Abstract Apatite-dolomite carbonatite at Lesnaya Varaka, Kola Peninsula, Russia, hosts intricate mineral intergrowths composed of lueshite in the core and pyrochlore-group minerals in the rim. Lueshite is a primary Nb-bearing phase in the carbonatite and ranges in composition from cerian lueshite to almost pure NaNbO…
Short bamboo fiber reinforced epoxy composites have been developed with varying fiber length. The chemical resistance tests indicate that the composite materials are resistant to acetic acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, ammonia, benzene, carbon tetrachloride and toluene. The var…
The shape memory effect and superelastic behaviour occur by the nucleation and growth of microstructure during a thermoelastic martensitic transformation. A constrained geometrically nonlinear theory is used to construct the twinned martensite, austenite-martensite, wedge, triangle, and diamond microstructures. The la…
Solid-state crystal−crystal transformations in polymers are limited by conformational and steric constraints when helical hands are involved in the initial, final, or both stages of the transformation. The constraints are illustrated by (a) the phase II to phase I transformation in isotactic poly(1-butene), which pres…
A strain of Pseudomonas stutzeri coded 1317 isolated from oil-contaminated soil was found to grow well in glucose and soybean oil as a sole carbon source, respectively. Polyhydroxyalkanoates containing medium chain length monomers of hydroxyalkanoates ranging from C6 to C14 were synthesized up to 52% of cell dry weigh…
Fluoro substitution in thermotropic liquid crystals provides a general way of modifying the properties of a parent system. Melting point, transition temperatures, mesophase types and other physical properties are affected by fluoro substitution so that frequently the behaviour of the parent compound can be manipulated…
Abstract Microcellular polystyrene foams have been prepared using supercritical carbon dioxide as the foaming agent. The cellular structures resulting from this process have been shown to have a significant effect on the corresponding mechanical properties of the foams. Compression tests were performed on highly expan…
Simple methods are presented for handling, mounting, storage and transportation of crystals at cryogenic temperatures. They are easy to learn and have a number of technical and operational advantages over currently popular methods. In particular, the temperature of the crystal throughout all manipulations is known; it…
Oxidation experiments using a particular grade of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite have allowed observation of large numbers of both monolayer and multilayer etch pits on the same samples, formed under identical conditions. Scanning tunneling microscopy was used to measure pits produced after various etch times, tem…
The effects of a sorption-controlled, monolayer-forming surfactant on a drop deforming in an extensional flow are studied numerically. Scaling arguments are presented for drops of 1 cm and 1 µm, indicating the applicability of these results. For all simulations, when mass transfer is slow compared to surface convectio…
The order-disorder transitions in Cu-Al-Mn shape-memory alloys have been studied experimentally by means of calorimetric techniques. Results are compared with Monte Carlo simulations of a simplified Blume-Emery-Griffiths model. A first order ${\mathrm{DO}}_{3}\ensuremath{\rightleftharpoons}A2$ transition is obtained f…
Quantum size effects can be used to modify material properties on the nanometer scale. This has yet to be extensively studied in organic materials. Here a simple generic preparation of stable organic nanocrystals embedded in sol-gel glasses is reported. The Figure shows a transmission electron bright field image of 4,…
The linear viscoelasticity of miscible blends of a random copolymer of 80% styrene and 20% acrylonitrile and poly(methyl methacrylate) has been investigated using oscillatory shear. The Flory−Huggins interaction parameter of this blend is weakly negative. The glass transitions of the pure components are very close (Δ…

A new experimental technique has been developed for the performance of high temperature, high-strain-rate experiments in the compression Kolsky bar (split-Hopkinson pressure bar or SHPB). The new technique (referred to as the High-Temperature Compression Kolsky Bar or HTCKB) uses an infra-red spot-heater to rapidly he…

Diamond is a unique material with several outstanding physical and chemical properties. It has the highest thermal conductivity at room temperature and it is transparent from the UV to the far IR. Furthermore it has the highest hardness, the highest Young's modulus and it is chemically inert and radiation hard. These…
The addition of zero-valent copper to the self-condensing vinyl polymerization (SCVP) of novel AB* (meth)acrylic monomers using atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) catalyst systems has allowed for their successful polymerization. Polymerization under homogeneous and heterogeneous catalyst conditions without ad…
The fundamental physical phenomena on which LEEM is based are discussed, with the goal of showing why LEEM works, not how it works. The subjects covered include intensity, resolution, contrast, sampling depth and combination possibilities with other techniques (particularly LEED) which make LEEM a unique surface imagi…
The phase behavior of a styrene–isoprene (SI) diblock copolymer, with block molecular weights of 1.1 × 104 and 2.1 × 104 g/mol, respectively, is examined in the neutral solvent bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DOP) and the styrene-selective solvent di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP). DBP is a good solvent for PS, but is near a th…
