Ultraviolet (UV) blocking filters are needed for atomic flux imaging in environments where high levels of ultraviolet radiation are present. Freestanding gratings are a promising candidate for UV filtering. They have a high aspect ratio (∼13), narrow (∼40 nm) slots, and effectively block UV radiation. The grating fabr…
The low frequency (LF) dielectric constant was studied as a function of temperature in the Schiff 's base liquid crystalline compounds of N (p - n -alkoxybenzylidene)- p - n -alkylanilines with the applied field parallel to the director to determine the phase transition temperatures and the underlying dipolar associat…
A surface reaction model for the catalyzed reaction A+(12)B2→AB is studied by means of Monte Carlo simulations. Motivated by experiments on the catalytic oxidation of CO on certain Pt surfaces; i.e., A≡CO, B2≡O2, and AB≡CO2; it is assumed that the catalyst surface undergoes reactant’s induced reversible phase transiti…
Abstract Binary blends of two random copolymers, ethylene‐vinyl‐alcohol (EVOH) consisting of different ethylene contents, and copolyamide‐6/6.9 with an approximate 1:1 comonomer ratio, have been prepared via blown film extrusion as films, 20 μm thick. Thermal, dynamic‐mechanical, and rheological properties were determ…
Single crystals of quaternary solid solution compositions of A-site filled tungsten bronze-type α(Ba1−xSrx)Nb2O6:β(Na1−yKy)NbO3 (where α:β=2:1, 9:2, x=0.75, 0.60, and y=0.50, 0.40, and 0.25) have been grown by the laser heated pedestal growth technique, both along the a axis and the c axis. The crystal growth studies,…
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Many magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) agents are Gd(III)-based; its half-filled f-shell has an S-ground state and hence a long electronic relaxation time, leading to comparably large effects on 1/T1 and 1/T2 of water protons with no shift in the water-proton resonance frequency. 1/T1 and 1/T2…
This paper describes a novel way to prepare the ternary phase Ti 3 SiC 2 in a single‐step procedure that we call electron‐beam‐ignited solid‐state reaction (EBI‐SSR). The preparation route is discussed by means of an isothermal section of the Ti‐Si‐C phase diagram. Properties such as the Vickers hardness and the elect…
A series of planned tritium release experiments into the Tritium Systems Test Assembly (TSTA) tritium processing rooms (3000 m3), were performed under the US-Japan collaboration program at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). These experiments were carried out to acquire data on the behavior of tritium in an actual…
Solid‐state reactions between thin films of nickel oxide (NiO) that had been grown on four different orientations of alpha‐alumina (alpha‐Al 2 O 3 ), each with an intermediate layer of spinel, have been studied by using electron microscopy. The starting reaction geometry consists of a nickel aluminate (NiAl 2 O 4 ) bu…
A microcalorimetric technique has been developed to measure crystal-growth kinetics and enthalpies of crystallization. The enthalpy of crystallization of hen egg-white lysozyme in 0.1 M acetate buffer at pH 4.6 was determined at 287 K using this technique. The enthalpies were directly measured to be -14.3 +/- 2.0 and…
In recent years, considerable attention has been focused on polymer miscibility and Complexation due to hydrogen bonding. Monodisperse, proton-donating polystyrene (PS), that is, poly{styrene-co-[p-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)styrene]} [PS(t-OH)], was synthesized via chemical modification of polystyrene. Poly[n-butyl methac…
Addition of tungsten to duplex stainless steels (DSS) is known to suppress formation of the brittle secondary phases that may have a negative effect on general corrosion and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) properties. The effects of tungsten addition to DSS on microstructural, electrochemical, and SCC properties were…
Applying the augmented spherical wave method, the Heusler alloy Fe3-x Mn x Si is studied for integer values of x where it forms fairly well ordered intermetallic compounds. In our calculation we allow for non-collinear spin ordering. It is found that the magnetic ground state changes from a ferromagnet for Fe3Si to a…
This study compared the estimated weight lifted for 1-RM and actual 1-RM bench press weight for untrained women using 3 common regression equations. Regression analysis was also used to develop an equation for estimating max bench press strength using the relationship of a 1-RM bench press measure with performance var…
The radial dynamics of a spherical gas bubble in a compressible shear-thinning liquid is studied by means of a singular perturbation method to first order in the bubble-wall Mach number. The Williamson rheological model is adopted to describe the shear-thinning characteristic of liquid viscosity. The equation of motio…
Abstract The colored form of photochromic 1,2-bis(5-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-3-thienyl)hexafluorocyclopentene was resolved into enantiomers by HPLC. The absolute stereochemistry of an enantiomer was determined on its bis(4-chlorobenzoate). The CD spectra and optical rotation of the resolved colored form were measured.
Ultrasonic enhanced chemical reactors have been used for decades. Cavitation, which results in dramatic increases in temperature and pressure, is responsible for the chemical and physical effects of ultrasound. Presented is a new model, which enables the calculation of linear three-dimensional pressure fields in any s…
We used small angle x-ray scattering to study interparticle structural properties of polyamidoamine starburst dendrimers (PAMAM, with an ethylenediamine central core) in methanol solutions. We have explored the intensity profiles for solutions of starbursts of different generations $(g=2,3.5,4)$ at various concentrati…
Extrusion foaming by injection of inert gases (carbon dioxide, nitrogen, argon) in the polymer melt is increasingly finding applications for a wide variety of resins, competing with chemical blowing agents, volatile organic compounds or microcellular foaming. The molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of t…
Electron crystallography is a powerful tool for the quantitative structural characterization of substances that preferentially form thin microcrystals. Because multiple-beam dynamical scattering may cause observed diffraction intensities to deviate significantly from their kinematical values, it is necessary to demons…
