To make this process easier, Honda tested adding organic silane compounds, which accelerate oxidization. In 2005, his team reported that adding 5% amino and epoxy silane to Japanese lacquer sap ...

Increased environmental awareness is expected to drive the demand for solvent-free, UV-cured coatings, leading to higher ...

They focused on the "amino-silane" molecular family for passivating perovskite solar cells. "Passivation in many forms has ...

Amino acids are small molecules that are the building blocks of proteins. Proteins serve as structural support inside the cell and they perform many vital chemical reactions. Each protein is a ...

The sequence of amino acids in the chain determines how the chain will fold up to make the protein, so different proteins have different three-dimensional shapes. The three-dimensional shape of a ...

As a general rule, all the aminic polyols are much more reactive in the reaction with the aromatic isocyanates than the polyether polyols for rigid polyurethane (PU) foams initiated by polyolic ...

For example, glycine is the simplest amino acid. An equation for the formation of a polypeptide which is made only from glycine is: ...

Semiconductors have a valence band that is filled with electrons and an empty conduction band separated by a band gap (also called energy gap). For an electron to be excited into the conduction ...
