Thermodynamic and kinetic effects in the crystallization of metal–organic frameworks by Cheetham, A, Kieslich, G, Yeung, H

“…Recently, however, this simple relationship has had to be reconsidered with the emergence of some very flexible structures wherein the open structures are more stable than their denser analogues at finite temperatures because of their large vibrational entropies. In the final section we describe how the concepts developed in the MOF work have been extended into the closely related area of hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites. …”

Tissue scale electrophysiological-mechanical continuum modelling for white matter transcranial ultrasound neuromodulation by Felix, C

“…Whether or not this hypothesis is fully accurate microscopically in the context of TUS, it offers a phenomenological framework that could be used at the organ scale to quantify electrical induction in the presence of minute mechanical vibrations. However, the flexoelectric theory relies on formulations directly built on the microstructural description of the underlying dielectric polarisation. …”

Synthesis and Characterization of Epoxidized Natural Rubber/Clay Nanocomposites by Ng, Su Fang

“…The infrared spectra of CTA-MMT show the presence of the peaks at 2920 and 2850 cm-1 while ODA-MMT at 2928 cm-1 and 2854 cm-1, which correspond to the C-H asymmetric and symmetric stretching vibrations, respectively. This suggests that both cetyltrimethylammonium (CTA+) and octadecylammonium ions (ODA+) are sorbed into the silicate layers of Na-MMT. …”
