A statistical model, the Ising model, is used to simulate liquid wetting of fibrous assemblies. The adhesive energy between fiber and liquid and the cohesive energy within the liquid are calculated by applying the Lifshitz theory under the assumption that the interactions between a fiber cell and a liquid cell and bet…

Conjugated rod molecules bearing flexible coil polymer moieties on both ends self-organize into 1D or 2D structures, and eventually into a 3D tetragonal superlattice (see Figure), depending on the number of monomeric units in the coils. The 3D ordered rods exhibit a highly extended fluorescence lifetime over the 1D or…

By using the fluorescence line-narrowing technique, we observed a broad fluorescence band in the vicinity of a resonant line of the D05→7F0 transition in an Eu3+-doped SiO2 glass synthesized by a sol-gel process. The comparison with a similar line in an Al2O3–SiO2:Eu3+ sol-gel glass revealed the existence of a chemica…

In this work, the dynamic mechanical behavior of jute fiber-reinforced epoxy foams was investigated. The influence of various fiber and microvoid content on shear modulus, frequency and log decrement was discussed. Experimental results showed that the 42 vol.% fiber content significantly enhances the shear modulus. Th…

Abstract A yellow sulfatotungstate complex was formed by heating a 50 mM W(VI)–2 M H2SO4–40% (v/v) CH3CN system at 70 °C for 14 days, being isolated as the tetrapropylammonium (n-Pr4N+) salt. An X-ray structural analysis (ortho-rhombic, Pca21 (No. 29) a = 27.181(1), b = 14.1428(6), c = 27.7292(9) Å, and Z = 4) reveale…

A new route to thermoreversible networks through gelling ferroelectric liquid crystals is presented. A reversible stabilization of one polar state can be achieved. On heating the gel, the network and therewith the polar orientation will be destroyed and on cooling a new polar orientation can be rebuilt. The Figure sho…
