Abstract Dynamic rheological measurements were carried out on blends of poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK)/poly(aryl ether sulfone) (PES) in the melt state in the oscillatory shear mode. The data were analyzed for the fundamental rheological behavior to yield insight into the microstructure of PEEK/PES blends. A variatio…

Transient NO x storage and TPD runs were performed for a feed of NO or NO 2 in the presence or absence of O 2 over Ba/Al 2 O 3 and Pt−Ba/Al 2 O 3 . A kinetic model for NO x storage previously developed in the literature was used to simulate the majority of the results, after only the Pt and Ba dispersions had been ada…

The efficient filtering of unfeasible conformations would considerably benefit the exploration of the conformational space when searching for minimum energy structures or during molecular simulation. The most important conditions for filtering are the maintenance of molecular chain integrity and the avoidance of steri…

The synthesis of nanocomposites via emulsion polymerization was investigated using methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer, 10 wt % montmorillonite (MMT) clay, and a zwitterionic surfactant octadecyl dimethyl betaine (C18DMB). The particle size of the diluted polymer emulsion was about 550 nm, as determined by light scatter…

We demonstrate that when a single-walled carbon nanotube is under pressure it undergoes a series of shape transitions, first transforming from a circle to an oval and then from an oval to a peanut. Most remarkably, the ratio of the area of the tube cross sections at the second transition over that at the first transit…

Abstract Spectroscopic [UV–visible and Fourier transform IR (FTIR)] and thermal properties of chemically synthesized polyanilines are found to be affected by varying the protonation media (acetic, citric, oxalic, and tartaric acid). The optical spectra show the presence of a greater fraction of fully oxidized insulati…

The resolution of far-field optical microscopes, which rely on propagating optical modes, is widely believed to be limited because of diffraction to a value on the order of a half-wavelength $λ/2$ of the light used. Although immersion microscopes have slightly improved resolution on the order of $λ/2n$, the increased…

The growth and dynamics of solid surfaces displays a multitude of power law relationships, which are often associated with geometric self-similarity. In many cases the mechanisms behind these power laws are comparatively trivial, and require little more than dimensional analysis for their derivation. The information o…

The simulation study on Frenkel pair creation in vanadium by L.A. Zepeda-Ruiz et al. (Phys. Rev. B 67, 134114, 2003) is criticized for its lack of reference to existing experimental work and for generally inadequate treatment of literature data. Hence, the validity of the ensuing discussion of various results (e.g. th…

From a multiple scale analysis, we find an analytic solution of spherical and cylindrical Poisson-Boltzmann theory for both a 1:2 (monovalent co-ions, divalent counter-ions) and a 2:1 (reversed situation) electrolyte. Our approach consists in an expansion in powers of rescaled curvature $1/(κa)$, where $a$ is the coll…
