Additional examples of successful application of macromolecular crystal annealing are presented. A qualitative evaluation of variables related to the annealing process was conducted using a variety of macromolecular crystals to determine in which cases parameters may be varied and in which cases the original macromole…
In this paper, we discuss the application of the maximum entropy method to atomic resolution Z-contrast images acquired in a scanning transmission electron microscope. Z-contrast is an incoherent imaging technique, and can be described as a convolution between an object function (the real-space map of the columnar sca…
A three‐dimensional construction is presented that illus‐trates conditions under which anisotropic interfaces will be fully wetted, partially wetted, or not wetted by a second phase. Recent experimental observations on the equili‐brated morphologies of solid or fluid “wetting” phases along anisotropic interfaces and g…
Plasma copolymerization of hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO, (CH 3 ) 3 -Si-O-Si-(CH 3 ) 3 ) and tetrafluoroethylene (CF 2 =CF 2 ) was performed using an RF plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition method, for its application to low dielectric constant intermetal dielectrics. Film structure was investigated by X-ray photoe…
An attempt is made in this work to model quantitatively the peel force vs. rate behavior of a pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) tape. The approach follows suggestions of previous authors in modeling the deformation of the PSA as uniaxial extension of individual strands. A debonding failure criterion based on stored el…
A likely mechanism for the formation of quasicrystals is by maximally covering space with overlapping, stable atomic clusters. This notion is here applied to the experimentally determined layered structure of octagonal MnSiAl quasicrystals, which can be described in terms of a decoration of the octagonal Ammann-Beenke…
Esters of trifluoromethane sulfonic acid have been synthesized by reaction of different alcohols with triflic anhydride and used in situ as initiators for the polymerization of tetrahydrofuran. Kinetic studies of the polymerization showed that allyl triflate has the highest reactivity and that an increase of the alkyl…
A molecular dynamics simulation was conducted on hydrogen embrittlement at a crack tip of a single crystal of -iron composed of {100} planes under uniaxial tensile load along the 100 direction on a nanometre scale at 293 K. The modified Morse pair-potential function of Fe-Fe and the Morse potential function of Fe-H we…
Polyimides of different structures were synthesized by reaction of 1,4-phenylene diisocyanate (PPDI) and 1,5-naphthalene diisocyanate (NDI) with pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and 3,3′,4,4′-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA). Polyamide-imides were also prepared by reaction of PPDI and NDI with trimellitic…
Neural networks are used to predict the performance of fabrics in clothing manufac turing. The predictions are based on fabric mechanical properties measured on the KES-FB system. The influence of the number of input and hidden nodes on the convergence speed and the prediction accuracy are investigated. Tests indicate…
The thermal conductivity of ${\mathrm{UO}}_{2}$ pellet, which is used as nuclear fuel, was calculated using the nonequilibrium classical molecular dynamics method by Evans and Morriss. The result of calculation from 300--3000 K obtained presents the same tendency as experiments below 2400 K. Above 2400 K, a different…
Dispersion of Al 2 O 3 and SiC particles in an alumina sol has been investigated through determination of particle‐size distribution, zeta potential, and agglomerate morphology. The particle size of Al 2 O 3 and SiC (as determined by the particle‐size analyzer) is strongly affected by the presence of alumina sol in th…
Two diaminocalix[4]arene monomers were synthesized from p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene through a 4-step reaction sequence. New copoly(amic acid)s containing calix[4]arene moieties on the polymer backbone were successfully synthesized in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone by polycondensations of 4,4′-oxydiphthalic anhydride (ODPA) with…
The combination of time-of-flight secondary mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) and monochromatized x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) has proved to be a valuable tool for the analysis of chemically modified polymer surfaces. By applying these techniques in situ, together with a plasma modification chamber and a Knudsen…
We studied a red photoluminescence (PL) band at about 1.8 eV with full width at half maximum of 0.2–0.4 eV in a series of oxygen deficient-type silicas before and after γ irradiation. The decay lifetime of the PL was estimated to be about 200 ns. The PL excitation peak was found to be located at 2.1 eV. The intensity…
A principle of constructing hysteresis models with stable minor loops is proposed. It has been found that a modeled reversal curve of any order can be obtained by copying (transplanting) the segment of the first-order curve that has the same overall dimensions and is the nearest to the modeled curve in the M- (or B-)…
Abstract 1,3,5-tris{p-(N-oxy-N-tert-butylamino)phenyl}benzene (2) is known as a persistent triradical with a quartet ground state. A new triradical with a triazine skeleton was synthesized and characterized. The nitroxide triradical with triazine derivative 2,4,6-tris{p-(N-oxy-N-tert-butylamino)phenyl}-1,3,5-triazine…
The inelastic neutron scattering spectra of the polycrystalline n-alkanes, 5<n<25, have been obtained at ∼25 K. At this temperature the n-alkane molecules are extended in their all-trans configuration. The spectral region from 200 to 600 cm−1 is reported with emphasis on the higher frequency longitudinal…
The exchange of oxygen atoms between acetate, glutaryl-CoA, and the catalytic glutamate residue in glutaconate CoA-transferase from Acidaminococcus fermentans was analyzed using [(18)O(2)]acetate together with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry of an appropriate undecapeptide.…
Monodisperse polymeric nanospheres, which consist of polystyrene cores and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) branches on their surfaces, were prepared by the dispersion copolymerization of styrene (St) with PEG macromonomers that had a methacryloyl (MMA-PEG) or p-vinylbenzyl (St-PEG) end group in various organic solvent/wat…
