Nanometer-sized coaxial cables with a single-crystal ZnS core and a thin amorphous SiO2 shell were synthesized by simple thermal evaporation in vacuum. As-fabricated ZnS/SiO2 nanocables were studied using scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The ZnS/SiO2 nanocables have…
Abstract Tri(acryloyloxyethyl)phosphate (TAEP) and di(acryloyloxyethyl)ethyl phosphate (DAEEP) were used as reactive‐type flame‐retardant monomers along with commercial epoxy acrylate and polyurethane acrylate oligomers in ultraviolet (UV)‐curable resins. The concentrations of the monomers were varied from 17 to 50 wt…
Abstract Organophilic montmorillonite (MMT) was prepared by ion exchange between Na + ions in the clay and twin benzyldimethyloctadecylammonium bromine cations in an aqueous medium. The organophilic MMT particles were easily dispersed and swollen in styrene monomer. Polystyrene–MMT nanocomposites were prepared by the…
We have investigated the absorption of cyclohexane vapor into polystyrene films and the resulting polymer interdiffusion that is enabled by this process. The swelling of films due to solvent absorption was relatively insensitive to the film thickness or polymer molecular weight but increased with increasing temperatur…
Magnetic nanobelts of iron-doped zinc oxide were fabricated by vapor–phase transport using zinc oxide, iron oxide, and graphite as source materials. The nanobelts grew mainly along [101¯0] orientation and enclosed by ±(0001) and ±(1¯21¯0) surfaces. The measurements of x-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive x-ray spectro…
We describe a nonpolarizing filter design at oblique incidence and a polarizing filter design at normal incidence that use a uniaxially anisotropic layer. The phase thicknesses and the optical admittances of the layers are compensated for by the birefringent properties of a thin film at oblique incidence. This concept…
In this paper we report the experimental observations of the effects of various surfactants on the oscillations of the ferroin-catalyzed Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction. The oscillations are followed by observing the change in absorbance at 510 nm due to ferroin in a well-stirred closed BZ reacting system. We have…
Abstract The present work studies single screw extrusion processing for different systems of natural fiber reinforced thermoplastics. In the present study the mechanisms of fiber organization and fiber degradation have been investigated. The polymer matrix employed has been high density polyethylene (HDPE) with an MFI…
Abstract Chemically modified cellulose microbeads are useful as cosmetic materials. Cellulose microbeads as supports, prepared by a viscose‐phase‐separation method, are monodisperse and spherical. However, cellulose shows only slight hydrophilicity, even though it has three hydroxyl groups per pyranose ring, because c…
Abstract Isotactic polypropylene/organoclay nanocomposites were prepared by a solution methodology and characterized by structural, morphological, and mechanical analysis. X‐ray and microscopic analyses (SEM) have revealed a homogeneous dispersion of the nanoclay in the iPP matrix and good adhesion between the two pha…
The accuracy and the usefulness of density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations for the theoretical study of Ln (La, Eu, Lu) complexes have been investigated. The geometries calculated at the DFT level for [Ln(H2O)nL]3+ complexes have been successfully compared wit…
Abstract This article reports the effect of the mixing process on the electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness of nickel/acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) composites. Nickel in either powder or filament form was used as the filler material. It was mixed with ABS by two mixing processes: one was t…
Abstract Polyethylene (PE)/maleic anhydride grafted PE ( g ‐PE)/expanded graphite (EG) electrically conductive nanocomposites were successfully prepared by solution intercalation (SI) and masterbatch melt mixing (MMM). Electrical conductivity (σ) measurements; transmission electron, scanning electron, and optical misc…
Blue-emitting, cubic phase CdSe nanorods with an approximate diameter of 2.5 nm and lengths up to 12 nm have been synthesized at low temperature (100 degrees C) in a single surfactant using a single-source molecular precursor. Transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering measurements indicate that the…
Abstract From D , L ‐lactic acid and with 0.5 wt % stannous chloride (SnCl 2 ) as a catalyst under an absolute pressure of 70 Pa and at 165–170°C, poly( D , L ‐lactic acid) (PDLLA) with an intrinsic viscosity of 0.2302 dL/g was synthesized after 10 h of melt polycondensation. This directly produced PDLLA was systemati…
The nonlinear optical and time-resolved properties of a series of phenylazomethine-porphyrin dendrimers are reported. The linear optical properties were also investigated, and the efficiency of the energy transfer process was obtained. Measurements were also carried out with the basic building-block molecules. The pro…
Limited experimental resolution is a unavoidable feature in macromolecular crystallography: it may hinder or make difficult the determination of the crystal structure. A novel procedure is presented which from an approximate electron-density map extrapolates the moduli and phases of non-measured reflections beyond and…
Biogenic microcapsules comprised of l -α-dimyristoyl phosphatitic acid (DMPA)/human serum albumin (HSA) were prepared by stepwise adsorption of DMPA/HSA multilayers onto charged colloids and subsequent dissolution of the colloidal cores. The properties of both lipid/protein modified particles and the hollow capsules w…
Abstract Following previous work on the compatibilization of organic–inorganic hybrids through coupling reactions with the precursor components, the present study evaluates the relative efficiency of different types of coupling agents on the morphology and properties of epoxy–silica hybrids. In particular, this invest…
Inertial cavitation has been implicated as the primary mechanism for a host of emerging applications. In all these applications, the main concern is to induce cavitation in perfectly controlled locations in the field; this means specifically to be able to achieve the cavitation threshold at the geometrical focus of th…
