Abstract Segmental relaxation in a series of polymethylphenylsiloxanes (PMPS) was studied using dielectric spectroscopy. The measurements covered a temperature range of more than 40 deg at pressures from ambient to 115 MPa. The results confirmed that the shape of the loss peak is independent of temperature, pressure a…

We have studied cell gap-dependent driving voltage characteristics in a homogeneously aligned nematic liquid crystal (LC) cell driven by a fringe electric field, termed the fringe field switching (FFS) mode. The results show that for the FFS mode using a LC with positive dielectric anisotropy, the operating voltage de…

Twenty impact diamond samples from the Popigai, Ries, and Lappajärvi astroblemes were analysed using cathodoluminescence (CL) at room temperature (RT). Five of the samples were further investigated at liquid nitrogen temperature (LNT). Cathodoluminescence images allowed for the discrimination of diamond from graphite,…

Abstract The effect of Mg 2+ ions on the gel formation in fresh and commercial high ammonia natural rubber latices (FL-latex and commercial HA-latex) was analyzed from the gel content and 2+ content after treatment with (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 . The gel content of rubber from commercial HA-latex decreased significantly after (…

Abstract Although bifunctional organosilanes, particularly bis-(triethoxy-silyl-propyl) tetrasulfide (TESPT), are very efficient silica-rubber coupling agents, a high level is required to realize an optimum balance of processing as well as other performance characteristics. As to the functionality of TESPT in silica s…

Kinetic modeling of the catalytic oxidation of trichloroethylene (TCE) over a palladium supported on alumina was evaluated. On the basis of previous studies on the effect of temperature, inlet TCE and oxygen concentrations, and the space velocity on the reaction rate, a five-step reaction network scheme, based on an E…

35 Cl NMR spectra were measured using the highest-temperature solid phase of n-C x H (2x+1) NH 3 Cl and n-C x H (2x+1) ND 3 Cl (x=5−10). The observed quadrupole coupling constants (e 2 Qqh −1 ) decreased upon heating in this phase, and significant frequency differences of ca. 20 − 30 kHz were detected between the -NH…

Plastic strain localization in single crystals of pure metals and alloys is studied on the yield plateau and at the easy glide stage with a zero or small strain hardening coefficient. The difference between localization patterns in the two cases is explained, and strain localization mechanisms are suggested. At these…

A simplified three-dimensional structural model for a series of nonwoven fabrics is presented. The corresponding directional permeabilities of the fabrics are calculated based on the measured two-dimensional fiber orientation distribution. The influences of fiber diameter, fabric porosity, and fiber orientation distri…

The present work studies the effect of niobium addition on the mechanical properties and microstructure of an as-cast 4·3%Ni alloyed ductile iron. The experimental iron was made from high purity raw materials in a laboratory induction furnace. Eight castings were produced with niobium content in the range 0–0·8%. Sili…

Samples of double rare-earth ferrite La1 xNdxFeO3 are synthesized by a high-temperature double sintering ceramic technique. X-ray diraction shows that all compounds have an orthorhombic structure. The values of lattice parameter and the volume of the unit cell, changes with increasing Nd 3+ content. The Goldschmidt to…

ABSTRACT Films for potential food use were prepared from aqueous solutions of β‐glucan extracted from hulled barley, hull‐less barley, and oats. The extracts (75.2–79.3% β‐glucan) also contained proteins, fat, and ash. Glycerol was used as a plasticizer. The films were translucent, smooth, and homogeneous in structure…

High density closed-cell HDPE foams (450–950 kg/m3) were prepared by compression molding, and torsion rectangular tests were performed to measure their shear modulus in order to study: (1) the relationship between the modulus as a function of the density, and (2) to determine the effect of thin skins. Based on the ass…

Silicon compounds containing R3SiO1/2 (M-unit), R2SiO (D-unit), RSiO3/2 (T-unit), and SiO2 (Q-unit) in various combinations are commonly used as flame-retardant auxiliaries for polycarbonate (PC) plastics, and the use of branched DT-type silicones as the main flame retardant has also gained interest. We have found, ba…
