We present an atomic-level criterion for material stability in an atomic system. The criterion draws on the strong ellipticity condition in continuum elasticity theory; however, it is formulated directly in terms of atomic potential without resorting to the continuum concepts. Since the criterion is based on local ene…

In this work, we report a systematic study of the oxygen nonstoichiometry, high-temperature thermodynamics, and transport properties of the perovskite-related mixed conductor Sr 3 FeMO 6+ δ (M = Co, Ni). Thermogravimetry was used to determine the oxygen content change (6+δ) as a function of temperature ( T ) and equil…

Abstract In reverse micelle systems, a large enhancement of the oxidation ability of dilute nitric acid was discovered, and its oxidation mechanism was explored. The Br− ion in the surfactant, CTAB, was oxidized to Br2 (or Br3−) in the CHCl3/CTAB/H2O reverse micelle system with W = 1.0–4.0 by diluted nitric acid (0.25…

This paper elucidates the effects of nucleating agents on the foaming behavior of polypropylene (PP) foams blown with butane in extrusion. The cell density was controlled by varying the talc content, and foam expansion was observed at a fixed blowing-agent content while varying the melt and die temperatures. As observ…

The near-neutral pH environmentally assisted cracking (EAC) initiation and propagation behavior of X70 pipeline steel was investigated in NS4 solution deaerated with N2/5% carbon dioxide (CO2) under the low-frequency cyclic load. The test results show that an increase in the applied stress level promotes the crack ini…

It is well known that the cubic pyrochlore Bi1.5ZnNb1.5O7 exhibits higher permittivity and dielectric loss than monoclinic Bi2Zn2∕3Nb4∕3O7 due to structural disorder in the A sites of Bi1.5ZnNb1.5O7. We have studied systematically the impact of the ion substitution in the A site of monoclinic Bi2Zn2∕3Nb4∕3O7 on the st…
