It is well known that caliper readings decline after the initial application of the caliper to the skinfold (dynamic compressibility). In addition to this compressibility, there is also a variability of skinfold compressibility at different body sites (static compressibility). To investigate this static variability, a…

The reaction of tetramethyltetrathiafulvalene (TMTTF, 7) with 2-dicyanomethyleneindane-1,3-dione (DCID, 1) leads to isomerisation of DCID to 2,3-dicyanonaphthoquinone (DCNQ, 3) to yield the charge-transfer complex [(TMTTF)3]2˙+–(DCNQ˙–)28. The X-ray crystal structure of complexe 8 reveals stacks of TMTTF molecules alo…

Microstructure of the Zn-bonded Sm2Fe17N3 permanent magnet having high magnetic coercivity of 11.8 kOe was studied by transmission and analytical electron microscopy. Three phases, α-Fe including 20 to 30 at%Zn, Fe3Zn7, and Sm2(Fe, Zn)17Nx, were found in addition to the matrix Sm2Fe17N3 phase. The Sm2(Fe, Zn)17Nx phas…

Abstract The dielectric constant, loss tangent and AC conductivity of solution grown cellulose acetate‐butyrate films of 5μm thickness were studied as a function of temperature (300‐450 K) in the frequency range 10 Hz‐10 MHz. The decrease in dielectric constant was observed with the increase in frequency as well as wi…

Abstract Single crystals of beta barium borate and potassium pentaborate (commonly known as β‐BaB 2 O 4 or BBO and KB 5 O 8 . 4 H 2 O or KB5) were grown by high and low temperature solution growth methods, respectively. The dielectric constant and loss tangent were determined as a function of temperature. Frequency re…

Production ball grinding and polishing apparatus were employed as tribometers. The volumetric wear rates of near-net-shape silicon nitride (Si3N4) ceramic ball blanks and the sphericity of the final-polished bearing balls were used to examine the premises that only homogeneous Si3N4 with isotropic structural integrity…
