By studying model systems consisting of poly(ethyl acrylate) polymer chains covalently bound to silica particles, we show here how the temperature dependence of the modulus of filled elastomers can be explained by a long-ranged gradient of the polymer matrix glass transition temperature in the vicinity of the particle…
The CAIB requested these data be included in this Appendix. This Appendix is a summary of present and past efforts that were initiated to characterize the moisture absorption capability of sprayed-on-foam-insulation (SOFI) and specifically, BX-250.
In this article, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-capped gold nanoparticles were synthesized successfully by using CTAB as a phase-transfer catalyst and stabilizer simultaneously in a two-phase toluene/water system. The as-prepared gold nanoparticles were characterized and analyzed by virtue of X-ray photoelectro…
Recently a new theory of viscosity of concentrated emulsions dependency on volume fraction of droplets (Starov V, Zhdanov G: J. Colloid Interface Sci, 258, 404 (2003)) has been suggested that relates the viscosity of concentrated emulsions to formation of clusters. Through experiments with milk at different concentrat…
A general constitutive relation describing the change of viscoelastic behavior during the liquid - solid (sol - gel) transition which takes place in preceramic polymers is derived on the basis of Jeffrey’s 3-constants model with time dependent viscosities and elasticity. It is postulated that the sol - gel - transitio…
Self-sensing is the technique of using a transducer to both actuate and sense concurrently, therefore eliminating the need for separate sensors. A sensorless rheometer could be much smaller, simpler and more robust than traditional designs. One application where such a rheometer would be desired is the in-situ measure…
Large-scale molecular dynamics of cascade production of the primary damage state are performed in nanocrystalline nickel with an average grain diameter of 12 nm and primary knock-on atom kinetic energies ranging from 5 to 30 keV. The role of the grain boundary during the cascade production of irradiated NC Ni is discu…
Grain size refinement is an important strengthening mechanism in Al-Mg 5000 series alloys, which have a relatively large Hall-Petch slope compared with other Al alloys. In addition, the high work hardening rate exhibited by Al-Mg alloys provides excellent formability. This paper investigates the influence of grain siz…
Abstract The thermoplastics processing of native starch in the presence of water is a recent development with very wide possible applications. Eventually, oil‐based polymer materials have to be replaced in many applications by sustainable, inexpensive, natural materials from renewable resources. As with conventional t…
Of the several techniques available for the surface modification, plasma processing has proved to be very appropriate. The low temperature plasma is a soft radiation source and it affects the material only over a few hundred Å deep, the bulk properties remaining unaffected. Plasma surface treatment also offers the adv…
My main conclusion is that the original Williams' definition of biocompatibility still stands with respect to individual materials, but we have to move to more specific definitions within each of the varied applications of biomaterials such as those described above, and more will follow. It is time for the discussion…
This article examines the effect of interfacial load transfer on the stress distribution in carbon nanotube/polymer composites through a stress analysis of the nanotube/matrix system. Both isostrain and isostress loading conditions are investigated. The nanotube is modeled by the molecular structural mechanics method…
A simple direct foaming and casting process using ovalbumin‐based aqueous slurries for fabricating ceramic and metal foams is demonstrated. Foaming of aqueous ceramic slurries and the foam microstructure were seen to be a strong function of slurry rheology. Setting of foams with ceramic solids loading above 20 vol% wa…
It was found that doping a nematic liquid crystal (LC) with a small amount of ferroelectric nanoparticles strongly affects the dielectric properties of the system. In particular, adding the ferroelectric particles results in a shift of the absorption bands corresponding to the rotation of liquid crystal molecules arou…
Polymers have a long history in medicine. Their uses to date range from traditional applications such as catheters, syringes, blood contacting extra corporeal devices to matrices for drug delivery, cell encapsulation and tissue regeneration. Polymers can be broadly classified on the basis of the reactivity of their ch…
Test methods for evaluating flashover voltage of ceramic and nonceramic insulators under ice, snow, and cold-fog conditions are recommended. The paper describes the procedure to be followed at various stages of an evaluation test including preparation of the test object, insulator precontamination, ice, snow, and cold…
Transparent and flexible edible/biodegradable films were successfully made from myofibrillar proteins of blue marlin meat. The effect of pH of film-forming solutions on film formation, tensile strength (TS), elongation at break (EAB), water vapor permeability (WVP), light transmission, transparency, film solubility, p…
SiC powder compacts were prepared with Al 2 O 3 , Y 2 O 3 , and CaO powders. By two‐step sintering, fully dense nanostructured SiC ceramics with a grain sizes of ∼40 nm were obtained. The grain size–density trajectories are compared with those of conventional sintering processes.
