Ni2MnGa bulk specimen has a Heusler-type crystal structure and is ferromagnetic. The cubic structure transforms to a tetragonal structure through the martensitic transformation during cooling. In this study, Ni2MnGa thin films were deposited on a PVA substrate by the sputtering method using a high frequency magnetron…
Coatings of room-temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicone rubber (SIR) are used increasingly on outdoor HV porcelain and glass insulators and bushings when subjected to heavy pollution. An important property of the RTV-SIR coating is its ability to restore the hydrophobicity of the surface after a layer of contamination…
The findings of an investigation of temperature-manipulated size and shape evolution for pre-formed decanethiolate–encapsulated gold nanocrystals are described.
Chitosan has wide-ranging applications as a biomaterial, but its stability in storage is not widely known. The objective of this study was to evaluate the storage stability of films prepared from chitosan of 77% deacetylation. Both the neutralized and acetate films were evaluated, as chitosan salts offer the advantage…
An electrolytic reduction treatment using cathodic polarization at constant potential was applied to heavily corroded lead objects which had been exposed for a long time to corrosive organic acid vapours. Experimental conditions were determined through chemical and electrochemical tests conducted on artificially carbo…
In order to obtain composites of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) encapsulated by polystyrene (PS), soapless polymerization of styrene (S) in aqueous phase in the presence of CaCO3 was carried out. Influences on the encapsulation and on monomer conversion were studied. Results showed that monomer conversion higher than 52% c…
The electronic structure of CaTiO 3 was experimentally examined by x-ray and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy, bremsstrahlung isochromat spectroscopy (BIS) and x-ray absorption spectroscopy. The photoemission spectra and BIS spectra were compared with the partial density of states (PDOS) estimated by an energy b…
The synthesis, characterization and spectral properties of six new meso-aryl core modified sapphyrins are described. An efficient approach involving an acid catalyzed condensation of bithiophene diol 1 and modified tripyrranes 2a–2e allows preparation of the desired meso-aryl sapphyrins in 16–36% yield. The product di…
Chitosan microspheres containing cis-platin were prepared using a w/o emulsion system. Variables important for microsphere properties were investigated: these include; chitosan, cis-platin and glutaraldehyde concentrations, the types of chitosan and oil, the cross-linking process and stirring rate. Chitosan and glutar…
Power generation characteristics of fuel cells was greatly improved by using La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.115Co0.085O3 as electrolyte. In particular, the maximum power density attained a value of 1.53 and 0.50 W cm–2 at 1073 and 873 K, respectively, in an H2–O2 cell when the thickness of electrolyte was 0.18 mm.
The suitability of stabilized amorphous selenium (a-Se:0.2-0.5% As, 10-20 ppm Cl) as an x-ray imaging photoconductor is largely determined by its charge-generation, transport and trapping properties. The product of the charge-carrier drift mobility, , deep-trapping lifetime, , and applied electrical field, F , known a…
Methods for the evaluation of the accuracy of crystal structures of proteins and nucleic acids are of general importance for structure-function studies as well as for biotechnological and biomedical research based upon three-dimensional structures of biomacromolecules. The structure-validation program DDQ (difference-…
Thermally stimulated current (TSC) spectroscopy is widely used to understand dielectric relaxation in complex solid systems. However, when these systems contain free and bound charges, it appears that TSC spectra exhibit multicomponent signals, due both to dipolar and to space-charge relaxation. In this work, we propo…
In this work, magnetization studies on quasi bi-dimensional nanoparticles of Pd encapsulated in a graphite host as a function of magnetic field and temperature are presented. We found that an important magnetic signal can be attributed to the Pd nanoparticles. The obtained magnetic behaviour is interpreted in view of…
Preface. Loss of stability and post-buckling behaviour. Summation theorems concerning critical loads of bifurcation. Interaction of different buckling modes in the post-buckling range. Stability of elastic structures with the aid of the catastrophe theory. Buckling of frames. Application of the sandwich theory in the…
In the present paper the formation of space charge in irradiated low-density polyethylene (LDPE) was investigated using the pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) technique. Specimens of LDPE, /spl sim/100 /spl mu/m thick, were irradiated to various doses at room temperature in a /sup 60/Co /spl gamma/ source in one of three di…
Silica-supported molybdenum oxide catalysts have been prepared by liquid and gas phase deposition, followed by calcination of the deposited molybdenyl acetylacetonato complex. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy indicated a hydrogen bonding anchorage mechanism for the liquid phase deposition and a two step reactio…
It is known that mesophase changes can be induced by E-Z photoisomerization of azobenzenes doped in liquid crystals. Novel azobenzenes have been designed on the basis of Molecular Mechanics and Molecular Orbital calculation, aimed at exploiting novel photoresponsive guest-host liquid crystalline systems exhibiting no…
Dicholesteryl esters of diacetylenedicarboxylic acid with different lengths of methylene linkages were synthesised. Compounds with (CH 2 ) n (n = 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10) showed a cholesteric phase. Phase transition temperatures from the isotropic phase to the anisotropic phase showed an odd–even effect of the number of…
A survey of 100 young women's body measurements was undertaken during 1992/93. The findings are the basis of Part 3, which aims to explain how size charts are developed for garments; to evaluate the measuring equipment used and to compare the size chart body measurements with those proportionally derived by traditiona…
