Thermal conductivity measurements have been carried out on single crystals of ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}$ and ${\mathrm{KTaO}}_{3}$ in the presence of electric fields applied either perpendicular or parallel to the heat current. In the case of ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3},$ the response is surprisingly large: a 7 kV/cm parallel f…

A new low molar mass chiral-photochromic dopant was synthesized. It contains a menthyl fragment as the chiral group and an azobenzene group, capable of E - Z photoisomerization, as the photochromic component. The substance obtained was used as a chiral dopant in mixtures with a comb-shaped cholesteric acrylic copolyme…

Flax fibers with different moisture content were used as reinforcement in polypropylene matrix with maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene coupling agent. Mechanical properties-three point bending and Izod impact strength-were investigated as a function of moisture content of the fiber, and amount of applied coupling…

Whereas plants and animals use the alpha-aminoadipic acid pathway to catabolize lysine, yeast and fungi use the very same pathway to synthesize lysine. These two groups of organisms also possess structurally distinct forms of two enzymes in this pathway, namely lysine-oxoglutarate reductase (lysine-ketoglutarate reduc…

Attempts to build up polyanionic networks on the basis of thiocyanatometallates of CuI and AgI led to the synthesis of three new tris(thiocyanato)dimetallates(I) A[M2(SCN)3] with M = Cu, Ag and A = Me3NH and A = [Me2CNMe2]. The crystal structures show distorted tetrahedral [M(SCN)3(NCS)] and [M(SCN)2(NCS)2] building g…

We present a model for alloys of compound semiconductors by introducing a one-dimensional binary random system where impurities are placed in one sublattice while host atoms lie on the other sublattice. The source of disorder is the stochastic fluctuation of the impurity energy from site to site. Although the system i…

In this paper, the synthesis, photo-reaction and photo-induced liquid crystal alignment of a polyimide with a pendant cinnamate group are reported. The polyimide was synthesized by the thermal imidization of the polyamic acid derived from 4,4'-(hexafluoro-isopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride and hydroxydiaminopropane,…

The micromagnetic properties of multilayered MnBi/Al films have been investigated and compared to pure MnBi thin films. Pure MnBi films reveal an anomalous increase of the high temperature coercivity, which has been explained on the basis of a hybrid domain wall pinning model. The multilayer-type preparation of MnBi/A…

We report a novel method of imaging micropatterned self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) using adsorbed films of thermotropic (smectic or nematic) mesophase which can then be studied by optical microscopy. Three alkylthiols, functionalized with CH3, OH and COOH groups, were used in various combinations to form patterned SA…

The microfibrillar morphological structure of aliphatic polyamide fibers has been consistently presented by the three phase microfibrillar model proposed by Prevoršek and not by the two phase microfibrillar model proposed by Peterlin. A widely spread opinion is that the 3-phase or “Swiss-cheese” model is applicable in…

A new polyalcohol is prepared by reduction of the perfectly alternating ethylene−carbon monoxide copolymer. The low melting temperature of this atactic material (137 °C) is attributed to the 1,4-arrangement of the hydroxyl side groups. The different orientations of these slightly bulky groups with respect to the molec…
