Aqueous dispersions of mixtures of low-viscosity polyanionic cellulose with microbarite are studiedby viscometry, rotational rheometry, dynamic light scattering, and laser microelectrophoresis. Owing tothe interaction of the polymer with microbarite particles, the hydrodynamic size of the particles and theirelectrophoretic mobility increase, which indicates the formation of polymer-colloidal complexes. In themode of semidilute polymer solutions, the introduction of microbarite additives is accompanied by a significantincrease in viscosity and the resulting compositions are sedimentation stable for 2 days. The frequency dependences of the storage modulus and the loss modulus show that complexation leads to a strong structuring of the system.

Machine learning (ML) has become a powerful tool for accelerating the development of carbon-based supercapacitors;
however, most published models assume that a single predictive framework can describe both conventional
porous carbons and hybrid carbon electrodes. Here, we test this assumption using a comprehensive
benchmark dataset and an extended literature-curated dataset enriched with synthesis- and electrolyte-related
descriptors. Three ML algorithms ...

Cyanide containing wastewater can cause livestock death and reduce agricultural production and electrochemical reduction of cyanide (CNRR) is a promising way to eliminate its harm and turn waste into valuable products. However, the reaction mechanism and function of electrocatalysts for CNRR have not been fully understood yet. Herein we identify a two-dimensional (2D) conductive copper-organic ...

Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals have emerged as promising materials for next-generation light-emitting diodes (LEDs) owing to their solution processability, tunable emission wavelengths, narrow emission linewidths, and high photoluminescence quantum yields. Among them, anisotropic nanocrystals, including one-dimensional nanorods (NRs) and two-dimensional nanoplatelets (NPLs), offer additional opportunities for controlling transition dipole moment orientation and light out-coupling efficiency. These ...

The use of hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as extractants for metal ion separation is largely due to the ease of their preparation and the possibility of modifying them depending on the composition of the metal mixture to be separated. However, the most common approach to DES modification involves the replacement of the extractant, while ...

Two voluminous polymer silver(I) salts of perchlorinated dodecoborate clusters, {[(Me2CO)Ag(μ-Me2CO)2Ag(Me2CO)][μ-B12Cl12]}n (1) and {[DMFAg(μ-DMF)2AgDMF][μ-B12Cl12]}n (2) were synthesized. The 35Cl nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) spectroscopy supplemented with the X-ray diffraction data was applied for identifying and analyzing noncovalent interactions Cl···X in these salts. Whereas in X-ray diffraction, noncovalent interactions are associated with the presence of the shortened ...

Despite the well-established importance of chalcogen bonding in crystal engineering and supramolecular chemistry, experimental charge density data for TeII-centered chalcogen bonds have remained entirely absent, leaving the electronic nature of these interactions uncharacterized at the level of directly measured electron density. Here, we report the first high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD) study of TeII-centered chalcogen bonds, ...

Off-stoichiometric boron-doped chemically complex intermetallic alloys (CCIMAs) have recently emerged as a new avenue for overcoming the low temperature brittleness of ordered superlattices. However, their behavior at high temperatures remains unexplored. In this study, a novel (Ni39.6Co29.3Cr10Al15.8Ta3.3Nb2)98.5B1.5 CCIMA was prepared and its oxidation resistance over a wide temperature range (500 °C–950 °C) was studied. The ...

We report a high-performance implementation of the resolution-of-the-identity Hartree–Fock method that fully exploits the permutational symmetry of three-center electron repulsion integrals (ERI). The present implementation adopts a hybrid MPI+OpenMP parallelization strategy. Two different algorithmic approaches (with and without the pre-transformation of ERIs) are compared. A custom data layout introduced previously is employed. Designed to efficiently ...

The development of lead sulfide (PbS) quantum dot (QD) photodetectors for short-wave infrared (SWIR) applications has been fundamentally limited by the thermodynamic instability of large PbS QD facets, which leads to aggregation and epitaxial fusion. In this work, robust thermodynamic stabilization was achieved by introducing methylammonium chloride (MACl) in PbS QD surface passivation, as validated ...

Targeted protein degradation represents a promising therapeutic strategy, yet its broader application is often limited by the scarcity of usable E3 ligases. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) is a key target for inducing ferroptosis, but achieving sustained and potent inhibition remains challenging with conventional enzymatic inhibitors.

We develop a three-mode statistical-mechanical theory for a two-conformer
solute in a near-critical solvent. A compressible lattice model with
vacancies yields the Gaussian free-energy functional for a critical conserved
density, an orthogonal noncritical conserved mode, and the local conformer
fraction. Their couplings follow from packing and cohesive interactions,
rather than being introduced phenomenologically. Kawasaki transport of the
two conserved fields and ...

Exact theories of electrolyte structure must satisfy the nonlocal constraints imposed by electrostatic screening, yet these constraints are most commonly formulated only for homogeneous bulk systems and at the level of two-point correlations. Here, we develop a unified field-theoretic framework that extends them to general inhomogeneous ionic fluids and nonlinear charge correlations. Using a standard ...

A heptafluorobutyric acid-induced cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction of arylamines with 1,2,4-triazines has been described. This metal-free protocol enables regioselective para-C–H hetarylation of diverse arylamines including well-known fluorophore scaffolds, such as triphenylamine, carbazole, and phenothiazine, with easily accessible 1,2,4-triazines under mild conditions. This approach has potential for drug development and material design. ...
