The ppk gene encodes polyphosphate kinase (PPK), the principal enzyme in many bacteria responsible for the synthesis of inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) from ATP. A null mutation in the ppk gene of six bacterial pathogens renders them greatly impaired in motility on semisolid agar plates; this defect can be corrected b…
Most immiscible polymer blends are produced by melt compounding in extruders. The melting and mixing process can generate morphologies ranging from disperse drops to fibers to lamella to cocontinuous structures. Controlling these morphologies is critical to performance of the final blend. This paper reviews recent res…
A study of the exposure of SiC at 1200°C and high water‐vapor pressures (1.5 atm) has shown SiC recession rates that exceed what is predicted based on parabolic oxidation at water‐vapor pressures of less than or equal to ∼1 atm. After exposure to these conditions, distinct silica‐scale structures are observed; thick,…
The heats of combustion for 49 commercial and developmental polymers of known chemical structure were determined using an oxygen bomb calorimeter according to standard methods. The experimental results were compared with thermochemical calculations of the net heat of combustion from oxygen consumption and the gross he…
Abstract. We study the structural and thermodynamic properties of a model of point particles interacting by means of a Gaussian pair potential first introduced by Stillinger (Stillinger F H 1976 J. Chem. Phys. 65 3968). By employing integral equation theories for the fluid state and comparing with Monte Carlo simulati…
The columnar mesomorphism of triphenylene-, phthalocyanine-, tetraazaporphyrin- and porphyrin-based compounds is briefly reviewed and the potential use of this particular supramolecular structure for charge-conducting devices is discussed. Suitably substituted triphenylenes exhibit ideal material properties for photoc…
This paper proposes a new digital algorithm for the implementation of the fixed-frequency adaptive hysteresis current control for voltage-source inverters. The key features of the new algorithm are the minimization of the analog external circuitry, the capability to automatically compensate for the inverter deadtime e…
A simple and efficient methodology has been established for the selective synthesis of anatase and rutile as well as their mixtures with various precursors using ultrasound irradiation; the products, the particle sizes of which are nanometric (<9 nm), are dependent both upon the reaction temperature and the precursor…
We have developed Tersoff potential parameters for boron in order to simulate cubic boron carbonitride systems by molecular dynamics. Combined with parameters for C and N available from the literature, our parameters are shown to reproduce the lattice parameters and bulk moduli of boron nitride and boron carbonitride…
Poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA)/polyethylene glycol (PEG) microspheres are one modality of controlled delivery of biologically active molecules that would further the development of engineered tissues. As a possible mechanism to stimulate angiogenesis within an engineered tissue, vascular endothelial growth facto…
Uniformly dispersed amorphous nanoparticles of magnetite in polyvinyl alcohol have been obtained by ultrasound radiation. The properties of the as-prepared composite material were characterized by various analytical methods. We have found that the magnetite particles that were 12–20 nm in diameter were very well dispe…
The overview of the literature for a 25-year period on the combustion and fire-retardant performance of major commercial aliphatic nylons is presented. It is shown that aliphatic nylons are relatively easily ignitable materials which support combustion and are therefore required to be fire retarded for some applicatio…
Zinc self-diffusion was measured in single crystal zinc oxide using nonradioactive Zn70 as the tracer isotope and secondary ion mass spectrometry for data collection. Crystal mass was closely monitored to measure ZnO evaporation. Diffusion coefficients were isotropic with an activation energy of 372 kJ/mol. Zinc self-…
Spinel and Perovskite Functional Layers Between Plansee Metallic Interconnect (Cr‐5 wt % Fe‐1 wt % Y 2 O 3) and Ceramic ( La0.85Sr0.15 ) 0.91MnO3 Cathode Materials for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, Larring, Yngve, Norby, Truls
A series of highly fluorescent 1,8-naphthalimide derivatives having an N-allylamino group at position 4 of the aromatic structure have been synthesised, and some of their properties for application in liquid crystal displays have been determined. The optical properties of the new substances are studied both in organic…
We describe a simple graphical method for measuring film thickness by XPS, which we call a Thickogram. This method can be used even when the film and substrate peaks have very different kinetic energies and incorporates the effects of elastic scattering within the recommended range of take-off angles. The Thickogram m…
Abstract Binary cooperative complementary nanoscale interfacial materials, i.e, materials with two complementary properties on the nanoscale, are introduced as a new concept for the design of functional materials. The concept is based on the generation of nanostructures with mutually compensating properties on the sur…
Very large pore hexagonal and cellular foam-like molecular sieve silicas with well cross-linked framework walls (denoted MSU-H and MSU-F, respectively), have been prepared from soluble silicate precursors under neutral pH conditions.
Nanoporous carbon prepared by chlorination of TiC powder has been characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and showed a disordered amorphous structure of graphite planes with areas of an onion-like structure, where the graphite planes are ordered with concentric spherical graphitic she…
A unique class of polyurethane (PU) elastomer containing inorganic molecules (polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane, POSS) as molecular reinforcement in the hard segment was investigated by means of wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) techniques. WAXD results indicate that POSS m…
