We have succeeded in preparing amorphous carbon disulphide (CS 2 ) by depositing its vapour on a cold substrate at 10 K. Complete formation of the amorphous state has been confirmed by neutron diffraction and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The amorphous sample crystallised at ca. 70 K, which is lower than the hy…
We have developed a method for measurement of internal stress in glass articles. The method uses Rayleigh‐scattered light from a properly polarized laser beam propagating through glass at an oblique angle. This light is imaged with an electronic focal plane array camera. The method is similar to earlier published meth…
The formation of crystals from solutions containing sodium carbonate and sodium sulfate is a complex process that often results in fouling of heat-transfer surfaces. Complexity results from a dependence of the composition of crystals formed on the composition of the solution, and the solution composition changes with…
The transmittance, absorbance, and reflectance of polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), and polypropylene/polyethylene (PP/PE) blends prepared by a hot pressing method are investigated. IR and UV spectra of PP, PE, and PP/PE blends (0–80%) in the wavelength range of 200–25000 nm were examined. The optical absorption…
When sulfur vulcanized natural rubber compounds are exposed to a thermal ageing environment significant change in physical properties and performance characteristics are observed. These changes are directly related to modifications of the original crosslink structure. Decomposition reactions tend to predominate and th…

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) has been used to investigate point defects in single crystals of β-BaB2O4 (commonly referred to as BBO). An irradiation with x rays at 77 K produces two dominant EPR spectra, one electronlike and the other holelike. The trapped-electron center exhibits a 16-line hyperfine pattern…
Temperature studies of optical absorption spectra in the range of the fundamental absorption edge for layered CuInP2Se6 single crystals obtained by the technique combining recrystallization and vapor-phase transport, are reported. The temperature behavior of the absorption-edge spectra is the evidence for the es-senti…
The heat capacity of cyclooctanol was measured with an adiabatic calorimeter in the temperature range 5–340 K. Liquid cyclooctanol crystallized into crystal I, a plastic (orientationally disordered) phase. Crystal I was supercooled readily and underwent a glass transition at 160 K. Crystal II, obtained by annealing cr…
Relaxation processes occurring during electroinsertion into pure SnO 2 and electrochromic SnO 2 /Sb were interpreted on the basis of frequency-dependent response models. Within the framework of the classic theory of porous electrodes, the results indicated that, in the case of nanosized particle-based electrodes, the…
An extension of the concept of response reactions (RERs) is presented that allows the generation of thermochemical data from group additivity (GA) and ab initio methods using precisely the same stoichiometric and mathematical procedures. This goal is achieved by (i) reformulating the ordinary least squares (OLS) analy…
MgO-C-Al refractory is representative of the carbon-containing refractory. Al metal has been widely used as an antioxidant. However, since it has some defects, development of new antioxidant is desired due to adverse effects by reaction products. This paper describes a new family of antioxidants such as Al{sub 4}O{sub…
The relationship between the impulse breakdown voltage of vacuum gaps and electrode surface roughness was investigated for the purpose of controlling the surface roughness on HV conductors. The roughness of mechanically polished Cu and Cu-Cr electrodes was measured with a roughness meter, and the relationship between…
The prpB gene of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium LT2 encodes a protein with 2-methylisocitrate (2-MIC) lyase activity, which cleaves 2-MIC into pyruvate and succinate during the conversion of propionate to pyruvate via the 2-methylcitric acid cycle. This paper reports the isolation and kinetic characterization…
A new form of time-resolved multiphoton-excited fluorescence imaging is described and used to study electric-field-induced reorientation dynamics in polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (LC) films. This method provides information on the static and dynamic LC orientation via polarization-dependent three-photon excitation…
Laser Raman studies on two compounds of the α,ω-bis(4-alkylanilinebenzylidene -4′-oxy)alkane series were carried out in the spectral regions 1140–1220 and 1550–1650 cm-1 as a function of temperature. Compounds 7.O4O.7 and 7.O5O.7, exhibit SmA and SmF phases. The structural differences between these liquid crystal dime…
Abstract Computer simulations have been performed for electric field induced parallel‐perpendicular lamellar phase transition in the presence of electrodes. The simulations are based on the dynamic density functional theory. Here we provide the extension of earlier work in two dimensions (2D) to three dimensions (3D).…
The electrochemical behavior of tin polycrystals in borate buffer solutions at pH 7.5 was systematically investigated using cyclic voltammetry, EC-STM and electrochemical impedance measurements. A systematic shift to more negative values of the potentials corresponding either to the major reduction peak either to the…
The quantitative analysis of binary polyethylene (PE) blends by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy has been achieved based on the ratio of two absorbance peaks in an FT-IR spectrum. The frequencies for the absorbance ratio are selected based on structural entities of the PE components in the blend. A line…
Abstract The influence of tin and lead additives on the catalytic activity of platinum particles dispersed on a poly(3,4‐dioxyethylenethiophene) (PEDT) layer deposited on gold or steel towards anodic oxidation of methanol and ethanol was studied. It was found that these additives increase the rate of anodic oxidation…
