Abstract The proposed model is based on the simplified description of the thread structure, and it works with the textile description of thread structure. The following textile parameters are used in the model: fineness of fibres, and number of fibres at the cross-section in the bundle and the filling. The formation o…

An experimental study was conducted to determine the influence of temperature on crevice corrosion initiation for Alloy 625 (UNS N06625) in natural seawater. These tests showed that there was a critical potential-temperature-time relationship needed to initiate crevice corrosion. The potential necessary to cause crevi…

A procedure was assessed for obtaining an optimum amount of a micro-mesoporous material known as smectite from Reşadiye (Tokat/Turkey) bentonite. The procedure, which will permit a better economic evaluation of the Reşadiye reserves, is based on successive settlements of bentonite suspensions during various time inter…

Abstract The effect of surface treatment on the properties of bamboo/epoxy, bamboo/polyester composites was investigated. An improvement in the properties was observed when the surfaces of the bamboo fibers were modified with polyesteramide polyol (PEAP). The performance of surface treated bamboo composites in terms o…

Abstract Blends of low‐density polyethylene with random copolymers of ethylene and vinyl acetate (PE/EVA) are studied with respect to their environmental stress‐cracking resistance (ESCR) using the Bell‐telephone test. This system shows the shortest time to failure in the ESCR test after annealing at 50 °C in a stress…

Abstract A new family of iron( II ) tetrafluoroborate and perchlorate spin‐crossover compounds has been synthesised and is discussed. The iron( II ) ion is surrounded by six 1‐ethyltetrazole ligands, which are halogen‐substituted on the C2 atom of the ethyl group. The spin‐crossover temperatures T 1/2 are high compare…

The effect of samarium substitution on dielectric and ferroelectric properties of BST is studied. Sample with compositional formula [Ba0.95Sr0.05]1− x /2Sm x Ti1− x /2O3, with x varying from 0 to 0.025 in steps of 0.005, were prepared by the conventional dry method. X-ray analysis confirmed the formation of single-pha…

Various types of three-dimensional matrices have been used as basic scaffolds in myocardial tissue engineering. Many of those are limited by insufficient mechanical function, availability, or biocompatibility. We present a clinically established collagen scaffold for the development of bioartificial myocardial tissue.…

Different amounts of silver (0.5–10 wt%) have been mixed with EIA X7R‐type ceramic powders based on barium titanate. The XRD analysis indicated that no phases other than BaTiO 3 and silver were present in the doped ceramics; it further suggested that no reaction took place between BaTiO 3 and silver during calcination…

In this work, a bentonite clay from Mendoza, Argentina was activated with H2SO4 (4 and 8 N) at 90ºC for 2 and 3.5 hours. Under these conditions several cations were removed from the octahedral sheet (Mg, Al, and Fe) and the DTA-TGA curves of the solids obtained after treatment were modified. Treatment time and acid co…
