Abstract In this paper, I provide a theoretical basis for a practical approach to measuring the pressure field of an air gun array and present an algorithm for computing its wavefield from pressure measurements made at known positions in the vicinity of the gun ports. The theory for the oscillations of a single bubble…

Large ATP-dependent proteolytic complexes carry out the majority of intracellular proteolysis. To begin to understand the function of these proteases at a structural level, we have combined the information from a number of biophysical techniques such as electron microscopy (EM), small-angle scattering, and x-ray cryst…

The unsolved problem of plastic waste utilization has led to a great interest in the development of studies of accelerated degradation of polymers. In this work the course of photo-oxidative degradation of some water soluble polymers such as poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA) and poly(vinylpyrrolid…

Although NiO is often considered the classic example of an antiferromagnetic insulator, recent investigations have revealed unexplained features of the magnon spectrum. The present study of the temperature and polarization behavior of first-order magnetic Raman scattering reveals that the polarization selection rules…

New liquid crystalline 1,3,5-triazines are presented that incorporate three mesogenic groups based on rod-like azobenzene moieties. The synthesis was carried out by reaction of cyanuric chloride with 4-alkoxy-4-aminoazobenzene derivatives. The mesomorphic behaviour was investigated by polarizing microscopy, differenti…

The starting mechanisms and dynamics of laser-induced bubble formation at a submerged fiber tip in distilled water were experimentally investigated using pressure measurements and fast flash videography. A fiber guided Ho:YAG laser operating in the free running (τ=200 μs) and Q-switched (τ=45 ns) mode at a wavelength…

The WLF approach is appropriate for lifetime predictions when polymer ageing is controlled by a viscoelastic process (relaxation, creep). This methodology using time/temperature shift will be illustrated by the creep of SBR/NR. When physico-chemical mechanisms are dominant, the Arrhenius approach is the most widely us…

The long-range interface correlation in thin polymer films (polystyrene and fully brominated polystyrene) prepared by spin-coating is examined. Using diffuse X-ray scattering at small angles of incidence, the roughness correlation which dominates the surface morphology of the polymer film is probed from mesoscopic dow…

Enzyme-catalyzed ring-opening polymerization of a cyclic phosphate (ethylene isopropyl phosphate) was achieved in bulk by using porcine pancreas lipase (PPL) as a catalyst. It was found that the higher the polymerization temperature and lipase concentration, the faster is the polymerization rate. The yield is not very…

Abstract This paper describes plastic foam processing for the manufacture of LLDPE foams in rotomolding. In order to better understand the mechanisms of foaming, a fundamental study on the foaming process in rotomolding has been conducted. First, the decomposition behavior of the chemical blowing agents was studied by…

A study was made of the copper corrosion rate and corrosion products originated by the action of acetic acid vapor at 100% relative humidity. Copper plates were exposed to an acetic acid contaminated atmosphere for a period of 21 days. Five acetic vapor concentration levels were used. The copper corrosion rate was in…

By considering a Hamiltonian that includes the crystalline electric field and exchange interaction components we showed theoretically that paramagnetic ${\mathrm{PrNi}}_{5}$ exhibits an anomalous entropy behavior in which the magnetic entropy increases with increasing magnetic field at low temperature. This anomaly in…

The crystal structure of 2-pyridone has been redetermined from high-resolution X-ray data collected at 123 K. The molecule is in the lactam form. Bond lengths (corrected for rigid-body libration) and angles have been determined with s.u.'s of 0.001 A and 0.1 degree, respectively. The hydrogen-bonded cyclic dimers whic…

The previously reported reaction of phthalocyanines [H2(pc)] with PBr3, which was claimed to give a phosphorus(III) phthalocyanine “(PcPIII)”, has been reinvestigated in detail with both unsubstituted and alkyl-substituted phthalocyanines, 1-4. The products exhibit unusual electronic and mass spectra compared to norma…

A nitrogen purged static-bed batch reactor was used to pyrolyse 3 kg batches of shredded scrap tyres at temperatures between 450 and 600 °C. The yield of char remained fairly constant at about 38 wt% irrespective of pyrolysis temperature; however, the yield of oil decreased from 58 wt% to 53 wt% and the gas yield incr…
