This paper describes the development of so-called all-polypropylene composites, namely polypropylenes (PPs) reinforced with oriented polypropylene fibres rather than glass or natural fibres. These all-polypropylene composites have specific economic and ecological advantages since, upon recycling, a polypropylene blend…

The magnetic and phase properties of CoxTi1−xO2 anatase thin films grown epitaxially on (001) LaAlO3 by a reactive rf magnetron cosputter deposition have been examined. CoxTi1−xO2 (x=0.07) thin films exhibit room-temperature ferromagnetism, as evidenced by hysteresis in M–H loop. Chemical mapping indicates segregation…

We consider heat exchange processes between non-equilibrium aging systems (in their activated regime) and the thermal bath in contact. We discuss a scenario where two different heat exchange processes concur in the overall heat dissipation: a stimulated fast process determined by the temperature of the bath and a spon…

Normal mode analysis is an effective computational method for studying large-amplitude low-frequency molecular deformations that are ubiquitously involved in the functions of biological macromolecules, especially supermolecular complexes. The recent years have witnessed a substantial advance in methodology development…

Kretschmann prism couplers, including magneto-optical media such as Co, Fe, and Ni, allow enhancement of the magneto-optical response, such as conversion of light polarization, thanks to the resonant excitation of surface plasmons. Since these media have high losses, they support overdamped surface plasmons. A way to…

This brief review describes the major features of grain boundary mobility in metals and current limitations in our theoretical understanding. Although thermally activated exchange of atoms across boundaries provides a basic picture of grain boundary correct to within an order of magnitude, no refinement of this theory…

Abstract Four methods for detecting cocontinuity in a poly(ethylene oxide)/polystyrene (PEO/PS) system are compared: scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with image analysis, solvent extraction, electrical conductivity measurements, and rheological measurements. Measurements of the amounts of interfacial area using a no…

3,4-Ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) was used as the reductant for the first time in the preparation of gold nanoparticles by the reduction of HAuCl 4 in THF solution with alkylamine as the stabilizer. During the reduction process of HAuCl 4, EDOT was oxidized and oxidatively polymerized. The alkylamine stabilizer and th…

Abstract Tungsten oxides are of interest as an oxidant for metals in metastable intermolecular composites, a nano‐scale powder useful for such applications as electric matches and gun primers. Smaller particles typically lead to faster reactions and we have synthesized nano‐scale WO 3 using wet chemistry. Ammonium par…

Novel Lu‐α‐SiAlON ceramics were produced by hot pressing mixtures of Si 3 N 4 , Lu 2 O 3 , AlN, and Al 2 O 3 at 1950°C for 2 h in a nitrogen atmosphere. The resultant SiAlON was fully dense and possessed a uniform, equiaxed microstructure with a grain size of ∼1 μm, which resulted in a high hardness of >19 GPa. In…

We report the synthesis ofAu nanoparticles, with tunable longitudinal plasmon band and shape selectivity, mediated by starch in the presence of ultrasonic waves. The synthesis was carried out by reduction of HAuCl4, at various concentrations, using H2O2 as the reducing agent. When the reactions were carried out in the…

The density and the isobaric heat capacity of alumina in its liquid and undercooled states were measured using an electrostatic levitation furnace. Over the 2175 to 2435 K temperature interval, the density can be expressed as ρ( T )=2.93×10 3 -0.12( T - T m ) (kg·m -3 ) with T m =2327 K, yielding a volume expansion co…

The transverse resistivity in thin films of La0.84Sr0.16MnO3 (LSMO) exhibits sharp field-symmetric jumps below TC. We show that a likely source of this behavior is the giant planar Hall effect combined with biaxial magnetic anisotropy. The effect is comparable in magnitude to that observed recently in the magnetic sem…

The measurement of partial discharge (PD) activity has become an invaluable tool for monitoring the insulation condition of high-voltage components in service. In particular, it is important for factories and for the utilities to get an indication of the time to breakdown. In this paper, the authors describe a study o…
