Abstract Lattice parameters of synthetic titanite powder, CaTiOSiO 4 , have been determined between room temperature and 1023 K. Only the e 11 and e 13 components contribute significantly to the strain tensor associated with the antiferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition at T c = 487 K. A finite strain component…

Manganese complexes of 5,15-diaryl-β-substituted-porphyrins were prepared and their behaviour as oxidation catalysts was studied. The role of the pyrrolic and meso-substituents on the activity and selectivity of these catalysts was studied to reveal new structure–activity relationships in these porphyrin-based epoxida…

Abstract The physicochemical properties of clays can be modified by acid treatment with inorganic acids. This treatment is usually referred to as ‘acid activation’, because it increases the specific surface area and the number of active sites of the solids. In the present study, the acid activation of saponite from Ce…

Zirconia coatings were produced by reactive dc magnetron sputter deposition, using a system with multiple sputter sources and a biased substrate stage. Tetragonal zirconia with either a random orientation or a highly (111) preferred orientation was formed by applying a substrate bias. Coating grown with no substrate b…

(La,Sr)MnO 3 (LSMO) thin films were fabricated on (100)SrTiO 3 single crystal substrates by the chemical solution deposition (CSD) process and their properties were evaluated at room temperature. All the films sintered at the temperatures ranging from 600 to 900°C were crystallized into perovskite single-phase LSMO wi…

Summary We have examined the way that the metallic ion Cr(III) is held by Na‐montmorillonite and alumina pillared clay. We used several physico‐chemical methods of analysis (X‐ray powder diffraction, infrared absorption spectrometry, thermal analysis and chemical composition) to determine the structural formula of the…

Abstract Ethyl cinnamate/montmorillonite intercalation complexes were obtained by gaseous adsorption of the drug on the clay surface. They were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, differential thermal and thermogravimetric analyses and by visible-UV and IR spectroscopies. It was found that after 1 day of adsorp…

Abstract Described are the physical and chemical properties of the methyl esters of two uncommon fatty acids: vernolic acid, containing an epoxy group, and crepenynic acid, containing a triple bond. The incorporation of an epoxy or alkyne group into the fatty acid structure is shown to greatly affect the properties co…

The interaction of electrons with acoustic phonons is considered in a nanotube with chiral symmetry placed in a magnetic field parallel to the nanotube axis. It is shown that in such a system, the electronic energy spectrum is not invariant under electron wavevector reversal and, therefore, the electron-phonon interac…
