Developing a simple, general, and isothermal self-replicating system is one of the key requirements for a simplified detection platform for nucleic acid sequences specific to a disease causing microrganism. One of the challenges in achieving nucleic-acid templated isothermal amplification is that...

Tuning π-Conjugated Polymers with Heteroatoms: Synthesis of Polytellurophenes and Soluble Polyacetylenes
DownloadFall 2021
This Thesis describes the synthesis and investigation of π-conjugated oligomers and polymers with optoelectronic properties affected by the presence of a heteroatom. Two major classes of polymers are discussed: 1) polytellurophenes, where the backbone is formed by 5-membered heterocycles...

Textile products that repel water and stains while retaining breathability have traditionally been made possible through one widely-used type of chemistry, perfluorinated chemicals or, PFCs. These chemicals have also been used in many fire retardants, as well as—most famously—in the “non-stick”...

Many textile products contain flame retardants to meet flammability or fire safety standards. Flame retardants (FR) inhibit or slow down fire, and thus fulfil a vital role: nobody wants their bed or couch to catch fire and result in flashover. However, research indicates that not all flame...
