A commercial oligosiloxane having two γ-hydroxypropyl endgroups and a number-average molecular weight (M̄n) around 1 000 Da was condensed with Bu2Sn(OMe)2 yielding tin-containing macrocycles but no polymers. These macrocycles reacted with γ-thiobutyrolactone by insertion of one thiolactone per Sn—O bond. When ε-caprol…
Small quantities of four cottons with distinctive hues ranging from light tan to cinnamon and green, grown by the University of Arizona, are converted into sliver and spun into both ring and rotor yarns using industrial-scale equipment. Fiber and yarn tests are performed in order to compare the cottons, and the yarns…
Glass is an under-cooled liquid that very slowly relaxes towards the equilibrium crystalline state. Its energy balance is ill understood, since it is widely believed that the glassy state cannot be described thermodynamically. However, the classical paradoxes involving the Ehrenfest relations and Prigogine–Defay ratio…
The electromechanical response of ceramics has long been described with Landau Devonshire phenomenology, wherein the strain response is linked to a polynomial expansion in electric field or dielectric displacement. Consequently, the electromechanical response has been modeled with a variety of basis functions. However…
In theory, physical crystals can be represented by idealized mathematical lattices. Under appropriate conditions, these representations can be used for a variety of purposes such as identifying, classifying, and understanding the physical properties of materials. Critical to these applications is the ability to constr…
Abstract Mesoporous TiO2 photocatalyst, which consisted of uniform mesopores (pore size about 4 nm) and with anatase framework and huge surface area as high as 329 m2 g−1, was prepared by selectively dissolving of silica in Ti–Si binary oxides.
Selected magnesium hydroxide and calcium carbonate fillers were dry coated with stearic acid and calcium, magnesium, and zinc stearates. The course of the coating reaction was monitored using a quantitative diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy method and by thermal analysis. The coated fillers w…
Abstract The optical properties of thiol‐stabilized CdTe nanocrystals have been examined. The thiol groups ‐SR generate a CdS shell at the interface, leading to a CdTe/CdS core—shell structure. The present paper describes our efforts to identify the influence of the CdTe–SR interface on the optical properties of the n…
Organic-inorganic hybrid materials offer the opportunity to combine the desirable properties of organic polymers (toughness, elasticity) with those of inorganic solids (hardness, chemical resistance). Since improved mechanical and chemical resistance is an increasing demand for various coating applications, hybrid mat…

Abstract New thermoplastic elastomers have been prepared from the blends of metallocene-based polyolefins (Engage) with low-density polyethylene (LDPE), and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers (EVA) of different grades with LDPE by electron beam modification. Structural changes of these blends with or without sensitizer…
We synthesized phosphorus-doped and boron-doped emitters by using trimethylphosphite P(OCH3)3 and trimethylborate B(OCH3)3 as doping sources in a microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition system. Based on our experimental results from scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectra, there is much difference among undo…
Abstract Three types of hydroxy groups, which are attributed to single, hydrogen-bonded and geminal SiOHs in mesoporous molecular sieve SBA-15 are directly and quantitatively observed by 1H ultrafast MAS NMR spectroscopy.
Ion irradiation damage experiments were performed on single crystals of the pyrochlore compound Er2Ti2O7 and the fluorite compound Er2Zr2O7. Results indicate that the pyrochlore compound is far more susceptible to defect accumulation and amorphization than the fluorite compound. In particular, Er2Ti2O7 irradiated with…
A recently developed theory concerning the physical limits on optical hyperpolarizabilities is shown to be useful in the theoretical prediction of contributions of multiphoton fluorescence to experimentally determined hyperpolarizability values. Recent experimental results are compared with the theoretical limit. With…
Abstract The reactions of 1,1′-bis(hydroxymethyl)ferrocene with primary amines such as 6-aminohexanol, cyclohexylamine, 4-phenylbutylamine, 2-isopropylaniline, 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzylamine, and 1-aminomethylferrocene in the presence of [RuCl2(PPh3)3] catalyst led to intermolecular condensation of the CH2OH and NH2 g…
The increasing use of semicrystalline polymers (SCP) in complex industrial structures, requires the development of reliable and predictive mechanical behavior models. The various approaches developed in the literature are considered and experimental results obtained from tests on PVF2 and on PA11 are presented. These…
We report the studies of the photoalignment properties of fluorinated polyvinylcinnamate (PVCN-F) films. The influence of film preparation and UV light irradiation conditions on anchoring properties were investigated. We have studied surface director reorientation in a magnetic field for various exposures and surface…
The phase behaviour of the discotic mesogen 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahexylthiotriphenylene (HHTT) was investigated under hydrostatic pressures up to 500 MPa using high pressure optical and DTA measurements. The known enantiotropic phase transitions of HHTT, i.e. crystal (Cr)-helical phase (H), H-hexagonal columnar phase (Col…
To further our study of the linear tensile behavior of irregular fibers, in this paper we examine the nonlinear tensile behavior of irregular fibers. As before, we simulate the fiber dimensional irregularities with sine waves of different magnitude and frequency, and report results on the tensile behavior and gauge le…
