Abstract : A methodology was developed to predict fabric particle penetration performance for various wind speeds. Pressure drop across a fabric sleeve in a wind tunnel was measured along with the relationship of fabric pressure drop and fabric face velocity for a bench top swatch testing apparatus. The relationship b…

In contrast to carbon, which forms long polymeric chains, all-nitrogen chains are very unstable. Here we found that nitrogen and hydrogen directly react at room temperature and pressures of about 35 GPa forming a mixture of nitrogen backbone oligomers - chains of single-bonded nitrogen atom with the rest of the bonds…
