The Onsager reaction-field (ORF) theory is extended so that it applies to any three-dimensional Bravais lattice with a basis. The ORF calculation is used to predict the critical temperature for classical Ising, XY, and Heisenberg magnetic models, in particular, on diamond and hexagonal close packed lattices. Results a…
The protonic conductivity in the hydrogen bonded chains is investigated theoretically in the framework of the two-stage transport model. The strong interactions with optical phonon stretching mode are considered. We obtain the transition from the insulator to the metal-type state from the temperature dependencies of t…
In a recent Letter, Gurovitch and Sens studied the adsorption of a weakly charged polyelectrolyte chain onto an oppositely charged colloidal particle. By using a variational technique they found that the colloidal particle can adsorb a polymer of higher charge than its own, and thus be ``overcharged.'' I argue that th…
A stabilization of the liquid-crystalline mesophase and thus an enlarged temperature range of the mesogenic phase is achieved by adding perfluorotriphenylene to a chiral liquid-crystalline triphenylene. This mesophase is based on 1:1 perfluoroarene-arene interactions (see picture). In a polymer with triphenylenes as m…
Hansen solubility parameters (HSPs) are used to predict molecular affinities, solubility, and solubility-related phenomena. Revised and updated throughout, Hansen Solubility Parameters: A User's Handbook, Second Edition features the three Hansen solubility parameters for over 1200 chemicals and correlations for over 4…
A blueprint for the design of oxide materials is provided by nature. By borrowing from nature's ability to influence inorganic microstructures in biomineralization processes and in the hydrothermal synthesis of complex minerals, a new class of materials in which organic components exert a role in controlling inorganic…
Polyaniline (PANi) was synthesized by using lignosulfonic acid as a template/dopant and ammonium persulfate as the oxidizing agent. The product was water-borne and showed a conductivity of 10 -1 S/cm lignosulfonic add-poiyaniHne (Ligno-PANi) was characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy which showed peaks for both benzenoi…
A single Er 3+ centre in CaGdAlO 4 :Er 3+ has been identified to have C 4v symmetry from polarized laser selective excitation. This is consistent with isovalent substitution of the Er 3+ ions for host crystal Gd 3+ ions. Using both optical and infrared absorption and polarized laser excited fluorescence, 59 crystal-fi…
We investigate absorption, emission and excitation properties of an SrB 2 O 4 :Eu crystal grown from the melt using the Czochralski method. Eu 2+ absorption and Eu 3+ emission spectra are obtained. The five broad absorption bands peaking at 344, 288, 259, 235 and 212 nm correspond to the transitions from the 4f 7 ( 8…
Electron momentum spectroscopy (EMS) has been used to measure the valence band electronic structure of thin magnesium and magnesium oxide films. The band structures have also been calculated within the linear muffin-tin orbital (LMTO) approximation. The free-electron-like parabola characteristic of metallic solids was…
The reaction mechanism of poly(benzo[1,2- d:5,4- d ‘]bisoxazole-2,6-diyl-1,4-phenylene) (PBO) at elevated temperatures was studied by means of model compounds and a 13 C-labeled PBO polymer. Products from model compound thermal degradation suggest that the dominating reactions are homolytic scission of a single bond a…
We report on the photoluminescence properties of CuCl thin films with the thicknesses of 20 and 100 nm under intense-excitation conditions produced with a pulsed nitrogen laser. We have clearly observed two photoluminescence bands with a superlinear (almost quadratic) excitation-power dependence. The high-energy band…
The novel sulfidic mesophase [C14H29N(CH3)3]2MnGe4S10 forms via the surfactant-templated assembly of adamantane Ge4S104- clusters and Mn2+ ions in water. The material possesses a continuous, fully bonded framework of MnGe4S10 which is perforated with large parallel tunnels arranged with hexagonal order. The materials…
Experimental solubilities are reported for 2-hydroxybenzoic acid dissolved in 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 2-methyl-2-propanol, 1-pentanol, 1-octanol, dibutyl ether, 1,4-dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, 2-propanone, 2-butanone, and cyclohexanone at 298.15 K.…
Human keratinocytes were cultured on plasma copolymers (PCPs), self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), and tissue culture poly(styrene) (TCPS). Plasma copolymerization was used to deposit films with controlled concentrations of carboxylic acid functional groups (<5%). Human keratinocytes were cultured onto these PCP surface…
Four different types of core−shell tecto-(dendrimer) were imaged by tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM). The tecto-(dendrimer) molecules were based on PAMAM dendrimers, and included G4G3, G5G3, G6G4, and G7G5 (the first number represents the generation number (G) of the core, and the second number, the generati…
Ordered aluminosilicate mesostructures having a SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 ratio near 5 were prepared using a surfactant-templated synthesis. The solid structures were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen sorption to determine pore volume and pore sizes, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), thermal desorption of…
A new methodology is presented for calculating parameters of complex surface reaction mechanisms. This approach takes into consideration adsorbate−adsorbate interactions along with their influence on the activation energies of surface reactions as a function of operating conditions. It combines an extension of the uni…
Nanosize bundles of huge lengths of silica-nanotubes were synthesized by a surfactant-assisted templating mechanism in a laurylamine hydrochloride/tetraethoxysilane system with the aid of trimethylsilylation treatment. The transmission electron microscopy images confirmed the formation of the bundles of silica nanotub…
Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of Eu 2+ and Tb 4+ were observed at room temperature in one fluoride phosphate and two phosphate glasses. Although both ions are isoelectronic, they have different ESR spectra. Eu 2+ ions exhibit pronounced features at effective g -values of 2.0, 2.8 and 6.0, which is typical for…
