Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of water confined in nanospaces between layers of talc (system composition Mg(3)Si(4)O(10)(OH)(2) + 2H(2)O) at 300 K and pressures of approximately 0.45 GPa show the presence of a novel 2-D ice structure, and the simulation results at lower pressures provide insight into the mechani…
We discuss magnetotransport measurements on individual single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with low contact resistance, performed as a function of temperature and gate voltage. We find that the application of a magnetic field perpendicular to the tube axis results in a large magnetoconductance of the order of e2/h at…
Abstract In this study we investigated the performance of multilayer coextruded linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE) blown films. Five‐layer films were compared with monolayer dry‐blended films, and the effects of layer composition and layout on the end‐use properties of the coextruded films were highlighted. Three…
We describe in situ neutron reflectivity (NR) and RAIRS studies of the chemical modification of films of a polypyrrole-based conducting polymer derived from the pentafluorophenyl ester of poly(pyrrole-N-propanoic acid) (PFP) electrodeposited on electrode surfaces. We explore the role of the solvent in controlling the…
We discuss the need for discretization to evaluate the configurational entropy in a general model. We also discuss the prescription using restricted partition function formalism to study the stationary limit of metastable states where a more stable equilibrium state exists. We introduce a lattice model of dimers as a…
The local atomic structure of habit-modifying transition metal cations within the crystal lattice of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) is investigated using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X-ray standing wave (XSW) spectroscopy, together with molecular modeling. XAS reveals the transition metal cations to b…
Abstract Summary: The glycolysis of PET by oligoester diols in the presence of zinc acetate was carried out in two successive twin‐screw extruders with total residence times of 4 min and without solvent. These new glycolysates were analyzed and used in polyurethane formulation with a commercial polyol. The reactivity…
Abstract Summary: A fluorine containing hyperbranched polymer was synthesized by modifying an aromatic‐aliphatic hyperbranched polyester with a semifluorinated alcohol via a Mitsunobu reaction and was subsequently used as an additive in cationic photopolymerization of an epoxy resin. The remaining OH groups of the flu…
Abstract Freeze‐dried samples were prepared from dilute solutions of atactic polystyrene (a‐Ps) in benzene in a concentration range of 1 × 10 −1 to 2 × 10 −5 g/mL, and their glass transition temperatures ( T g ) were determined by differential scanning calorimetry. It was found that below a critical concentration ( C…
Abstract Summary: Polyelectrolyte multilayer microspheres were prepared by alternating adsorption of dextran sulfate and protamine on melamine formaldehyde cores followed by the partial decomposition of the core. Peroxidase and glucose oxidase were immobilized in the prepared microspheres. Retention of enzymatic activ…
Abstract Ground rubber powder (GRP) and devulcanized rubber waste obtained using the process of continuous shear flow reaction were used as both fillers and a part of rubber in virgin natural rubber (NR). The cure characteristics, swelling behavior, cross‐link density, mechanical properties, and morphology were studie…
Abstract Carbon combustion synthesis of oxides (CCSO) is a novel process to rapidly produce high‐purity, submicron, and porous powders of complex oxides. It is a modified form of self‐propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS) that uses carbon as the fuel instead of a pure metal. The CO 2 release increases the poros…
The high-energy vibrational modes of metallic carbon nanotubes are believed to be softened compared to the semiconducting ones by a Peierls-like transition. The Raman modes, when excited with a red laser to enhance the metallic tubes, were found to exhibit an exceptionally high sensitivity to electrochemical doping. O…
Abstract The rheological behaviors of in situ microfibrillar blends, including a typical semicrystalline/semicrystalline (polyethylene terephthalate (PET)/high‐density polyethylene (HDPE)) and a typical amorphous/semicrystalline (polycarbonate (PC)/HDPE) polymer blend were investigated in this study. PET and PC microf…
In this paper, we describe the synthesis and photophysical properties of a series of acridine-triarylamine redox cascades. These cascades were designed in order to promote photoinduced hole transfer from an acridine fluorophore into an adjacent triarylamine. The excited dipolar state then injects a hole into the triar…
A detailed chemical kinetic modeling investigation of n -butane and n -pentane oxidation interaction with NO to NO 2 conversion is presented. The model was validated against experiments obtained in an atmospheric-pressure, quartz flow reactor, which was used to examine the NO oxidation behavior for the temperature ran…
The Ti3+ center, based on a regular Ti site perturbed by an oxygen vacancy (VO), is identified by electron spin resonance (ESR) in textured BaTiO3 films. The center shows tetragonal symmetry along cubic ⟨100⟩ axes with g-factors: g‖=1.997, g⊥=1.904. The spectrum of this defect disappeared after the film annealing at 7…
Predicting the performance of thermoelectric materials requires precise knowledge of the Fermi surface and near-lying electronic structures. While ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{2}{\mathrm{Te}}_{3}$ is a major constituent of the active layers in commercial thermoelectric coolers, ab initio electronic structure theory heretofore has…
Water quality assessment protocols based on the use of diatoms are now well developed and their value substantiated at an international level. The use of diatoms is not designed or intended to be a “rapid” technology. The detailed level of information generated from the procedure outweighs perceived disadvantages of t…
Abstract Summary: The growth of surface‐initiated poly([2‐(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride) (pMETAC) brushes by ATRP was monitored by the quartz crystal microbalance technique with dissipation (QCM‐D). The change in mass of the quartz crystals starting from the adsorption of a thiol initiator monolaye…
