Abstract Hydroxypropyl cellulose films were cast from liquid crystalline solutions with a crosslinking agent. The solubility test and the optical measurements of the resultant films were performed. The tensile, dynamic mechanical, and creep properties of the films were determined. The data of solubility in water deter…
Abstract The shear viscosity of blend solutions of hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) and ethyl cellulose (EC) in m ‐cresol (both HPC/ m ‐cresol and EC/ m ‐cresol systems form lyotropic liquid crystals) was determined by cone‐plate‐type and capillary‐type viscometers. The textures for the same systems at rest and undergoin…
Abstract Intrinsic viscosity of several nylon 66 polymers in the molecular weight range 25,000–105,000 was measured in hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP). The experimentally measured viscosity was compared with the data obtained by least‐squares fit of the classical equations of Huggins and Kraemer. The utility of the singl…
Abstract The microporous polypropylene sheets were prepared by biaxially stretching polypropylene sheets containing CaCO 3 filler (particle size, 0.08–3.0 μm), when the CaCO 3 filler content was 59% by weight and the stretching ratio was 2.8 × 1.8. The microstructure of the sheets were investigated in relation to the…
Abstract This paper presents an investigation of the properties of composites of bacteria‐produced polyesters reinforced with wood cellulose. Although cellulose fibers improved the strength and stiffness of the polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), the samples were very brittle. The impact strength and elongation at break of the…
Electrochromic properties of V2O5-TiO2 thin films prepared by a spin-coating method were strongly dependent on the film compositions and heat-treatment temperatures. It was found that the nearly amorphous film of V2O5-TiO2 (3:7 in molar ratio) heat-treated at 400 °C showed coloration to reddish brown when polarized at…
We report a quasielastic light scattering measurement of the isotropic-nematic phase transition of a liquid crystal in silica gel. The normalized intensity autocorrelation function, ${G}_{2}(t)$, which samples the order-parameter fluctuations, is consistent with the form ${G}_{2}(x)\ensuremath{\sim}\frac{1}{(1+{x}^{2}…
By means of quasielastic neutron scattering we have shown that the dynamics of the \ensuremath{\alpha} relaxation on three different polymeric glasses shows a clear non-Debye behavior on a mesoscopic time scale. The spectral shape is found to be independent of temperature and momentum transfer (Q). The characteristic…
Incommensurate charge density waves (CDWs) in some materials form domains within which the CDWs may be commensurate. However, two questions have remained controversial: What is the geometrical structure of these domains, and are they or are they not identical on the surface and in the bulk? To address these issues in…
This Test Guideline describes the Zahn-Wellens/EMPA Test. It is used to determine inherent biodegradability. A mixture containing the non-volatile and water soluble test substance, mineral nutrients and a relatively large amount of activated sludge in aqueous medium is agitated and aerated at 20-25°C in the dark or i…
A technique enabling the study of adherence occurring among implant materials and epithelial and connective cells cultured in vitro and freshly obtained from explants of human gingival tissue is described. The data show that cell adherence to titanium alloy is influenced by the modality of implant surface preparation.
The wettability of eight nonaqueous elastomeric impression materials was studied by comparing their contact angles. The materials included three polyethers (one of which was light activated), three hydrophilic poly(vinyl siloxanes), one conventional poly(vinyl siloxane), and one poly(vinyl siloxane) putty. Extracted t…
Thin films of the organic semiconductor copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) are deposited onto glass substrates maintained at room temperature, and their structures investigated using X-ray diffractometry and infrared light absorption. Films of thicknesses approximately 0.1 μm are preferentially oriented in the [001] directi…
Cristallisation dans P4/ncc avec a = 7,447 et c = 16,138 A, Z = 4; affinement jusqu'a R = 0,023. La structure est du type BaFe[Si 4 O 10 ]. Elle contient des tetraedres SiO 4 qui partagent des sommets pour former des cycles a 4 membres qui a leur tour forment des couches Si 8 O 20 . Les cations Ba et Cu sont localises…
We have investigated the polar-angle dependence of medium-energy electron diffraction (MEED) from a Cu(100) surface. It is observed that MEED is characterized by a combination of coherent and incoherent scattering, and the incoherent part is governed by the forward-scattering mechanism. The incoherent MEED pattern dif…
In this paper we have subjected different layered transition-metal dichalcogenides to scanning tunneling microscopy to reveal the electronic charge distribution associated with the charge-density-wave (CDW) part of the superstructure, in addition to the atomic corrugation. The observations presented display three regi…
The lifetime of indirect excitons in AgBr quantum dots was studied at low temperature. Indirect-exciton luminescence shows a nonexponential decay. The unique nonexponential decay is well explained by a model that takes into account the discrete number of iodine impurities in a AgBr quantum dot. The obtained radiative…
Abstract Boron, aluminum, and gallium tristriflate are new effective catalysts for the polymerization of tetrahydrofuran (THF). High‐molecular‐weight polytetrahydrofuran (PTHF) was obtained in excellent yield in the bulk polymerization of THF at ambient temperature with all three catalysts. The PTHF samples were chara…
Highly correlated electronic structure calculations using many-body perturbation theory (MBPT) and coupled-cluster (CC) gradient techniques are applied to a study of a reaction pathway which links the two forms [C2v and D2d ] of diborane(4) [B2H4]. A reaction coordinate which preserves C2 symmetry is studied, as this…
The yeast fatty acid synthase (M(r) = 2.5 x 10(6)) is organized in an alpha 6 beta 6 complex. In these studies, the synthase structure has been examined by negative-stain and cryo-electron microscopy. Side and end views of the structure indicate that the molecule, shaped similar to a prolate ellipsoid, has a high-dens…
