The dielectric and ferroelectric behaviors of relaxor ferroelectrics over the ferroelectric transition range are simulated using Monte Carlo simulation. The simulation is based on the Ginzburg–Landau ferroelectric model lattice in which a random distribution of two types of defects (dopants) which will suppress and en…

Abstract For [PMo 12 O 40 ] 3− , the presence of Li + produced a two‐electron wave at nearly the same potential as the first one‐electron wave in acetonitrile or acetone. The voltammetric behavior of [PMo 12 O 40 ] 3− in a binary mixture of acetonitrile and solvent S was compared with those in a mixture of acetone and…

Large size single transient cavitation bubbles of maximum diameter up to 3 cm with sonoluminescence have been generated in water by the `tube arrest' method. A simplified one-dimensional model of bubble growing and water column motion is proposed. The results of numerical simulation are compared with the experimental…

Abstract The electrochemical redox behavior of the polynuclear mixed valence ruthenium oxide cyanometallate complexes ( mv RuOxMCN, M=Fe, Cr, Ni, Cu, Ru and Pt) have been systematically studied in this report by using three redox sensitive organic probes of glucose, ethanol and formaldehyde. The results were interpre…

Abstract A dynamically photocrosslinked polypropylene (PP)/ethylene–propylene–diene (EPDM) rubber thermoplastic elastomer was prepared by simultaneously exposing the elastomer to UV light while melt‐mixing in the presence of a photoinitiator as well as a crosslinking agent. The effects of dynamic photocrosslinking and…

Monodisperse two-dimensional foams are produced by trapping a layer of equal-volume bubbles between two glass surfaces. The application of an appropriately angled or curved surface imposes a specific variation of the bubble area with position in the foam. With this easily demonstrated technique the foam can be created…

Sputter deposition of thin films using Xe gas instead of Ar is believed to suppress damage to the films caused by ion bombardment. To investigate the effects of Xe on ionic species in the rf plasma, and on the growth of ZnO thin films, rf plasmas generated using Xe and Ar sputtering gases were analyzed using Langmuir…

Introduction The glass transition in noncrystalline polymers under ordinary experimental conditions occurs on cooling when the characteristic time of molecular motions responsible for structural rearrangements becomes longer than the timescale of the experiment. As a result, structural relaxation toward equilibrium is…

Abstract Natural fibers are rich in cellulose and they are a cheap, easily renewable source of fibers with the potential for polymer reinforcement. The presence of large amounts of hydroxyl groups makes natural fibers less attractive for reinforcement of polymeric materials. Composites made from polystyrene (PS)/styre…

The propagation of magneto-inductive waves in a one-dimensional array of “swiss roll” metamaterial has been studied. It was found that long-range interactions over the whole of the array must be included to describe the excitations accurately. Using the dispersion relations deduced from experimental data on pairs of e…
