Cavitation generated by DYNAJET ® cavitating jets can greatly enhance various chemical reactions, oxidize aqueous compounds, and disrupt microorganisms. Controlled laboratory experiments have established the ability of these jets to destroy microorganisms and oxidize a broad range of compounds including pesticides, Vo…

Using a multiple-point sheet sensor (MSS), load and contact area were directly measured for compression of four different foods. The MSS provided temporal and spatial changes in stress applied on the sample surface during the testing. The sum of load value detected by the MSS corresponded to the load measured by a uni…
The effect of plasma components on the temperature-dependent content release property of thermosensitive liposomes has been described. Temperature-sensitive liposomes containing mitomycin C (MMC) were prepared from dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC liposomes) and a 7 : 3 mixture of DPPC and dipalmitoylophosphatidyl…
Abstract A series of triblock co‐polymers, consisting of a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) central block joined to two blocks of random p ‐dioxanone‐ co ‐ L ‐lactide copolymers were synthesized by ring‐opening polymerization of p ‐dioxanone (PDO) and L ‐lactide (LLA) initiated by PEG in the presence of stannous 2‐ethylhex…
Carbon buckypaper was investigated with respect to field-emission properties and long-term stability, especially under well-defined stress conditions. The carbon buckypaper field emitters showed a threshold field strength of about 1 V μm−1 for an emission current of 1 nA. Field-emission current densities of more than…
Abstract On the basis of a quantum‐statistical approach to the electrical conductivity of nonideal plasmas we derive analytical results in the classical low‐density regime, in the degenerate Born limit, and for the contribution of the Debye‐Onsager relaxation effect. These explicit results are used to construct an imp…
The ultrastructure of the male gametes of two centric diatom species, Coscinodiscus wailesii and Chaetoceros laciniosus, is described. The species differ in the presence and configuration of certain organelles and structures, e.g. chloroplasts, Golgi bodies and microtubules (MTs), but both display a deviant configurat…
We examined the evolution of the oxidation state and atomic structure of V in nanophase V 2 O 5 aerogel and ambigel cathodes under in situ conditions using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). We show that the oxidation state of V in V 2 O 5 aerogel and ambigel cathodes heated under vacuum (100 μTorr) at 220°C for 16…
Ion-exchange of ZSM-5-type zeolites with copper ion was carried out by three different methods to obtain information on the states and roles of the effective sites for NO decomposition and N2 adsorption activity of copper-ion-exchanged ZSM-5-type zeolites (CuZSM-5). The first method of preparation is chemical vapour d…
A bis(alkyl) substituted, asymmetric polyoxometalate [[CH3(CH2)3]4N]4[[CH3(CH2)11Si]2OSiW11O39], was prepared and incorporated into monolayer and multilayer thin films using Langmuir-Blodgett techniques.
This study investigates the potential of Pluronics for the formulation of tetrapyrrole-based photosensitizers, with a particular focus on B-ring benzoporphyrin derivatives. The B-ring derivatives have a high tendency to aggregate in aqueous solutions, and this poses a significant formulation problem. Pluronics are ABA…
Microstructures and mechanical properties of porosity-graded Ti compacts were investigated in this study. To fabricate the porosity-graded compacts, Ti powders with three different particle sizes, 65, 189 and 374 μm were prepared by the plasma rotating electrode process (PREP) and the gas atomization process, and thes…

The performance of solid-oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) with Cu-ceria yttria-stabilized zirconia anodes in n -butane at 973 K has been studied as a function of fuel conversion. In order to simulate the local anode environment at high fuel utilization, n -butane was oxidized with in a separate reactor before sending the fuel…
Al-Cu-Fe alloys were prepared by mechanical alloying starting from elemental powders in a high-energy planetary ball mill. Three different alloy compositions with the same c Cu : c Fe ratio of 2:1 but different aluminium contents, that is Al55Cu30Fe15, Al63Cu25Fe12 and Al70Cu20Fe10, were investigated. A sequence of so…
In order to improve the environmental resistance of a polymer-derived SiC-fiber-reinforced SiC matrix composite (SiC/SiC composite), allylhydridopolycarbosilane (AHPCS) was utilized as the matrix precursor with Tyranno-SATM fiber. AHPCS showed higher densification efficiency in both intra- and interbundle areas than p…
Geometrical considerations combined with detailed atomic modeling are used to define general classes of diamond/carbon nanotube interface structures with low residual stresses and no unsatisfied bonding. Chemically and mechanically robust interfaces are predicted, supporting recent experimental studies in which struct…
Differences in molecular properties of celluloses from different biological origins were investigated chiefly in terms of the rheological properties of their solutions in 8 wt % LiCl/N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc). Cotton linter (CC) and dissolving pulp (DP) were used as cellulose samples derived from plant, and a cell…
This article studies the scattering of electromagnetic waves by a nonmagnetic biperiodic structure. The structure consists of anisotropic optical materials and separates two regions with constant dielectric coefficients. The time harmonic Maxwell equations are transformed to an equivalent strongly elliptic variational…
