High pressure die cast magnesium alloy AM50 is currently used extensively in complex shaped automotive components with various cross-section thicknesses. Understanding of the effect of section thicknesses on mechanical behavior of AM50 is critical for proper design of different applications. In the present study, magn…
Microstructural evolution of bulk undercooled Ni-40wt%Pb hypermonotectic alloy was systematically investigated by using molten glass purification and superheating cycling. Within the achieved undercooling range, the microstructures were classified into three categories. When the undercooling was less than 50K, the mic…
Poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) was synthesized by the ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide and the shape memory behavior was studied using DSC and bending test experiments. The results indicate that the specimen shows the shape memory effect (SME), the small crystalline phase of PLLA and the mobility of amorphous phase ma…
We present here results of Brillouin scattering from bulk and surface phonons propagating in a well known ferroelectric–ferroelastic crystal β-Gd2(MoO4)3, in the temperature range covering the phase transition. Temperature dependences of the velocity of Rayleigh surface acoustic waves, propagating in a few planes of t…
AZ31 and experimental ZMA611 alloys were strip cast into 2 mm thick strips. The as-cast AZ31 alloy strip consists of columnar dendrites. On the other hand, as-cast ZMA611 alloy strip shows equiaxed dendritic structure through the thickness of strip. These alloys were subjected to various thermomechanical treatments an…
In this study, a novel bioabsorbable porous bone scaffold reinforced by chitin fibres was prepared, the porosity of which is about 90 % and the pore size is approximately 200µm. The Advanced Rheological Enlarged System (ARES) was used to study the dynamic rheological behaviors of the ropy materials which would be made…
Nanostructured mesoporous magnetic (m-Fe 3 O 4 ) particles are promising candidate materials for separation, detoxification, and precious metal recovery. The silanation of m-Fe 3 O 4 particles using 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane is described. The silanized films were characterized using XPS, diffuse-reflectance FTIR sp…
In the applications of thermoluminescence (TL) in dosimetry and archaeological and geological dating, a desirable dose dependence of TL intensity is a monotonically increasing function, preferably linear. It is well known that in many dosimetric materials, nonlinear dependence is observed. This may includ eas uperline…
This paper presents a thermodynamic analysis of capillary condensation phenomena in cylindrical pores. Here, we modified the Broekhoff and de Boer (BdB) model for cylindrical pores accounting for the effect of the pore radius on the potential exerted by the pore walls. The new approach incorporates the recently publis…
A series of ladder polysiloxanes was prepared by oxidation of the corresponding ladder polysilanes with m CPBA ( m -chloroperbenzoic acid), and their structures were determined. Complete oxidation of all Si−Si bonds was accomplished with a large excess of m CPBA using long reaction times.
The dielectric response of strontium barium niobate with 61% Sr has been studied from kHz to THz frequencies by means of several techniques (IR and time domain THz spectroscopy, the coaxial technique and dielectric spectroscopy) over a wide temperature interval: 20?600?K. A strong dielectric anisotropy is present in a…
We report synthesis of nanowires and nanoribbons of the charge-density-wave conductor NbSe(3) through direct reaction of Nb and Se powders. The transverse dimension of the obtained nanostructures, as identified with scanning/transmission electron microscopy, ranges from 20 to 700 nm. X-ray and selected area electron d…
According to our "block-copolymer-free" strategy for self-assembly of polymers, noncovalently connected micelles (NCCM) with poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) as the core and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) as the shell in aqueous solutions were attained due to specific interactions between the component polymers. The micella…
A simple way to obtain a conducting nanocomposite is described, and the conducting particles are characterized. Core-shell particles [polystyrene-polyaniline (PANI)] have been obtained by the dispersion process from three types of polystyrene latexes: a no-cross-linked core stabilized by a nonylphenolethoxylate (NP40)…
The dimer alpha-[{K(H2O)2}(Si2W18O66)]15- (1), synthesized by reacting K10A-alpha-[SiW9O34] with two equivalents of H+ in aqueous solution, has been characterized by polarography and 183W NMR spectroscopy. Nine resonance signals have been observed with the tetrabutylammonium salt in dimethylformamide/acetonitrile solu…
We developed a new type of wire-grid polarizer that has achieved excellent optical performance and reliability. The nanowire-grid polarizer is based on a fully optimized innovative design structure that consists of not only the core nanowire grid but also the surrounding multilayer thin-film structures. The surroundin…
We demonstrate selective growth of vertically aligned ZnO nanowires on a (100) Si substrate using a patterned thin film ZnO seed layer. Metal catalysts, which can be a source of contamination, were not used. A single-crystalline structure with c -axis preferred orientation and a strong intrinsic near band edge photolu…
LaPO(4) and CePO(4) nanorods/nanowires with controlled aspect ratios have been successfully synthesized using a hydrothermal microemulsion method under mild conditions. It has been shown that the obtained LaPO(4) has a monoclinic structure, while CePO(4) exists in the hexagonal structure. Uniform nanorods/nanowires wi…
Recent studies on hard and tough biological materials have led to a concept called flaw tolerance which is defined as a state of material in which pre-existing cracks do not propagate even as the material is stretched to failure near its limiting strength. In this process, the material around the crack fails not by cr…
We present Raman scattering and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) measurements on hydrogen plasma etched single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). Interestingly, both the STM and Raman spectroscopy show that the metallic SWNTs are dramatically altered and highly defected by the plasma treatment. In addition, structural…
