The alkali-resistant glass fibers (ARG) are coated with special sizings to provide superior alkali resistance and are designed to reinforce cementitious and other alkali matrixes. The assessment of changes in the fiber surface nanomechanical properties is essential for understanding the fiber bulk mechanical fracture…
Abstract By the use of atomic force microscopy (AFM), formation mechanism of nodular structure in cellulose acetate membranes was systematically investigated. Elementary factors affecting the nodule formation were delineated on the basis of both kinetic and thermodynamic considerations. It was shown that (1) the exact…
Abstract 1 H, 13 C [ 1 H]‐, and 2D HETCOR NMR spectroscopy have been employed to characterize polyacrylonitrile (PAN) homopolymer and copolymers of methacrylic acid (MAA) and itaconic acid (IA) prepared by solvent–water suspension polymerization technique in a mixture containing DMF (solvent) and water. The chemical c…
Abstract The Leeds die‐drawing process has been used to make oriented sheets of toughened polypropylenes. Die‐drawn oriented sheets were produced by drawing at 110°C to draw ratios of 4, 6, and 10. Comparative measurements have been undertaken of the plane stress fracture toughness at room temperature using the essent…
Abstract Nylon 10 12, a newly industrialized engineering plastic, shows a double‐melting phenomenon during melting. Partial melts were obtained when the sample was heated to the temperature between the two melting peaks. A differential scanning calorimeter was used to monitor the energies of the isothermal and nonisot…
A structural characterization of copolymers of syndiotactic polypropylene containing ethylene comonomeric units (PPET) in a wide range of concentrations (0.4−60 mol %) is presented. The copolymer samples are crystalline up to an ethylene content of 18−20 mol %. Ethylene units are partially included in the crystals of…
Sequential amide formation between poly(vinylamine- co - N -vinylformamide)s [poly(VAm- co -NVF)s] with VAm contents of 20, 28, and 42 mol % plus polyAAc using a water-soluble carbodiimide was studied to prepare ultrathin hydrogels on a solid substrate. The analysis of assembly amounts at each assembly step using a qu…
A new Schiff-base macrocycle is obtained by the lead(II) ion templated [2+2] condensation of 3,5-diacetyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole and 1,4-diaminobutane in the presence of sodium hydroxide. Transmetallation of the resulting dilead complex, Pb2(L2)(ClO4)21, in acetonitrile with two equivalents of CoCl2·6H2O leads to the isola…
Abstract To improve the mechanical and water vapor barrier properties of soy protein films, the transparent films were prepared by blending 5 wt % soy protein isolate (SPI) alkaline water solution with 2 wt % carboxymethylated konjac glucomannan (CMKGM) aqueous solution and drying at 30 °C. The structure and propertie…
We have performed x-ray, electrical resistivity, and Raman scattering measurements in ${\mathrm{La}}_{0.70}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{0.30}{\mathrm{Mn}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Fe}}_{x}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ manganites, with x varying from 0 to 0.40. The appearance of new peaks in the Raman spectra as the Fe content increases is at…
Novel far-infrared (FIR) absorption spectroscopy in conjunction with multiple, fixed external magnetic fields (FIR magnetic spectroscopy, FIRMS) has been used to investigate pseudotetrahedral complexes with the formula M(PPh(3))(2)Cl(2) (M = Ni, Zn; Ph = C(6)H(5)). Crystal structures have been reported for the Ni comp…
Dynamics of low molecular weight and polymeric glass forming liquids in confined geometries has been studied by means of depolarized dynamic light scattering: photon correlation spectroscopy and Fabry-Perot interferometry. The pore size of the glassy matrix amounted to 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 nm. The glass transition temper…
A mild sonochemical route was used to prepare Bi2Te3 nanocrystals, and Bi2Se2Te and Bi2SeTe2 ternary nano-alloys in aqueous solution; an interfacial mechanism for this sonochemical reaction is discussed. The basic thermoelectric properties (Seebeck coefficient) of the as-prepared nanocrystals were studied, and this si…
We report here the capping of cadmium sulfide nanoparticles (Q-CdS) with a Cd−DMSO complex as a consequence of particle preparation in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). A characteristic sharp peak at 367 nm in the UV−vis for Q-CdS showed a gradual blue shift of ca. 41 nm, indicating the decrease in the particle size with tim…
We present a new quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) embedding approach for systems with directional polar covalent bonds. This “covalent elastic polarizable environment” (covEPE) scheme features a variational treatment of an energy expression that includes all degrees of freedom of both the QM region (the “…
The time evolution of evanescent modes in Pendry's perfect lens proposal for ideally lossless and homogeneous, left-handed materials is analyzed. We show that time development of subwavelength resolution exhibits universal features, independent of model details. This is due to the unavoidable near degeneracy of surfac…
The potential use of the α-particle emitting compounds 212/213Bi–DOTMP and 212Pb–DOTMP in therapy of bone-associated cancers, and medical interest in bismuth compounds, motivated this study. Syntheses of the Bi(III) and Pb(II) complexes of 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetramethylene phosphonic acid (H8DOTMP…
Abstract Highly oriented monofilaments were produced by a high‐temperature die‐drawing process followed by tensile drawing. It was shown that a successful high‐speed process required high‐quality melt‐extruded rod. The mechanical properties and structure of the die‐drawn products were investigated by means of tensile…
Abstract Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) films filled with different amounts of CrF 3 and MnCl 2 were prepared by the casting method. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis were used to study the changes in the structure properties that occurred because of filling. The changes occurring…
Lactose permease with Cys154 --> Gly (helix V) binds substrate with high affinity but catalyzes little or no transport. The purified, detergent-solubilized mutant protein exhibits much greater thermal stability than the wild type and little tendency to aggregate. Stabilization is also observed in vivo with an unstable…
