In this paper, a Sm(III) cluster-based 2D coordination polymer {[Sm(2-stp)center dot 3(H2O)]center dot(H2O)}(n), (where 2-stp = 2-sulfoterephthalate),1has been synthesized hydrothermally and doped into poly(methyl methacrylate ...

We present that high birefringent nematic liquid crystal, 4-n-pentyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl, was incorporated into the polyacrylonitrile precursor which has a strong polar cyano group so as to produce electrospun nano-fibers, ...

In this study, flexible piezoelectric nanogenerators (PNGs) were fabricated using the composite fibers which were prepared by combining polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) and nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4) nanoparticles (NPs) at ...

Electrospinning is a powerful and promising technique in production of nano-materials namely nano-fibers. Nano-sized materials show properties apart from their macroscopic/bulk sizes, and enable us to fabricate materials ...

Here, we first report a study on coumarin 500 and liquid crystal including polyacrylonitrile nanofibers in terms of synthesis, characterizations, and supercapacitor performances. SEM, POM, FTIR, and DSC measurements showed ...

Cyanobiphenyl homologues are important liquid crystals to use in some applications since they exhibit intrinsic properties in a certain temperature interval including room temperature. Recently, generating composites with ...

Two new Holmium3+ and Ytterbium3+ compounds, {Ho(4cba)3(phen)(H2O)} (1) and {Yb(4cba)3(phen)} (2) (4cba = 4-Cyanobenzoic acid, phen = 1,10-Phenanthroline) were synthesized. These compounds were then incorporated into a ...
