Aromatic dicarboxylic acids, such as terephthalic (TPA) and isophthalic (IPA) acids having different structures of the activated carboxyl groups were prepared in situ by the reaction of the diacids with TsCl/DMF/Py containing various amounts of DMF. The polycondensation involved by these carboxyl groups using 0.3 equi…

Methods to reveal the macrostructure of spheroidal graphite cast iron (SGI) are not available. This has caused a number of controversies involving the solidification mechanism of this metallic alloy. The objective of the present work is to examine the use of a novel technique (DAAS) reported recently, to reveal the so…

The influence of precipitates on the development of microstructure and crystallographic texture during cold rolling was investigated in particle-containing Al-Cu and Al-Mn single crystals with the initial orientations (011)[100], (011)[211] and (112)[111]. Analysis of the X-ray rolling textures yielded broad scatter o…

The semiconductor-metal-semiconductor transitions in stoichiometric FeS compounds were observed under nearly hydrostatic pressure condition up to 8 GPa and a temperature down to 4 K. In the low-pressure semiconductor state, the energy gap caused by the electron correlation decreases with a volume reduction. On the oth…

The thermal expansion behaviour of silver fcc has been described by an anharmonic Einstein model using EXAFS data in the temperature range between 10 and 300 K. The linear expansion coefficient of a bulk silver foil agrees well with X-ray diffraction data. In the case of silver particles embedded in a silicate glass m…

Numerical simulations are presented that document the strong effect of a previously underappreciated portion of two‐stage thermal treatments used in the study of nucleation processes: the “heat‐up” process whereby samples are heated from “nucleation” conditions to “growth” conditions. The simulations indicate that two…

NAD+-dependent formate dehydrogenase (FDH) from Candida boidinii was cloned and expressed to a high level in Escherichia coli (20% of soluble E. coli protein). Molecular modelling studies were used to create a three-dimensional model of C. boidinii FDH, based on a known structure of the Pseudomonas sp. 101 enzyme. Thi…

Diamond films were grown by a 5-kW microwave plasma CVD reactor with an input microwave power of 2.0–4.5 kW at a gas pressure of 100–120 torr using CH 4 –H 2 –O 2 gas mixtures , and the growth rate, surface morphology , film texture as well as the quality of the films, were examined. The highest growth rate achieved u…

The magnetic properties of LaFeO3–LaCrO3 superlattices have been artificially controlled by adjusting the atomic order of the B site ions via changes of the stacking direction of the 〈100〉, 〈110〉 and 〈111〉 planes and adjustment of the stacking periodicity. When Fe and Cr layers are atomically stacked along the 〈111〉 d…

A conclusive safety assessment of a fusion reactor requires that the thermal response of the divertor assembly is known with a high degree of accuracy. Such accuracy is mandated because the divertor assembly is subjected to the highest levels of incident heat flux within the reactor. In order to accurately predict the…

Rosalind Franklin's earliest research involved studies of coal, carbon, and graphite. She made a number of enduring contributions in these areas, most notably identifying the fundamental distinction between graphitising and non-graphitising carbons. Her work on carbon also provided a valuable background for her later…
