Abstract Isolation of a new artifact ( 1 ) from Calotropis procera is reported which, apparently, is formed from the precursor calotropagenin ( 4 ) when exposed to methanol during work‐up. In addition, two more known cardenolides ( 2 and 3 ) could be identified. The structure of 1 and its full 1 H and 13 C signal assi…

We report the structure determination on a single crystal of Ba 12 Co 11 O 33, which belongs to the family of 1-dimensional structures related to the 2H hexagonal perovskite. The structure can be derived from the hcp stacking of [Ba 8 Co 2 O 18 ] and [Ba 8 O 24 ] layers. Assuming a similitude in the building principle…

Shape memory alloy (SMA)-reinforced composite patches not only provide non-intrusive and flexible structural damage repair like normal polymer composite patches, but are also able to enhance the repair efficiency by applying active closure stress. The active closure stress is produced by shape recovery of pre-stretche…

The isothermal crystallization of a semicrystalline poly(ethylene oxide- b -ethylene/butylene) diblock copolymer (PEO- b -PB h ) in uniform lamellar films has been investigated by X-ray reflectivity, optical microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. Crystallization of the PEO block leads to an increase in the lamellar…

Abstract SSP, starting from very low molecular weight (MW) poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) precursors, is claimed to offer significant production cost advantages over conventional PET production. However, as the intrinsic viscosity (IV) of the PET precursor is reduced, there is a significant change in the crystalli…

Abstract Three different modes of rheological properties were measured on 11 and 13 wt % solutions of cellulose in N ‐methyl morpholine N ‐oxide (NMMO) monohydrate, in which concentration range lyocell fibers of much reduced fibrillation are preferably produced. The dynamic rheological responses revealed that the Cox–…

Abstract Well‐dispersed nickel nanoparticles in polystyrene were obtained by a sonochemical method. The properties of the as‐prepared nanocomposite materials were characterized by XRD, TEM, EDAX, TGA, DSC, and a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The nickel particles were 5 nm in diameter and were very well disperse…

This paper is one of a series (see: Inorg. Chem. 1999, 38, 3609; J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 632; Inorg. Chem. 2002, 41, 2364) exploring simple approaches for the estimation of lattice energies of ionic materials, avoiding elaborate computation. Knowledge of lattice energy can lead, via thermochemical cycles, to the…

A unique supercritical fluid inclusion-phase technique has been developed to embed silicon nanowires, with size monodispersed diameters, within the pores of mesoporous silica hosts. These nanocomposite materials displayed quite intense room temperature ultraviolet and visible photoluminescence (PL), and the emission w…

Following our previous papers regarding Pd/C and Pd/SiO 2 catalysts, the determination of the Pd/CO average chemisorption stoichiometry from experimental data has been extended to the Pd/alumina system. To this purpose, the Pd crystallite size determined by the well-established line-broadening (LB) method, using X-ray…

DFT calculations performed on Si_2H_6, Si_2F_6, Si_2Cl_6, and Si_2Br_6 are reported. The evolution of the energy, the chemical potential and the molecular hardness, as a function of torsion angle, is studied. Results at the DFT-B3LYP/6-311++G** level show that the molecules always favor the stable staggered conformati…
