Time-of-flight quasielastic neutron scattering experiments have been performed on solid solutions of Na2SO4 and Na3PO4 in order to examine the reorientational anion motion in the picosecond range. The obtained data were analysed on the basis of the Q-dependent quasielastic intensity. Comparing the predictions of diffe…

Abstract Raman and surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra of 3‐phenylpropionic acid on silver colloids at several concentrations and pH values were recorded. The analysis of the spectra indicated that 3‐phenylpropionic acid links to the metal through its carboxylate group, keeping the aromatic ring almost pe…

The effect on the nematic to smectic-A transition in octylcyanobiphenyl (8CB) due to dispersions of hydrogen-bonded silica (aerosil) particles is characterized with high-resolution x-ray scattering. The particles form weak gels in 8CB creating a quenched disorder that replaces the transition with the growth of short-r…

Abstract The adsorption behavior of 4,4′‐dicyanobiphenyl (DCBP) on Ag and Au nanoparticle surfaces was studied by surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The absence of the ring CH band denoted a flat orientation of the biphenyl ring on Ag and Au. The red shift of the ν 8a band indicated a direct ring π‐orbital inte…

In this paper we report modifications of the surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra with film thickness of carbon single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs). The decrease of film thickness reveals an increased degree of disorder, which is interpreted in terms of degradation of the single-walled nanotubes and the format…

Abstract To facilitate the characterization of polymer networks, a comparison was made between branching theory and Monte Carlo simulations using an amine‐cured epoxy as an example for step‐growth polymer networks. The primary objective was the validation of the simulation results with the existing statistical theorie…

The average magnetic susceptibilities for trivalent rare earth (R3+) ions in polycrystalline tetragonal rare earth oxybromides (ROBr, R = Ce–Nd, Sm, Eu, and Tb–Yb) were measured between 2 and 298 K. The susceptibilities of all ROBr follow the paramagnetic Curie–Weiss behaviour down to low temperatures except for SmOBr…

Abstract In vitro degradation of poly( L ‐lactic acid) (PLLA) fibers was studied by incubating the fibers in phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.4) at 37°C for 35–45 weeks. Three kinds of PLLA fibers with different diameters and different initial viscosity‐average molecular weights were tested. The viscosity‐average molec…

Synthetic hydrocerussite [trilead dihydroxide dicarbonate, Pb(3)(CO(3))(2)(OH)(2)] can be easily obtained, as a white powder, by the action of carbon dioxide and water on either lead or litharge at pH 4-5. This compound is also found in lead corrosion technological products as a fine-grained phase. Ab initio crystal s…

Magnetic nanoparticles (Ni, CoNiFe) with diameters ranging from 30 to 200 nm were synthesized by electrodeposition using carbon nanowalls as templates. A series of experiments have been carried out to study the formation mechanism of nanoparticles. It was found that the formation of nanoparticles instead of continuous…

The crystallization of polymeric and metallic materials normally occurs under conditions far from equilibrium, leading to patterns that grow as propagating waves into the surrounding unstable fluid medium. The Mullins-Sekerka instability causes these wave fronts to break up into dendritic arms, and we anticipate that…

We report on a neutron spin echo investigation of the intermediate scale dynamics of polyisobutylene studying both the self-motion and the collective motion. The momentum transfer (Q) dependences of the self-correlation times are found to follow a Q(-2/beta) law in agreement with the picture of Gaussian dynamics. In t…
