Here, we investigate experimentally and theoretically the motion of spherical glass particles of radii 240-310 microm attached to a tetradecane-water interface. Pairs of particles, which are moving toward each other under the action of lateral capillary force, are observed by optical microscopy. The purpose is to chec…
A zinc(II) phthalocyanine-tin(IV) porphyrin dyad with a strong electronic coupling was synthesized and upon light excitation shown to exhibit ultra-fast, long-range electron transfer in a single step.
One of the prerequisites for the detailed understanding of heterogeneous catalysis is the identification of the dynamic response of the catalyst surface under variable reaction conditions. The present study of methanol oxidation on different model Ru pre-catalysts, performed approaching the realistic catalytic reactio…
Elementary mechanisms of electrochemical reactions that take place over solid oxide fuel cell electrodes are not well understood.We present a first-principles approach, combining density functional theory calculations and statistical thermodynamics, aimed at studying electrochemical surface reactions.We have utilized…
A series of spin transition (ST) iron(II) compounds of the type [FeII2](X)2.{S}2 (where is 4'-(4'''-cyanophenyl)-1,2':6'1''-bispyrazolylpyridine, X=ClO4- or BF4-, and S is acetonitrile) was synthesized and magnetically investigated. The effects of the removal of the lattice-solvent molecules and of their different pos…
Using phase field methods, we introduce a penalty formulation for restricting the support of solutions of the hydrodynamic Poisson-Nernst-Plank equations to evolving subregions of the domain. The formulation is derived through variational principles from a free energy involving the phase field and electrostatic energy…
Yellow-emitting a-SiAlON:Eu2+ phosphors were synthesized by the gas reduction and nitridation of a homogeneous oxide precursor in a CaO–Al2O3–SiO2–Eu2O3 system at 1400–1450 °C using an NH3–CH4 mixture gas as a reduction–nitridation agent. The precursor was prepared by a sol–gel process using a low-cost nitrate, tetrae…
Shape memory properties and martensitic transformation of Ti-Nb-Pt alloys were investigated in order to develop Ni-free biomedical superelastic alloys. The effect of Pt addition on the transformation strain was investigated by measuring the lattice constants of the parent and martensite phases of Ti-Nb-Pt alloys. The…
The low-temperature transition in the Zn–Sc 1/1 cubic approximant, reported by Tamura et al. [Phys. Rev. B 71 0902203 (2005)], has been confirmed by the following experimental evidence: (1) anomaly in temperature dependence of electrical resistivity at approximately 153 K, and (2) appearance of weak superlattice refle…
Three {Ru(p-cym)}(2+) (p-cym = p-cymene) derivatives of [Nb(6)O(19)](8-)-[Nb(6)O(19){Ru(p-cym)}](6-) (Nb(6)Ru(1)), trans-[Nb(6)O(19){Ru(p-cym)}(2)](4-) (t-Nb6Ru2), and [Nb(6)O(19){Ru(p-cym)}(4)] (Nb(6)Ru(4))--have been synthesized in water by reaction between [Ru(p-cym)Cl(2)](2) and the hexaniobate. In the solid state…
The most common fabrication technique of porous silicon (PS) is electrochemical etching of a crystalline silicon wafer in a hydrofluoric (HF) acid-based solution. The electrochemical process allows for precise control of the properties of PS such as thickness of the porous layer, porosity, and average pore diameter. T…
A study of the electrical properties and spatial distribution of the ZnO:Al (AZO) thin films prepared by dc magnetron sputtering at low deposition temperature was presented, with emphasis on the origin of the resistivity inhomogeneity across the substrate. Various growth conditions were obtained by manipulating the gr…
The microdispersed sintered nanodiamonds are evaluated as a new prospective stationary phase for normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography.
The cyclotriphosphazene P(3)N(3)Cl(6) reacts with six equivalents of DMAP (4-(dimethylamino)pyridine) in superheated chloroform to form crystals of composition [P(3)N(3)(DMAP)(6)]Cl(6).19CHCl(3) comprising [P(3)N(3)(DMAP)(6)](6+) ions, which host five chloride ions in basket-type cavities on either side of the ring an…
Two dispersion models of disordered solids, one parameterizing density of states (PDOS) and the other parameterizing joint density of states (PJDOS), are presented. Using these models, not only the complex dielectric function of the materials, but also some information about their electronic structure can be obtained.…
In this project, polyester microdenier and normal denier fibres and yarns were used to produce knitted fabrics. Microfibre fabrics showed excellent drapeability. The wicking behaviour of the microfibre fabrics was found to be better than that of the normal denier fabric. The water drop absorbency, drying rate and tota…
Morphological change of electrospun fiber with various solvent was conducted to figure out solvent effect on the surface of ethyl cellulose nanofiber. THF (bp 66 o C) and DMAc (bp 165 o C) binary solvent sys- tem was introduced and electrospinning was performed with different ratio of THF/DMAc including each pure solv…
Three water-borne polyurethane dispersions were synthesised by the pre-polymer mixing process. Different hard segment contents in the polyurethanes were obtained by varying the diisocyanate/macroglycol (NCO/OH) molar ratio. A decrease in the NCO/OH ratio produced an increase in the mean particle size and in the pre-po…
Nanoparticles of silver have been prepared by reduction of silver ions in the presence of polymer. In particular, silver nanoparticles were prepared by reduction of silver nitrate in ethanol in the presence of chemical reduction and poly [N-vinylpyrrolidone (PVP)] as a protective agent. The UV-visible spectrum of the…
An evolution has occurred with low-alloy steels and corrosion-resistant alloys to address corrosive oil and gas production needs. This evolution occurred because of the extensive laboratory and on-site testing and the significant potential for economic and fitness-for-purpose gains. These alloys have evolved with prim…
