We report self-assembled polymeric nanovesicles composed of 1,4-bis{4′-[N,N-bis(6′′-trimethylammoniumhexyl)amino]styryl}benzene tetrabromide (C1), poly[(ethylene oxide)-block-(sodium 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propane sulfonate)] (Em-An), and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (C16). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM…
A thorough analysis of the thermal conductivity of virgin and spent porous Si 3 N 4 ‐bonded SiC sidewall materials in the H all– H éroult electrolysis cell is reported. The thermal conductivity, measured by the laser flash method, was observed to vary significantly among the virgin materials and also within a single b…
Thermal decomposition has been employed to access spherical nickel oxide (NiO) nanoparticles from a new precursor, nickel-salicylate, [Ni(C7H5O3)2(H2O)4]. Surfactants, triphenylphosphine ((C6H5)3P), and oleylamine (C18H35NH2) were added to control the particle size. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction…
Deformation microstructure and texture in Mg-AZ31B bulk strips processed through extrusion-machining were studied as a function of deformation temperature. At warm deformation temperatures (~200°C), cold-worked type microstructures with predominant tilted basal texture were observed. With increase in temperature, grai…
The low-gravity experiment TRACE ( TR ansparent A lloys in C olumnar E quiaxed solidification) has been performed onboard the sounding rocket TEXUS-47 to enable the investigation of dendritic growth and the dendrites' columnar to equiaxed transition during solidification. Low-gravity conditions provide solidification…
Homogeneous SiGe crystal growth experiments will be performed on board the ISS "Kibo" using a gradient heating furnace (GHF). A new crystal growth method invented for growing homogeneous mixed crystals named "travelling liquidus-zone (TLZ) method" is evaluated by the growth of Si 0.5 Ge 0.5 crystals in space. We have…
Nanocomposite fibers are one of the most fascinating materials with broad applications. In the present work，nanocomposite fibers were prepared by a low-cost, simple, and “green” process. The nanocomposite of cellulose acetate/TiO 2 was realized by combining the functional oxide material TiO 2 with the regenerating ele…
We have performed phase field simulations in order to explore the effect of equiaxed grain nucleation undercooling on the columnar to equiaxed transition "CET" in the NPG-DC alloy system. Our phase field model is based on the multiphase-field method. The simulation parameters are adapted to a microgravity experiment p…
The texture and microstructure after hot rolling and annealing of WE54 alloy was investigated using X-ray techniques and optical microscopy. WE54 alloy was hot rolled at 400°C to two different reductions (20% and 53%) and then annealed at 450°C for 30 minutes. These treatments resulted in a retained but much weaker ba…
Semipolar Single-Crystal ZnO Films Deposited by Low-Temperature Aqueous Solution Phase Epitaxy on GaN Light-Emitting Diodes, Richardson, Jacob J., Koslow, Ingrid, Pan, Chih-Chien, Zhao, Yuji, Ha, Jun-Seok, DenBaars, Steven P.
The texture can be evolved through the γ to α transformation by cooling in Fe-Si alloy systems. Oxygen in the annealing atmosphere hampers the evolution of the texture. The texture evolution is associated with the fact that the {100} faces are elastically compliant so that the texture can develop in a manner consisten…
We developed an inorganic–organic hybrid thin film via the sol–gel method for a new liquid crystal alignment layer and investigated the influence of an organic species on the alignment characteristics of the liquid crystals (LCs). A thin film of methyl-doped amorphous silicon oxide (a-SiOx:CH3) was fabricated from the…
Magnesium slag powder from a local magnesium plant was treated to improve the volume stability for its application as building materials. The slag was mixed with borates, pressed into briquettes, and then sintered at high temperature. SEM studies show that at the higher temperature Ca 2 SiO 4 polymorphs were stabilize…
Enzymatic degradation tests of polymer in form of nanoparticle (NP) were used to study the biodegradation of two different types of polymers polytetramethylene adipitate (SP4/6) and polybutylene isophthalate (PBI) by two commercially available lipases. The two lipases, which are from the yeast Candida cylindracea (CcL…
The accumulation of dislocations around hard particles such as martensite in Dual Phase steel has a prominent influence on the mechanical properties of multiphase steels. The origin of these so-called Geometrically Necessary Dislocations (GNDs) is either due to the transformation strain, or to strain gradients that ar…
Abstract The process of incorporating water‐soluble eggshell membrane (S‐ESM) into polycaprolactone (PCL) electrospun nanofibers was investigated using the interaction between S‐ESM and catechin. Electrospinning of the nontoxic natural catechin with PCL was examined, and S‐ESM was introduced into the resulting PCL/cat…
Zerfo field splitting plays an important role in determining the electron spin relaxation of Gd(III) in solution. We understand the ZFS as an effect depending on the f electron structure and treat it in the framework of ligand field-density functional theory (LF-DFT). We apply this theory to calculate the ZFS of [Gd(D…
Abstract The relative permittivity, loss, and breakdown strength are reported for a commercial sample of bisphenol A‐polycarbonate (comm‐BPA‐PC) and a purified sample of the same polymer (rp‐BPA‐PC) as well as for two new polycarbonates having low molecular cross‐sectional areas, namely a copolymer of tetraaryl polyca…
Abstract Poly( p ‐phenylene benzobisoxazole)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PBO‐MWCNT) composites with different MWCNT compositions were prepared through in situ polymerization of PBO in the presence of carboxylated MWCNTs. The nanocomposite's structure, thermal and photophysical properties were investigated and compar…
Within the context of the ESA FOAM project, we have studied the stability of aqueous and non-aqueous foams both on Earth and in microgravity. Foams are dispersions of gas into liquid or solid. On Earth, the lifetime of a foam is limited by the free drainage. By drainage, we are referring to the irreversible flow of li…
