Multiwalled carbon nanotube–supported Rh nanoparticles prepared by a simple sonochemical method are highly active for catalytic hydrogenation of dibenzo-18-crown-6 to dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6. The catalytic hydrogenation reaction shows a selectivity favoring the cis-syn-cis isomer over cis-anti-cis isomer of the produc…

The introduction of an un-doped silicon layer (spacer) enhances significantly the thermoelectric power factor in modulation-doped Si(Al)-MnSi 1.7 -Si(Al) sandwich structure. This un-doped silicon layer is inserted between the MnSi 1.7 (HMS) and Al -doped silicon layers. With a proper spacer thickness, the electrical r…

Abstract Processing of polymers depends on corrosion‐ and wear resistant tool materials being in direct contact with the feedstock material. Plastic mold steels, a special group of tool steels, are successfully applied here, offering both a good wear and corrosion resistance. The lifetime of tools used for plastic pro…

Single crystals of tribarium diyttrium hexaborate, which crystallized in the cubic system, have been obtained by spontaneous crystallization from a high-temperature melt using Li(2)O-BaO-B(2)O(3) as flux. Its structure is composed of isolated [B(2)O(5)](4-) groups, irregular BaO(9) polyhedra and regular YO(6) polyhedr…

Two different kinds of uniplanar–axial orientations, exhibiting the polymer chain axis parallel to the main draw direction ( c ax )and the ac plane parallel or perpendicular with respect to the film plane ( a ∥ c ax and a ⊥ c ax, respectively) have been achieved for several cocrystalline s-PS phases. The preparation p…

Abstract A novel linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE)/polypropylene (PP) thermostimulative shape memory blends were prepared by melt blending with moderate crosslinked LLDPE/PP blend (LLDPE–PP) as compatibilizer. In this shape memory polymer (SMP) blends, dispersed PP acted as fixed phase whereas continuous LLDPE p…

Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) seeds are grown using Fe-Co nanoparticles on spin-on-glass. The relative efficiency of nucleation and amplification (versus etching) was investigated as a function of the CH(4)/H(2) feedstock ratio and growth temperature. At 900 °C, maximum amplification is obtained with CH(4)/H(…

SUMMARY Exfoliated graphite nanoplatelets (xGnPs) were used to improve the flame resistant performance of glass fiber‐reinforced polyester composites. Along with xGnP, traditional intumescent fire retardant ammonium polyphosphate (APP) was introduced into the polymer matrix as the dominant additive to reduce the heat…
