Abstract A series of azobenzene derivatives containing glycine, l-alanine, l-valine, l-leucine, and l-isoleucine were synthesized and their gelation properties were examined. Although the azobenzene derivatives containing glycine, l-alanine, and l-leucine exhibited very low gelation abilities, other compounds of l-iso…

The clay minerals in Podzols and podzolic soils developed under coniferous forests in the Subarctic and Cool-temperate zones are characterized by the predominance of smectite and/or mica-smectite interstratified minerals in the eluvial horizons and chlorite-vermiculite intergrade in the illuvial horizons. A large amou…

This work reports the effect of pH on the process of mullite formation from mixtures of alumina and silica sols. The pH of the mixtures determines the charges of particle surfaces and affects their interactions and distributions. Mullite formation from amorphous precursors with an Al:Si molar ratio of 1:3, prepared fr…

Analysis of polarization curves and impedance spectra has shown that the surface chemistry of galvanized steels plays an important role in determining their corrosion behavior. Zn-Ni samples that were untreated or had been treated in a 10 mM Ce(NO3)3 solution had the lowest corrosion rates in 0.5 N NaCl. The efficienc…

Halloysite template has a tubular microstructure; its wall has a multi-layer aluminosilicate structure. A new catalytic method is adopted here, through the in-situ reduction of Pd ions on the surface of tubular halloysite by methanol to initiate electroless plating; the detailed deposition features of Pd nanoparticles…

A novel polymer thin film embedded carbon nanotube (PECNT) sensor was developed for ultra-low-power micro thermal sensing. The basic fabrication process of this sensor includes AC electrophoretic manipulation of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) bundles on a silicon substrate and embedding them inside parylene C la…

The guanidinium chloride- and urea-induced unfolding of FprA, a mycobacterium NADPH-ferredoxin reductase, was examined in detail using multiple spectroscopic techniques, enzyme activity measurements and size exclusion chromatography. The equilibrium unfolding of FprA by urea is a cooperative process where no stabiliza…

In order to optimise the hot die processes of Ti–10V–2Fe–3Al alloy, the effects of forging processes on the microstructures and mechanical properties were studied and processing maps were used to try to aid the process design. The results show that processing maps for Ti–10V–2Fe–3Al alloy exhibit three process ranges,…

The association of the cationic dye indoheptamethine cyanine with various anionic dyes (four sulfonephthaleins and five xanthenes) in aqueous solutions was detected using the Vis-spectroscopic method. The values of the association constants are within the range (10(4) to 7×10(7) mol-1 L). In all the cases a substantia…

Abstract The interactions of hardness ions (i. e., Ca, Mg, Ba) with anionic polymeric scale inhibitors (SI) containing different functional groups has been investigated using a turbidity technique. It has been found that all SI tested form insoluble salts with hardness ions under the experimental conditions used (pH 7…

As a function of film orientation, the intrinsic effective piezoelectric coefficient e31,f is generally formulated for a substrate-constrained ferroelectric film. Numerical results are obtained for Pb(ZrxTi1−x)O3 (PZT) thin films with tetragonal and rhombohedral compositions. It is illustrated that the optimal orienta…
