Vertically aligned bamboo-like carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are successfully synthesized on Ni-coated Si (Ni/Si) substrates by hot-filament-assisted radio frequency (rf) magnetron sputtering. Transmission electron microscopy analysis reveals that a bamboo-like structure is formed inside the nanotube that has a catalytic Ni…

This paper compares the hairiness of Solospun yarns with conventional ring spun worsted yams of the same specifications. A 24-spindles worsted ring spinning frame is used to spin the Solospun and conventional ring spun yarns at the same time, and yarn hairiness is measured. The total hairiness number ( T p ), the numb…

After being thrown onto a solid substrate, very soft spherical gels bounce repeatedly. Separate rheological measurements suggest that these balls can be treated as nearly elastic. The Hertz contact deformation expected in the static (elastic) limit was observed only at very small impact velocities. For larger velociti…

This theoretical work describes pores between fibers in general fiber assemblies. The basic idea is to treat the pores between fibers—under certain assumptions—as air fibers surrounded by fictional borders. Different pore characteristics are formulated from basic definitions of fiber assemblies. It is possible to find…

A diode-structure flat-panel luminescent lamp has been fabricated by using carbon nanotube (CNT) film as cathode. The CNT emitters were grown on silicon substrate by catalytic decomposition of acetylene. Studies of scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy show that as-grown CNTs are randomly o…

Abstract In the 2 nd order mountain brook “Oberer Seebach” (Austria), diatoms and cyanoprokaryotes dominate the microphytobenthos, with the diatoms forming the richest species group. Comparative investigations of different habitats clearly show seasonal variations in algal species composition and biomass throughout th…

The conductivity and magnetic susceptibility of disordered titanium monoxide TiO y (0.920≤ y ≤1.262) containing vacancies in titanium and oxygen sublattices are investigated. For TiO y monoxides with an oxygen content y ≤1.069, the temperature dependences of the conductivity are described by the Bloch-Grüneisen functi…

Several poly(alkoxyphosphazenes) and poly(fluoroalkoxyphosphazenes) were synthesized and allowed to react with various organic nucleophiles. Reactions were carried out at room temperature (25 °C) and at 67 °C in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and were monitored by 31 P NMR spectroscopy. The possible use of single-substituent p…
