Structure property relationships have been established at two different scales to examine reinforcing effects of nanocomposites made of cellulose whiskers and polyethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) matrixes with different vinyl acetate contents. The role of the polymer structure on the work of adhesion as predicted by molec…
Abstract When polymer blends are foamed by physical foaming agents, such as CO 2 or N 2 , not only the morphology and viscosity of the blend polymers but also the solubility and diffusivity of the physical foaming agents in the polymers determine the cellular structure: closed cell or open cell and monomodal or bimoda…
Determinations of the phase formation sequence, crystal structures and the thermo-physical properties of materials at high temperatures are hampered by contamination from the sample container and environment. Containerless processing techniques, such as electrostatic (ESL), electromagnetic, aerodynamic, and acoustic l…
Abstract Novel nanocomposites of polyaniline dispersed with γ‐Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles were prepared by the in situ polymerization of aniline in the presence of ammonium peroxysulfate as an oxidizing agent. Dielectric constants of the derived composites varied with the composition of γ‐Fe 2 O 3 present in the matrix. A…
Abstract A new type of polyester polyol, with alkyl side groups, viz. poly(2,4‐diethyl‐1,5‐pentamethylene adipate) glycol (PDPAd) was synthesized and used to improve the hydrolytic stability of waterborne polyurethanes (PU). The results compared favorably with poly(tetramethylene adipate) glycol (PTAd)–based PU and bl…
A systematic study was conducted on the fabrication, structural characterization, and transport properties of Zn nanowires with diameters between 40 and 100 nm. Zinc nanowires were fabricated by electrodepositing Zn into commercially available polycarbonate (PC) or anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) membranes. By controlling…
We examine each of the symmetry-allowed pairing states of NaxCoO2.yH2O and compare their properties to what is experimentally and theoretically established about the compound. In this way, we can eliminate the vast majority of states that are technically allowed and narrow the field to two, both of f-wave type states.…
In this work, we use the solution precipitation method to synthesize Tb3+-doped yttrium orthophosphate, which is a green-emission luminescent material. The evolution of hydrated yttrium orthophosphate (YPO4.2H2O) to dehydrated yttrium orthophosphate (YPO4) is observed in the heat-treatment process, simultaneously, acc…
A nanoporous zinc gallophosphate framework, NTHU-4, possessing 14-ring channels, disordered rims, and two luminant analogues, NTHU-4Y and NTHU-4W, has been synthesized and characterized; NTHU-4Y is an intrinsic yellow phosphor, while NTHU-4W is a white phosphor. The unique tetrahedral framework can be excited by wavel…
In the iron(II) low-spin complex [Fe(bpy)3]2+, the zero-point energy difference between the 5T2g(t4(2g)e2g) high-spin and the 1A(1g)(t(6)2g) low-spin states, Delta(E)0HL, is estimated to lie in the range of 2500-5000 cm(-1). This estimate is based on the low-temperature dynamics of the high-spin-->low-spin relaxation…
We present a scaling theory of magnetotransport in Anderson-localized disordered ferromagnets. Within our framework a pronounced magnetic-field-sensitive resistance peak emerges naturally for temperatures near the magnetic phase transition. We find that the resistance anomaly is a direct consequence of the change in l…
The bismuth-based perovskite solid solution (100−x)BiScO3−xPbTiO3 (BSPT) was investigated for use at temperatures up to 400°C and above. The high-temperature resistivity, together with dielectric and piezoelectric behaviors of the shear mode for manganese-modified BSPT ceramics near the morphotropic phase boundary com…
A simple vapour deposition technique was used to prepare WO3 one-dimensional nanostructures.WO3 is sublimated at a relatively low temperature (550 1C) in air at atmospheric pressure.The sublimated species are condensed on mica substrate at 500 1C.Single crystalline nanorods are grown in epitaxy on the mica surface wit…
This paper is concerned with the quasi-static rheology of packings of glass spheres of diameter d (d=0.2mm, 0.7mm or 3mm). Stick-slip behaviour is observed on small spheres, i.e d=0.2mm & 0.7mm ; one observes also in this case a weakening of the rheology as the rate of deformation increases, and the larger the rate th…
A series of manganese−cerium oxide composites with Mn concentrations in the range of 1−20 mol % in ceria was prepared by the solution combustion technique using urea as fuel. The nature, type, and oxidation state of Mn species in ceria were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), diffuse reflectance UV−visible spectr…
The creation of an artificial superhydrophobic surface with micro- and nanostructures has been demonstrated using a block copolymer micelle solution and silica nanoparticles. The unique technique of a nanoparticle-supported micelle stabilization together with changes in the solvent power guarantees the precise morphol…
We studied the molecular mechanism of greater efficacy of paclitaxel-loaded nanoparticles (Tx-NPs) following conjugation to transferrin (Tf) ligand in breast cancer cell line. NPs were formulated using biodegradable polymer, poly(lactic-co-glycolide) (PLGA), with encapsulated Tx and conjugated to Tf ligand via an epox…
A series of Eu 2+ - and Mn 2+ -coactivated CaAl 2 Si 2 O 8 phosphors have been synthesized at 1400 °C under a reduced atmosphere and their luminescence properties have been investigated as a function of activator and coactivator concentrations. We have discovered that energy transfers from Eu 2+ to Mn 2+ by directly o…
The thermal parameters such as, glass transition temperature (T g ), crystalline melting point (T m ), initial thermal degradation temperature (T d,0 ), and coefficient of thermal expansion (E g ) of some halogenated polymers have been estimated employing two different relations such as the Van Krevelen method and the…
Many studies have been performed on aging of lead zirconate titanate (PZT), but a single model has not been universally accepted. An aim of this research was to determine whether harmonic analysis could distinguish among the models for the aging of PZTs. Doped and undoped PZT samples were prepared, and the aging behav…
