Nascent ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is a thermoplastic material, consisting of nodular-fibrillar structure making it too much porous. At the present work, the effect of both particle morphology and chain entanglements on the sintering of UHMWPE was investigated. Neck growth for particles of three…

Molecular dynamics simulations are used to provide strong evidence for barrier-free nucleation events in a heterogeneous solid-solid system. The barrier-free events are characterized by an absence of an incubation time and a growth rate of the emerging phase that is independent of the system size. Furthermore, an anal…

Abstract Nitrates have long been ignored for practical uses as nonlinear optical (NLO) materials because they are usually very easy to dissolve in water; despite this, the π‐conjugated [NO 3 ] − is among the most desirable NLO‐active structural units. The cooperation of three structural chromophores, namely, Bi 3 O 6…
