Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) comprise 67% of total hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) that are emitted by major industrial point sources into the U.S. atmosphere (1). Adsorption by activated carbon fiber (ACF) has been recognized as one of the feasible regenerative control processes to separate and recover VOCs for…
Generalizing the mode-coupling theory for ideal liquid-glass transitions, equations of motion are derived for the correlation functions describing the glassy dynamics of a diatomic probe molecule immersed in a simple glass-forming system. The molecule is described in the interaction-site representation and the equatio…
Vanadosilicate V-SBA-1, which incorporated more than 4 wt % vanadium (Si/V < 20) in cubic mesoporous molecular sieves, was directly synthesized under strongly acidic conditions and characterized by various techniques. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed that the resultant samples had a well-ordered cubic SBA-1 struc…
Thermal stressing of a JP-8 fuel was carried out in an isothermal flow reactor using nickel, stainless steel (316 and 304), Silcosteel, and glass-lined stainless steel tubes at 500 °C wall temperature and 34 atm (500 psig) for 5 h at a liquid fuel flow rate of 1 mL/min. Different length segments along the sample tubes…
Montmorillonite/polyimide (3,3‘,4,4‘-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride - 4,4‘-oxydianiline, BTDA-ODA) nanocomposites displaying different morphological, thermal, and mechanical characteristics were synthesized by involving mono-, di-, and trifunctional group swelling-agent-modified montmorillonite and poly(amic…
Ferromagnetism and accompanying large negative magnetoresistance in Pb-substituted Bi-Sr-Co-O misfit-layer compound are investigated in detail. Recent structural analysis of (Bi,Pb)${}_2$Sr${}_{3}$Co${}_2$O${}_9$, which has been believed to be a Co analogue of Bi${}_2$Sr${}_2$CaCu${}_2$O${}_{8+δ}$, revealed that it ha…
The structure and density of Mo species in Mo/H−ZSM5 during catalytic CH 4 reactions was investigated using in-situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), temperature-programmed oxidation after reaction, and the isotopic exchange of D 2 with OH groups in H−ZSM5 before and after CH 4 reactions. These methods reveal that…
Poly( l -lysine)- g -poly(ethylene glycol) (PLL- g -PEG) is a member of a family of polycationic PEG-grafted copolymers that have been shown to chemisorb on anionic surfaces, including various metal oxide surfaces, providing a high degree of resistance to protein adsorption. PLL- g -PEG-modified surfaces are attractiv…
We have defined ferroic phase transitions as nondisruptive phase transitions involving a change of point-group symmetry. For transitions defined in this way a prototype symmetry can always be assigned or chosen. Ferroelectric phase transitions are a subset of ferroic transitions such that the ferroic phase belongs to…
Single-crystal variable temperature EPR, optical and polycrystalline magnetic susceptibility studies have been made on a novel six-coordinate Ag(II) complex. Temperature dependent EPR studies on pure single crystals of this compound reveal that dynamic Jahn-Teller distortion operates above 230 K, between 230 K and 120…
Three-dimensional Monte Carlo simulations of flexible and semiflexible polymer brushes at various grafting densities are carried out to study their equilibrium structure and attendant properties by using the bond fluctuation model. Our simulation results of long flexible polymer brushes are, in general, consistent wit…
Bis(alkylcyclopentadienyl)arenes have been prepared by sequential lithiation/alkylation of dibromoarenes with alkylcyclopenta-2-en-1-ones. The resulting dicarbinols were dehydrated with p -toluenesulfonic acid to give the bis(alkylcyclopentadienyl)arene. Poly(alkyl-1,1‘-ferrocenylenearylene)s were prepared by the reac…
Two experimental techniques, forward recoil spectrometry (FRES) and size exclusion chromatography with fluorescence detection (SEC/fluorescence), have been used to monitor independently the extent of reaction between model end-functional polymers at a PS/PMMA interface. Bilayer samples comprising a polystyrene layer c…
A polyester-type waterborne polyurethane (WPU) was synthesized with 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate (TDI), poly-1,4-butylene glycol adipate (PBA), and 2,2-bis-(hydroxylmethyl) propionic acid (DMPA). A series of compression-molded sheets coded as STPU were prepared by mixing thermoplastic starch (TPS) with the desired amount…
We report mesoscale regions with distinctive magnetic properties in epitaxial ${\mathrm{La}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{x}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ films which exhibit tunneling-like magnetoresistance across grain boundaries. By using temperature-dependent magnetic force microscopy we observe that the mesoscale region…
18S-RNA was analysed for 17 species from 8 genera of Scenedesmaceae sensu KOMAREK et FOTT (1983) and one strain of Coelastropsis (Coelastraceae) and Coelastrella (Scotiellaceae). According to the results a subfamily Desmodesmoideae was set up, the subgenera Acutodesmus and Scenedesmus were verified and Scenedesmus (Ke…
We study the equilibrium energies of two-dimensional (2D) noncoarsening fluid foams, which consist of bubbles with fixed areas. The equilibrium states correspond to local minima of the total perimeter. We present a theoretical derivation of energy minima; experiments with ferrofluid foams, which can be either highly d…
Nylon 11 coatings filled with nominal 0–15 vol % of nanosized silica or carbon black were produced using the high velocity oxy-fuel combustion spray process. The scratch and sliding wear resistance, mechanical, and barrier properties of nanocomposite coatings were measured. The effect of powder initial size, filler co…
Surfactant bilayers adsorbed on TS-1 zeolite were used as templates to produce colloidal nanocomposites with a polypyrrole (Ppy) shell. The adsorbed surfactant was cetylpyridinium chloride, and it plays a critical role for attaining both the colloidal stability of the nanocomposites and an enhanced conductivity of the…
A series of eight ${\mathrm{AMnO}}_{3}$ perovskites in which the A-cation sites are occupied by a distribution of 70% trivalent lanthanide and 30% divalent Ca, Sr, or Ba ions has been prepared. These all have a mean A-cation radius of 1.20 \AA{}, but different values of the size variance ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}^{2}.$ A…
