Abstract Muscovite-kaolinite intergrowths found in Albian sandstones of the Basque Cantabrian basin (northern Spain) were studied by optical, scanning and electron microscopy and electron microprobe analysis. Kaolinitization begins at grain edges, forming the characteristic fanned-out textures, and propagates toward t…

A new and general synthetic strategy for thiophene-based condensed aromatics(see Figure) is described. A tandem cyclization scheme produces aromatized monomers in situ, prior to oxidative polymerization. The poly(naphthodithiophene)s are a family of highly stable and polarizable scaffolds whose polymer backbone energe…

Abstract Mechanical properties and morphologies of nylon 11/ethylene‐octene copolymer blends have been investigated. The ethylene‐octene copolymer (POE) employed in this study was grafted with maleic anhydride (MAH) and thus has the potential to react with the amine group of nylon 11. Nylon 11/POE‐g‐MAH and nylon 11/P…

This paper shows that the dielectric anisotropy of conductivity in cells composed of nematic liquid crystal E7 (NLC-E7) is related to the fact that the diffusion constant (D) is greater in a cell with homeotropic alignment than in one with homogeneous alignment (D ∥ > D ⊥). This behaviour can be understood by the stud…

Nucleating agents are used in semi-crystalline polymer systems (mainly polyolefins) to increase the rate of crystallization. These agents increase degree of crystallinity and lamellae thickness and, hence, improve stiffness and strength. In addition to altered mechanical characteristics, clarifying agents do also impr…
