The particle structure of polyvinyl chloride is controlled by the shear field imposed on the monomer droplet and the interfacial behavior of the vinyl chloride/water phases during polymerization. The inter facial tension in the presence of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) was measured as a function of concentratio…

Quercetin suppressed singlet molecular oxygen-dependent photobleaching of crocin in the presence of rose bengal as a photosensitizer. The suppression by quercetin concurred the transformation of quercetin to a compound which had an absorption maximum at about 330 nm. The rate of the transformation was slowed down by a…

n‐ and p‐type single crystals have been grown by the Bridgman‐Stockbarger method and characterized by their electronic transport properties. A photoelectrochemical study in aqueous media using the cleavage surface shows rectifying behavior in the dark, confirming diode behavior for both. electrodes exhibit anodic and…

The effect of high energy electron radiation on TFE copolymers of perfluoro(methyl vinyl ether) (PMVE) and perfluoro-3,6-dioxa-4-methyl-7-octene sulfonyl fluoride (PSEPVE) was studied. The PMVE copolymers were found to crosslink when irradiated as either a gum or as a compounded elastomer. Attempts to graft vinyl mono…

Abstract Crystallization of poly(tetrafluoroethylene) was observed by differential scanning calorimetry at constant cooling rates. A method for kinetic analysis of thermoanalytical data of nonisothermal crystallization was applied to analyze the data, and it was elucidated that poly(tetrafluoroethylene) crystallizes o…

Soviet carbon steel CT-3 plates were exposed in five different places in Havana and the city of Havana (rural, industrial-marine and marine stations). Weight loss was evaluated in periods of six and twelve months at different starting times. Salinity and SO2 concentration in the atmosphere were determined. Relative hu…

We have performed photoemission studies on samples of poorly crystallized MoS2 prepared in situ by thermal decomposition of (NH4)2MoS4 in a UHV-compatible chamber under mixed H2S/H2 gas conditions. The results reveal new electronic states which are not present on crystalline MoS2. These states are observed as a band t…

From a study of living materials and specimens in several regional herbaria, a list has been drawn up of all the common and several of the rarer tube-dwelling diatoms of eastern Canada. Descriptions, illustrations of living material and acid-cleaned valves, and a key to the species are provided. Most specimens were fr…

Abstract The decomposition of methyl formate to methanol and carbon monoxide was carried out in gaseous phase at 50–300 °C over alkaline earth metal oxides, Na/MgO, Al2O3, SrO/Al2O3, K/active carbon, and 13X-molecular sieves. The MgO catalyst pretreated at 1000 °C exhibited a high activity, the selectivity being 100%.…

We describe observations made with an optical microscope of the formation of two distinct types of disclinations during the shear of a small molecule nematic, MBBA. Once formed, these disclinations grow and deform in the shear field. We also report observations of the relaxation of these defects after the cessation of…

The influence of oxygen vacancies in PbZrO3 on the dielectric properties and phase transitions between the antiferroelectric, ferroelectric and paraelectric states has been investigated. Marked changes in dielectric parameters and in phase transition temperatures were found for the deficient samples. With increasing n…

We have examined the interaction of H2O vapor with three structurally different carbon surfaces. The edge and basal surface of crystalline graphite as well as a ‘‘paracrystalline’’ glassy carbon were characterized with LEED, UPS, and AES. Structural characterization by LEED showed the typical ‘‘ring’’ pattern for the…

Electrochemical polarization methods were utilized to study the galvanic corrosion of steel coupled to brass. Polarization of a 70Cu-30Zn brass cathode controlled galvanic corrosion rate (galvanic current) of the steel anode in the couple. The effect of cathode/anode surface area ratio was predicted successfully from…
