Ultrafine-grained (UFG) aluminium, processed under fast cooling rate conditions (12 K s−1) following hot rolling (water quenched) exhibits enhanced thermal stability due to an increase in concentration of solid solution atoms, relative to the furnace cooled material. The influence of fraction recrystallized on yield s…

Atomic motion and the structure response of grain boundaries (GBs) are essential to the plastic deformation of small-volume polycrystal systems, especially for thin materials that exhibit some dramatic characteristics. Here, the microstructure and properties of thin Ni/Ni3Al (0 0 1) with the uniaxial tension of twist…

Novel dynamic experiments have enabled the identification of a macroscopic solidlike response in the isotropic phase of a low molecular weight liquid crystal, 4,4'-n-octylcyanobiphenyl (8CB). This unknown property indicates that the low frequency shear elasticity identified in the isotropic phase of liquid crystal pol…

We report on the viscosity of a dilute suspension of cube-shaped particles. Irrespective of the particle size, size distribution, and surface chemistry, we find empirically that cubes manifest an intrinsic viscosity [η]=3.1±0.2, which is substantially higher than the well-known value for spheres, [η]=2.5. The orientat…

A chemically induced magnetoelectric coupling effect in ferroelectric/antiferromagnetic self-assembled vertical nanocomposites is designed. A concrete connection between chemical diffusion and the induced magnetic moment is revealed. Importantly, this study shows the strong magnetoelectric coupling effect, which is ke…

ABSTRACT The backbone of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) was modified with 2,4:3,5‐di‐ O ‐methylene‐ D ‐glucitol (Glux) using solid‐state modification (SSM). The obtained copolyesters proved to have a non‐random overall chemical microstructure. The thermal properties of these semicrystalline, block‐like, Glux‐based…

Size parameters of SiO 2 /TiO 2 hollow nanoparticles (HNPs) of 25–100 nm in diameter were characterized by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). On the basis of the decoupling and the Percus–Yevick approximations, and using a hollow sphere model, size information on HNPs was extracted, including average outer diameter,…
