Abstract A kind of clay with fibrous morphology, attapulgite (AT), was used to prepare poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/AT nanocomposites via in situ polymerization. Attapulgite was modified with Hexadecyltriphenylphosphonium bromide and silane coupling agent (3‐glycidoxypropltrimethoxysilane) to increase the dispe…

Abstract Multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/epoxy composites are prepared, and the characteristics and morphological properties are studied. Scanning electron microscopy microphotographs show that MWCNTs are dispersed on the nanoscale in the epoxy resin. The glass‐transition temperature ( T g ) of MWCNT/epoxy composi…

We observed a large HEMD effect in the bilayer manganite (La$_{0.4}$Pr$_{0.6}$)$_{1.2}$Sr$_{1.8}$Mn$_2$O$_7$, a direct consequence of field driven spin-glass insulator to ferromagnetic metal transition. The remnants of the transition can be used to achieve dielectric contrast at room temperature. This discovery sugges…

The dynamics of alignment of microstructure in confined films of diblock copolymer melts in the presence of an external electric field was studied numerically. We consider in detail a symmetric diblock copolymer melt, exhibiting a lamellar morphology. The method used is a dynamic mean-field density functional method,…

Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) have been used to differentiate the 2- and 4-methylpyridyl isomers of free-base and metallated cationic beta-vinylpyridylporphyrins. The analysis by ESI-MS/MS of the deuterated analogs and semiempirical calculations of structur…

By using a combinatorial screening method based on the self-consistent field theory, we investigate the equilibrium morphologies of linear ABCBA and H-shaped (AB)(2)C(BA)(2) block copolymers in two dimensions. The triangle phase diagrams of both block copolymers are constructed by systematically varying the volume fra…

Complementary diaminopyridine (DAP) and flavin derivatives self-assemble into discrete helically stacked tetrads in hydrocarbon solvents. The self-assembled structure was demonstrated through induced circular dichroism using DAPs with chiral side-chains and flavin with achiral side-chains. Flavin derivatives with chir…

In this work, an oxidation model for alpha-uranium is presented. It describes the internally lateral stress field built in the oxide scale during the reaction. The thickness of the elastic, stress-preserving oxide (UO(2+x)) scale is less than 0.5 microm. A lateral, 6.5 GPa stress field has been calculated from strains…

By employing Monte Carlo simulations for various values for the interactions energies epsilonAB between the beads A and B, the selectivity of the surface for one of the beads, and the diameter d of the nanotube, the morphology transitions in A5B5 and A7B3 diblock copolymer melts were investigated. In symmetrical syste…
