The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) was studied by a conventional thermogravimetric technique under various heating rates in a flowing nitrogen. The kinetic model that accounts for the ef fects of scission of the polymeric chain at any time was proposed to describe the thermal decom…

Heat capacities of ${\mathrm{La}}_{2}{\mathrm{NiO}}_{4+\ensuremath{\delta}}$ crystals were measured in the temperature range 14--400 K and composition range $0.047<~\ensuremath{\delta}<~0.116$ with an adiabatic calorimeter. Heat capacity anomalies were observed in the range 230--300 K due to positional order-dis…

Cordierite‐based dielectric thick films deposited by screen‐printing on a Cu 2 O‐Cu‐96% alumina substrate were investigated with regard to microstructural characteristics, densification, and crystallization. Compared to direct deposition of the cordierite layer on metal Cu, the use of the Cu 2 O layer as a diffusion b…

Single crystals of rare earth orthovanadates, doped with active elements, have been obtained for the first time by a hydrothermal method. In spite of the fact that these rare earth vanadates have high melting points (> 1800 degrees C) and very low solubility, the authors have obtained these rare earth orthovanadates u…

Binary melt-blended mixtures of two aryl ether ketone polymers (i.e., a new poly(aryl ether ketone) (code name PK99) and poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK), have been studied. Polymer miscibility in glassy amorphous (or melt) domains has been demonstrated for the binary blend comprising of two aryl-ether-ketone-type semi…

ABSTRACT A new Line Intersection (LI) procedure for determining sterilization value (F o ) and quality or nutrient retention (cook value: C o ) was developed using the original Equivalent Point Method (O‐EPM). Analysis of 30 conventional and 5 simulated thermal curves showed excellent agreement between F o values dete…

Both the energy losses of π electron plasmon and valence electron plasmon in polycrystalline graphite have been measured by reflected electron energy loss spectroscopy (REELS). It was found that when crystallites are smaller than 10 nm, the π plasmon energy is lower than the value estimated from the valence plasmon en…

This brief report (i) presents equations that govern the balance of tangential forces in interfaces between isotropic viscous fluids and nematic liquid crystals, and (ii) establishes the physical origin of nematic Marangoni flows. It is shown that surface gradients in the orientation dependent surface free energy give…

Grain-boundary impurity diffusion of Au along the incoherent twin boundary in a diffusion-bonded Cu bicrystal has been studied by the serial sectioning technique. The measured penetration profiles had a rather atypical shape which we interpreted in terms of structural multiplicity of the grain-boundary structure. A me…

Correlation between the shape of Raman, photoluminescence (PL) and Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) signals in CVD diamond films was examined for both undoped and nitrogen-doped films. No correlation was observed between the shift of the diamond Raman line and its linewidth, even for the films produced under essentially…

Mixed radioactive and chemical wastes stored in tanks across the DOE complex generate hydrogen, ammonia, nitrous oxide, and nitrogen by a complex series of radiolytic and thermolytic reactions. Flammable conditions may result when these gases accumulate in the dome space of the waste tanks. A phenomenological model wa…

HFC-365mfc and HFC-245fa are now well documented as promising blowing agents, and their production will come on stream in a few years. However, none has the same ideal boiling point as CFC-11 or HCFC-141b. Blends may offer the best compromise to customize the different end-use requirements. Two different directions fo…

A high-speed photographic film record of a Taylor impact experiment was analysed to determine the strain, strain rate and stress. The stress was calculated on the basis of an interpretive analysis by Taylor involving the motion of a plastic wave in the material. The data on drawn OFE copper produced stresses from 300…
