Bicomponent fibers were wet-spun from soybean protein and poly(vinyl alcohol). The protein core of the spun bicomponent fiber was brittle and showed a high frequency of core breakage upon drawing. Our effort was then to study the soybean protein solution, with the aim of trying to understand the cause for fiber brittl…

In this work, impact copolymer polypropylene (ICPP) was fractionated into 4 fractions. ICPP and the 4 fractions were studied using Fourier transform infrared and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. The results demonstrate that fraction A is ethylene–propylene rubber, fraction B is ethylene–propylene (EP) segmente…

A series of CeO2-CaO-P2O5 glasses containing up to 35 mol% CeO2 are studied by IR and Raman spectroscopy. The spectra evaluation shows close correspondence between the IR spectra obtained and these of ultra, meta and ortho phosphates of light lanthanides. Raman spectra also evidence the formation of polymeric structur…

The embedded atom method (EAM), where a highly accurate empirical inter-atomic potential calculation is possible in comparison with the two-body pair potential, is used for the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Parameters are fitted for Al and Cu so as to reproduce the metal properties such as elastic constants (C11…

When an alternating current flows through a ferromagnetic wire, its thermal output is higher than predicted by the familiar Joule law. An additional contribution arises from the heat liberated due to the hysteresis loss in the self-induced magnetic field inside the wire. Simple calculations, based on the formulae deri…

Unlike the determination of skin roughness, the determination of skin gloss has as yet been given little attention. Recent books on examination techniques for human skin contain nothing on this subject [1–4]. This maybe connected with the fact that no methods exist for an objective assessment of skin gloss. Gloss meas…

Simultaneous synthesis and densification of α-Zr (N) (hexagonal) from zirconium powder compacts are achieved by self-propagating combustion under high nitrogen pressures. Nitrogen contents increase from 12.2 to 23.5 at% with decreasing compacting pressure and increasing nitrogen pressure. The material with the highest…

This paper considers the efficiency of electrostatic charging of water-sprayed fibers during the melt-blowing process. Two charging methods were used to charge the fibers near the die exit and the fabrics after the collector. Both showed that the charging efficiency was not affected by the water-spraying process if th…
