Abstract The reaction of poly(ethylene terephthalate) waste (PETW) powder with ethylene glycol (EG) was carried out in a batch reactor at 2 atm of pressure and a 220°C temperature. The particle size range of 50–512.5 μm and the reaction time of 40–180 min that are required for glycolysis of PETW were optimized. To avo…

Abstract The effects of additives in various vegetable oils on the physical, mechanical, and adhesion properties of carbon black/rubber compounds were studied. Various doses of castor oil and some other oils such as paraffin oil, vegetable oil 1, and cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) at a fixed dose (1 phr) were used. Wi…

The conceptual design of a 20 MWe-class hybrid power generating system that integrates a Siemens Westinghouse pressurized solid oxide fuel cell generator with a Mercury 50 gas turbine is discussed. The Mercury 50 was designed and developed by Caterpillar/Solar Turbines during the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Advanc…

We report in situ neutron diffraction studies of high-density amorphous ice (HDA) at 100 K at pressures up to 2.2 GPa. We find that the compression is achieved by a strong contraction ( approximately 20%) of the second neighbor coordination shell, so that at 2.2 GPa it closely approaches the first coordination shell,…

It is argued that the magnetic behavior of Sr$_2$MnMoO$_6$ is determined by the existence of two total energy minima corresponding to the metallic ferromagnetic and insulating antiferromagnetic states, which may be nearly degenerate depending on the magnitude of the breathing distortion.

We have explored the effects of the Li intercalation on the electronic and magnetic properties of transition-metal (TM) doped anatase TiO$_2$. By Li intercalation, Mn-doped TiO$_2$ exhibits the insulator to metal transition. On the other hand, Li-intercalated Fe-doped TiO$_2$ has the insulating ground state for low co…

For the low molecular weight fragile liquid diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A we report, based on Brillouin and dielectric spectroscopy, on a thermal glass transition where the relaxation time of the alpha process does not go to infinity. Instead, the structural alpha relaxation disappears spontaneously at the transitio…

The dielectric fluctuations in the uniaxial nematic phase of a bent-core liquid crystal have been studied by dynamic light scattering. Polarization selection of the scattering cross-section reveals one mode due to ordinary director fluctuations and, in the lower part of the nematic phase, a second mode attributable to…

We investigate the sensitivity of x-ray absorption spectroscopy to cubic-hexagonal polytypism in which nearest-neighbor positions are virtually unchanged. Experimental spectra and multiple-scattering calculations are reported at the major absorption edges in the zinc-blende and wurtzite modifications of ZnS. We demons…

Composite materials have grown rapidly both in their applications and their economic importance, and they will no doubt continue to do so. With this growth has come increased attention in engineering curricula, but most coursework tends to focus on laminate theory and the analysis of composites, not on the practical d…

The heat capacity of solid Kr-CH4 solutions with 30 and 60 mol.% CH4 has been studied at 0.8-20 K. The contribution of the rotational subsystem Crot to the heat capacity of the solutions is separated. The results obtained in this study and Ref. [4] were used to estimate the difference between the lowest-level energies…

We review investigations of the electron-phonon interaction (EPI) in metal diborides MeB_2 (Me=Zr, Nb, Ta, Mg) by point-contact (PC) spectroscopy. For transition metal compounds the PC EPI functions were recovered and EPI parameter $λ\lesssim 0.1$ were estimated. The data are consistent with the measured surface phono…

It has been established in nineteen seventies that in nonequilibrium case the pair collisions generate non-zero two-particle correlations which are non-diagonal in momentum space and give the essential contribution to the current fluctuations of hot electrons. It is shown here that this correlations give also a contri…

Effects of processing parameters and thickness on the properties of spin-on SrBi/sub 2/Ta/sub 2/O/sub 7/ (SET) films were investigated. Film crystallinity was improved with heat treatment but surface roughness also increased significantly above 400/spl deg/C. Capacitor polarization was found to be a function of electr…

Ageing due to multifactor stresses of the surface of organic materials has to be divided into two different stages named "early" and "late" stage of ageing. While standardized tests such as the inclined plane test or the rotating wheel dip test aim at verifying only the performance of insulating materials in the late…

Partial discharges (PD) are an indication of weak spots in the insulation of DC high voltage equipment. For AC equipment, classification of the type of defect can be achieved if statistical tools are used on the PD phase distributions. In this paper, the authors propose the use of a similar technique for classificatio…
