The reaction order with respect to TiCl 4 was investigated in the living polymerization of isobutylene (IB) initiated by 2-chloro-2,4,4-trimethylpentane (TMPCl)/TiCl 4 in hexane/methyl chloride (Hx/MeCl) 60/40 v/v cosolvents at −80 °C. It was found that the reaction is more complex than previously believed. The TiCl 4…

The reaction of Eu with molten lithium polyselenide produced a new rare-earth dichalcogenide, EuSe 2 . This compound cannot be obtained via direct combination of the elements and is therefore an example of how alkali metal chalcogenide fluxes can access metastable or kinetically stable phases. The crystals of EuSe 2 a…

Having in mind to produce electrically conductive carbon–epoxy composite materials, we have filled an insulating epoxy resin with an electronic conducting polymer, polypyrrole (PPy). To select the PPy that best suits this process, various PPys were chemically synthesized. The syntheses were performed in water via a di…

In the present study, low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and plasticized starch (PLST) blends, containing different percentages of PLST, were prepared. In these blends, two different polyethylene/maleic anhydride graft (PE-g-MA) copolymers containing 0.4 and 0.8 mol % anhydride groups, respectively, were added as compati…

We investigated the Rayleigh scattering of silica core optical fibers, parts of which were heat treated at various temperatures, in relation to their fictive temperatures (T(f)). The scattering intensities from short fiber segments were clearly reduced by heat treatment compared with those of the unheated parts. The T…

The photochromic pair 1,1‘-binaphthylpyran ( 1 ) and 2-hydroxy-2‘-hydroxymethyl-[1,1‘]-binaphthylene ( 2 ) was examined to assess suitability as optical triggers in a liquid crystal switch. Both 1 and 2 are chiral and they were resolved into enantiomers by HPLC. The absorption and circular dichroism spectra of optical…

To identify structural features important for low temperature activity in archaeal proteins, elongation factor 2 (EF-2) genes (aef2) were sequenced from psychrophilic, mesophilic and thermophilic methanogens. Scatter plots were used to compare evolutionary distances for EF-2 amino acid sequences vs. 16S-rRNA sequences…

The morphology and self-diffusion in thin films of asymmetric polystyrene- b -2-vinylpyridine (PS−PVP) diblock copolymers were investigated by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). An oscillatory depth profile of the PVP volume fraction is observed, implying a periodic arrangement of layers of PVP spherical domains…

1 H and 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxation studies of thiophenol-capped CdS nanocrystals are presented. The transverse and longitudinal relaxation times were investigated as a function of nanocrystal radius, and the transverse relaxation time was also studied as a function of temperature. Both proton and…
