Craze formation determines the effective strength of many structural polymers and glassy polymer adhesives. We use molecular dynamics simulations to study the evolution of craze formation in glassy polymers as the number of monomers per chain N increases. When N is less than the entanglement length N e, the polymer ca…

A scheme to evaluate the Griffith work of interfacial separation, 2γ int , is proposed based on first principles to investigate the segregation effects on a Σ11[1 0]/(11 ) γ-iron grain boundary. The chemical interaction of substitutional segregants Cr and Mn is able to enhance the cohesion of the grain boundary by ani…

The melting temperature of nano-ice confined in micropores of MCM-41 is predicted by use of our simple model based on the Lindemann criterion. The model takes into consideration the density of the OH bonds of MCM-41 pores; its prediction is consistent with the experimental results for the melting temperature of nano-i…

Aus vielen kristallinen Festkörpern lassen sich keine hinreichend großen und/oder für die Untersuchung mit Einkristall-Röntgenbeugungsverfahren qualitativ geeigneten Einkristalle erhalten. Darum ist für das Verständnis der strukturellen Eigenschaften solcher Stoffe die Möglichkeit zur Strukturbestimmung aus Pulverbeug…

Low-frequency dielectric measurements are performed on a nonchiral liquid crystal (8CB) for two different cell thicknesses 4.5 µm and 1.6 µm, as functions of temperature at various amplitudes of the probe field. Relaxation peak frequencies are observed at ~10 Hz for the 4.5 µm thick sample and ~100 Hz for the 1.6 µm c…

B-trichloroborazene reacts with bis(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide to form non-oxide gels (see scheme). The xerogels consist of a polymeric network of borazine rings linked by carbodiimide groups. Pyrolysis at 1200°C provides amorphous ceramics with the composition BC0.23N1.1Si0.05H0.09 ≈ B4CN4. At 2000°C pure B4C is for…

Eine prismenartige Hohlraumstruktur baut sich aus drei pyridylsubstituierten Porphyrin-„Platten“ auf, die durch sechs PdII-Ionen verknüpft werden. Eine drastische Strukturänderung (Symmetrieänderung von D3h nach C2) wird durch die Aufnahme von Pyren ausgelöst.

Esterified B12 icosahedra with totally organoderivatized surfaces are obtained from the reaction of [closo-B12(OH)12]2− with acetic anhydride or benzoyl chloride. The resulting “closomers”, in which each cluster vertex is substituted with an organic ester moiety, can provide camouflaged modules of variable size, shape…

The transient thermoreflectance (TTR) method consists of measuring changes in the reflectivity of a material (thin film) under pulsed laser heating, and relating these changes to the corresponding surface temperature variations. Analytical solutions of the diffusion problem are then used to determine the thermal condu…

By analyzing the point groups of the (nonsymmorphic) rod-groups of carbon nanotubes we show, for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, that all achiral carbon nanotubes possess only 8 Raman-active and 3 infrared-active phonon modes. This is in contrast to previously predicted 15--16 and 7-8 active modes, respe…
