Materials that change phase (eg, via melting) can store thermal energy with energy densities
comparable to batteries. Phase change materials will play an increasing role in reduction of …

This Viewpoint highlights the viability and increasing variety of functionalized
polypentenamers as unique and valuable materials created through enthalpy-driven ring …

The odd–even effect is a fantastic phenomenon in nature, which has been applied in diverse
fields such as organic self-assembled monolayers and liquid crystals. Currently, the origin of …

Efficient storage of thermal energy can be greatly enhanced by the use of phase change
materials (PCMs). The selection or development of a useful PCM requires careful …

Contrary to continuous phase transitions, where renormalization group theory provides a
general framework, for discontinuous phase transitions such a framework seems to be …

Elucidating the influence of the monolayer interface versus bulk on the macroscopic
properties (eg, surface hydrophobicity, charge transport, and electron transfer) of organic …

Adhesion is one of the most ubiquitous practical applications at surfaces. With today's
society calling increasingly for more reusable and “green” alternatives, the demand for …

Charge transfer (CT) complexes formed by donor–acceptor (DA) pairs play a critical role in
organic optoelectronic devices, where the CT effect is highly correlated with molecular …

The alternating physical properties, especially melting points, of α, ω-disubstituted n-alkanes
and their parent n-alkanes had been known since Baeyer's report in 1877. There is …

Розглянуто задачу адекватного прогнозування температур плавлення tmp вуглеводнів,
як базової температури для багатьох практичних розрахунків, на основі моделювання їх …
