Fast field cycling (1)H NMR relaxometry is applied to determine the dispersion of spin-lattice relaxation time T(1)(omega) of the glass former glycerol in broad temperature (75-360 K) and frequency (10 kHz-30 MHz) ranges. The relaxation data are analyzed in terms of a susceptibility chi(")(omega) proportional, variant…

We report a comprehensive study of the electronic and magnetic properties of a star-shaped molecule comprising a MnII4O6 core. One feature of this compound is weak magnetic coupling constants compared to other similar polyoxo compounds. This leads to complicated low-lying magnetic states in which the ground state is n…

Abstract Combination of Ni 2 O 3 and solid acid with Brønsted acid sites and Lewis acid sites (such as HZSM‐5 and H‐beta) could dramatically improve fire retardancy of polyolefin, including polypropylene and linear low‐density polyethylene. This is mainly attributed to the formation of a large amount of residual char…
