A variety of smectic phase diagrams involving smectic-isotropic and smectic-nematic-isotropic transitions have been calculated based on a combination of Flory–Huggins (FH) theory for isotropic mixing and Maier–Saupe–McMillan (MSM) theory for smectic-A ordering of liquid crystals (LC). To describe the mesophase transit…

Abstract Liquid‐crystalline monomers containing two vinyl groups, two mercapto groups, or a 1:1 combination of the two have been synthesized and characterized in terms of their mesomorphic properties. These monomers can be photopolymerized in situ in an appropriate ratio of vinyl and mercapto groups to form highly ord…

A long-standing and important problem in glass science has been carrier-type reversal (CTR) in semiconducting glasses. This phenomenon is exhibited by Pb−Ge−Se glasses also. It has been addressed here by carrying out detailed electrical, thermal, and spectroscopic investigations. Pb x Ge 42 - x Se 58 ( x = 0−20) glass…

A family of bis(porphyrin) zirconium sandwich complexes containing octaethylporphyrin (OEP) and octaethyltetraazaporphyrin (OETAP) was synthesized and characterized by UV−vis and NMR spectroscopies. The two ligands are structural analogues yet have dramatically different redox properties (the redox potentials of OETAP…

In the past two decades, the assessment of thermal risks linked to the practice of chemical reactions on an industrial scale has made great progress. Nowadays chemists understand these risks and are able to assess them. Nevertheless, incidents still occur which indicate that some weaknesses still exist, especially in…

Several primary amines (R-NH(2)) were converted to their corresponding O-benzoyl protected hydroxamates under biphasic conditions. The intermediate (benzoyloxy)amines (R-NHOCOPh) were generated using benzoyl peroxide dissolved in CH(2)Cl(2) and an aqueous carbonate buffer (pH 10.5) at room temperature. Subsequent acyl…

Shape memory alloys exhibit a high damping capacity in the mktensite state. Results obtained from both DMA and cyclic tests under tension-compression load show that the martensite damping capacity in NiTi SMAs is a function of both strain amplitude and annealing temperature. Internal friction due to movements of marte…

Nanostructured silica powders are synthesized by a nonpyrolytic, room-temperature aero-sol−gel process. Hydrolysis and condensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) precursors produce nanosized silica powders that have specific surface areas greater than 400 m 2 /g. This paper reports on a nov…

The nucleation of corrosion pits on stainless steel in chloride environments is described in terms of minute transient currents recorded under high resolution. Nucleation is fast, showing a rise time less than 1 ms, and is ascribed to rupture of the passivating oxide film, caused by the formation of microscopic patche…
