The formation of γ‐AlON from Al 2 O 3 and AlN was investigated as a function of some of the reaction parameters, that is, temperature and time. The appearance of phases was followed in conjunction with the change in lattice parameter to reveal the reaction sequences of formation. An oxygen‐rich γ‐AlON phase formed fir…

A four-pad 3ω method was developed for determining the thermal conductivity of bulk and thin film materials. The heat conduction in the sample geometry was investigated by numerical simulation employing the finite volume technique. As a result, the conditions (i.e., sample geometry, frequency range) can be predicted w…

Liquid n-decane, n-undecane, n-dodecane, and n-hexadecane formed tiny symmetrical droplets on a partially wettable cylindrical fiber. When a temperature gradient was created along the fiber, the droplets began to move along the fiber toward the cold region. An explanation of the phenomenon is related to the thermocapi…

In this paper the formation and annihilation of defects produced in Si nanocrystals (nc) by ion-beam irradiation are investigated in detail. The luminescence properties of Si nanocrystals embedded in a ${\mathrm{SiO}}_{2}$ matrix were used as a probe of the damaging effects generated by high-energy ion-beam irradiatio…

A novel concept is proposed: the use of shape memory alloy (SMA) to reduce panel thermal deflection and flutter responses. SMA has a unique ability to recover large pre-strains completely when the alloy is heated above the austenite finish temperature A f . The transformation austenite start temperature A s for nitino…

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: An important characteristic of targeted contrast agents is how they are tolerated in a biologic environment and their localization in the surrounding tissues in addition to target tissue. We evaluate the biodistribution of a gadolinium Gd 153-folate-dendrimer in high affinity folate-receptor…

Cyclic polarization (CYP) experiments were performed on reinforcing steel bars of various surface finishes in chloride-containing alkaline solutions (pH 11.6 ~ 13.6). Pitting initiation was observed at potentials below the oxygen evolution potential (EOE) when the solution [Cl–]/[OH–] ratio (CR) was high enough. The p…

We present a method for the calculation of the local electric field at the surface of a nanoscopic emitting structure. The method is here applied to carbon nanotubes (NT) where symmetry makes the application of the method easier. The NT is simulated as a cylindrical array of touching spheres, each sphere representing…

Abstract The rate constants of epoxidation were determined by reacting formic acid with a number of oils, pure TAG, and pure FAME. These results showed that FA composition had a significant effect on the value of the rate constant. In TAG, the double bonds of oleic acid and linoleic acid were equally reactive, and the…
