A zirconia suspension containing 5–10 nm size zirconia particles was modified by adding different amounts of polymer solution to enable electrospinning of zirconia fibers from a range of compositions. The electrospun fibers were heat treated at 600° and 1200°C, and analysis of size distribution reveals that zirconia f…

Abstract Epoxy/polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) nanocomposites were obtained from octakis(glycidyldimethylsiloxy)octasilsesquioxane (OG) and diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A cured with small‐molecule curing agents of diethylphosphite (DEP) and dicyandiamide (DICY). An increase in the POSS contents of the nan…

A constraint stress of 62.5 MPa is created on a three‐dimensional C/SiC composite specimen whose both ends are fixed when temperature is cycled between 900° and 1200°C. The cyclic stress results in a maximum damage strain of 0.06% within 50 cycles owing to coating and matrix cracking, fiber debonding, sliding, and bre…

Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a unique form of carbon filament/fiber in which the graphene walls roll up to form tubes. They can exhibit either metallic‐like or semiconductor‐like properties. With the graphene walls parallel to the filament axis, nanotubes (single wall metallic‐type or multi‐wall) exhibit high…

Extreme osmotic compression of nanoemulsion droplets, achieved by ultracentrifugation, can create solidlike biliquid foams without causing significant droplet coalescence. Using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), we probe the structure of a uniform silicone oil-in-water nanoemulsion stabilized by sodium dodecyl su…

UreE is a homodimeric metallo-chaperone that assists the insertion of Ni(2+) ions in the active site of urease. The crystal structures of UreE from Bacillus pasteurii and Klebsiella aerogenes have been determined, but the details of the nickel-binding site were not elucidated due to solid-state effects that caused dis…

Debye-like screening by edge dislocations of some externally given stress is studied by means of a variational approach to coarse grained field theory. Explicitly given are the force field and the induced geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) distribution, in the special case of a single glide axis in 2D, for (i)…

Abstract Quenching of quantum dot luminescence by nitroxides shows steep exponential behavior and is dependent on nanoparticle size, being most effective for the smaller particles. The interaction of CdSe nanoparticles with TEMPO (non‐binding) and 4‐amino‐TEMPO (binding) has been examined using fluorescence and electr…

The ease and ability to predict sintering shrinkage and densification with the Skorohod–Olevsky viscous sintering (SOVS) model within a finite‐element (FE) code have been improved with the use of an Arrhenius‐type viscosity function. The need for a better viscosity function was identified by evaluating SOVS model pred…
