The preparation and characterization of multinuclear catalysts based on novel dendrimers : application in the oligomerization and polymerization of unsaturated hydrocarbons
(Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2011-03)
In this thesis we describe the application of novel salicylaldimine and iminopyridyl
nickel metallodendrimer complexes as catalysts in the transformation of á-olefins as well as
in the polymerization of norbornene.

Interactions of quinoline antimalarial drugs with ferrihaem : structural and kinetic insights into the inhibition of malaria pigment formation
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2013-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The work in this dissertation provides structural and kinetic insight into the mechanism of
action of quinoline antimalarial drugs which may aid rational drug design. Quinoline
antimalarial drug-ferrihaem ...
Synthesis and characterization of multiphase copolymers
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2011-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Multiphase copolymers generally consist of copolymers where the disparate natures of each
of the segments results in complex phase-segregated morphologies in the solid state. The
outstanding properties ...

(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2014-04)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: see full text for abstract.
Electrospinning of polyacrylonitrile nanofibres with additives : study of orientation and crystallinity
(Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2010-03)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT:
Polyacrylonitrile, (PAN), polymers are of interest due to their many unique characteristics in comparison
to most other fibre forming polymers. The focus of this study was the effect of electrospinning ...
Photoelectrochemical detection of inorganic mercury in aqueous solutions
(Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2010-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Due to the adverse human health effects associated with mercury (Hg) toxicity, an
innovative method for inorganic mercury (Hg2+) determination in aqueous solutions
was investigated. The method of Hg2+ ...
