The correlation between photoluminescence (PL) and structural properties of ZnO crystals has been investigated using fine particles prepared by a precipitation method and subsequent heat treatment. The ZnO particles heat-treated at temperatures less than 600°C exhibited red emission centered at 1.9 eV for a weak light…

Electrospun poly(glycolide-co-lactide) (PLA10GA90, LA/GA ratio 10/90) biodegradable nanofiber membranes possessed very high surface area to volume ratios and were completely noncrystalline with a relatively lowered glass transition temperature. These characteristics led to very different structure, morphology, and pro…

Two new remendable highly cross-linked polymers, 2ME4F and 2MEP4F, were prepared without solvent. Solid-state NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) was used to study the thermal reversibility of Diels−Alder (DA) cross-linking, and it was found that DA connections and disconnections of both polymers are thermally reversible…

TiO 2 nanoparticles when subjected to UV irradiation exhibit blue coloration as electrons are stored within the particles. Upon contact with gold nanoparticles, a partial disappearance of the blue color is seen as the stored electrons are transferred from TiO 2 to Au nanoparticles. The charge distribution between the…

Mesoporous silica particles were modified with LIX-84 (2-hydroxy-5-nonylacetophenome oxime). LIX-84 was attached to the surface of silica via noncovalent forces. The effects of silica particle size, pore size, temperature, and pH on metal-ion-exchange properties were studied to characterize metal ion adsorption proper…

Abstract A semirigid and amorphous commercial liquid‐crystalline copolyester (Rodrun) was filled with mica and calcium carbonate (up to 25 wt %) by direct injection molding. The fillers led to decreases in the processability, as observed by torque increases, but maintained the thermal resistance of Rodrun. The effects…

The results of an electron spectroscopy study carried out on a set of pulsed laser deposited CN x films are reported. A progressive degree of graphitization, deduced from the continuous increase in the sp 2 bond fraction, has been found for x values up to 25%. The mass density values, deduced by a proper treating of b…

Calculations of the spin-dependent electronic structure and enthalpies of formation, ΔH, of the ternary hydrides LaCo5H4, PrCo5H4, and their parent intermetallics are reported. All four compounds are found to be metallic and ferromagnetic. We obtain ΔH(LaCo5H4)=−45.6 kJ/mole H2, ΔH(PrCo5H4)=−39.8 kJ/mole H2, and ΔH(La…

We present the results of the Raman studies on vibrational dynamics and static properties of methylcyclohexane (MCH) and deuterated methylcyclohexane (MCH-d14) in distinct thermodynamic states ranging from normal liquid, undercooled liquid to crystal and glassy states. We have studied the low frequency Raman spectra i…

Abstract Polyurethane dispersions containing phosphate and siloxane groups in the main chain were investigated as possible self‐assembling metal coatings. Improved adhesion of the polymer to the metal was observed because of the formation of an insoluble metal phosphate layer at the metal–coating interface. The neutra…

Abstract. Grain boundary (GB) wetting phase transitions were studied, for the first time, in Al–Mg polycrystals (Mg contents of 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt.%; temperature range 490–630 ºC). It was observed that above 598 ºC all GBs in the solid Al-rich phase were wetted by a liquid phase. Below 540 ºC no GBs wetted by a liqui…

Abstract The presence of aggregates of CaCO 3 nanoparticles in an isotactic polypropylene matrix processed by extrusion promotes the apparition of residual stresses. These stresses are removed with a thermal treatment of the composite, but a higher molecular orientation is then produced. The chain orientation inside t…
