Hydrophobic transfer of RTV silicone rubber aged in single and multiple environmental stresses and the behavior of LMW silicone fluid | IEEE Journals & Magazine | IEEE Xplore
This paper describes the hydrophobic transfer of unfilled room temperature vulcanized silicone rubber (RTV) resulting from UV radiation, corona discharges, high temperature, and a deposition of ...

Parts per Million Detection of Alcohol Vapors via Metal Organic Framework Functionalized Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensors | Analytical Chemistry - ACS Publications
Vapors with mPa partial pressures, ppm concentrations, could successfully be detected, e.g., an LOD of 2.5 ppm for methanol detection was acquired. The difference in recognition behavior of the ...

Simple Strategies to Quantify and Control Polymer Threading into Micropores | Journal of the American Chemical Society - ACS Publications
We chose to functionalize ZIF-8 with three different types of molecules: benzalkonium chloride (a small molecule), poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM, a polymer), and lactoglobulin (a globular ...

Occupancy of the HbYX hydrophobic pocket is sufficient to induce gate opening in the archaeal 20S proteasomes - eLife
The wider and now more hydrophobic IT switch pocket likely promotes IT switch to switch to the open state, providing flexibility for the αP17 loop intra-subunit motions, or “slack”. In addition, the ...
