The Co-Cr-Mo alloy is extensively used for tribological applications, including orthopaedic components in total joint replacements. High quality diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings on metal/alloy substrates are of great interest as they are able to protect them from severe wear and thus prolong the life span of the com…

The effects of Ce addition on the activity of Pt/Al 2 O 3 catalysts were investigated for the wet oxidation of phenol. Platinum was impregnated on γ-Al 2 O 3 by using two different precursors: one is anionic (i.e., H 2 PtCl 6 ) and the other is cationic (i.e., Pt(NH 3 ) 4 Cl 2 ). The Pt catalysts from the former showe…

The formation of carbonaceous condensates in the atmospheres of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) carbon stars and in the nebulae of post-AGB objects occurs in a chemical environment that also contains oxygen and nitrogen. The extent of incorporation of chemical groups containing these elements in carbonaceous solids will…

We perform first-principles pseudopotential calculations to investigate the oxidation process by oxygen gas exposure in single-wall carbon nanotubes with a closed tip. Oxygen molecules can be initially adsorbed either on the tube cap or wall, keeping their molecular form, then, a successive transformation occurs into…

Hydrogenated amorphous carbon films were fabricated with and without hydrogen dilution in a small d.c bias-assisted plasma chemical vapor deposition system. It was found that the hydrogen dilution can reduce the sp 2 / sp 3 ratio in carbon films which results in blue shift of room temperature photoluminescence spectru…

Polyoxometalate (POM) clusters derivatized with aniline groups exhibit distinct interactions with counterions and with each other. These interactions lead to the assembly of the clusters into chains and networks upon crystallization. Two cluster types were examined, [W(6)O(25)H(AsC(6)H(4)-4-NH(2))(2)](5-) and [Mo(12)O…

Abstract Tensile drawing and short‐term creep of ethylene/α‐olefin copolymers having bimodal (BM) molar weight distribution are studied in comparison with unimodal (UM) copolymers of similar crystallinity. The natural draw ratio and viscoelastic recovery upon unloading strongly suggest that BM copolymers have more tie…
