Composites consisting of icosahedral (i) phase and ductile α-Mg can be fabricated by controlling the alloy composition. With increasing Mg content, the primary solidification phase changed from the i phase to the α-Mg phase and single eutectic structure can be obtained at a composition of Mg72Zn23.5Y3.5. The i phase s…

Abstract An all‐solid actuator, consisting of a polyaniline (PANI) film and a solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) of poly(ethylene oxide) derivative (STO288), clearly showed a reversible displacement in an atmosphere when a voltage was applied between the PANI film and the SPE layer. The displacement and the response rate…

At neutral-grounded substations, ferroresonance may happen upon switching a circuit breaker or disconnector, due to the saturated magnetizing characteristics of the bus PT. In this paper, a systematical method is presented to analyze and suppress the phenomenon. The scheme for suppressing the ferroresonance is to inse…

We have fabricated a light-emitting diode on a Si(100) p+ substrate operating at room temperature close to 1.6 μm. The growth of the structure was performed by molecular beam epitaxy. The active zone of the p–i–n diode consists of 20 layers of Ge/Si self-assembled quantum dots. The growth parameters of the active zone…

Abstract Two series of segmented polyurethanes were prepared with systematic variation in soft and hard segment length. The soft segment was constituted by polycaprolactone (PCL) blocks of molecular masses 530 or 2000 and the hard segment (HS) by urethane blocks, in a concentration that varied from 12% to 44% in weigh…

Mixing a smectite clay with some dendritic surfactants shows that despite the large size of some of these molecules, a property that frustrates complete intercalation into the gallery of the clay, organoclay materials are obtained. X-ray powder diffraction (XPD) reveals no significant increases in lattice spacing as t…

Ammonium polyphosphate (APP) shows fire retardant activity in poly(butylene terephthalate (PBT), as the LOI values increase and the UL94 rating improves. TG, FT-IR and GC/MS data provide evidence that APP interacts with PBT. Addition of APP changes the composition of the solid, high and low boiling decomposition produ…
