Two types of hybrid vascular grafts were hierarchically structured with an autologous smooth muscle cell (SMC)-inoculated collagen gel layer and an endothelial cell (EC) monolayer, and wrapped with different elasomeric scaffolds. Type A graft was wrapped with poly(urethane)-nylon mesh, and type B graft was wrapped wit…

ABSTRACT: : Four different whey‐protein‐isolate (WPI)/plasticizer formulations were compared to determine which provided the most gloss and which was most stable with time when applied on chocolates. The 4 plasticizers studied were glycerol, polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG 400), propylene glycol (PG), and sucrose, all in…

A relationship between the measurable monomer-monomer structure factor, and the centre-of-mass (CM) structure factor of dilute or semi-dilute polymer solutions is derived from Ornstein-Zernike relations within the "polymer reference interaction site model" (PRISM) formalism, by considering the CM of each polymer as an…

The effect of a transverse tensile stress on the electric‐field‐induced 90°‐domain reorientation in tetragonal lead zirconate titanate (PZT) near the morphotropic phase boundary was investigated in situ using X‐ray diffraction (XRD). The XRD intensity ratio, I (002) / I (200) , which represents the ratio of the volume…

The surface‐crack‐in‐flexure (SCF) method uses a Knoop indenter to create small, semielliptical surface precracks in beam specimens. Lateral cracks may interfere with the primary median crack and cause errors of up to 10% in determination of fracture toughness, particularly for materials for which the fracture toughne…

The results of an investigation concerning a mechanism of brittle fracture in glass reinforced plastic (GRP) rods used in non-ceramic insulators (NCI) are presented. Commercial grade GRP rods and GRP rods from actual insulators were exposed to ultra-pure water (UPW) and acids while being subjected to mechanical stress…

Hydrotalcite (HT) conversion coatings are a possible alternative to chromate conversion coatings (CCC) for the pretreatment of aluminum aerospace alloys, but they must meet several criteria for acceptance. Relevant to acceptance are the abilities of these coatings to provide stand-alone corrosion protection, suitable…

Abstract A one-shot-laser-pulse (6 ns) irradiation converted the electronic state of Na0.68Co1.20[Fe(CN)6]·3.7H2O from FeII(S=0)-CN-CoIII(S=0) to FeIII(S=1/2)-CN-CoII(S=3/2) at room temperature. This photochemical reaction was observed only above the power density of 45 mJ pulse-1 cm-2, and its quantum yield amounted…

In this work we have investigated the electrocatalytic activity for O2 reduction of monomeric (FePcTA) and polymeric (poly-FePcTA) iron tetraaaminophthalocyanine, deposited on glassy carbon. The activity of the electropolymerized ligand (poly-H2PcTA) was also investigated. Its activity is much lower than the activity…

Thin films of ZnxIn2Ox+3 (x=2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and 15) were grown by pulsed laser deposition and their electronic properties characterized. Through resistivity, Hall mobility and carrier concentration measurements as a function of temperature, we found that whatever the composition, these films behave as n-type…

Dolomite powder from Coín (Spain) was heated in air at a constant rate of 2°C/min to 1000°C, while neutron diffraction patterns were collected every 150 s. Rietveld refinement was applied and raw intensity data were used to monitor decomposition. The full process happened in two stages: dolomite decomposition to give…

The dielectric relaxation strength of the β process, Δεβ, in a rigid-molecular glass of 16.6 mol % chlorobenzene cis-decalin mixture increases slowly with temperature, T, until the glass-softening range is reached, and thereafter it increases rapidly, i.e., (dΔεβ/dT) increases at Tg relatively abruptly. This is remark…

Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers were prepared by linking methyl methacrylate and ethylenediamine successively on an amine core. Surface modification of PAMAM dendrimer was done by fatty acid grafting converting them to a unimolecular micellar system (Dendrimer grafts). IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR studies confirmed the struc…
