"Smart Coatings" represent the state-of-the-art of coatings technology. This technology has evolved through three principal stages. In the first, an ingredient with valuable properties is added to a coatings formulation, and all the unique properties of the coating are attributable to this additive. In the second, a s…

Abstract In two specifically constructed rigid, proximate, “face‐to‐face” benzo/pyridazino systems (shortest π,π distances ca. 3 Å) photoequilibration with the photo[6+6]cycloadducts has been established by 254‐nm irradiation (ratios ca. 2:1). The failure to observe such “benzene/heteroarene” photodimers for different…

Abstract Y‐encapsulated Cu II –purine complexes were synthesized, characterized and studied in the catalytic oxidation of cyclohexene. Encapsulation was achieved by ion‐exchanging the complex from aqueous solutions containing both the purine ligand, 9‐methyl‐6‐(methylamino)purine, and copper, in different pH, with a p…

In this endeavour, near infrared spectroscopy studies show evidence of variable composition in aurichalcite minerals of zinc copper carbonate hydroxides. The observation of a broad feature in the electronic part of the spectrum around 11,500 cm −1 (870 nm) is a strong indication of Cu 2+ substitution for Zn 2+ in the…

Abstract The effect of microfillers on the thermal stability of natural rubber (NR), carboxylated styrene butadiene rubber (XSBR) latices, and their 70/30 NR/XSBR blend were studied using thermogravimetric method. Microcomposites of XSBR and their blend were found to be thermally more stable than unfilled samples. The…

We have explored the changes in the phase stability, orientational order, and dynamics of the nematic 4-cyano-4'-n-pentylbiphenyl (5CB) doped with either the trans or the cis form of different p-azobenzene derivatives using the ESR spin-probe technique. In particular, we have studied the effects induced by each of the…

This study examines the field-dependent hysteretic behavior of a magnetorheological (MR) fluid and its identification using a Preisach model. The field-dependent shear stress of a commercially available MR fluid is measured using a parallel disk rheometer, and its shear stress versus shear rate hysteretic behavior is…
