Abstract The purpose of this article is to study the fast structural changes that take place during the deformation and heat setting of uniaxially preoriented poly(ethylene 2,6‐naphthalate) films. For this purpose, an online birefringence measurement system coupled with a heat‐setting oven was used. In the online bire…

We investigate the effect of anisotropy in grain boundary mobility on the dynamics, morphology, and topology of grain growth, using both analytical and numerical calculations on a generalized anisotropic phase field model. The dependence of the grain boundary mobility on both inclination and misorientation is included…

Details of the electronic and structural connections between macropolyhedral boranes and elemental boron are reported. The nature of electron deficiency in the beta-rhombohedral polymorph of boron is analyzed by using a molecular fragments approach with boranes as model systems. The B57H36 molecule constructed from su…

Abstract The plastic behavior of polyamide‐6 (or nylon‐6) films under uniaxial and biaxial tensile drawing is studied in relation to structural features. Quenched films in the mesomorphic β form are more ductile than films in the predominant stable α form. Films in the major γ crystalline form are intermediate between…

Edible films were prepared from solutions of soy protein with calcium salts and glucono-delta-lactone (GDL). Calcium salts cross-linking interactions with soy-protein isolate (SPI) could result in the formation of films with rigid three-dimensional structure. GDL contributed to the formation of a homogeneous film stru…

The hyperbolic geometry of the pores in SBA-15 are drawn into a three-dimensional structure by small lateral pores, distributed in a random way, as shown in the picture, which interconnect the main channels. This construction was established by forming a "negative" of the structure with platinum precipitated in the ch…

The complex conductivity of a MgB2 film has been investigated in the frequency range 4 cm^{-1}< nu < 30 cm^{-1} and for temperatures 2.7 K < T <300 K. The overall temperature dependence of both components of the complex conductivity is reminiscent of BCS-type behavior, although a detailed analysis reveals a number of…
