Abstract The easy, low‐cost modification of the polarity of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) and high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) through blending with oxidized Fischer–Tropsch wax was investigated. A 10 wt % concentration of the wax increased the polar component of the total surface free energy 10 times for LDPE and 4…

The evolution of the grain boundary character distribution (GBCD) of severely deformed commercial purity Zr was studied by experiment as well as computer simulation. The severe plastic deformation was performed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at 350°C using a die with 90°/20°. Through a repetitive operation,…

An experimental investigation of the free-radical high-temperature (>300 °C) polymerization of styrene/divinyl benzene in a steady-state continuous-stirred tank reactor is reported. Under these conditions, backbiting followed by β-scission, which is the dominant chain degradation mechanism, is very aggressive. This al…

We have produced and assembled palladium (Pd) nanoparticles in two-dimensional (2-D) periodic arrays in nanoscales by using block copolymer (BC) thin films as templates. A symmetric diblock copolymer of poly(methyl methacrylate)- block -poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PMMA- b -PHEMA) was coated on a Si-wafer by dip…

We establish, through coarse-grained computation, a connection between traditional, continuum numerical algorithms (initial value problems as well as fixed point algorithms), and atomistic simulations of the Larson model of micelle formation. The procedure hinges on the (expected) evolution of a few slow, coarse-grain…

We report atomistic studies of the deformation mechanisms in the crack tip region during low temperature fracture of bcc Fe single crystals. The large-scale simulations use empirical potentials to study the crack tip response. The twins are formed by the emission of partial dislocations in adjacent slip planes of the…

The Knoop hardness in (001)⟨110⟩ of high-purity synthetic type IIa diamond crystal synthesized under high pressure and high temperature is known to be extremely high. Knoop indenters were prepared from the synthetic type IIa diamonds by taking the tip orientation to the hard crystal orientation of the diamonds, i.e.,…

ABSTRACT While fatigue crack growth in vacuum may occur by slip alone, environmental fatigue including crack growth in air is strongly influenced by crack‐tip surface chemistry that adversely affects ductility. Cumulative diffusion, combined with adsorption and chemisorption in the loading half‐cycle may promote insta…

We report inelastic neutron scattering (INS) studies on a series of Mn(12) derivatives, [Mn(12)O(12)(O2CC6F5)16(H2O)4]z, in which the number of unpaired electrons in the cluster is varied. We investigated three oxidation levels: z = 0 for the neutral complex, z = -1 for the one-electron reduced species and z = -2 for…

We have performed total-energy electronic structure calculations to examine competing structures for the twin boundary, which can form under tensile stress along the c axis. The twin boundary structures are significantly different, most notably in their symmetry. These calculations show that, for all materials studied…

Abstract An in situ semibatch polymerization process for making phenolic resin/montmorillonite clay nanocomposites is developed. It is found that auxiliary mixing in phenol allows intercalation of the monomer and polymer between montmorillonite clay layers. At 2.7% clay by mass the montmorillonite is predominantly exf…
