The kinetics of sorption of atomic hydrogen by pyrolytic, quasi-single-crystal, and RGT commercial-grade graphite was studied. The processes of sorption and subsequent thermal outgassing are shown to proceed in a similar manner for all the three types of graphite. Thermal desorption spectra obtained during linear heat…

Abstract The alteration process of a subvolcanic rock with calcic plagioclase, pyroxene, and olivine as major components was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and analytical and transmission electron microscopy (TEM/AEM). Experimental interaction with 1 M NaOH solution led to the formation of dioctahedral beidel…

Triphenylamines with thienyl groups are electro-oxidatively polymerized to yield the corresponding branched polymers on an electrode. The resulting polymers show significantly better redox properties, such as redox activity, catalytic activity, and conductivity when compared with for example the linear polymeric analo…

Complete structural analysis of a Mo bicrystal containing a Σ = 3, [101](121)A grain boundary (GB) was achieved by means of transmission electron microscopy from the microscopic to the nanoscopic level. Secondary GB dislocations compensating a small deviation from the exact Σ = 3 concidence were observed and their cha…

Several Co−Ni−Mg−Al-layered double hydroxides (LDH) have been synthesized by coprecipitation at constant pH = 9. All samples present well crystallized, layered structures, no excess phases were detected by X-ray diffraction, and the lattice a parameter followed the Vegard correlation. The cations thus belong to the sa…

Lead magnesium niobate (Pb(Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 , or PMN) is a relaxor ferroelectric with many potential applications. As a relaxor ferroelectric, PMN displays a diffuse phase transition and its temperature of maximum relative permittivity ( T m ) shifts to higher temperatures as the frequency increases. When 10 mol% of…

Various compositions of the ZrO2/Nb2O5 system were synthesized and the experimental conditions for obtaining reproducible results were established. The gel was precipitated at constant pH = 10, aged at room temperature for 18 h and, after filtration, dried at 110 °C for 24 h. The phase diagram of the ZrO2/Nb2O5 system…

Excitation of Tm 3+ to 3 H 4 using the 791 nm pump source showed the frequency up‐converted blue emission (∼480 nm) due to the Tm 3+ : 1 G 4 → 3 H 6 transition in Tm 3+ /Nd 3+ codoped CaO·Al 2 O 3 glasses. Intensity and lifetime changes with rare‐earth concentrations suggested the efficient energy transfer of Tm 3+ :…

A superplastic β‐SiAlON was used as an interlayer to diffusionally bond a hot‐pressed silicon nitride to itself. The bonding was conducted in a graphite furnace under a constant uniaxial load of 5 MPa at temperatures varying from 1500° to 1650°C for 2 h, followed by annealing at temperatures in the range of 1600° to 1…
