Here, a new bottom-up synthesis route is used to prepare functionalised nanoplatelets, in apolar organic solvents, via the hydrolysis of organometallic reagents; the products can be prepared in high yield, at room temperature. In particular, a series of layered zinc hydroxides, coordinated by aliphatic carboxylate ligands, were produced by the hydrolysis of diethyl zinc and zinc carboxylate mixtures, optimally at a molar ratio of [COOR]/[Zn] ¼ 0.6. Layered zinc hydroxides coordinated by oleate ligands form high concentration solutions of isolated monolayers (3 nm thick x 26 nm) in apolar organic solvents (up to 23 mg mLÀ1 in toluene), as confirmed by both Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Unported Licence. atomic force and transmission electron microscopies of deposited species.

That simple act changed her life forever. Actually, her life had been changing slowly over the previous few months, but everything came to a head starting at 5:15 a.m. the day she was shot. Let’s take a look. 5:15 a.m. “Mama! Where’s Sa…” Marla Gershe barged through the aluminum doors leading to the looming floor, stopping abruptly to stare at the far wall where ten names on the in- board lit up red confirming the obvious: Mama had only half a staff. The flimsy doors behind Gershe waffled in the silence. She looked over at the short woman wearing optical enhancers on her nose. “Where are your weavers?” Marla called, jerking her head toward the nearly empty room.
