The effect of chemical-mechanical modification (CMM) on the ζ potential and size distribution of nanodiamonds was studied. Results show a significant change in the functional groups on its surface after CMM treatment by the anionic surface modifier DN-10. The amount of hydroxyl groups decreases, and two peaks connecte…

The subpeak was first observed in glassy Fe−Al ribbons. The origin of the subpeak is not due to the system size, but it is consequence of the occurrence of local atomic structural order. The usual stability of undercooled liquids against crystallization is explained by means of local atomic structural order. Direct ex…

A broadband polarization switch consisting of an active twisted nematic liquid crystal cell and two passive uniaxial compensation films is analysed. The conjugate gradient method was used for optimizing the device parameters. Simulation results indicate that the polarization switch exhibits a broad bandwidth and high…

In this letter we report a large experimental effort exploring the dynamics of poly(vinyl ethylene) on length scales covering Rouse dynamics and below. The results establish the simultaneous existence of a generic sublinear diffusion regime which underlies the α-process in addition to the Rouse process. Both regimes a…

The aqueous electropolymerisation process can be used for the production of primer coatings on metals. Recent studies have shown that such types of coatings are highly corrosion resistant. Further it is also shown that electropolymerisation coating with pigment is feasible. Besides, the use of polymers such as polyani…

Abstract Electrically and thermally conductive resins can be produced by adding conductive fillers to insulating polymers. Mechanical properties such as tensile modulus, ultimate tensile strength, strain at ultimate tensile strength, and notched Izod impact strength are also important and cannot be ignored. This resea…

Abstract An immiscible polymer blend where the dispersed phase is fibrillar was prepared by in situ crosslinking of the minor phase. A model polystyrene/epoxy‐amine blend was selected on the basis of rheological (achievement of the fibrillar structure) and reactivity (fast crosslinking) criteria. The system was a poly…

Heat-treatment-induced conversion of nanodiamond to nanographite is investigated. Graphitization starts at the surface region around a heat-treatment temperature of 900°C, then it proceeds inward in the particle, and finally it is completed around 1600°C, where nanographite particles form a polyhedron with a hollow in…

Abstract We investigate the self‐organization of PSS in brushes and polyelectrolyte multilayers with X‐ray, neutron and optical reflectivity. The electrostatic force dominates brush phases and adsorption behavior, additionally we find evidence of a strong hydrophobic force: (ι) within amphiphilic diblock copolymer mon…

The metastable crystal structure of strontium‐ and magnesium‐substituted LaGaO 3 (LSGM) was studied at room and intermediate temperatures using powder X‐ray diffractometry and Rietveld refinement analysis. With increased strontium and magnesium content, phase transitions were found to occur from orthorhombic (space gr…

Abstract X-ray basal reflections of several HDTMA-vermiculites show that when these contain co-adsorbed molecules of HDTMA-Br, their interlayer spacings are ∼29.5 Å. After HDTMA-Br has been leached out with ethanol, spacings decrease to ∼26 Å, but when exposed to toluene vapor the spacings increase to ∼36 Å, and to ∼4…
