We apply a density-functional formalism to a system of hard spherocylinders and obtain a phase diagram including the isotropic, nematic, and smectic-A phases. The nematic--smectic-A transition can be of either first or second order, and the tricritical point is located at a length-to-diameter ratio L/D=5.9. The coexis…

Based on thermodynamic predictions that, in the gas‐phase system AlCl 3 /NH 3 , AlN can be produced up to the theoretical yield, the performance of a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor suitable for continuous powder production is investigated. Under the applied reaction conditions and reactor configuration, fine…

The antitumor activity and normal tissue toxicity of cis-diammine-1,1-cyclobutane dicarboxylate platinum (II) (carboplatin) in combination with whole body hyperthermia (WBH) (41.5 degrees C, 120 min.) were examined in an F344 rat model. Carboplatin data were compared with those of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) (ci…

The conductivity of doped polypyrrole, as high as 100 Scm−1 in freshly prepared samples, falls slowly with time on exposure to atmospheric oxygen. Typically, the fall in conductivity is fairly slow at room temperature, but the process can be accelerated by heating samples and measuring the decrease in conductivity as…

Earlier magnetic resonance studies suggested no direct interaction between Mg2+ ions and adenylate kinase (AK) in the AK.MgATP (adenosine 5'-triphosphate) complex. However, recent NMR studies concluded that the carboxylate of aspartate 119 accepts a hydrogen bond from a water ligand of the bound Mg2+ ion in the muscle…

Abstract The stereoselective substitution of chlorine atoms was used to graft anthracene and phenyl groups onto the poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) backbone as ultraviolet (UV) tracers for the assessment of the residence time distribution (R.T.D) of PVC chains during the extrusion of rigid and plasticized PVC. The residenc…

Laboratory-prepared samples of four types of epoxy coatings on 1010 (UNS(1) G10100) carbon steel were immersed in aerated ASTM(2) seawater for up to 4 years. Quantitative visual coating degradation via blistering was correlated to coating and corrosion parameters as determined by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy…

Abstract Pyrrole was found to polymerize electrochemically in a smooth and facile way when the immediate vincinity of the anode is at a pH of 3 ([H + ] = 10 −3 mol/dm 3 ). The polymerization is inhibited by the presence of a H + scavenger, di‐ tert ‐butylpyridine. Polymerization of pyrrole in a buffered solution of pH…

Dimers with very different RuRu bond lengths and RuClRu bond angles—deformation isomers—are present in equal parts in crystals of the title compound. Solid-state NMR investigations show that the isomer 1 a with the shorter RuRu distance (2.93 Å) is diamagnetic, that with the longer distance (3.75 Å, 1 b), on the o…

In Parts I and II, the structure of small-scale yielding fields of interface cracks were described in the context of small strain plasticity and J2 deformation theory. These fields are members of a family parameterized by the plastic phase angle ξ which also determines the shape or phase of the plastic zone. Through f…
