Silicate glasses kept at ambient temperature densify spontaneously, and their properties change with time. This is known as ageing of a glass. The spontaneous change occurs according to first-order rate kinetics, with a characteristic (relaxation) time much shorter than that of the α-relaxation process. According to t…

Electrically switchable diffraction gratings can be formed in the self‐assembled cholesteric liquid crystal gels prepared using an azobenzene‐containing gelator. The grating formation (see Figure) results from a light‐induced reorganization process in these materials, which leads to the removal of the nanometer‐sized…

A mixed-potential model is described to predict the corrosion behavior of used nuclear fuel inside a steel-lined failed Canadian nuclear waste container under anticipated waste vault (repository) conditions. The model accounts for the effects of the alpha radiolysis of water, the precipitation of corrosion products on…

Nanostructured spinel NiZnCu ferrites were prepared by the sol-gel method from metal nitrate raw materials. Analyses by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy showed the average particle size of NiZnCu ferrite was under 50 nm. The single phase of NiZnCu ferrites was obtained by firing at 250/spl deg/C, res…

In hexaferrites of the composition SrFe/sub 12/O/sub 19/ (SrM), Sr was substituted by R = La, Sm, and Nd. The precursors were weighed according to different Sm/sup 3+//Sr/sup 2+/ ratios (n = Sm/sup 3+//Sr/sup 2+/), where n was varied between 1/16 and 1/2. The samples were produced by hydrothermal synthesis. The effect…

An attempt is made to identify the acoustical characteristics of textile materials using precision woven monofilament fabrics as model textiles. The experiments try to eliminate the effect of entrapped air pockets in the fabric on an ultrasound wave field. The results of the experiment reveal that the power consumptio…

The objective of this work is to describe the dynamic thermal behaviour of thermoelectric generators and refrigerators. In practical situations, these devices work under transient operating conditions due to the time change in the imposed current, voltage, and hot or cold temperatures. Results for transient temperatur…

Abstract In industrial textile pre-treatment and finishing processes, mass transfer and mass transport are often rate-limiting. As a result, these processes require a relatively long residence time, large amounts of water and chemicals, and are also energy-consuming. In most of these processes, diffusion and convectio…
