A new route to the synthesis of 1,4,7-tris(2-aminoethyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane has been introduced. This polyamino derivative of 1,4,7-triazacyclononane has been used to synthesise a new ligand (L) by Schiff-base condensation with sodium pyruvate in the presence of lanthanide(III) (Ln) ions as templating agents to f…

A new technique for the enzyme-amplified lanthanide luminescence (EALL) quantification of peroxidase in bioassays is introduced. Several phenolic peroxidase substrates may be used. These are dimerised in the course of the enzymatic reaction and subsequently form luminescent ternary complexes with terbium(III) EDTA. Th…

The main question of this paper is whether and to what extend lipid bilayers can aid in the polycondensation of amino acids and peptides. This means in particular how such bilayers can favor the selection of certain sequences out of a large number of theoretical possible ones. In a first series of experiments we start…

The electric self-heating behavior of graphite-powder-filled high-density polyethylene is studied. Two equations are proposed to describe the electric-field dependence of the self-heating temperature and resistance dependence of the critical field. Based on Ohmic and non-Ohmic approximations and the heat-dissipation m…

Numerical instability of the EMTP built-in model, the Saturable Transformer Component for the three-winding case, has been the topic of interest of the EMTP community for the past twenty years. Through theoretical analysis and computer simulation, the source of the numerical instability of the component is identified…

A highly polydisperse foam is subjected to a constant liquid flow from above. For sufficiently high flow rates, large-scale bubble motion is observed, in the course of which large bubbles rise to the top of the foam until a steady state is reached at which the average bubble size increases smoothly with height.

New mono- (5a–t, w) and biphotochromic (5u, v) 9′-styrylquinolinespirodihydroindolizines (DHIs) with IR-absorbing colored forms (4) were prepared. The conformation and configuration of these new DHIs were investigated by NMR studies and the structure was proved by x-ray analysis. The kinetics of the fast cyclizing pro…

An approach for the development of a new class of multifunctional photochromic liquid crystalline materials has been devised. Copolymerization of acrylic monomers allowed the preparation of ternary cholesteric copolymers containing nematogenic (phenyl benzoate), photochromic (azobenzene), and chiral photochromic side…

To clarify the influence of impurities on the sintering of SiC powder, three 6H‐SiC powder samples—with different levels of SiO 2 and aluminum impurities—were sintered with additions of boron and carbon. The densification, grain growth, and transformation of 6H‐SiC during sintering were studied qualitatively. The powd…

The mass of polyelectrolyte films adsorbed onto a surface during the deposition of a thin polymer film by a layer-by-layer sequential adsorption process was systematically controlled using a feedback system with a computer. For the deposition process, a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) with an integrated oscillation…

The chlorination of vulcanized styrene-butadiene rubbers (SBRs) with trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCI) has been studied. The solvent used to apply the TCI chlorinating solutions on the rubber plays an important role in the effectiveness of the treatment since the solvent determined the degree of penetration of TCI into…

The static electric dipole polarizabilities and second-order hyperpolarizabilities of several bare boron clusters have been calculated with density functional theory. The average second-order hyperpolarizability γav reaches a saturation limit of about 50,000 a.u. already with B5 for a given type of structure. The aver…

The geometry, vibrational frequencies and stability of the structural isomers of small gallium nitride clusters (n = 2–4) have been investigated using density functional theory. The lowest energy structures are cyclic. The ground electronic state of the cyclic forms for n > 2 is the singlet state. All of the cyclic st…

A polymeric precursor method was used to synthesis PbTiO3 amorphous thin film processed at low temperature. The luminescence spectra of PbTiO3 amorphous thin films at room temperature revealed an intense single-emission band in the visible region. The visible emission band was found to be dependent on the thermal trea…
