What are the mechanisms leading to the shape relaxation of three dimensional crystallites ? Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of fcc clusters show that the usual theories of equilibration, via atomic surface diffusion driven by curvature, are verified only at high temperatures. Below the roughening temperature, the rela…

The chemistry of silicones is summarized by following the steps necessary to produce a two-part, platinum-cured silicone containing vinyl-stopped polydimethylsiloxane, Si-H-on-chain siloxane, platinum catalyst and catalyst inhibitor. The process begins with silicon dioxide and follows the steps of conversion to sand t…

Poly(methyl methacrylate)–clay composites were synthesized through free-radical solution polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of clay that was preintercalated with dodecylammonium or hexadecyltrimethylammonium ions. Neither the diffraction peak from the (001) plane nor the 00l reflections for the (001…

In order to check our physical model for partial discharges (PDs) in a tree channel, the light emission from a PD in an actual tree was observed. The experimental results agreed with the model. By using the model, conditions for the formation of typical phase-amplitude-number (ϕ- q - n ) pattern of PDs from treeing wa…

The heterogeneous photodegradation of tetrachloroethene in air proceeded on clay particles (halloysite) under photoillumination (>300 nm) with an induction period. The induction period and the tetrachloroethene removal rate were not sensitive to the tetrachloroethene partial pressure or the relative humidity. The phot…

The physicochemical properties of shark type I collagen gel and membrane were not same as those of pig type I collagen. The denaturation temperature of shark collagen gel was about 15 degrees C lower. According to scanning electronic micrography, the diameter of shark collagen fibril was relatively thin and more homog…

A detailed analysis of the microstructural properties of nanocrystalline cerium(IV) oxide powders produced by thermal dehydration of two hydrated ceria precipitated from the ceric ammonium and sulfate salts in ammonia solutions is described. In addition, it is shown that the diffraction pattern of hydrated ceria can b…

A dipolar two-dimensional multifunctional (D-π) 3 -A dye molecule, 2,4,6-tris(4-( N -methyl- N -hexadecylamino)styryl)pyrylium tetrafluoroborate (P 3 ) was synthesized. The dye molecule was successfully transferred onto an ITO electrode or quartz by the Langmuir−Blodgett (LB) technique. The second-harmonic generation…

When the electrode separation is long or the applied voltage is low, the tree cannot directly grow to the plane electrode, and extinction of partial discharge (PD) with the re-growth of new channels can be observed after a long time. Before PD extinction, the light emission of the PD changes from the whole tree struct…

This review provides coverage of a variety of polysiloxane homopolymers and copolymers, and some related materials. Specific systems include (i) linear siloxane polymers [-SiRR'O-] (with various alkyl and aryl R and R' side groups), (ii) sesquisiloxane polymers possibly having a ladder structure, (iii) siloxane-silary…

The γ-radiolytic reduction of Hg 2+ in aqueous solution in the presence of 0.3 M 2-propanol first leads to Hg 2 2+ (ε 237 nm = 3.2 × 10 4 M -1 cm -1 ), and later to colloidal mercury. When the reduction is carried out in the presence of colloidal gold nanoparticles, Hg 2 2+ does not appear as an intermediate, and Hg 2…

The low-frequency acoustic breathing modes in Au−Pb core−shell nanoparticles have been studied by time-resolved spectroscopy. The frequency of the breathing mode was determined for a series of samples with a 47 nm diameter Au core and Pb shells of different thickness. The measured frequencies decrease with increasing…

This review examines surface alignment of liquid crystals by exposure to light. Two distinct effects are discussed: illumination with polarized light induces a surface anisotropy to an alignment layer and hence a preferred in-plane orientation of the overlying liquid crystal director. Alternatively, a photochemical re…

The use of DAB-Am-64 amine dendrimer as a single-molecule template to produce mesoporous cavities in silica sol−gels is reported. The method is meant to afford the synthesis of spheroidal cavities and is likely to enjoy generality, since there are a number of dendritic molecules commercially available today. X-ray dif…

Exposure to ultrasonic acoustic waves can greatly enhance various chemical reactions. Ultrasonic acoustic irradiation of organic compounds in aqueous solution results in oxidation of these compounds. The mechanism producing this behavior is the inducement of the growth and collapse of cavitation bubbles driven by the…
