Hydrodynamics and microphase ordering in block copolymers: Are hydrodynamics required for ordered phases with periodicity in more than one dimension?
(The American Institute of Physics, 2004-12-08)
We use Brownian dynamics (BD), molecular dynamics, and dissipative particle dynamics to study the phase behavior of diblock copolymer melts and to determine if hydrodynamics is required in the formation of phases with ...
Vapor-based polymer coatings for potential biomedical applications
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2006-12)
Over the last decade, biology and biotechnology have witnessed an extraordinary development spanning genomics, proteomics, and metabolics. This progress was so rapid and definite that it not only changed the face of modern ...
Soluble InP and GaP Nanowires: Self-Seeded, Solution–Liquid–Solid Synthesis and Electrical Properties
(WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2009-04-27)
A facile, self-seeded , solution–liquid–solid growth of soluble InP and GaP nanowires with a very low amount of native point defects with respect to the carrier concentrations have been synthesized (see scheme) and ...
Ring-opening polymerization of epoxy end-terminated poly(ethylene oxide) as a route to highly crosslinked materials with exceptional swelling behavior (II)
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2007-08)
Highly swellable poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) gels were prepared by anionic ring-opening polymerization of diepoxy end-capped PEO (3400 g mol −1 ) and PEO (8000 g mol −1 ) using dianionic glycerol and glycolic acid initiators ...
Synthetic nano-fibrillar extracellular matrices with predesigned macroporous architectures
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2000-11)
Scaffolding plays a pivotal role in tissue engineering. To mimic the architecture of a natural extracellular matrix component—collagen, nona-fibrous matrices have been created with synthetic biodegradable polymers in our ...
Multicompartmental Microcylinders
(WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2009-06-08)
FarbenprÄchtige SÄulen : Eine einfache und dabei skalierbare Methode zur Herstellung multikompartimentalisierter Mikrozylinder, bei denen innerer Aufbau, SeitenverhÄltnis und OberflÄche gezielt eingestellt werden kÖnnen, ...
Synthesis and Erosion Properties of PEG-Containing Polyanhydrides
(WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2007-05-10)
To tailor the erosion rate of polyanhydrides while retaining their surface erosion characteristics, new three-component polyanhydrides of sebacic acid, 1,3-bis( p -carboxyphenoxy)propane and poly(ethylene glycol) were ...
Polymeric Core–Shell Assemblies Mediated by Host–Guest Interactions: Versatile Nanocarriers for Drug Delivery
(WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2009-01-19)
No Abstract
Engineering new bone tissue in vitro on highly porous poly(Α-hydroxyl acids)/hydroxyapatite composite scaffolds
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2001-02)
Engineering new bone tissue with cells and a synthetic extracellular matrix (scaffolding) represents a new approach for the regeneration of mineralized tissues compared with the transplantation of bone (autografts or ...
Nano-fibrous scaffolding architecture selectively enhances protein adsorption contributing to cell attachment
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2003-11-01)
Tissue engineering aims at resolving problems such as donor shortage and immune rejection faced by transplantation. Scaffolds (artificial extracellular matrices) have critical roles in tissue engineering. Recently, we ...
