To enhance the compatibility of polypropylene (PP) with sericite–tridymite–cristobalite (STC), polypropylene was irradiated by low-energy ultraviolet (UV) irradiation within 2.5 h to introduce the oxygen-containing groups onto the PP chains. From blending the UV-irradiated polypropylene with STC, the effects of the co…

In this study, the viscoelastic and morphological properties of molded foams were investigated to determine the influence of varying the concentration of diethanolamine (DEOA), a commercially utilized crosslinking agent. FTIR and WAXS analyses showed that DEOA had a disrupting effect on the bidentate hydrogen bonding…

Nanoscopic conducting polypyrrole powder was prepared in an oil/water microemulsion with FeCl3 as a dopant. Compared with solution and conventional emulsion polymerizations, a microemulsion polymerization system increases the yield of the resultant polypyrrole. The results of FTIR spectra and thermal analysis studies…

This article describes the compatibility of two semicrystalline polymers, poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA). The compatibility of the PCL/PLLA blends was enhanced by the compatibilizing effect of the poly(l,l-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) [P(lLA-co-εCL)]. A discussion details the effect of the con…

We show that single-crystalline Sr3Ru2O7 grown by a floating-zone technique is an isotropic paramagnet and a quasi-two dimensional metal as spin-triplet superconducting Sr2RuO4 is. The ground state is Fermi liquid with very low residual resistivity (3 micro ohm cm for in-plane currents) and a nearly ferromagnetic meta…

We suggest a random field based model for calculation of physical properties of mixed ferroelectric relaxors. Our model naturally incorporates the different orientations of electric dipoles (related to different solid solution components) as well as the contribution of nonlinear and correlation effects of random field…

A nonlinear description of the interaction of charged particles penetrating a solid has become of basic importance in the interpretation of a variety of physical phenomena. Here we develop a many-body theoretical approach to the quadratic decay rate, energy loss, and wake potential of charged particles moving in an in…

We present a first principles account of Bloch Walls on the basis of relativistic Spin-Density Functional Theory in the Local Density Approximation (LDA). We argue that calculations based on this description will provide useful and novel informations about the physics of this important element of micro-magnetics. To i…

The possibility of bonding clean diamond surfaces covalently in ultrahigh vacuum is investigated by molecular dynamics simulations based on a tight binding model. Our simulations predict that strong covalent bonding is possible for C(001)-2×1 surfaces. C(111)-2×1 surfaces will bond very weakly and debond already at mo…

Der dünnstmögliche Bor-Polymerstrang liegt in LiBx vor (0.82<x<1.0, siehe Bild) und lässt sich durch die beiden mesomeren Fromeln=[B−=]nB−= und −[B− beschreiben. Die Struktur von LiBx besteht aus einer Anordnung solcher „Bordrähte”︁ in einer Lithiummatrix. Jedes Boratom trägt zudem eine negative Ladung und ist somit i…

A new class of saturated hydrocarbons, in which a spiropentane-type unit is bound by a cyclic hydrocarbon, has been investigated by using ab initio molecular orbital calculations at the B3-LYP and MP2 levels. These molecules have been given the trivial name hemispiroalkaplanes. Hemialkaplanes, which are analogous mole…

It is found that an icosahedral quasicrystalline phase is directly formed in a Zr80Pt20 binary alloy during rapid solidification from the melt. The size of the icosahedral particles lies in the diameter range below 10 nm, and the particles are distributed homogeneously. The formation of the nanoscale icosahedral phase…

The surface Debye temperature of the NiMnSb (100) epitaxial films has been obtained using low energy electron diffraction, inverse photoemission, and core-level photoemission. The normal dynamic motion of the (100) surface results in a value for the effective surface Debye temperature of 145±13 K. This is far smaller…
