Abstract The linear viscoelastic behavior of acrylonitrile‐butadiene‐styrene (ABS) polymers in the molten state, with different degrees of grafting, was investigated within the framework of Palierne's emulsion model. The main aim of the present study is to quantitatively analyze the effect of grafting degree on the st…
Ruthenium is one of the poorest catalysts for CO oxidation under normal conditions (low or medium O coverage and normal temperature). However, a recent study [Science 285, 1042 (1999)] reveals that, under femtosecond laser irradiation, CO2 can be formed on the Ru surface, and the reaction follows an electron-mediated…
Abstract Poly(butylene terephthalate‐ co ‐triethylene terephthalate) random copolymers of various compositions and molecular weights were synthesized in bulk and characterized in terms of their chemical structure and thermal and rheological properties. At room temperature all the copolymers were partially crystalline…
Abstract Two polyphosphonates having multiple flame‐retardant actions were synthesized by interfacial polycondensation of a bisphenol and dichlorophenylphosphine oxide using cetyl trimethyl ammonium chloride as a phase transfer catalyst (PTC) at 0°C. The polyphosphanates thus prepared were characterized by viscometry,…
We present a systematic Monte Carlo and numerical self-consistent field (NSCF) study of thin films consisting of grafted and free polymers in good solvent, for the range of densities found in most experiments. Above the overlap threshold for the grafted polymer, the two approaches agree well. Even at low densities, th…
Abstract Kinetics of the polyurethane formation between glycidyl azide polymer (GAP) and a polyisocyanate, Desmodur N‐100, were studied in the bulk state by using quantitative FTIR spectroscopy. The reaction was followed by monitoring the change in intensity of the absorption band at 2270 cm −1 for NCO stretching in t…
A computation of the dynamical structure factor of topologically disordered systems, where the disorder can be described in terms of Euclidean random matrices, is presented. Among others, structural glasses and supercooled liquids belong to that class of systems. The computation describes their relevant spectral featu…
The application of a sufficiently large magnetic field in ${\mathrm{Pr}}_{0.63}{\mathrm{Ca}}_{0.37}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ can enforce a ferromagnetic state, resulting in an ``insulator-metal'' transition owing to both actuation of double-exchange mechanism and charge-order melting. In the present study, the low-temperatu…
Compressed open–cell solid foams frequently exhibit spatially heterogeneous distributions of local stretch. The theoretical aspects of this deformation habit have not been clearly elucidated. Here we propose a simple nonlinear model aimed at illustrating the most salient features of the micromechanics of uniaxially st…
Dipolar transitions in the magnetic cluster ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{8}$ and its derivative ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{8}$-perchlorate $({\mathrm{Fe}}_{8}\mathrm{PCL})$ have been studied by coherent-source spectroscopy at frequencies 1.5--33 ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}1}$. Four magnetic transitions are observed between 2 and…
Abstract The fluoropolymer poly(vinylidene fluoride) was irradiated with γ rays to induce a polystyrene (PS) radiation grafting via an indirect method. Electron spin resonance and Fourier transform infrared studies were performed to identify the species that initiated the PS grafting. Specific experiments were perform…
We use single nanoparticle luminescence microscopy to determine a distribution of individual chromophores present in porous Si nanoparticles. From these distributions, we determine the average number of emitting chromophores in each nanoparticle and the fluorescence emission count rate of a single chromophore within t…
In canonical Monte Carlo simulations of chiral liquid crystals, generally cholesteric phases with nonequilibrium pitch were formed under periodic boundary conditions. In order to overcome system-size effects the phase diagram of chiral calamitic liquid crystals, described here by the chiral Gay–Berne fluid, was now st…
Abstract We prepared carboxylic acid group terminated linear polybutylene adipate (PBA) by melt polycondensation of adipic acid with 1,4‐butanediol in the presence of titanium(IV) isopropoxide (TIP) as a catalyst. High molecular weight branched PBAs were synthesized through the branching reaction between the carboxyli…
Abstract Dichlorotribromophenyl phosphate (DCTBPP) was synthesized via the reaction of tribromophenol and phosphorous oxychloride and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1 H‐NMR, thermogravimetric analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry. To impart durable flame retardancy the poly(ethylene terephthalate)…
The study of poly( n -butyl methacrylate) (PnBMA) by thermostimulated currents has been performed in order to give a better definition of the molecular mobility when crossing the glass transition. It reveals the existence of two dipolar relaxation modes: α, ascribed to the glass−rubber relaxation, and α‘, which might…
This paper describes a novel refractive index sensor with a guided-mode resonant grating (GMRG) filter. The GMRG filter is a narrowband wavelength reflection filter. The incident light is reflected at a resonance condition of incident angle and wavelength. When the grating filter is covered by a liquid to be tested, t…
We examine the Landau free energy surface of a diblock copolymer melt using self-consistent field theory. The topography of its surface is found to exhibit a low-energy pathway connecting the local minima associated with the cylindrical (C) and spherical (S) morphologies. The pathway corresponds to an epitaxial transi…
Abstract Bis(diisopropyl)thiophosphoryl disulfide (DIPDIS) was used successfully as a novel coupling agent cum accelerator to co‐vulcanize the elastomer blend comprising highly unsaturated natural rubber (NR) and ethylene propylene diene rubber (EPDM) of low unsaturation content. The blend vulcanizates produced exhibi…
The origin of the first sharp diffraction peak (FSDP) in the total structure factor of disordered network-forming glasses and liquids is frequently interpreted either as resulting from crystalline-like layers or from correlations between basic structural units (clusters) and interstitial voids. By applying appropriate…
