Abstract Two polymer molecules of the same length ( n ) and the same number of branch points ( N ) can have different properties, since they may possess distinct architectures. In this paper we present a conditional Monte Carlo algorithm for the virtual synthesis of metallocene‐catalyzed polyethylene (PE) in a continu…

The mobility of individual triple junctions in aluminum is studied. Triple junctions with 〈111〉, 〈100〉, and 〈110〉 tilt boundaries are studied. The data obtained show that, at low temperatures, the mobility of the system of grain boundaries with a triple junction is controlled by the mobility of the triple junction (th…

This study investigates the objective hand evaluation of top sheet materials used for disposable diapers based on their mechanical and surface properties. Previous experience has shown that a system for men's suiting is also useful for other materials, so we have used this system to assess the hand of top sheet nonwov…

Abstract The individual and combined adsorption behavior of polyamides and two different silanes to multicomponent glass surfaces was probed with a combination of x‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and static contact angle measurements. Samples were analyzed with and without solvent…

Abstract Extruded parts of non‐sterilized and β‐irradiated (25 and 50 kGy) plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) used for disposable medical devices have been studied to investigate the effect of sterilization on surface chemical composition. The polymer surfaces were analysed using angle‐resolved x‐ray photoelectron…

Abstract A new thermoset material based on DGEBA with polyaminosiloxane curing agents is presented. The system shows reaction‐induced compatibilization which prevents coalescence of polysiloxane and DGEBA rich domains, leading to gradient structured morphologies. The influence of curing temperature and/or chemical nat…

Ferroelectrics with a spatial variation in the polarization exhibit behavior and properties that are not routinely observed from homogenous bulk or thin film ferroelectrics. A systematic spatial variation in the polarization in a ferroelectric material can be achieved by variations in the composition of the material,…

Abstract A new series of semi‐crystalline polyamides (PA), which comprise extended aliphatic segments between the amide moieties and which display an interesting amphiphilic character has been synthesized and characterized. The polymers PA‐2.34 , PA‐4.34 , PA‐8.34 , PA‐10.34 , and PA‐12.34 were prepared by melt‐polyco…

The influence of golf course operation and construction on benthic algal communities in headwater streams on the Precambrian Shield was investigated using a reference condition approach. Streams were sampled for water chemistry and epilithic benthic algae on operational golf courses, on courses under construction, and…

In the original description of fragility, Angell (1988 J. Phys. Chem. Solids 49 863) determined the degree of fragility from the curvature on an Arrhenius plot. This paper discusses a new measurement of the fragility value. The fragility of Al–Ni-based glass-forming melts, which is seldom reported in this field, can b…

The yarn architecture of 3-D braided composites products by the four-step 1 × 1 braiding technique has been studied by means of a control volume method in conjunction with experimental investigation and a numerical method, respectively. An ellipse assumption for the cross-section of yarn was proposed in this analysis…

Cavitation bubbles accompany explosive vaporization of water following pulsed energy deposition in liquid media. Bubbles collapsing at the tip of a surgical endoprobe produce a powerful and damaging water jet propagating forward in the axial direction of the probe. We studied interaction of such jet with tissue using…
