The structure and morphology of electrochemically deposited calcium carbonate have been investigated as a function of temperature, magnesium ion concentration, organic inhibitors, and deposition potential. At 25°C, microcrystals of calcite grew with their [104] planes parallel to the electrode surface. In the presence…
In recent years the author investigated the size and shape of linear and star-branched model chains as a function of functionality (number of arms) F and chain length (total number of beads) N for several lattice and off-lattice random walk models as well as for self-avoiding random walks (embedded in the tetrahedral…
Raman spectra were measured for lead zinc niobate-lead titanate solid solution 0.91Pb(Zn 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 –0.09PbTiO 3 single crystals over a wide temperature range (-170–650°C) with different scattering geometry. Two phase changes were clearly observed by Raman scattering at the cubic to tetragonal ( T C–T ) and tetra…
Fully aliphatic polyimides (APIs) have been synthesized. APIs were prepared by poly(addition-condensation) of the alicyclic dianhydride bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-2, 3, 5, 6-tetra-carboxylic 2, 3:5, 6-dianhydride with the aliphatic diamine 5-amino-1, 3, 3-trimethylcyclo-hexanemethylamine, the mixture of 2, 5- and 2, 6-bis(a…
Inclusion complexes between beta-cyclodextrin derivatives and 1, 2-dithione-3-thiones were studied in aqueous solution and in the solid state. Phase solubility study was used to evaluate the complexation in solution, at 37 degrees C, of three cyclodextrins, i. e., beta-cyclodextrin (betaCD), hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclode…
Generic properties of elastic phonon transport at a disordered interface are studied. The results show that phonon transmittance is a strong function of frequency and the disorder correlation length. At frequencies lower than the van Hove singularity the transmittance at a given frequency increases as the correlation…
Phases of general formula ( RE , A ) 2 M 3 O 7 (RE=lanthanide, A=Ca, Sr, Ba; M=Ga, Al) are of interest for their nonlinear optical properties and have potential as solid state lasers. Their structures have been refined using X-ray and neutron diffraction data and are related to gehlenite, Ca 2 Al 2 SiO 7 , with M cati…
The properties of polyaniline (PANI) films, grown electrochemically on Au using the potential sweep method to two different upper potential limits (type I and II) to various thicknesses in sulfuric acid solution, were studied systematically using cyclic voltammetry, ac impedance, and for the first time, by tracking th…
Billets of hexagonal boron nitride powders ( h ‐BN) were hot‐pressed, varying the alignment of the platelike particles and the amount of oxide additives. Increasing either alignment of individual grains or the amount of additives was shown to increase flexural strength, to approximately 120 MPa at ambient temperatures…
In a large Czochralski-grown Si(1-x)Ge(x) (0.02 </= x </= 0.07) gradient crystal, diffraction patterns have been measured in symmetrical Laue geometry using synchrotron radiation in the energy range 100-200 keV. The experimental data are in very good agreement with the results from geometrical optics theory for distor…
Amycolatopsis sp. strain HT-6, a poly(tetramethylene succinate) (PTMS)-degrading actinomycete, was observed to degrade poly(tetramethylene carbonate) (PTMC). In a liquid culture with 150 mg of PTMC film, 59% degradation was achieved, but with a low yield of cell growth. On the other hand, PTMS copolymerized with a sma…
ABSTRACT: An accelerated shelf‐life test was developed to estimate the texture of devil's food cake stored 21 d at 21 °C, by studying the effects of packaging film water permeability and storage temperature over time. Best results were obtained after 7 d at 34 °C with low water permeability films. The test was used to…
The use of surface-adsorbed monodisperse polystyrene spheres as a template for forming nanosized particles is described. This simple, yet general method is applicable to virtually any material that can be evaporated or sputtered, and monodisperse particles in the size range from tens of nanometers up to tens of microm…
Monitoring the condition and forecasting lifetimes of material within ageing nuclear power plant is a subject of great topicality. Among these materials are the cables of the reactor control systems necessary for safe operation, including controlled shutdown in the event of an emergency. The ability to ensure that suc…
The capsule materials Au, Ag 75 Pd 25 , and Pt, were tested for permeability to C-H-O fluids in a piston-cylinder apparatus at 10 kbar and 900-1100 °C. The capsules were embedded in boron nitride. After the experiments, the C-H-O fluids were analyzed by gas chromatography to determine the oxygen content of the capsule…
Indentation and density measurements have revealed important changes in the mechanical and physical properties of silicon carbide (SiC) due to neutron irradiation. Specifically, the changes in the elastic modulus, hardness, fracture toughness, and density with irradiation have provided an understanding of the expected…
Asymmetric biphenyl type polyimides (PI) derived from 2,3,3′,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (a-BPDA) and p-phenylenediamine (PDA) or 4,4′-oxydianiline (ODA) show higher Tgs, and much better thermoplasticity than the corresponding isomeric PIs from symmetric 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (s-BPDA…
Despite progress in the development of biodegradable polyesters, little attention has been given to aliphatic/aromatic copolyesters. Therefore, a series of such copolyesters has been synthesized by polycondensation of succinic acid (SA), dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) and 1,4-butanediol (BD), and their material characte…
The article summarizes six years of technical work carried out by the ITER Joint Central Team and Home Teams under the terms of the ITER Engineering Design Activities (EDA) Agreement. The major products of this effort are as follows: a comprehensive and detailed engineering design with supporting assessments, cost est…
Mesoscale simulations have recently been developed in order to better understand the collective behaviour of dislocations and their effects on the mechanical response. Those simulations deal with dislocations discretized into segments which are allowed to move in a three-dimensional (3D) discrete network. This network…
