A signal loss is generally reported in electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) of porous, highly divided materials like heterogeneous catalysts. The hypothesis generally proposed to explain this signal loss refers to porosity, roughness, energy losses at interfaces, or charging effects. In this work we investigate by Mont…

A re-investigation of the chemical constituents of the stem bark of Symplocos racemosa Roxb. led to the isolation of four new glycosides, symplocomoside (1), symponoside (2), symplososide (3) and symploveroside (4). Benzoylsalireposide (5) and salireposide (6) were re-isolated from this plant. The structures of the ne…

Abstract Initial stages of the gel-to-kaolinite transformation were studied using HRTEM. Spherical aggregates of kaolinite crystals were produced during the synthesis of kaolinite by hydrothermal treatment of Si-Al amorphous gels. Prior to sphere formation, gels transform into pseudospherical domains that have a Si/Al…

CaTi 0.8 Fe 0.2 O 3–δ ceramics with grain sizes that varied from 2 to 10 μm were obtained and studied using SEM, TEM, Mössbauer spectroscopy, impedance spectroscopy, and electrochemical oxygen permeability measurements. Smaller grains developed a core–shell microstructure that consisted of a pure CaTiO 3 core and an i…

The initiation and propagation of adiabatic shear bands (ASBs) in functionally graded materials (FGMs) deformed at high strain rates in plane-strain tension have been studied. An ASB is a narrow region, usually a few micrometers wide, of intense plastic deformation that forms after softening of the material due to its…
