Rheologically tuned diffusion modulates quorum sensing in Vibrio fischeri

Understanding how the physical properties of a fluid influence bacterial behavior is essential for explaining how microorganisms interact with their environment and with animal hosts. Here, we examine how changes in fluid viscosity and rheological properties affect the locomotion...

Ti3C2Tx Nanosheets-Modified Phase Change Microcapsules with Thermally Induced Heat Transport Switching for Battery Thermal Management and Thermal Runaway Propagation Mitigation

Abstract Microencapsulated phase change materials for battery thermal regulation require efficient heat transport during normal operation and thermal resistance during thermal runaway propagation. MXene modified inorganic phase change microcapsules (IPCM/MXene) were prepared by i...

An efficient photo-Favorskii rearrangement of α-chloroketones for the synthesis of 2-arylpropionic acids

2-Arylpropionic acids, exemplified by ibuprofen, are important structural motifs widely found in bioactive molecules and pharmaceutical agents, and their industrial synthesis is therefore of considerable significance. Herein, we report a systematic study of the photo-Favorskii re...
