This paper presents torsional test results for six ductile metals subjected to large shear strains and high strain rates. Included are OFHC copper, Cartridge brass, Nickel 200, Armco IF iron, Carpenter electrical iron, and 1006 steel. Torsional shear strains as high as 700 percent are achieved and strain rates vary fr…
Abstract Three high molecular weight polycaprolactones (M̄ w = 35,000, 18,600, and 7,130) were utilized as the sole carbon source by five of six fungi tested by the American Standards for Testing and Materials (ASTM) agar plate method. The fungi were Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. fumigatus, Chaetomium globosum, Pen…
A very large amount of information is available in the open literature on the diffusion, or transport, of small molecules in polymers. A comprehensive discussion of this field would require an amount of space exceeding by far the confines of the present monograph. It is to be hoped that this herculean but extremely us…
The large meso-substituted porphine, meso-tetra(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphine has been identified as a DNA-interactive ligand with a capacity for intercalation (1,2). Subsequently, the 2-N-methyl, 3-N-methyl and N-trimethylanilinium analogues of this porphyrin intercalator have been obtained for physico-chemical analyses…

The subsolidus phase relations in the entire system ZrO 2 ‐Y 2 O 3 were established using DTA, expansion measurements, and room‐ and high‐temperature X‐ray diffraction. Three eutectoid reactions were found in the system: ( a ) tetragonal zirconia solid solution→monoclinic zirconia solid solution+cubic zirconia solid s…
Phase relationships in concentrated solution and in the bulk of a solvent/rigid-rod/flexible-coil system were investigated. The solvent was a mixture of two strong acids. The rigid-rod polymer was poly-p-phenylenebenzobisthiazole (PBT). The flexible-coil polymer was poly-2,5(6)benzimidazole (ABPBI). The concentrated s…
Abstract The structure‐property relationships of polycaprolactone‐based segmented polyurethanes were studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), small‐angle x‐ray scattering (SAXS), wide‐angle x‐ray diffraction (WAXD), dynamic mechanical, and stress‐strain testing. The materials studied varied in hard‐segme…
The procaryotic endogenous storage polymer known as poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate is actually a mixed polymer of short-chain beta-hydroxy fatty acids. A method for the quantitative recovery of this mixed polymer, called poly-beta-hydroxyalkanoate (PHA), with analysis by capillary gas-liquid chromatography, showed the pres…
Abstract This article contends that three distinct physical processes control electron transport in conductor‐filled polymer systems. Percolation is required to explain the macroscopic conduction in the disordered medium. Quantum mechanical tunneling (possibly quantum fluctuation augmented) is needed to describe condu…
Ultrafine tetragonal ZrO 2 powder was prepared by hydrothermal treatment at 100 MPa of amorphous hydrous zirconia with distilled water and LiCl and KBr solutions. The resulting powder consisted of well‐crystallized particles; at 200°C, the particle size was 16 nm and at 500°C, 30 nm. Under hydrothermal conditions tetr…
The meaning of a scalar crystal field strength parameter defined previously [4, 5] is studied. It is shown why, in many cases, it can be used as an indication of the magnitude of the maximum Stark splitting of J-terms for ions in crystals of different structures and site symmetries. It thus provides a way of making us…
The subtilisin gene from B. amyloliquefaciens has been cloned and expressed under its own promoter on a high copy plasmid, pBS42, in Bacillus subtilis I-168 (Marburg strain). Greater than 95 percent of the expressed protease activity is secreted, and the activity is sensitive to inhibition by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluo…
Angle-resolved photoemission is shown to be a very versatile technique which probes electronic structure as well as geometric structure. All quantum numbers of an electronic state can be determined. In particular, energy and momentum of electrons in a solid are probed by measuring energy and momentum of photoelectrons…
Chemically prepared polypyrrole was treated with diphenyliodonium hexafluoroarsenate and upon u.v. irradiation a conductivity of 3 × 10–3Ω–1 cm–1 was attained.
Helium bubble formation was observed in austenitic stainless steels by transmission electron microscopy following implantation of 30 to 1000 appm helium at room temperature and annealing at 700 to 800°C. Helium bubble distributions at dislocations and at various grain boundaries and precipitates were studied. It was f…
Previous theoretical treatments of the scattering of conduction electrons at surfaces are reviewed and it is found that a more complete theory is necessary if the effects of surface scattering in transport phenomena are to be adequately understood. The boundary condition for the distribution function is derived and an…
Microscopical, miscibility and X-ray studies establish the existence of two new mesophases in the two enantiomers of 1 (methyl)-heptyl terephthalidene bis amino cinnamate. In one of this two mesophases the two enantiomers do not exhibit a total miscibility range; while for the second the untwisted form observed with t…
Exact calculations using transfer matrices on finite strips are performed to study the two-dimensional problem of one lattice animal with an attractive nearest neighbour interaction. Thermodynamic quantities such as specific heat, compressibility, thermal expansion are calculated. Finite size scaling with two strips o…
Les propriétés magnétiques statiques d'une chaîne isotrope formée en un ordre alterné de spins quantiques 1/2 et de spins classiques sont déterminées analytiquement en toute rigueur. La susceptibilité théorique est un bon accord avec les mesures de Verdaguer sur le composé CuMn(S2C2O 2)2(H2O)7,5.
