Grain growth kinetics for nanostructured nickel was studied by means of isothermal and isochronal annealing and TEM. The range of temperature for the isothermal and isochronal annealing has been selected between 603K and 683K. The isothermal curves for grain size show that an explosive grain growth occurs in the early…

Nanometer‐sized BaTiO 3 powders have been synthesized hydrothermally from Ba(OH) 2 and titanium alkoxide at 150°C for 2 h, and the Ba/Ti ratio has been measured with an accuracy of ±0.003. Stoichiometric powders can be obtained by adjusting the Ba/Ti ratio of the reactants to a value of 1.018. At a lower Ba/Ti ratio,…

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) can be used to infer the distribution of lamellar crystal thickness l. For homopolymers, the relation between melting temperature T and thickness is described by the Gibbs relation. In this case the weight distribution function of thickness g(l) ∝ P(T)(T − T)2, where P(T) is DSC…

Abstract Polymeric porous membranes were prepared from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fine powder by a series of mechanical operations, such as extrusion, rolling, and stretching. The structure of the prepared porous membrane was well characterized by a spatial periodicity of nodes (domain of agglomerated PTFE particl…

The phase behavior of colloid-polymer mixtures, and of solutions of globular proteins, is often interpreted in terms of a simple model of hard spheres with short-ranged attraction. While such a model yields a qualitative understanding of the generic phase diagrams of both colloids and proteins, it fails to capture one…

In this study, sintered glass‐ceramics made up of jarosite (a hazardous industrial waste) have been obtained by sintering high‐iron‐content glasses. Thermal gravimetry and differential thermal analysis, carried out in different atmospheres, have been utilized to explain the phase formations in the volume and iron oxid…

Photoelectrochromic “smart” window technology is extended to include the use of flexible substrates and solid‐state electrolytes. This should facilitate their application as retrofit modifications of office windows, where, by blocking incoming solar irradiation, they could substantially lower air‐conditioning costs. T…

Recently it was shown that smectic liquid crystal phases formed by achiral banana-shaped molecules are chiral. Films of such phases generally contain both homochiral (consisting of layers of the same chirality) and racemic (the chirality alternates in subsequent layers) domains. So far it has not been clear how to con…
