The adsorption of styrene on (111)-oriented thin layers of FeO and Fe 3 O 4 epitaxially grown on Pt(111) single-crystal surfaces has been investigated using near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). High-resolution gas-phase measurements were recorded,…
Solution blending of polystyrene (PS) and natural rubber (NR) was carried out in toluene and chloroform to determine the compatibility. Experimental evidence for the compatibility of these blends was derived from viscometric and phase-separation studies. The viscometric method was based on the intrinsic viscosities of…
A photon-transmission method was used to probe the evolution of transparency during film formation from polystyrene (PS) particles with different molecular weights. The latex films were formed at room temperature from the PS particles having two different average molecular weights and annealed at elevated temperatures…
Polyamide (PA)1010 is blended with a saturated polyolefin elastomer, ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (EOCP). To improve the compatibility of PA1010 with EOCP, different grafting rates of EOCP with maleic anhydride (MA) are used. The reaction between PA1010 and EOCP-g-MA during extrusion is verified through an extraction t…
Polyamide 6 (PA 6)/clay hybrid (NCH) nanocomposites containing 2 and 5 wt% of clay were melt spun at take-up velocities from 1 to 5 km/min, and the effect of clay on the fiber structure formation was investigated. As the reference, neat PA 6 was spun at take-up velocities from 1 to 7 km/min. The NCH fibers showed high…
New organic–inorganic hybrids SiGCX (X = 1 to 3) were prepared from the biopolymer chitosan with a degree of the deacetylation of 86% and three distinct silylating agents of the type (CH3O)3SiRNH2 [R = (CH2)3, (CH2)3NH(CH2)2 and (CH2)3NH(CH2)2NH(CH2)2]. Both chitosan and silylating agents have the amine groups…
A sample of commercial semicrystalline polyethylene (PE), characterized by a M w of 300,000 and an estimated crystallinity of 73%, was structurally characterized through constant wavelength (CW) X-ray powder diffraction and the Rietveld method. The space group is Pnam; the cell parameters are a = 7.4241(7) Å; b = 4.94…
Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) patterns are used to identify features of semicrystalline polymers composed of alternating lamellar crystals and amorphous regions. Provided that lamellae are wide and flat, the structure is a one-dimensional stack with an average period L established by distributions of crystal thi…
The use of titanium diboride to protect the cathodes of aluminum electrolysis cells G
A series of high molecular weight hyperbranched poly(ether imide)s (HBPEI), derived from the AB 2 monomer N -[3,5-di( tert -butyldimethylsilyloxy)phenyl]-4-fluorophthalimide ( 1 ), were synthesized in a single-step process involving a rapid fluoride-catalyzed arylation reaction. NMR analysis of the degree of branching…
The synthesis and characterization of coil−rod−coil molecules of 4,4‘-bis[4-methyloxypoly(propyleneoxy)propyloxy-4‘-biphenyloxymethyl]biphenyl with a poly(propylene oxide) coil of 3 ( 7 ), 6 ( 8 ), 9 ( 9 ), 13 ( 10 ), 17 ( 11 ), and 22 ( 12 ) propylene oxide units are described. These molecules self-assemble into orde…
A comparison of calculated and measured glass transition temperatures of a series of three-component hydrocarbon blends was performed. The blends were prepared as mixtures of an elastomer with different proportions of tackifying resin and oil. Glass transition temperature, Tg, was measured by differential scanning cal…
Phase separation mechanisms during the membrane formation by dry-cast process were investigated by light scattering in the cellulose acetate/dimethylformamide (DMF)/2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol system. Phase separation occurred by spinodal decomposition (SD) when paths of the composition changes due to the evaporation of…
Aldehyde dehydrogenase from the bioluminescent bacterium, Vibrio harveyi, catalyses the oxidation of long-chain aliphatic aldehydes to acids. The enzyme is unique compared with other forms of aldehyde dehydrogenase in that it exhibits a very high specificity and affinity for the cofactor NADP(+). Structural studies of…
Silicon carbide (SiC) porous substrates are prepared by pressureless sintering of SiC powders under an inert atmosphere of argon. The porous SiC substrates were characterized by measuring their porosity, pore size distribution, surface characteristics, and structure. Their transport characteristics were investigated u…
Crosslinked styrene–acrylate copolymers were synthesized and evaluated by swelling properties for oil-absorbency application. The effect of various polymerization conditions (crosslinking agent concentration, initiator concentration, monomer concentration, and polymerization temperature) were studied through oil-absor…
We here study electronic structure and magnetic properties of bcc Co$_{x}$Fe$_{1-x}$, Cr$_{x}$Fe$_{1-x}$ and Mn$_{x}$Fe$_{1-x}$ in their ferromagnetic phases using Augmented Space Recursion technique coupled with tight-binding linearized muffin tin orbital (TB-LMTO) method. We make a systematic study of magnetic prope…
We have prepared a novel series of banana-shaped molecules with a central bent core based on a 2,7-dihydroxynaphthalene group, the side wings containing a Schiff's based moiety, and alkoxy flexible tails with carbon numbers n = 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16. Among these, the molecules with n = 8−16 formed a novel smectic p…
Control of nonspecific protein adsorption is very important for the design of biocompatible and biomimetic materials as well as drug carriers. Grafted polymer layers can be used to prevent protein adsorption. We have studied the molecular factors that determine the equilibrium and kinetic control of protein adsorption…
Transparent superhydrophobic thin films with TiO 2 photocatalyst were prepared by utilizing a sublimation material and subsequent coating of a (fluoroalkyl)silane. The transparency of the films decreased with increasing TiO 2 concentration, which was attributed to the size difference of the starting materials. The fil…
