Coordination structure of zinc(II) ions in a mixed-solvent system of formamide and ammonium formate. An EXAFS and RDF investigation
The coordination structure of ZnII ions in HCONH2–HCOONH4–ZnO solution, where the molar ratio of HCOONH4 and ZnO is ca. 2.0, has been investigated using EXAFS (extended X-ray absorption fine structure) and RDF (radial distribution function) methods. From both results we found that ZnII ions from mononuclear Zn(HCOO)2(…
The Characteristics of Ag–Al<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>3</SUB> Films Electrodeposited from Thiocyanate Solutions
The characteristics of Ag–Al2O3 films electrodeposited from silver thiocyanate solutions containing Al2O3 particles were investigated. The following results were obtained. As the amount of added Al2O3 particles was increased, the amount of Al2O3 codeposition in the Ag electrodeposited film increased, with a subsequent…
Structure of a Unidirectionally Solidified GaSb-CrSb Eutectic Alloy
A eutectic alloy of GaSb-CrSb has been unidirectionally solidified at various rates of solidification, in order to investigate the structural change with the solidification condition.The results are as follows:(1) The spacing λ of CrSb rods was expressed to be linear to R−1⁄2, where R was the rate of solidification, a…
Transformation of β-SiC in Sintering Process
It has been reported that a unique polytype transformation (6H→4H) in the sintering process of SiC ceramics with BeO addition was observed by means of analytical electron microscopy, in which α-SiC powder was used as a starting material. In this report, the sintering process of β-SiC was investigated. It was expected…
Electrical Conductivity of Crystallized Glasses of the System Na<sub>2</sub>O-V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>-P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> Containing Vanadium Bronze Crystals
In order to obtain highly conductive glass-ceramics containing vanadium bronze, MxV2O5 (M=alkali metal, etc), which is known to have high electronic conductivity, Na2O-V2O5-P2O5 glasses were heat treated to perform crystallization. The dc conductivities of the glasses containing 60 to 77mol% V2O5, in which [Na2O]/[V2O…
Relation between Wet Adhesion of Coated Steel and Stress Changes in Paint Film
Relationship between wet adhesion of paint coating film (paint film) on coated steel (wet adhesion) and stress changes in paint film has been investigated. At the same time, the creation mechanism of ZnO under paint film has been examined.Zn3(PO4)2•4H2O under paint film dehydrates to Zn3(PO4) 2•2H2O with cathodic elec…
pH Determinations on the Surface of Luting Cements
The effects of various additives on pH and rates of setting reactions of a commercial zinc phosphate cement system were examined. While the addition of various organic materials to the cement powderproduced no effect on the pH changes, addition of both calcium oxide and calcium hydroxide to the cement powder increased…
Preparation and Several Properties of Ferroelectric Powder Pb{(Mg, Zn)<sub>1/3</sub>Nb<sub>2/3</sub>}O<sub>3</sub> (Part 1)
Powders containing perovskite type double oxides of the series Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3 as a main constituent have been prepared by firing the batch mixture according to the chemical formulae. It is interesting to know the substitutional solid solubility of ZnO for MgO in this series because the latter end me…
Photochromic systems. Part 2. Studies on the photoreactions and the photopolychromic properties of (E)-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl-substituted)methylene isopropylidenesuccinic anhydrides
Each of the pale yellow title compounds (1), in toluene and other appropriate organic solvents, cyclises on irradiation at 366 nm to give purple solutions containing a mixture of a thermally unstable, blue 4-substituted 1,8a-dihydro-5,8-dimethoxy-1,1-dimethylnaphthalene-2,3-dicarboxylic anhydride (5) and a thermally s…

Electron-relay chain reaction of N-methyl-4-β-styrylpyridinium ion on colloidal silica
The effect of colloidal silica on the [Ru(bpy)3]2+-sensitized photochemical cis-trans isomerization of N-methyl-4-β-styrylpyridinium (cis-MSP+) ion induced by one-electron transfer has been studied. An efficient electron-relay chain reaction has been shown to take place on the colloidal surface, on the basis of remark…
Reduction of edge penetration effect in the scanning electron microscope
Abstract Electron penetration into the sample in the scanning electron microscope can give rise to bright fringes close to sharp edges in the secondary electron image. This can make it difficult to see details close to the edge. These fringes can be considerably reduced by putting a positive control electrode (CE) bet…
Frustrated Liquids: Liquid Crystal Blue Phases
Because the locally favourable structure is globally unfavourable, choles teric liquid crystals are frustrated. Near the isotopic transition, blue phases (BP) appear as compromise structures to relieve this frustration. BPI and BPII are soft, cubic crystals with giant unit cells.
Study of local hydrogen content related to root cracking.
The local hydrogen concentration in the heat-affected-zone where the root cracking occurred has been investigated using the finite difference method. The effect of groove and weld metal shapes on the local hydrogen concentration was basically examined. It is clear that the local hydrogen related with the cold cracking…
Aqueous and atmospheric corrosion of cobalt-nickel alloys
The corrosion of cobalt-nickel alloys at ambient temperatures is reviewed. In the aqueous phase, data for the anodic and cathodic half-cell reactions are reported, as also for free corrosion. Under most conditions, corrosion resistance increases with nickel content, although in certain circumstances, the 50–50 wt-% al…
The distribution of carbon in boron carbides: 13C nuclear magnetic resonance studies
The lattice sites occupied by carbon in B12C3 and B9C are examined in terms of their boron‐carbon nuclear dipolar couplings and chemical shielding anisotropies as revealed by 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The 13C spin‐echo decays for B9C is more rapid than that of B12C3, which is interpreted as stronger…
Work-Hardening and Recovery Rates in Pure Aluminum Single Crystals during High-Temperature Deformation
In order to clarify the contribution of grain boundary effect on the work-hardening rate without recovery effect, h, and the recovery rate without work-hardening effect, r, these two parameters in pure aluminum single crystals have been measured and compared with those in aluminum polycrystals reported so far. The mea…
