An amphiphilic triblock co-polymer of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone)-b-poly(methyl methacrylate)-b-poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP-b-PMMA-b-PVP) was synthesized via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The block co-polymer can be directly blended with polyethersulfone (PES) using dimethylacetamide (DMAC) as the solvent to prepare flat sheet and
Hierarchical self-assembly offers elegant and energy-efficient bottom-up strategies for the structuring of complex materials. For block copolymers, the last decade witnessed great progress in diversifying the structural complexity of solution-based assemblies into multicompartment micelles. However, a general understanding of what
Oxygen vacancies (V(O)s) in ZnO are well-known to enhance photocatalytic activity (PCA) despite various other intrinsic crystal defects. In this study, we aim to elucidate the effect of zinc interstitials (Zn(i)) and V(O)s on PCA, which has applied as well
The direct α-methylenation of benzylpyridines was achieved using N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) as a one-carbon source under copper catalysis. An intermediary species was detected at an early stage, and a possible mechanism was proposed. Additionally, α-oxygenation and dimerization of benzylpyridines could also
Three experiments conducted to improve the survival of emu sperm during cryopreservation aimed to: (1) minimize chilling injury during the cooling phase; (2) determine the osmotic effects of dimethylacetamide (DMA), sucrose and trehalose; and (3) investigate the timing and nature
