Caustic nuclear wastes have leaked from tanks at the US Department of Energy’s Hanford site in Washington State (USA) causing hundreds of thousands of gallons of waste fluids to migrate into the underlying sediments. In this study, four simulant tank waste (STW) solutions, which are high in NaOH (1.4 and 2.8 mol/kg),…

Abstract Optical birefringence measurements for a calamitic lyotropic liquid crystal containing sodium lauryl sulphate/decanol/water are presented. A value of the order of 10 ‐3 was obtained, much smaller than that of thermotropic liquid crystals. The order parameter temperature dependence is evaluated using an extrap…

Drape is one of the most important fabric aesthetic properties. Although there are many studies related to the drape structure of seamless fabrics, knowledge about the drape behavior of seamed fabrics is very limited. This study analyzes the effect of five-thread overlock seams (stitch type 516, seam type Ssa-1) on th…

Abstract The effect of electron beam (EB) irradiation on the properties and compatibility of poly(ethylene 2,6‐naphthalate) (PEN)/poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) blends was investigated. Upon EB irradiation, PEN/PET blends underwent transesterification reactions, resulting in the formation of more random copolymers…

Abstract The spin states of microcrystalline samples of [Fe(OMTPP)L 2 ] + (L = DMAP or Py) have been examined and interpreted using Mössbauer spectroscopy, SQUID magnetometry and X‐ray crystallography. The Mössbauer spectra of [Fe(OMTPP)(DMAP) 2 ] + and [Fe(OMTPP)Py 2 ] + showed that both of these complexes maintain t…

Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots, QDs), such as CdSe-ZnS core-shell, are highly luminescent and stable inorganic fluorophores that represent a promising alternative to organic dyes for a variety of biotechnological applications. They show size-tunable narrow photoluminescence spectra spanning nearly…

Coupons of fourteen different stainless steels were investigated in terms of surface chemistry and ease of cleaning. Steel surfaces were exposed to Bacillus cereus spores in static saline solution for 2 h. Surfaces were rinsed and then covered with whole milk and allowed to dry. Surfaces were then cleaned in an experi…

Abstract Summary: Poly(propylene oxide)‐amidoacids were used to intercalate montmorillonite clay to afford organoclays with an X‐ray basal spacing as wide as 81 Å. Differing from the ionic exchange between quaternary ammonium salts and the metal ions in clays, the intercalation mechanism involves a beta‐amidoacid chel…

We studied the adhesion and proliferation of human umbilical-vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and human aortic smooth-muscle cells (HASMC) on modified polymer samples. The polymers under investigation were either PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) or PET [poly(ethylene terephthalate)], which are among the most frequently em…

Abstract Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy has been employed to investigate the adsorption and photo‐oxidation of CH 4 over powdered TiO 2 . The interaction between the CH 4 and TiO 2 surface is weak. It is found that no CH 4 molecules are adsorbed on the surface at 35 °C in a vacuum. Under UV irradiation, CH 4…

Although doped regions in semiconductors have been shown to give a different secondary electron yield in low-voltage scanning electron microscopy, the basic interpretation of this contrast has been difficult. It is accepted that this contrast stem from electronic phenomenon rather than atomic number differences betwee…
