In order to delay the undesirable discoloration of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) by heating, the synergetic effect of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) as co-stabilizer with a mixture of zinc and calcium stearates was clarified. Usually, the abrupt discoloration was caused by the formation of a π-complex between the cool colour-…

Abstract Isothermal crystallization of natural rubber (NR) dispersed in styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) was made at −25 °C to investigate effects of both gel fraction of the rubber and morphology of the blend on the crystallization. NR, thus used, was lightly crosslinked model compound (model-NR), which was cured with…

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are synthesized by the ablation of a catalyst-containing carbon target with a cw CO 2 laser. Emphasis is on ablation conditions that are favorable to self-organized SWCNT synthesis. It is shown that the graphite target intensely evaporates with the formation of fractal-like tube…

Porous silicon (por-Si) is prepared by the electrochemical etching of single-crystal n -silicon in an aqueous-alcoholic solution of hydrofluoric acid in the presence of hydrogen peroxide oxidizer. The dependence of the high-frequency C-V characteristics of Al/por-Si/Si heterostructures on the relative humidity is stud…

Negative charging of a specimen may produce the image contrast of yielding the information under the insulating thin film in scanning electron microscopy. To clarify and make good use of the recently developed negative-charging contrast (NCC), we propose a simplified procedure for quantifying secondary electron (SE) i…

Abstract Segmental relaxation in a series of polymethylphenylsiloxanes (PMPS) was studied using dielectric spectroscopy. The measurements covered a temperature range of more than 40 deg at pressures from ambient to 115 MPa. The results confirmed that the shape of the loss peak is independent of temperature, pressure a…

We have studied cell gap-dependent driving voltage characteristics in a homogeneously aligned nematic liquid crystal (LC) cell driven by a fringe electric field, termed the fringe field switching (FFS) mode. The results show that for the FFS mode using a LC with positive dielectric anisotropy, the operating voltage de…

35 Cl NMR spectra were measured using the highest-temperature solid phase of n-C x H (2x+1) NH 3 Cl and n-C x H (2x+1) ND 3 Cl (x=5−10). The observed quadrupole coupling constants (e 2 Qqh −1 ) decreased upon heating in this phase, and significant frequency differences of ca. 20 − 30 kHz were detected between the -NH…
