Molecular dynamics simulations are performed at 6543 and 3310 K to investigate how the viscosity and self-diffusion coefficient scale with system size in the liquid BKS silica system. We find that at high temperature the finite-size effect on shear viscosity is negligible. However, the size effect on the diffusion coe…

Abstract Summary: Cyclodi(ethylene succinate) (C2) easily reacts with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) in the melt leading to the formation of high molar mass PET‐Poly(ethylene succinate) copolymers (PET‐PES). Copolyesters with a PET/C2 starting mass ratio of 90/10, 80/20, 70/30 and 50/50 were synthesized and charac…

Using a first-principles method, we study field emission properties of double-wall carbon nanotubes with various end geometries and combinations of inner and outer walls. The open double-wall nanotubes exhibit substantial contribution to the emission current from the extended π states. These states are insensitive to…

Abstract Random and block copolymerizations of L ‐ or D ‐lactide with ε‐caprolactone (CL) were performed with a novel anionic initiator, (C 5 Me 5 ) 2 SmMe(THF), and they resulted in partial epimerization, generating D , L ‐ or meso ‐lactide polymers with enhanced biodegradability. A blend of PLLA‐ r ‐PCL [82/18; PLLA…

We report a metastable bcc phase that intervenes between a disordered micellar suspension and an fcc crystal in a block copolymer solution. Upon heating, the metastable bcc phase nucleates first, and then transforms over the course of hours to the stable fcc phase. At still higher temperatures, the fcc phase transform…

Polyaniline (PANI) composite microwires containing CdS nanoparticles were synthesized guided by poly(acrylic acid) (PAA). It was found that the morphology of the composite microwires was affected by the concentration of PAA. When the concentration of PAA was lower than 0.1 mg ml −1 , the PANI/CdS composite was wires.…

To improve the performance of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBHHx), gelatin was blended with PHBHHx at different ratios. With increasing gelatin content, the weight loss of gelatin/PHBHHx blend in simulated body fluid at 37 degrees C was accelerated. After 2 months, there was about 15% weight loss in…
