Abstract In this study, the effect of clay and its dispersion state on the cell morphology and foaming behavior of chemically crosslinked polyethylene (PE) foams were examined. In addition, the effect of foaming process on the clay morphology was also considered. It was shown that the morphology of the clay before the…

Abstract State of dispersion of purified multiwall carbon nanotubes (p‐MWNT) in the presence of neutralized MWNT (n‐MWNT) in aqueous solution was assessed through UV–Visible spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering measurements, and solution experiments. Raman spectroscopic analysis revealed that debundling of p‐MWNT in…

Lieber den Fünfring: Die Addition von Palladium(II) und einem Hydroxidion an eine C-C-Doppelbindung, gefolgt von β-Eliminierung und cheletroper Extrusion von Kohlenmonoxid in Konkurrenz mit einer 1,2-Hydrid-Verschiebung führt zur Verengung einer p-Phenylen- zu einer Cyclopentadien-Einheit. So entsteht ein 21-Carbaporp…

We report the first synthesis of hyperbranched polyacetals via a melt transacetalization polymerization process. The process proceeds via the self-condensation of an AB 2 type monomer carrying a hydroxyl group and a dimethylacetal unit; the continuous removal of low boiling methanol drives the equilibrium toward polym…

Using a high-pressure technique, we have successfully synthesized (Ca(3)Al(2)O(5-y))(Fe(2)Pn(2)) (Pn = As and P), the first iron-based superconductors with the perovskite-based "32522" structure to be reported. The transition temperature (T(c)) is 30.2 K for Pn = As and 16.6 K for Pn = P. The emergence of superconduct…

Binary mixtures of ultrasoft colloids and linear polymer chains were investigated by small-angle neutron scattering and liquid state theory. We show that experimental data can be described by employing recently developed effective interactions between the colloid and the polymer chains, in which both components are mo…

We extend the results from the first part of this series of two papers by examining hyperuniformity in heterogeneous media composed of impenetrable anisotropic inclusions. Specifically, we consider maximally random jammed (MRJ) packings of hard ellipses and superdisks and show that these systems both possess vanishing…

We study superlattices with alternate stacking of graphene and boron nitride monolayers. We propose several candidate stacking sequences of the superlattices, and optimize their geometries based on the energetics in the framework of the density functional theory. From the total energies of the superlattices with the c…
