Single crystals consisting various surface morphologies and epitaxial structures were applied to investigate the effect of other phase regions in the vicinity of a given tethered chains-covered area having a certain molecular weight of amorphous brushes. The designed experiments demonstrated that regardless of the type of surface morphology (patterned and especial mixed-brushes, homo and co...

Organic mathematics is an applied mathematics of philosophical atomism. The order of the chemical elements in the table of elements is the source of order for the logical operations of addition and subtraction of atomic numbers. The inverse square laws of physics are the source of organization of subatomic structures of chemical atoms (atomic and molecular structures). These facts are foundatio...

Individual fullerene molecules were observed and sized using high resolution transmission electron microscopy. Fullerene C60 molecules were tethered by chemical bonding to carbon black particles to facilitate HRTEM imaging and sizing of known fullerenes. HRTEM analysis of soot samples from a fullerene-forming flame revealed the presence of a range of fullerenes from C36 to C176 and larger fulle...

We construct interfacial solitary structures (spots) generated by a bistable chemical reaction or a non-equilibrium phase transition in a surfactant film. The structures are stabilized by Marangoni flow that prevents the spread of a state with a higher surface tension when it is dynamically favorable. In a system without surfactant mass conservation, a unique radius of a solitary spot exists wi...

Morphological changes and the content of free carboxyl groups in bovine collagen (type I) film under the influence of trypsin, hydrochloric acid (HCl) and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) were studied. Incubation with trypsin and HCl was found to cause some delamination of the film and the appearance of some low-density spots. Incubation with EDTA did not cause any morphological changes. ...
