A new prediction model for the autocatalytic random hydrolysis of aliphatic polyesters is proposed. The model predicts changes in the number- and weight-average degrees of polymerization. The model enables to avoid certain errors liable to occur in the estimation of hydrolysis with only the number-average molecular we…

Methane and krypton adsorption measured on single-walled nanotubes at 78.7 and 77.3 K, respectively, give rise to stepwise isotherms, representative of the adsorption on two types of comparatively uniform patches during the first stages of the adsorbate condensation. The values of the methane isosteric heat of adsorpt…

In this paper, Novozyme-435-catalyzed ω-pentadecalactone and ω-pentadecalactone/ε-caprolactone polymerizations were investigated. Novozyme-435-catalyzed ω-pentadecalactone polymerizations were studied in bulk and at ω-pentadecalactone-to-toluene ratios from 1:1 to 1:10 (wt/vol). By carrying out polymerizations with ω-…

Colloidal dispersions of polymer−silica nanocomposite particles were synthesized in high yield by homopolymerizing 4-vinylpyridine (4VP) in the presence of an ultrafine silica sol using a free-radical initiator in aqueous media at 60 °C. Copolymerization of 4VP with methyl methacrylate and styrene also produced colloi…

We demonstrate that X-ray irradiation can be used to induce an insulator-metal transition in Si-doped Al$_{0.35}$Ga$_{0.65}$As, a semiconductor with {\it DX} centers. The excitation mechanism of the {\it DX} centers into their shallow donor state was revealed by studying the photoconductance along with fluorescence. T…

A new series of oxides Ca 3 - x Bi x Co 4 O 9+ δ, ( x = 0.0−0.75) with Ca 2 Co 2 O 5 -type structures were synthesized, and their structures, electrical properties, Seebeck coefficients, and thermal conductivities were measured. The values of Seebeck coefficients of the new oxides are all positive, showing that they a…

The glass transition temperature of polystyrene and poly(methyl methacrylate) films on polar and nonpolar substrates was measured as a function of thickness using a thermal probe in contact with a polymer film. Using a technique called local thermal analysis, heat loss into the film was monitored as the temperature of…

The interaction of hydrazine with kaolinite was studied using a combination of infrared (IR) spectroscopy, inelastic neutron scattering (INS), and X-ray powder diffraction. Under ambient temperature and pressure conditions, anhydrous hydrazine is readily intercalated into the interlamellar region of kaolinite resultin…

The Raman scattering spectra of Ba 3 MoNbO 8.5 and Ba 7 Nb 4 MoO 20, two cation-deficient perovskite-like oxides, are presented for the first time and analyzed in an attempt to confirm the distribution of octahedra and tetrahedra proposed in recent structural investigations. The Raman spectra are discussed in relation…

Unusual thermal robustness is exhibited by a homoleptic ytterbium complex, which sublimes intact at temperatures in excess of 500 °C/760 Torr. Employment of a (N)-nPr substituted ketoiminate ligand provides notable metal encapsulation and ensures substantial air stability and vapor-phase integrity. The octahedral coor…

When the dimensions of matter are reduced to the nanometer scale and beyond, strange properties often emerge. In their Perspective, Tosatti and Prestipino discuss the weird gold nanowire structures reported by Kondo and Takayanagi. They explain why the wires may be helical and only form certain "magic" sizes. Other me…
