This paper describes a vision-based system that monitors the yarn density of woven fabrics on-line. The system is described in terms of its two principal modules, namely, the image acquisition and the image analysis subsystems. The image acquisition subsystem is implemented with standard components on a low-cost perso…

The morphology of the microcellular ethylene–propylene–diene terpolymer (EPDM) vulcanizes of both an unfilled and filled compound was studied from SEM photomicrographs. Carbon blacks adversely affect the average cell size, maximum cell size, and cell density. Enclosed gas pressure in a closed cell increases the relati…

Low-density polyethylene/ethylene–vinyl acetate copolymer (LDPE/EVA) blend was irradiated by γ-ray and then expanded by heat as a foamed material. The EVA content in the LDPE/EVA blend was benefited to form a gel. The gel fraction values of LDPE/EVA blend with 30% EVA content were higher than those of other blends in…

High-performance tetrafunctional epoxy resins were synthesized by reacting a suitable tetraphenols which were obtained by the condensation of appropriate dialdehyde with phenol followed by epoxidation with a halohydrin. The structure of the synthesized tetraphenols was confirmed by infrared (IR), mass spectra (MS), an…

A novel process has been developed to toughen phenolic resin by polyurethane for fiber-reinforced pultruded composites. The mechanical properties of the composites (tensile strength, flexural strength, and notched Izod impact strength) approach maximum values at 10 wt% of the blocked polyurethane content. The fabricat…

Polyaniline (PAn), an important conducting polymer, was synthesized chemically. Percentage crystallinity of PAn on doping with various dopants (viz., hydrochloric acid, formic acid, iodine, methylene blue) has been investigated using wide-angle X-ray diffraction analysis. It is observed that percentage crystallinity (…

The compatibility for binary blends of isotactic polypropylene with rubbery ethylene-α-olefin copolymers having various α-olefin contents was investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and dynamic mechanical analysis. It was found that “α-olefin rich”…

A first-principles atomic orbital-based electronic structure method is used to investigate the low index surfaces of rutile Titanium Dioxide. The method is relatively cheap in computational terms, making it attractive for the study of oxide surfaces, many of which undergo large reconstructions, and may be governed by…

The structure of CO adsorbates on the Rh(110) surface is studied at full coverage using first-principles techniques. The relative energies of different adsorbate geometries are determined by means of accurate structure optimizations. In agreement with experiments, we find that a p2mg(2x1) 2CO structure is the most sta…

The polarizing interference microscope was used to study the variation of the principal optical parameters of annealed nylon 6 Fibres at 160 ± 1°C. The resulting data were used to calculate optical orientation function, the angle of orientation and the specific refractivity of the isotropic dielectric over all the ann…

The fine-grained duplex stainless steel Fe-22Cr-5Ni-3Mo-0.3N consisting of α- and γ-Fe(Cr,Ni,Mo) solid solutions exhibits structural superplasticity at deformation temperatures of 900 to 1050°C. The equiaxed microstructure with an average grain size of dα,γ ≈ 3 μm was produced by thermomechanical processing. This stee…

The synthesis of a new class of chiral smectic liquid crystals is described, along with transition temperatures, phase behaviour, spontaneous polarizations and related data. The general structure is shown in A. possessing a chiral unit derived from 3,4-epoxy-2-octanol. Two of these new compounds show seemingly antifer…

A preceding paper [ J. Opt. Soc. Am. A7, 1736 ( 1990)] demonstrated an interesting property of perfect blazing in transmission for triangular-groove dielectric gratings. The grating was obtained by evaporating an infinitely thin layer of perfectly conducting metal on the small facet of the groove. If an antireflection…

A discussion of crystal field theory is usually included in general chemistry texts. This is likely to be one of only two places in the text - the other is the description of the hydrogen atom - where the important concept of light absorption by atoms and molecules is presented. The simple demonstration described here…
