemical capacitor covered with an ionic liquid as the electrolyte has been examined by a combination of two powerful analytic techniques, X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy and Secondary Electron Microcopy
We investigated using gradient elution moving boundary electrophoresis (GEMBE) and capacitively- coupled contactless conductivity detection (C4D) to assay total protein concentration using the BCA reaction. We chose this format because GEMBE is

Nanoporous materials (NPMs) selectively adsorb and concentrate gases into their pores and thus could be used to store, capture, and sense many different gases. Modularly synthesized classes of NPMs, such as covalent organic frameworks (COFs), offer a large

OBJECTIVES: Developing the next generation of materials for use in restorative work requires a multifaceted approach. While mimicking the properties of the tooth, currently available dental composites and porcelains eventually fail and require replacement
An overview of the effect of additives on Au electrodeposition from Na3Au(SO3)2 based electrolytes is presented with an emphasis on filling of fully metallized recessed surface features such as trenches and vias. The impact of heavy metals additives Tl+
In this work, it is shown that Chebyshev expansions can be used to provide a representation of pure fluid phase equilibria models that is approximately 400 times faster to evaluate than the full phase equilibrium calculation with multiparameter equations
Void-free Cu electrodeposition in high aspect ratio features relies on preferential growth proceeding from the most recessed surfaces where sustained breakdown of the co-adsorbed polyether-halide suppressor layer occurs. Localization is the result of
We present a series of highly cross-linked polyamide membranes, synthesized via molecular layer-by- layer (mLbL) deposition of trimesoyl chloride (TMC) and 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid (BA). These membranes exhibit superior sodium chloride rejection compared to
Computational predictions of copper deposition in millimeter size through-silicon vias (mm-TSV) are presented based on localized breakdown of a co-adsorbed polyether-chloride suppressor layer. The model builds upon previous work on localized Cu deposition

The mean free path of secondary electrons in aqueous solutions is on the order of a nanometer, making them a suitable probe of ultrathin electrical double layers at solid-liquid electrolyte interfaces. Employing graphene as an electron-transparent
