The local spin method suggested previously for defining the spin state of an atom in a molecule is applied to model manganese complexes with three and four manganese centers. This method extracts from the wave function a spin for the manganese centers that has been compared to the one suggested by chemical intuition.…

Sweating operations were explored for various crystalline layers obtained during layer-melt crystallizations. The crystalline layers used in sweating operations were crystallized at different cooling rates of 0.1, 1, and 5K/min, and different feed compositions of 80, 85, and 90 wt% caprolactam–cyclo hexanone mixtures.…

Abstract We report the first in situ XPS analysis of thin epitaxial films of the ferromagnetic double perovskite Sr 2 FeMoO 6 , which have been prepared by pulsed laser deposition on (100) SrTiO 3 substrates under different oxygen pressures. The films consist mainly of the c ‐axis‐oriented SFMO phase over a wide range…

The room-temperature microstructure of the giant magnetocaloric material ${\mathrm{Gd}}_{5}{\mathrm{Si}}_{2}{\mathrm{Ge}}_{2}$ is investigated using transmission electron microscopy and selected area diffraction. Nonmerohedral twinning is identified and its twin law, which relates one twin component to the other, is r…

Several testable models for stress-corrosion cracking (SCC) of metals are discussed in terms of the main experimental variables: stress, metallurgy, and environment. Slip-dissolution, film-induced cleavage, and hydrogen embrittlement models are all shown to be consistent with experimental data in particular systems. O…

The total contents of potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg) in selected Brazilian soils (Oxisols, Ultisols, Inceptsols, and Alfisols) developed from different parent materials were investigated to estimate the contribution of clay minerals to K and Mg reserves. Total K and Mg contents in the Na-saturated clay were determin…

Melt surface tensions and pressure−volume−temperature ( PVT ) data were obtained for many hydrophobic and hydrophilic polymers including high melting polyesters and polyamides such as poly(ethylene terephthalate) and nylon 66. A model is developed that uses surface tension to convert PVT data (from which the thermodyn…

Using Langevin simulations, we examine driven colloids interacting with quenched disorder. For weak substrates the colloids form an ordered state and depin elastically. For increasing substrate strength, we find a sharp crossover to inhomogeneous depinning and a substantial increase in the depinning force, analogous t…

In solution phase synthesis of nanoparticles, processes such as coarsening and aggregation can compete with nucleation and growth in modifying the particle size distribution in the system. We show that coarsening of ZnO and ${\mathrm{TiO}}_{2}$ nanoparticles in solution follows the Lifshitz-Slyozov-Wagner rate law for…
