The recently reported memory effects in the ferroelectric commensurate phase of [N(${\mathrm{CH}}_{3}$${)}_{4}$${]}_{2}$${\mathrm{CoCl}}_{4}$ is investigated by means of dielectric susceptibility measurements in other ${A}_{2}$${\mathrm{BX}}_{4}$ compounds. While the effect could also be detected in [N(${\mathrm{CH}}_…

In CaO–Al2O3- and CaF2–CaO–Al2O3-slags the soluted water vapour was quantitatively determined with Fourier-Transform-lnfrared-(FT-IR-)spectroscopy. The slags were equilibrated at 1500 and 1600 °C with definite H2O- and H2O/HF-partial pressures, respectively. The liquid slags were quenched in liquid D2O. They solidifie…

Abstract Chlorination of high density; polyethylene results in polymers which consist of unmodified methylene units and chlorinated methylene co‐units. The effect of the concentration and distribution of chlorinated units on the solid state structure has been examined by thermal, wide angle X‐ray diffraction and dynam…

The stage of growth at which three plant species, a grass, a legume and a cereal, absorbed initially non-exchangeable potassium (Kn) from two soils, a red podzolic and a krasnozem, was examined by sequential harvesting in a glasshouse experiment. Large amounts of Kn were removed from the red podzolic soil, which conta…

A method has been devised for studying the spontaneous polarization, dynamics of polarization reversal, and the molecular reorientation processes that occur in the bulk and surfaces of ferroelectric liquid crystals. These studies have been carried out by analyzing the current response to triangular- and square-wave fo…

A.c. and d.c. conductivities of amorphous films of Ge—Sb–Se have been investigated for different Sb: Se ratios, keeping the Ge content constant at 20 at. %. The a.c. conductivity [sgrave](ω, T) in the frequency range 0•5-10•0 kHz is found to obey the law [sgrave](ω, T) = Aω3. The exponent s is found to decrease with i…

The erosion wear and posterosion strength properties of Al 2 O 3 containing 10 vol% ZrO 2 were determined as a function of the kinetic energy of the impacting sharp particles. Samples were prepared with three different surface treatments to obtain different amounts of tetragonal zirconia on the surface. With all three…

Abstract Hydroxy‐interlayered vermiculite (HIV) from a Quartzipsamment, a Haplaquod, and a Paleudult from Florida was studied to determine levels of nonexchangeable K associated with this mineral. Mineralogy was characterized by x‐ray diffractometry (XRD) and thermal analysis. A scanning electron microscope equipped w…

Abstract The change in ring current of octaethylporphyrin, meso ‐tetraphenylporphyrin and phthalocyanine cobalt(III) complexes with axial amine ligands was studied using a double dipole network model. The porphyrin ring current was found to be highest in octaethylporphyrin but decreased by 5% in meso ‐tetraphenylporph…

Hydrogen absorption-desorption properties of some uranium-rich alloys were studied to develop an advanced material for temporary tritium storage. The characteristics of U-33.3at%Zr were analogous to those of U-69.7at%Zr, while the durability to powdering was reduced according to a decrease of zirconium content. The U-…

A number of facilities have been either constructed or are operating to extract tritium from the heavy water moderator systems of nuclear reactors. However it is expected that most fusion reactor concepts would require the recovery of tritium from light water coolant or blanket systems. This paper highlights the signi…

Abstract A study of the transport of the dichloromethane in neat poly(aryl‐ether‐ether‐ketone) (PEEK) samples with thicknesses from 0.08 to 3.0 mm with different morphologies was conducted at 35°C. Both sorption and desorption of the solvent were studied. Thermal annealing was used to vary the sample morphology, and d…

In an aircraft fuel, microbial contamination creates serious corrosion problems. The wing tank bottom and sides are affected by the growth of a biological sludge associated with the condensed water. The behavior of the AA(1) 7075 Al alloy in a culture of the principal contaminant, the fungus Cladosporium resinae, is d…

In this paper we describe the effect of oxygen-reactive ion-beam etching of a polyimide film to enhance its adhesion to an overlying, subsequently deposited copper film. The adhesion strength of the copper to the polyimide could be increased by as much as a factor of 25 as a result of the etching. Near the etching con…

Abstract Exposure of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to MgKα x‐rays (1253.6 eV) for times as short as 10 min is observed to lead to permanent radiation hardening toward chemical etching. X‐ray‐dosed surfaces are visibly less etched, and the loss of F is over a factor of 2 smaller. For PTFE itself, the x‐ray photoelectr…
