Amorphous Al 2 O 3 –37.5% Y 2 O 3 powders, prepared using spray pyrolysis followed by partial or complete thermal decomposition, were hot‐pressed at 315°–640°C and 500 or 750 MPa uniaxial pressure. Hot pressing of fully decomposed amorphous powder at 450°–640°C at pressures up to 750 MPa led to densification (up to 96…

Abstract Chronoamperometry ( i–t ) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to study the nucleation and growth mechanism of electropolymerized polypyrrole formed on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) substrate surface. From i–t measurements it was found that the nucleation and growth mechanism was a 3‐D prog…

Inorganic precipitates (scales) are one of the major flow assurance concerns in offshore oil and gas production, and lead to significant reductions in productivity and costly workovers if allowed to form uncontrolled. Scale prevention by the use of chemical inhibitors, applied either by continual injection or by squee…

Spectroscopic properties and local structure of Eu 3+ in Ge–Ga–S–CsBr (or CsCl) glasses were investigated using fluorescence measurements and several spectroscopic methods. Fluorescence from Eu 3+ : 5 D 0 → 7 F 2 was observed only from glasses with CsBr/Ga ratios greater than unity and disappeared at temperatures abov…

Three series of calamitic liquid crystals have been prepared, consisting of a mesogenic core attached to which is a perfluorinated chain via a thioester linkage, and a hydrocarbon chain containing a terminal double bond. The rigid core is either a monophenyl, biphenyl or phenyl benzoate group. The mesomorphic properti…

Kinetics and reaction paths of Fe 3+ reduction by H 2 in high-Fe and low-H 2 O silicate melts have been investigated at 800 ℃. Time-series experiments were performed in cold-seal pressure vessels at 50 bars of pure H 2 using rapid-heating and rapid-quench strategies. Within the first minutes of the experiments, a fast…

Delivery of DNA mixed with a degradable matrix carrier was supposed to improve transgene expression. Using a rabbit hind-limb ischemia model, we tested the angiogenic potency of plasmid encoding human vascular endothelial growth factor (pSG5-VEGF165) entrapped in fibrin sealant. Animals were injected intramuscularly w…

A model is proposed which imitates the morphogenesis of several species of the lower invertebrate animals, the hydroid polyps and permits the derivation of the geometry (surface curvature) of each developmental stage from that of the preceding stage. The model is based upon two experimentally verified assumptions. Fir…

A numerical study of directional solidification has been performed using a fixed-grid front-tracking algorithm. The directional solidification of pure tin, as well as the horizontal Bridgman growth of pure succinonitrile, were investigated. In both cases, the growth front was stable and nondendritic, but was significa…

The basic reason for the significant spread in the experimental data on the surface tension (σ) of aluminum is shown to be the adsorption of a residual gas in a vacuum chamber. The processing of the kinetic curves σ(θ) by a method proposed in this work yields for aluminum σ=1070 mJ/m 2 .

Improved diffraction efficiencies can be obtained in the paraxial domain of diffractive optics by considering light explicitly as an electromagnetic rather than a scalar field because of the extra freedoms provided by the state of polarization. For example, diffractive beam splitters with 100% efficiency are made poss…
