Sequential and controlled release of small molecules from poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel-based reservoir devices
Download2016
Serpe, Michael J., Wong, Ka Y., Ahiabu, Andrews, Gao, Yongfeng
Systems composed of a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-acrylic acid (pNIPAm-co-AAc) microgels (AAc-MG) and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-3-(acrylamido)phenylboronic acid) (pNIPAm-co-APBA) microgels (APBA-MG) were used to sequentially release small molecules to a system in a controlled and triggered...

Monodisperse Pd nanocubes of 20 nm rib length and Pd nanospheres of 3 nm diameter deposited on corundum were used as efficient tool to reveal structure sensitivity of three-phase hydrogenations of unsaturated alcohols. For an olefin alcohol hydrogenation in the kinetic regime, surface (100) atoms...

Standard Operating Procedures for Analysis of Naphthenic Acids from Oil Sands Process-Affected Water
Download2014-12-08
Mahdavi, H., Hepperle, S., Burkus, Z., Mian, H.
Naphthenic acids (NAs) are considered the main source of chronic and acute toxicity in oil sands process-affected water (OSPW). The purpose of this investigation is to establish elements of a standard procedure to determine and minimize the amount of NA loss during storage, sample preparation...
