Twelve chiral and achiral self-assembling dendrons have been grafted onto a [60]fullerene hexa-adduct core by copper-catalyzed alkyne azide "click" cycloaddition. The structure adopted by these compounds was determined by the self-assembling peripheral dendrons. These twelve dendrons mediate the self-organisation of the dendronized [60]fullerene into a disc-shaped structure containing the [60]f...

We report herein the size-controlled preparation of monodispersed cuprous oxide octahedron nanocrystals smaller than 100 nm. The method is based on the reduction of copper nitrate in Triton X-100 water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsions by gamma-irradiation. The average edge length of the octahedron-shaped nanocrystals varies from 45 to 95 nm as a function of the dose rate. The quantum confinement eff...

The copper phosphinimide complexes [Cu{μ-N[double bond, length as m-dash]PR3}]4 (1, R = NMe2 and 2, R = Ph) were obtained in good yields from the reactions of Cu[Mes] (Mes = mesityl, C6H2Me3-2,4,6) with the corresponding iminophosphoranes, HNPR3. The molecular structures of 1 and 2 reveal the presence of planar eight-membered {Cu4N4} rings which contrasts with the saddle-shaped {M4N4} rings fou...

Abstract The tungsten-copper alloy liner has better performance than the copper liner. In order to study jet forming and penetration characteristics dynamic mechanical properties of alloy-shaped charge liner, this paper uses a multi-functional experimental machine Hopkinson bar device carry out quasi-static tensile impact tests, respectively, fit Johnson-Cook constitutive equation. obtained par...

The problem of transient natural convection in a cube-shaped cavity is investigated experimentally and numerically. The motion is driven by a sudden temperature difference applied to two opposite side walls of the vessel. The experiments are performed at a Rayleigh number of 1.66 · 10 and a Prandtl number of 1109, inside a 5 · 5 · 5cm cavity made of plexiglas, with two isothermal copper walls k...

The intrauterine device (IUD) is the most frequently used reversible family planning method in the world. The earlier IUDs made of inert plastic materials have largely been superseded in modern medical practice by improved designs which release copper or levonorgestrel (LNG-IUS). These modifications considerably enhanced the efficacy of the IUD. However, the modern copper IUDs in their differen...

Copper oxide has been detected in the copper containing alloys of NBS Standard Reference Material (SRM) 482. This occurrence is significant because it represents heterogeneity within a standard reference material that was certified to be homogeneous on a micrometer scale. Oxide occurs as elliptically to spherically shaped precipitates whose size differs with alloy composition. The largest preci...
