A simple model is proposed to simulate contact angle hysteresis in drops on a planar surface. The model is based on assuming a friction force acting on the triple contact line in such a way that the contact line keeps fixed for contact angles comprised between the advancing angle and the receding one and is allowed to…

We have developed a new SERS substrate based on the reduction of silver nitrate in the presence of ZnS-capped CdSe quantum dots. This substrate showed higher sensitivities as compared to a hydroxylamine-reduced silver sol. On the basis of this new substrate, at-line SERS detection was coupled with capillary liquid chr…

Abstract A new technique to provide melt elasticity using flexible fine fibers prepared from a polymer with high melting point is demonstrated. A polymer composite of poly(propylene) with a small amount of fine fibers of poly(butylene terephthalate) shows marked strain‐hardening behavior in elongational viscosity, i.e…

The nonmetal cation polyborate salt of stoichiometry [H(2)en](2)[B(11)O(18)(OH)]·7H(2)O is obtained from the reaction of 1,2-diaminoethane and boric acid (1:5 ratio) in H(2)O/MeOH. An X-ray crystallographic study of the product reveals that the polyborate moiety is composed of two isolated hydrated polyborate anions:…

Superconductivity and ferromagnetism are two antagonistic cooperative phenomena, which makes it difficult for them to coexist. Here we demonstrate experimentally that they do coexist in EuFe₂(As(1-x)P(x))₂ with 0.2 ≤ x ≤ 0.4, in which superconductivity is associated with Fe 3d electrons and ferromagnetism comes from t…
