This work studies how the variation of the inter-atomic distance affects the total energy in addition reactions of several vinyl radicals on vinyl monomers. Based on the energetic profiles obtained, the corresponding ...

We present two models for the stepwise copolymerization between a three-functional monomer As and a bifunctional monomer B2 where both intramolecular reaction and different intrinsic reactivities of reactive sites are ...

Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic widely used in the treatment of human and animal diseases and can be found as a contaminant in some foods of animal origin, such as milk. Thus, the use of molecularly imprinted polymers based ...

Copolymers containing N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone as a common monomer with acrylic acid, 4-methyl styrene and vinyltrichlorosilane of different comonomer compositions were synthesized and characterized. Copolymer composition was ...

Aim of this work is to investigate the effect of monomers containing either carboxylate (ammonium acrylate) or acrylamide (hydroxymethylacrylamide) functional groups on the surface charging and theological behavior of ...

Aquaporins (AQPs) function as tetrameric structures in which each monomer has its ownpermeable pathway. The combination of structural biology, molecular dynamics simulations, andexperimental approaches has contributed to ...

An efficient strategy to synthesize novel biobased multifunctional benzoxazine compounds was developed using the 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl guanidine (TMG)-triggered esterification of natural phloretic acid with organic halides ...
