The interband transition contributions to the optical properties of silver nanoparticles in fluoropolymer matrices are investigated. For the materials in this study, nanoparticle synthesis within the existing polymer matrix is accomplished using an infusion process that consists of diffusing an organometallic precurso…
This study focuses on efforts to characterize aging occurring in 15 kV distribution cables in a dry climate. It has been shown that similar changes can be produced by a suitably planned accelerated thermal aging testing in the laboratory. The Arrhenius equation is used for establishing the accelerated aging test param…
Cell extracts of Rhodobacter capsulatus grown on acetate contained an apparent malate synthase activity but lacked isocitrate lyase activity. Therefore, R. capsulatus cannot use the glyoxylate cycle for acetate assimilation, and a different pathway must exist. It is shown that the apparent malate synthase activity is…
The investigation of ECAP of IF steel as a representative of single phase bcc materials demonstrates a practical applicability of this technique for improving its mechanical properties. This paper reports the experimental results on microstructural evolution and the variation of the mechanical properties of IF steel a…
Here we systematically studied the excitation and the fluorescence steady-state spectroscopy of poly(2-methoxy-5(2'-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene) (MEH-PPV) with three molecular weights, Mn= 51 kg mol-1, Mn= 86 kg mol-1 and Mn= 125 kg mol-1, in two equally good solvents and several concentrations, from dilute s…
Abstract A variety of technologies is available for the decontamination and dismantling of nuclear facilities. All over the world, these technologies as well as conditioning processes of decommissioning waste are further developed. So far, they have been mainly applied to the dismantling of research and prototype faci…
An extensive X‐ray study of CeO 2 –Nd 2 O 3 solid solutions was performed, and the densities of solid solutions containing various concentrations of NdO 1.5 were measured using several techniques. Solid solutions containing 0–80 mol% NdO 1.5 were synthesized by coprecipitation from Ce(NO 3 ) 3 and Nd(NO 3 ) 3 aqueous…
Abstract A study was conducted to compare the two methods, Henriques Burn Integral and Stoll criteria, in thermal protective performance evaluation on firefighter clothing composites exposed to various thermal hazards. The thermal hazards that the firefighter may encounter during fire fighting are low level thermal ra…
The infrared spectra of xPbO (1-x-z)SiO 2 zP 2 O 5 glasses with a PbO:SiO 2 molar ratio of 3:2 and z=0,1,2,5,30,40 and 50 mol% have been examined in the region 4000-400 cm - 1 , together with XRD. The structure of PbO-SiO 2 binary glass is significantly different from that of P 2 O 5 substituted glasses. The low amoun…
In Picrophilus torridus, a euryarchaeon that grows optimally at 60 degrees C and pH 0.7 and thus represents the most acidophilic thermophile known, glucose oxidation is the first proposed step of glucose catabolism via a nonphosphorylated variant of the Entner-Doudoroff pathway, as deduced from the recently completed…
Microstructure and mechanical properties as well as thermal stability of commercially pure titanium VT1-0 subjected to severe plastic deformation by twist extrusion (TE) were studied before and after low-temperature annealing and cold rolling. TE leads to a refinement of structural fragments to sizes of less than 1 μm…
Optical switching effects of a guided-mode resonant grating (GMRG) with a Kerr medium have been simulated with the nonlinear finite differential time domain (FDTD) method. An asymmetric waveguide grating with a large second spatial harmonic component has been proposed for the optical switch. Resonant reflection occurs…
Abstract The novel europium complex acrylato(1,10‐phenanthroline)bis(2‐thenoyltrifluoroacetonato)europium( III ) [Eu(tta) 2 (aa)(phen)] [Eu‐AAPhen; Htta = 4,4,4‐trifluoro‐1‐(2‐thienyl)‐1,3‐butanedione, Haa = acrylic acid, phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline], which combines the excellent fluorescence properties of [Eu(tta) 3 (…
In an effort to understand the mechanisms of irradiation embrittlement of reactor pressure-vessel steels, hardening and microstructure evolution in a number of simple ferritic model alloys and complex bainitic steels irradiated with 3.2 MeV protons over a range of doses, dose rates and temperatures were characterized.…
Single crystals of hexagonal MnTe (in NiAs structure) have been grown by the physical vapour transport method and investigated by neutron scattering techniques. Lattice parameters and magnetic intensity of Bragg peaks characteristic of the antiferromagnetic order of the first kind have been measured by elastic neutron…
The optically active defects in as-grown, high-pressure high-temperature-treated (HPHT), borondoped, and synthetic diamonds (SD) grown with a nitrogen-getter, as well as of natural diamonds (ND), were characterized by absorption and luminescence spectroscopies using different excitation sources. The laser-excited phot…
The E. coli isozyme of gamma-aminobutyrate aminotransferase (GABA-AT) is a tetrameric pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes transamination between primary amines and alpha-keto acids. The roles of the active site residues V241, E211, and I50 in the GABA-AT mechanism have been probed by site-directed muta…
This article summarizes recent studies of electron irradiation damage in sodium borosilicate, iron phosphate and aluminophosphate glass waste forms using a modern analytical electron microscope. Three different borosilicate (wt%) (17.72% B2O3–16.67% Na2O–64.61% SiO2, 17.78% B2O3–15.83% Na2O–61.39% SiO2–4.99% Fe2O3 and…
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a single 1,350-mg dose of Panax notoginseng (PNG) could enhance aerobic capacity, endurance, and mean blood pressure (MAP) in young adults. We randomly assigned 29 untrained adults, aged 20-35 years, to an experimental (EXP, n = 13) or a control (CON, n = 16) group.…
The relation between pit morphology and microstructure formed during 850°C isothermal aging of UNS S31803 duplex stainless steel (DSS) could be reached through the explanation of pit nucleation and growth during potentiodynamic polarization in 3.5 wt% sodium chloride (NaCl) aqueous solution. Aging times up to 10 min a…
