A basic problem in spreading of a Newtonian liquid is the hydrodynamic description of the viscous energy dissipation near the moving contact line. With a sharp wedge profile, the braking force becomes infinite (divergence problem), implying that a drop is unable to spread on a solid surface, due to an infinite braking…

The effect of pressure on NO x emission during char particle combustion was examined in chemical-reaction control and diffusion control regimes. A fixed bed was used for batch testing under 0.1−1.6 MPa. It was found that with increasing pressure, NO x emission decreased extremely, when char combustion rate was control…

A rational synthesis for dibenzo[fg,op]naphthacene derivatives (also named as dibenzopyrene) is described. The methodology involves the preparation of a quaterphenyl using a palladium-catalysed cross-coupling of arylboronic acids followed by chemical or photochemical cyclization. The versatility of the process is show…

The stationary points on the potential energy surfaces (PES) of cobalt oxide clusters were studied by the density functional theory, with the B1LYP exchange-correlation functional. A number of local minima were detected on the doublet, quartet, and sextet PES of CoO n ( n = 1−4) and the singlet, triplet, and quintet P…

Abstract Silicon‐methoxide‐containing modified clays were obtained through cationic exchange between the sodium clay and the ammonium cation of [3‐(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]octadecyldimethylammonium chloride (Si18). The nanocomposites were prepared through bulk polymerization of styrene in which the Si18 clay was disper…

Crystal-nucleation phenomena of supercooled liquid o-benzylphenol are studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). While crystallization proceeds with crystal nucleation and growth processes, only the latter process can be observed calorimetrically. Whether there exist crystal nuclei in the supercooled liquid o…

An electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) study of photoexcited colloidal InP quantum dots (QD) shows the formation of electron and hole adducts. An EPR signal at g = 0.58 is assigned to a nonradiative hole trap that does not form immediately upon illumination, but forms only after the illuminated sample ages and becom…

The dielectric relaxation behavior of miscible poly(4-vinylphenol)/poly(ethyl methacrylate) (PVPh/PEMA) blends has been studied using broad-band dielectric spectroscopy in the frequency domain from 10 -2 to 10 7 Hz and at temperatures between 30 and 180 °C. The α and β processes are resolved from the dielectric spectr…

The fabrication of cobalt oxide nanotubes (length 3−4 μm, width 200−400 nm) was achieved by a colloidal templating approach. In this approach, a Co(III)−cysteinato complex [Co(en) 2 (S-cys)] 2+ 2(BF 4 - ) was employed as the precursor of cobalt oxide. The infiltration behavior of the precursor into polyelectrolyte mul…
