From a macroscopic point of view phase transitions as surface melting or two dimensional (2D) towards three dimensional (3D) growth mode (Stranski-Krastanov transition) can be described in terms of Gibbs excess quantity duly amended by size effects (since usual Gibbs excess quantities are only well defined for semi-in…

Blood vessels are diverse in size, mechanical and biochemical properties, cellular content, and ultrastructural organization depending on their location and specific function. Therefore, it is required to control the fabrication of vascular grafts for obtaining desirable characteristics of blood vessel substitutes. In…

Abstract In this article, we consolidate several literature reports in an attempt to provide a structural definition of a polymer brush as a tethered polymer layer with a high grafting density of polymer chains. We will try to distinguish a brush from grafted polymer layers and coated layers and provide a reasonable a…

The experimental work presented focuses on transient growth, morphological transitions, and control of xenon dendrites. Dendritic free growth is perturbed by two different mechanisms: Shaking and heating up to the melting temperature. Spontaneous and metastable multitip configurations are stabilized, coarsening is red…

Abstract A method for the production of transparent carbon nanotube networks (CNTNs) over transparent substrates was developed. In this method, CNTNs were grown directly in the target surface by applying the catalyst in specific zones of the substrate through lithographic techniques. The networks can be also transferr…

Abstract We report an alternative method to modify talc for use in the fabrication of composites of polypropylene (PP) and talc. Grinding pulverization is employed to prepare talc fillers (referred to hereafter as p ‐talc). The properties of composites made with p ‐talc compare favorably with composites made with pulv…

The pyrochlore-type matrices containing up to 10% wt. of U, Np, Pu and Am oxides were produced by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) proposed as a method of preparation of the ceramic mineral-like matrices for immobilization of actinides. It was shown that basically the matrices consist of a phase of yt…

Chain dynamics in macromolecules that occur with slow characteristic exchange frequencies (1−100 Hz) influence the bulk mechanical properties of polymers. In this contribution, we systematically evaluate the change in conformational reorientations of individual polymer backbones once they form a miscible binary blend,…

Even six years after the first discovery of superconductivity in MgCNi3, the synthesis of this compound in the form of single crystals has not been very successful. Highly volatile Mg and less-reactive C are the main obstacles. Now, the synthesis and characterization of these single crystals are reported (see figure),…
