The kinetics of weak gelation is modelled as a system of spherical particles interacting with sticky hard-sphere pair potentials. Gradual cross-linking of primary particles to form disordered non-close-packed aggregates of greater total excluded volume than the separate non-bonded primary particles leads to a steady i…

The presence of metal particles within a gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) might initiate a sparkover and lead to fatal failure of an electric power transmission system. In order to investigate the behavior of a particle in a GIS, the model electrodes and the measuring system are constructed. The motion of a particle was…

Current consumer demands have led to increased interest in subjective evaluation of textile properties, but their assessment is often carried out by using techniques which cannot be justified as strictly valid. Tests in which a standard comparison is available are usually more likely to correlate well with objective m…

Cerium dioxide is a rare earth oxide material that can be useful in various optical and electronic applications because of its high refractive index and its dielectric constant. The purpose of this study was to conduct an x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis of sputtered cerium dioxide thin films. The thin films…

A number of recent reviews and books on silkworm and spider silks have been published and the historical aspects of the field are reviewed therein (Livengood, 1990; Robson, 1985; Asakura and Kaplan, 1995; Kaplan et al., 1991, 1992b, 1994). Silks can be defined as externally spun fibrous protein secretions. Of the natu…

The kinetics of depletion of the first-row transition-metal atoms Co and Ni upon interactions with O 2, NO, and N 2 O were studied in a fast-flow reactor at a He pressure of 0.70 Torr. The depletion rate constants were determined for the first and second excited states of both atoms, Co(b 4 F J, a 2 F J ) and Ni(a 3 D…

The glass transition temperature ( T g ) of wool and its dependence on water content is reinvestigated using differential scanning calorimetry (dsc). Previous studies with dsc have not accounted for the influence of thermal history, which may introduce a large variability in T g measurements. Because the T g of wool i…

Discotic cholesteric phases with extremely small pitches were obtained with cellobiose derivatives as chiral dopants. These binary mixtures tend to form up to three distinct blue phases. An interesting property of these mixtures is that the blue phases can be supercooled to a glass-like state. Microscopic studies, ref…

In the presence of [MoH(SC6H2Pri3-2,4,6)3(PMePh2)] in tetrahydrofuran (thf), anhydrous N2H4 disproportionates to N2 and NH3 or is reduced to NH3 by Zn–HOC6H3Pri2-2,6 (69–81% conversion over 16 h). Reaction of [MoH(SC6H2Pri3-2,4,6)3(PMePh2)] with anhydrous N2H4 in thf–MeOH at low temperature gave the complex [MoH(SC6H2…

The existing isotropic model equations of hysteresis in magnetic materials have been extended to include the effects of anisotropy and texture. This has proved particularly important as the model has been used to describe an increasing range of magnetic materials in which anisotropy plays a significant role, for examp…
