Exfoliated PS/Na−MMT nanocomposites were obtained up to 3 wt % of clay without modifying clay organically and DBS−Na affected the degree of exfoliation of silicate layers. The feed rate of monomers also had an effect on polymerization, and it was a key to controlling the total monomer concentration and maintaining a c…

Polyelectrolyte brushes were formed at the interface between hydrophobized mica and water by adsorbing amphiphilic diblock copolymers consisting of a hydrophobic and a charged block. We measured force−distance profiles with the surface force apparatus (SFA) for several polyelectrolyte brushes of different lengths as a…

Capacitors made of metallized films of plastics suffer partial discharge named self-healing. This disruptive phenomenon is described as the spontaneous extinction of an electrical arc due to the destruction of the electrodes during the process. In this paper we modelize self-healing by a cylindrical arc that strikes a…

An experiment was performed to clarify how the carrier mobility is influenced by the existence of acetophenone in polyethylene. One side of a polyethylene film, 0.1-mm thick, was soaked with acetophenone. Time-dependent charge distribution was monitored by the pulsed-electroacoustic method, when a "carrier excitation…
