Abstract A generalized equation was derived to calculate the melting temperatures of homopolymers and copolymers. The Gibbs‐Thomson equation for homopolymers and a modified application to copolymers were derived using the proposed equation. The melting temperature T m 0 in the Flory equation corresponds to the melting…

A micromechanics method is developed for the effective magnetostrictive behavior of magnetostrictive composite materials. Explicit relations for determining the effective magnetostriction of the particulate composites with cubic magnetostrictive crystallites are derived and reduce to the well-known results in the case…

Abstract tert-Butoxy groups were introduced at 2 and 2′-positions of the thiophene rings of a dithienylperfluorocyclopentene to prepare a photochromic compound with a thermal cycloreversion reactivity and a low photocycloreversion quantum yield. The cycloreversion quantum yield was similar to the isopropyl-substituted…

The interaction between dissolved Ba 2+ and dissociated ammonium salt of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA‐NH 4 ) in aqueous suspension has been studied. The dissolved Ba 2+ causes flocculation of dissociated PAA‐NH 4 , thus degrading its dispersing effectiveness in aqueous BaTiO 3 suspensions. The concentration of PAA‐NH 4 req…

We previously isolated pleiotrophin (PTN) from bovine bone as a protein and showed that it stimulated osteoblastic growth and differentiation. Further details of its function, however, have not been fully clarified. The aim of this paper was to elucidate the effects of PTN on bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-induced e…

Thermal stability of ultra-fine grained (UFG) nickel (mean grain size 114 nm) prepared by high pressure torsion was studied by means of positron-lifetime spectroscopy (PLS) combined with TEM. The experimental results obtained by PLS are interpreted using the diffusion trapping model, which allows for determination of…

In the fuel cycle system of the ITER, a large fraction of tritium inventory is expected to be in the cryogenic distillation columns of the hydrogen isotope separation system (ISS). Therefore, the numerical estimation method of hydrogen isotopes inventory in the ISS with high precision is strongly required from safety…

A new technique has been developed using a tiny thermistor 0.3–0.5 mm in diameter to determine thermal conductivity of biomaterials over a wide temperature range. Based on steady-state spherical heat transfer in an infinite homogeneous medium, thermal conductivity of the measured medium can be determined from the powe…

Ge–As–Ga–S glasses codoped with Er3+ and Pr3+ were synthesized for fiber-optic amplifiers operating in both 1.3 and 1.5 μm communication windows. The energy transfer between Er3+ and Pr3+ in Ge–As–Ga–S glasses was analyzed quantitatively using rate equations. The energy transfer coefficients responsible for two differ…

Aniline is oxidized to nitrosobenzene as the initial product, which undergoes further oxidation to nitrobenzene. The nitrosobenzene formation is catalyzed by functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT) followed by a coupling reaction between nitrosobenzene and aniline to produce azobenzene. This coupling require…
