Scaled particle theory is used to calculate the equation of state for and the free volume accessible to a non-adsorbing polymer, represented by spheres, in a system of colloidal platelets, represented by cut spheres. At low densities the predictions agree very well with computer simulations. For infinitely thin discs,…
The carbon nanocoil is an interesting kind of nanomaterial, which is expected to have various novel applications in microelectronics, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and bioMEMS due to its nanosize coil morphology. Carbon nanocoils were synthesized by catalytic pyrolysis of acetylene over 2.2–3.0 µm Ni particles…
The grafting of malonamide-type molecules onto the surface of mesoporous silicate MCM-41 in a two-step process is demonstrated. This synthesis route yields a large surface concentration of accessible extraction sites as high as 2.5 μmol m -2 . The textural properties of the materials are shown to be preserved, as demo…
The ultrastructure of fibrous long spacing (FLS) collagen fibrils has been investigated by performing both atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) on exactly the same area of FLS collagen fibril samples. These FLS collagen fibrils were formed in vitro from type I collagen and alpha1-ac…
Abstract The solution polycondensation of a mixture of various parts of isophthalic acid (IPA) and terephthalic acid (TPA) with 4,4′‐dihydroxydiphenylsulfone (BPS) with tosyl chloride/dimethylformamide/pyridine as a condensing agent was studied. To elucidate how the reaction should be done to obtain copolymers of high…
Abstract A comprehensive study of the three‐layer film coextrusion was performed. Plasticized wheat starch (PWS) was chosen as the film central layer, and poly(ester amide) (PEA) was used as the surface outer layers. Single‐screw extruders and a standard feedblock attached to a flat coat‐hanger die were used to prepar…
In an extension of our previous study on the electron polarons and excitons in KNbO 3 , KTaO 3 and BaTiO 3 (Kotomin E A, Eglitis R I and Borstel G 2000 J. Phys. Condens. Matter 12 L557; Eglitis R I, Kotomin E A and Borstel G 2002 J. Phys. Condens. Matter 14 3735) by the semiempirical Hartree–Fock method we present her…
A novel arsenic-selenium solution species was synthesized by reacting equimolar sodium selenite and sodium dimethylarsinate with 10 mol equiv of glutathione (pH 7.5) in aqueous solution. The solution species showed a single (77)Se NMR resonance at 112.8 ppm. Size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) using an inductively cou…
Doping (protonation) of polyaniline (PANI) in the oxidation state of emeraldine with diesters of 4-sulfophthalic acid containing flexible alkyl or alkoxy substituents leads to flexible, partially crystalline polymeric conductors which show supramolecular organization of layered-type. Diesters doped PANI exhibits two g…
The static and dynamic properties of 2- and 3-dimensional dispersions of strongly interacting colloidal spheres are examined. Quasi-2-dimensional dispersions of particles interacting by long range electrostatic and dipolar magnetic forces, respectively, are investigated using Brownian dynamics computer simulations wit…
Abstract The aim of this work is to evaluate routes to upgrade recycled engineering plastics, especially mixed plastics with acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene copolymers (ABS) as the major component. A core‐shell impact modifier was successfully used to improve the impact strength of blends of ABS and ABS/polycarbonate…
We achieved separate detection of the components of 10 ppm of a benzene, toluene, and o-xylene mixture gas by using mesoporous silica powder incorporated in our microfluidic device. The device consists of concentration and detection cells formed of 3 cm x 1 cm Pyrex plates. We first introduced the mixture gas into the…
Abstract The graft copolymerization of acrylamide–methylacrylate comonomers was carried out using ceric ammonium nitrate as initiator in the presence of nitric acid at 25 ± 1°C. The effects of feed molarity, feed composition, reaction time, and temperature on graft yield (% G ) and other grafting parameters were inves…
The Raman spectra of tetragonal CaMoO 4 (scheelite structure, C 4h 6 space group) have been measured in the temperature range 12–1300 K. At high temperatures, the frequency and linewidth of all Raman-active phonons vary almost linearly with temperature, indicating that the three-phonon decay processes are dominant ove…
Studies on a large number of compositions among the ferromagnetic self-doped manganites, La 1−x MnO 3 , show that the ferromagnetic Curie temperature increases with x and reaches a maximum value for x = 1/7. T c remains independent of x for x ≥ 1/7 and the maximum value of the magnetization is obtained for x = 1/8. Th…
We shall discuss the following phenomena found in various colloidal systems in shear flow. We recently observed shear-banding in suspensions of fd-virus in a cylindrical shear cell. Small angle light scattering experiments revealed that the shear-banding transition is preceded by a relatively fast process (minutes) of…
We show that crystals of molecular nanomagnets can exhibit giant magnetic relaxation due to the Dicke superradiance of electromagnetic waves. Rigorous theory is presented that combines superradiance with the Landau-Zener effect.
Two-dimensional electromagnetic crystals formed by rectangular lattices of thin ideally conducting cylinders periodically loaded by bulk reactive impedances are considered. An analytical theory of dispersion and reflection from this medium is presented. The consideration is based on the local field approach. The trans…
The Hamiltonian of the wurtzite quantum rods with an ellipsoidal boundary is given after a coordinate transformation. The energies, wave functions, and transition possibilities are obtained as functions of the aspect ratio e with the same method we used on spherical dots. With an overall consideration of both the tran…
Abstract A radiofrequency air plasma has been used to incorporate new functionalities at the surface of cycloolefin polymers (Zeonex® and Topas®), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), styrene–acrylonitrile copolymer (SAN), and polystyrene (PS). The main goals with the plasma treatment of the different plastics were to hydr…
