We study monolayers formed at an air−water interface on a Langmuir trough by telechelic poly(ethylene oxide) polymers end capped with hydrophobic alkane groups (C 12 and C 16 ). The pressure−area isotherms show two plateaus: the first plateau at low coverage already exists for nontelechelic PEO and is attributed to th…

A series of perylene-containing polyimides and copolyimides have been synthesized and characterized by DSC, TGA, NMR, UV−vis, and X-ray powder diffraction measurements. Xerographic electrical measurements indicated that perfectly alternating copolyimides had higher photosensitivities than those of homopolyimides and r…

Poly( N -vinylpyrrolidone)-stabilized polystyrene (PS) latexes have been coated with thin overlayers of polyaniline (PANi) to produce electrically conductive “core−shell” particles. In this work we focused on the morphology of the PANi overlayer, the colloid stability of the coated latexes, and electrical conductivity…

Polyaniline base was protonated by blending with camphorsulfonic and picric acids in the solid state. The electrical conductivity of the equimolar mixture was more than 10 7 times higher compared with the conductivity of components used for blending. The electrical conductivity still increased several times after heat…

We investigate both numerically and analytically the convective instability of granular materials by two dimensional traffic equations. In the absence of vibrations the traffic equations assume two distinctive classes of fixed bed solutions with either a spatially uniform or nonuniform density profile. The former one…

The molecular ion H3+ is considered the cornerstone of interstellar chemistry because it initiates the reactions responsible for the production of many larger molecules. Recently discovered in dense molecular clouds, H3+ has now been observed in the diffuse interstellar medium toward Cygnus OB2 No. 12. Analysis of H3+…

The paper introduces new developments of the original AREA method. A rigorous mathematical proof that the equilibrium points are the only ones which satisfy the maximum AREA criterion in the case of a two-component, two-phase system is given for the first time. A rigorous proof that the maximum AREA criterion is a nec…

The sequential bond dissociation energies (BDEs) for M + (NH 3 ) x ( x = 1−4) for M = Ti−Cu are determined by examining the collision-induced dissociation reactions with xenon in a guided ion beam mass spectrometer. In the cases of Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu, the BDE for the second ammonia molecule is determined to be greater…

DFT calculations on a series of oligomers have been used to estimate band gaps, ionization potentials, electron affinities, and bandwidths for polyacetylene, polythiophene, polypyrrole, polythiazole, and a thiophene−thiazole copolymer. Using a slightly modified hybrid functional, we obtain band gaps within 0.1 eV of e…
