We perform an analysis of the experimentally known temperature dependence of the staggered magnetization in the antiferromagnetic phase. This analysis allows us to put an upper limit on the unknown value of the spin-wave velocity along the stripes of equal spin direction (spin stripes). The velocity is about ten times…

This study examined the miscibility, mechanical and thermal properties of melt-mixed blends of PTT(poly(trimethylene terephthalate)) with PP(isotatic polypropylene). DMA and SEM results indicated that the PTT/PP blends are immiscible. Revealed from TGA analyses, the blends with a higher PP content showed a higher degr…

Diblock copolymers blended with homopolymer may self-assemble into spherical, cylindrical, or lamellar aggregates. Transitions between these structures may be driven by varying the homopolymer diblock molecular weight or composition. Using self-consistent field theory (SCFT), we reproduce these effects. Our results ar…
