Abstract Interchain transesterification reactions (ITR) play an important role in high temperature synthesis of most linear polyesters. For example, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is prepared commercially by heating and distillation of ethylene glycol from a glycol capped oligomer of PET. In this paper, the potentia…

The intercalation of a cubical octamer derived from the controlled hydrolysis of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane with smectite clays has been examined. The organosilicon cubanes are adsorbed in an amount that exceeds the cation exchange capacity of the mineral. The excess quantity is incorporated in the form of physicall…

In this study, sulfide based spinel materials of tin and titanium were synthesized (Cu2FeTi3S8 and Cu2FeSn3S8). A topotactic substitution of tin by titanium atoms was performed in order to obtain electrode materials with high specific capacity associated to a good conductivity. According to the first electrochemical t…

Polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) films are potentially useful in electro-optic devices since they can be used for vision products. In this work the PDLC thin films were prepared by a photopolymerization induced phase separation method and electro-optic properties of the films were investigated.

A cure kinetic model was presented to explain the reversion and the induction period commonly found in the vulcanization of rubber compounds. The model has three kinetic rate constants and one induction time which should be determined on the basis of isothermal rheometer curves. The torque curves calculated using the…

Transmission electron microscopy of the polycrystalline natural diamond, carbonado, reveals the existence of voidites, different from the voidites in type Ia natural diamonds, not only in their shape but also in their content and their origin. There is evidence that one group of voidites with an unusual shape is forme…

The effect of concentration of sodium hydroxide on the gelatinization of hypochlorite oxidized maize starches was thoroughly investigated. It was found that oxidation of starch increases its affinity towards gelatinization with alkali solutions at room temperature. Clear gelatinized starch could be obtained immediatel…

Time resolved small angle X-ray scattering is used to probe the microstructural changes occurring in a sample of poly(hydroxybutyrate), aged at room temperature, during a heating cycle designed to reverse any physical ageing. Evidence for the reversal of physical ageing is seen, but is unlikely to account for all the…
