  • Mechanically interlocked nanotubes as recyclable catalysts for Knoevenagel condensation

    Mechanically interlocked nanotubes as recyclable catalysts for Knoevenagel condensation

    Synthesis and characterisation

    We synthesised MINTs with a primary amine group attached to the spacer (MINT-NH3Cl), and then either alkylated them using iodoethane (MINT-NEt2) or formed imines with picolinaldehyde (MINT-NPy) to further increase…

  • Application of UiO-66 MOF for rifampicin removal and post-adsorption antimicrobial activity against MRSA

    Application of UiO-66 MOF for rifampicin removal and post-adsorption antimicrobial activity against MRSA

    The characterization of catalyst

    The X-ray diffraction (XRD) study shows that when loaded with rifampicin the UiO-66 MOF preserves its crystalline structure, which is crucial for providing the MOF’s capacity to keep and release the drug…

  • High-stability electrohydrodynamic inkjet printing based on double closed-loop fuzzy control

    High-stability electrohydrodynamic inkjet printing based on double closed-loop fuzzy control

    Jet dynamic behavior characteristics

    EHD printing experiment was carried out without fuzzy closed-loop control, with liquid feeding rate of 10 µL/h, nozzle-collector distance of 2 mm, and collector speed of 30 mm/s. The jet solution in the…

  • Binding memory of liquid molecules

    Binding memory of liquid molecules

    The concept of molecular binding memory

    Unlike particles in solid that have fixed neighbors, liquid molecules regularly update their neighboring lists as they engage in transient interactions driven by noncovalent forces, such as electrostatic…

  • Fractional-statistics-induced entanglement from Andreev-like tunneling

    Fractional-statistics-induced entanglement from Andreev-like tunneling

    Entanglement pointer for Andreev-like tunneling

    In this work, we combine anyonic statistics with quantum entanglement and define the entanglement pointer to quantify the statistics-induced entanglement in a Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer on FQH…
