Abstract Use of abiotic chemical systems for understanding higher order superstructures is challenging. Here we report a ring‐in‐ring(s) system comprising hydrogen‐bonded macrocycle and cyclobis(paraquat‐ o ‐phenylene) tetracation ( ‐Box ) or p CBPQT 4+ , that assembles to construct discrete structures with adaptive conformation. As indicated by mass spectrometry, computational modeling, NMR sp...

Interfacial properties are known to have a critical effect on the mechanical properties of a nanocomposite material system. Here, the interfacial load transfer in a carbon nanotube (CNT)/nylon-11 composite was studied with a CNT/nylon-11 nanohybrid shish kebab (NHSK) structure modification using Raman spectroscopy. Characterization of the polymer crystal in the NHSK using differential scanning ...

Complications related to extraluminal migration of ingested kebab (sosatie) sticks are infrequently diagnosed in small animals. A total of 8 cases diagnosed with extragastric migration of ingested kebab sticks were retrospectively evaluated. No significant breed or sex predilection was found but there was a tendency for animals to present at a younger age (less than 3 years). Clinical signs (of...
