TiO 2-δ nanoparticles are synthesized by the sol-gel method and annealed under different reducing atmosphere. The x-ray diffraction patterns show that anatase is the dominant phase with small amounts of the rutile phase of TiO 2-δ for all the samples. Magnetic measurements indicate that the samples annealed in reducin…

New eco-composites were prepared from castor oil polyurethane reinforced with Luffa cylindrica fibres. These fibres were used without treatment as well as after mercerisation and mercerisation/benzylation surface treatments. TG curves of mercerised Luffa showed a small increase in thermal stability, associated with th…

Mn(x)Zn(1-x)Fe(2)O(4)-based magnetic fluids with x = 0.1-0.9 are synthesized by coprecipitation. The samples are heated in a radio frequency (rf) magnetic field using an rf generator at different powers, and the temperature is measured as function of time using an optical thermometer. The heating effect of the dispers…

The geometrical property of an atomic structure model of the Yb–Cd icosahedral quasicrystal is discussed from the higher-dimensional viewpoint. An occupation domain for the framework that specifies the arrangement of the three building units of the structure is presented based on a specific archetype occupation domain…

Abstract Summary: A novel combinatorial, high‐throughput experimentation (HTE) setup has been developed, which allows for rapid mapping of the phase behavior of blends of homopolymers and block copolymers. The principle is based on the preparation of composition ( ϕ )‐temperature (T) gradient films. Linear ϕ gradients…

Systematic investigation of structural, chemical, and magnetic properties of Co and Mn-doped Ge (001) as a function of doping concentration reveals that codoping with Co can dramatically reduce phase separation and diffusion of Mn within the Ge lattice while it magnetically complements Mn. The measured strain states i…

Serpentinite‐derived soils give rise to botanically distinct systems primarily because of inadequate parent material Ca content. We hypothesized that Ca content varies widely in what have been mapped as soils derived from serpentinite. An exchangeable Ca/Mg ratio <0.7 is often used to relate the imbalance of these…
