Abstract The shell thickness of a core/shell impact modifier is found to be the single most important factor in the toughening of rigid polyvinyl chloride (PVC). When the shell thickness is greater than a critical value of 15.8 nm, these core‐shell elastomeric particles are able to remain structurally intact and well…

This paper presents a new numerical scheme for simulating multidimensional transient and steady-state microscale energy transport. The new method is based on the method of characteristics that follows heat carriers along their pathline. Unlike traditional methods, it uses a fixed computational grid and follows the hea…

An achromatic infrared (lambda = 1.2-4 microm), Si-prism quarter-wave retarder (QWR) is described that uses total internal reflection at a buried Si-SiO2 interface at an angle of incidence phi near 33 degrees, where deltaDelta/deltaphi = 0. The retardance delta deviates from 90 degrees by < +/- 2 degrees within a fiel…

Apatites from several pegmatites and two alkaline igneous environments were analyzed by electron microprobe and by micro-FTIR spectroscopy in the region 3000.4000 cm -1 . Hydrogen bonding between OH and adjacent halogens shifts the OH-stretching modes and proves sensitive to the ordering of anions and cations within t…

Abstract The application of supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO 2 ) has been attracting more and more attention, especially in the formation of polymer membranes. The membrane formation using SCCO 2 is analogous to conventional immersion precipitation process by using organic nonsolvent. Polylactide (PLA) membranes wer…

The Abraham solvation parameter model is used to calculate the numerical values of the solute descriptors for naproxen from experimental solubilities in organic solvents. The solute descriptors are denoted as follows: E is the solute excess molar refraction, V is McGowan volume of the solute, A and B are measures of t…

The study was designed to investigate the effects of temperature and phosphorus limitation on polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production and storage by activated sludge biomass. The two-stage operation approach, i.e. a growth phase followed by a nutrient limitation phase, was applied to induce PHA accumulation. The pre-sel…

Abstract Several perovskite‐type nanosized oxides were prepared via polyol‐mediated synthesis. The crystallinity of the materials was analysed by X‐ray diffraction (XRD). While the “as synthesized” materials are amorphous or show very poor crystallinity, highly ordered materials could be obtained by annealing at 700 °…

To model the thermal conductivity of polymer composites that are filled with ceramic powders, the conductivity of each component as well as the interfacial resistance at each ceramic–polymer boundary must be known. An indirect method to determine this interfacial boundary resistance is proposed by preparing large‐scal…
