1 H NMR spectra for solutions prepared by dissolution of [CpCr(CO) 3 ] 2 and [Cp*Cr(CO) 3 ] 2 in toluene in the temperature range 190−390 K are interpreted in terms of thermodynamic and kinetic parameters for dissociation of the diamagnetic dimers into the paramagnetic monomers CpCr(CO) 3 and Cp*Cr(CO) 3 . There is no…

Suspensions of poly(2-ethylhexyl acrylate) in supercritical CO 2 formed by dispersion polymerization with a poly(dimethylsiloxane)-based surfactant were sprayed to form uniform films. The viscosity reduction of the dispersed phase caused by dissolved CO 2 is crucial for atomization to produce fine droplets, and for co…

The 515 kHz ultrasound-initiated reduction of AuCl 4 - to Au(0) was examined as a function of the concentration of various surface-active solutes. The amount of AuCl 4 - reduced in the presence of ethanol, propan-1-ol, and butan-1-ol was found to be dependent on the surface excess of the alcohol at the gas/solution in…

We present results of small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) investigations into the characteristics of charged poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimer solutions in deuterium oxide. The study shows that ionic strength, surface charge density, and concentration are the crucial parameters controlling the degree of structural…

Recent simulations suggest that the presence of filler particles in a phase separating blend can induce the development of composition waves having the symmetry of the filler particles. We investigate these predictions through atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements on ultrathin ( L ≈ 100 nm) polystyrene and poly(v…

Significant enhancements in the electrocatalytic oxidation of HCOOH are obtained on deliberately stepped platinum surfaces with (111) terraces and (100) monatomic steps when bismuth is deposited on terrace and/or step sites. The bismuth-modified surfaces with higher step densities/narrower terrace widths exhibit highe…

Hydrous aluminosilicate glasses of composition NaAlSi 8 O 18, NaAlSi 3 O 8, NaAlSi 2 O 6, and NaAlSiO 4 have been studied with 1 H MAS, and 1 H/ 27 Al, and 1 H/ 23 Na TRAPDOR NMR spectroscopy. Two different environments for molecular water were identified. Three 1 H OH resonances (1.5, ca. 3.5, and 5−6 ppm) are observ…

In a previous work [ Macromolecules 1998, 31, 6426] the preparation technique of a latex of poly(β-hydroxyoctanoate) (PHO) obtained from Pseudomonas oleovorans grown at high cell density on sodium octanoate was presented. The resulting films displayed typical properties of thermoplastic elastomer. Depending on the exp…

The ligand field in HBr results in the splitting of the Br 3d orbitals into the 3d (d x 2 - y 2 , d xy ), 3d (d xz , d yz ), and 3d (d z 2 ) orbitals. In core ionized HBr, the stronger spin-orbit splitting removes the remaining degeneracies and results in five different Br 3d eigenstates from linear combinations of th…

The molecular hyperpolarizabilities and electronic properties of some azulene-containing chromophores have been investigated by employing AM1/FF and ZINDO/S-CI approaches. The calculation results show good agreement with the experimental values. It is found that the nonalternant azulene ring can be regarded as a more…

We report on the highly exothermic solid-state reaction between hexachlorobenzene and calcium hydride. Once ignited by a thermal spike, the reaction displays a self-sustaining character in the CaH 2 /C 6 Cl 6 molar ratio of 3:18. The high temperatures reached, i.e., 2550−2900 K, ensure a complete breakdown of the arom…
