In this article, we report on the influence of reactive compatibilization on the morphological and rheological properties of blends of polyamide 6 (PA 6) and a styrene−acrylonitrile copolymer (SAN). PA 6/SAN blends with two different composition ratios (70/30 and 30/70) and varying concentration of a styrene acrylonit…

The temperature-dependent electronic states of FeSi have been studied by using high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and using low-energy tunable photons. At low temperatures, a peak indicating the valence-band maximum (VBM) exists at a binding energy of $\ensuremath{\sim}20\text{ }\text{me…

We present an extensive study of the structural, magnetic, and thermodynamic properties of the oxyborate ${\text{Co}}_{3}{\text{O}}_{2}{\text{BO}}_{3}$. This is carried out through x-ray diffraction, static and dynamic magnetic susceptibilities, and specific heat experiments in single crystals in a large temperature r…

In this paper, we introduce a calculation method for in-plane eddy currents produced by perpendicular flux at stator core-ends of turbine generators. In the method, the laminated core is subdivided into each electrical steel sheet by 3-D finite elements. The insulated layers of the sheets are modeled by the gap elemen…

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) provide compact and effective actuation for a variety of mechanical systems. Automotive applications of these materials, although very attractive, have not been fully explored. The lack of activities in this area is partly due to the complex thermomechanical behavior of these materials. In t…

Segment block dendrimers consisting of polyester and polyaryl ether dendrons were synthesized using reagent free Diels-Alder cycloaddition reactions. Three generations of furan functionalized polyaryl ether dendrons were reacted with maleimide functionalized polyester dendrons of the same generation to obtain segment…

The course of oxidation of 4-aminodiphenylamine with ammonium peroxydisulfate in an acidic aqueous ethanol solution as well as the properties of the oxidation products were compared with those of 2-aminodiphenylamine. Semiconducting oligomers of 4-aminodiphenylamine and nonconducting oligomers of 2-aminodiphenylamine…

Heat conduction in submicron crystalline materials can be well modeled by the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE). The Monte Carlo method is effective in computing the solution of the BTE. These past years, transient Monte Carlo simulations have been developed, but they are generally memory demanding. This paper presen…

Abstract Discotic liquid‐crystalline (LC) physical gels have been prepared by combining the self‐assembled fibers of a low‐molecular‐weight gelator and semiconducting LC triphenylene derivatives. The hole mobilities of the discotic LC physical gels measured by a time‐of‐flight method become higher than those of LC tri…

We present results from high-resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS) and XPS studies of self-assembled monolayers of DNA. The monolayers are well-organized and display sharp vibrational peaks in the HREEL spectra. The electrons interact mainly with the backbone of the DNA. The XPS results indicate that,…

Models for the prediction of corrosion often give the misleading impression that corrosion of steel in seawater environments is a linear function of time (the “corrosion rate”). More recently non-linear functions for corrosion loss have been proposed calibrated to aggregated data from a wide variety of sources. Unfort…

Abstract In this study, an easy and efficient synthesis of unsaturated plant oil triglycerides having isocyanate groups is reported. In the first step of the synthesis, the triglyceride was brominated at the allylic positions by a reaction with N ‐bromosuccinimide, and in the second step, these brominated species were…

In this paper, parameters of the Jiles–Atherton (J-A) hysteresis model are identified using a stochastic search algorithm called differential evolution (DE). The J-A hysteresis model's parameters are identified by DE in such a way, that best possible agreement is obtained between the measured and model calculated hyst…
