This work is a contribution to better knowledge of the influence of the structure of films on their functional properties obtained from emulsions based on arabinoxylans, hydrogenated palm kernel oil (HPKO), and emulsifiers. The sucroesters (emulsifiers) have a great effect on the stabilization of the emulsified film s…
The application of ultrasound for the treatment of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) contaminated sediments was explored in this study with a model system of 4-chlorobiphenyl (4-CB) and synthetic sediments. In the presence of an ultrasonic probe, operating at 20 kHz with a power density of 460 W L(-1), more than 90% of 4…
Syndiotactic polystyrene (sPS) glassy sample crystallizes into the polymer−solvent complex of δ form with T 2 G 2 helical conformation when it is exposed to the atmosphere of organic solvent. This solvent-induced crystallization is observed at room temperature, much lower than the glass transition temperature of sPS.…
Succinyl-CoA synthetase catalyzes the reversible reaction succinyl-CoA + NDP + P(i) <--> succinate + CoA + NTP (N denoting adenosine or guanosine). The enzyme consists of two different subunits, designated alpha and beta. During the reaction, a histidine residue of the alpha-subunit is transiently phosphorylated. This…
The hydration behavior of synthetic magadiite exchanged with H +, Na +, K +, Mg 2+, and Ca 2+ was investigated by combining thermal analyses, water adsorption gravimetry, X-ray diffraction, and spectroscopic techniques, including 29 Si NMR, infrared, and Raman under various pressures. Thermal analyses reveal distinct…
We present in situ x-ray scattering measurements of the surface structures of ${\mathrm{PbTiO}}_{3}$ (001) in equilibrium with PbO vapor. At 875 to 1025 K, a reconstruction having $c(2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}2)$ symmetry is present under most conditions, while a $1\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}6$ reconst…
ZnS passivated InP nanoparticles prepared by the TOP/TOPO method have been investigated by photoelectron spectroscopy with tunable synchrotron radiation. Based on the energy dependence of the electron escape depth, we present a method to characterize the core−shell nature of the sample structure. Energy tuning indicat…
The hard sphere disorder-order transition serves as the paradigm for crystallization. However, measurements of the crystallization kinetics for colloidal hard spheres in the coexistence regime are incomplete for early times and are affected by sedimentation. We use time resolved Bragg light scattering to characterize…
The reaction of Sr2CuO3 with air and liquid water was studied to address the origin of the reported variable Curie-Weiss impurity contribution to the magnetic susceptibility X of this compound at low temperatures. Sr2CuO3 was found to decompose upon exposure to either of these environments. The compound Sr2Cu(OH)6 was…
We have studied the magnetic properties of (GaMnAs)m/(GaAs)n superlattices with magnetic GaMnAs layers of thickness between 8 and 16 molecular layers (ML) (23-45 Å), and with nonmagnetic GaAs spacers from 4 ML to 10 ML (11-28 Å). While previous reports state that GaMnAs layers thinner than 50 Åare paramagnetic in the…
Crackling noise is observed in many disordered non-equilibrium systems in response to slowly changing external conditions. Examples range from Barkhausen noise in magnets to acoustic emission in martensites to earthquakes. Using the non-equilibrium random field Ising model, we derive universal scaling predictions for…
We studied the influence of sample preparation and defects in the superconducting properties samples using atomic ratios of Mg:B=1:1 and Mg:B=1:2. Samples were characterized by SEM, and XRD, and the magnetization properties were examined in a SQUID magnetometer. The presence of Mg vacancies was determined by Rietveld…
The effects of structure and morphology on lithium storage in single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) bundles were studied by electrochemistry and nuclear magnetic resonance techniques. SWNTs were chemically etched to variable lengths and were intercalated with Li. The reversible Li storage capacity increased from LiC(6) i…
The glass transition temperature (Tg) in water is still uncertain, with conflicting values reported in the literature. As with other hyperquenched glasses, water exhibits a large relaxation exotherm on reheating at the normal rate of 10 kelvin (K) per minute. This release of heat indicates the transformation of a high…
Reduction of an oxide in hydrogen is a method frequently employed in the preparation of active catalysts and electronic devices. Synchrotron-based time-resolved X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS/EXAFS), photoemission, and first-principles density-functional (DF) slab calculations were us…
Recent research in several groups has identified a new class of metal colloidal nanoparticles that is able to enhance the efficiencies of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) by as much as 10 14 −10 15 fold. This enormous enhancement allows single-molecule detection and spectroscopy at room temperature. Previous s…
Introduction A key feature of the chemistry of layered materials is the location of molecules (guests) of interest within the relatively constrained region of the interlayer. As such, the incorporation of guest molecules into layered hosts affords a versatile approach towards obtaining novel nanocomposite materials. O…
Abstract Isotactic polypropylene hollow fibers were produced by melt spinning. Spinning speeds up to 1880 m/min were used, and sample hollowness (percentage void in cross section) ranged from 0 to 69%. The fiber samples were characterized using dynamic mechanical analysis, birefringence, tensile testing, and different…
Abstract Polyimide hybrid films containing bimetalic compounds were obtained by codoping poly(amic acid) with a barium and titanium precursor prepared from BaCO 3 , Ti(OBu) 4 , and lactic acid followed by casting and thermal curing. FTIR, WAXD, and XPS measurements showed that barium and titanium precursor could be tr…
The diffusivity, permeability, and solubility coefficients of O 2, N 2, CO 2, and CH 4 have been measured in PVC and in four samples of PVC functionalized with mercapto pyridine groups up to 6.8, 11, 21, and 46 mol %. It has been found that the permeability of all four gases progressively increases by a factor of more…
