Adaptive Synthesis of Functional Amphiphilic Dendrons as a Novel Approach to Artificial Supramolecular Objects

Antonin Edr et al.

Summary: This report focuses on the development of versatile synthetic protocols for amphiphilic carbosilane dendrons (amp-CS-DDNs) that can self-assemble into regular micelles and other supramolecular objects. The presented strategy allows for fine modification of the amphiphilic structure and easy connection of desired functionalities. Experimental results demonstrate correlations between structural parameters of amp-CS-DDNs and the size of formed nanoparticles, while computer simulation models provide detailed information about the organization and spatial distribution of amp-CS-DDNs assemblies.

Effects of moisture and cellulose fibril angle on the tensile properties of native single Norway spruce wood fibres

Nils Horbelt et al.

Summary: This study conducted microtensile tests on isolated single wood fibres with cellulose fibril angles ranging from 10 to 43 degrees under controlled humidity conditions. Results showed that stiffness reduction is more significant in fibres with larger cellulose fibril angles as moisture content increases, and stiffness reduction in fibres with low cellulose fibril angles is observed only in the fully hydrated state. The experimental data was used to determine the moisture dependent stiffness of the hemicellulose-lignin-matrix and stresses acting on the fibrils and the matrix.

Transport of Anions across the Dialytic Membrane Induced by Complexation toward Dendritic Receptors

Petra Curinova et al.

Summary: A novel approach was proposed to induce anion transport across the dialytic membrane using dihydrogen phosphate anion, successfully tested with isophthalamide-based anion receptor anchored on a dendritic skeleton. The complexation of anionic receptor with the dihydrogen phosphate anion reduced its concentration in mother solution and facilitated its transfer across the membrane, with increased concentration observed in the compartment with dendritic receptor.
