Abstract In polymer blends, the composition and microcrystalline structure of the blend near surfaces can be markedly different from the bulk properties. In this study, the enzymatic degradation of poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) and its blends with poly(styrene‐ co ‐acrylonitrile) (SAN) was conducted in a phosphate buffer…

Abstract A series of eight polyurethane elastomers was prepared using a two‐step bulk polymerization procedure to investigate the effect of the siloxane chain extender 1,3‐bis(4‐hydroxybutyl)1,1,3,3‐tetramethyldisiloxane (BHTD) on polyurethane properties and morphology. All polyurethanes were based on 40 wt % hard seg…

We use quantum-mechanical modeling to study the effect of local and long-range disorder on the incorporation energy, optical, IR, and XPS spectra of a peroxy linkage defect in amorphous silica $(a\ensuremath{-}{\mathrm{SiO}}_{2}).$ We discuss the methods to simulate amorphous structures and investigate to which extent…

Despite extensive investigation of Bombyx mori silk fibroin structures by many experimental methods, e.g., X-ray diffraction, molecular modeling calculation, and solid static 13 C NMR spectroscopy, a set of fingerprint structural parameters remains unavailable both for the silk I and the silk II forms. In this study,…

Abstract The interfacial reaction of the polyethylene (PE)/starch blend system containing the reactive compatibilizer maleated polyethylene (m‐PE) was directly characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. A significant amount of anhydride groups on m‐PE existed as hydrolyzed forms, resulting in a l…

We study theoretically the thermodynamic properties and spin dynamics of a class of magnetic rings closely related to ferric wheels, antiferromagnetic ring systems, in which one of the Fe (III) ions has been replaced by a dopant ion to create an excess spin. Using a coherent-state spin path integral formalism, we deri…

Abstract The postpolymerization of vinyl acetate (VAc)‐containing latexes with tert ‐butyl hydroperoxide (TBH)/ascorbic acid (AsA) as a redox initiation system was investigated. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as acetone and tert ‐butyl alcohol were produced in this process. The influence of the TBH/AsA ratio,…

Deposition of silane-based self-assembled monolayers onto mesoporous ceramic substrates has been found to be substantially faster from supercritical fluids than from typical condensed phase solutions. In addition, the monolayers so prepared display higher silane population density (6.5 vs 4.6 silanes/nm 2 ), fewer def…

Abstract Lignin, extracted from sugarcane bagasse by the organosolv process, was used as a partial substitute of phenol (40 w/w) in resole phenolic matrices. Short sugarcane fibers were used as reinforcement in these polymeric matrices to obtain fiber‐reinforced composites. Thermoset polymers (phenolic and lignophenol…

The degree of ionisation of a two-dimensional electron-hole plasma is calculated in the low-density (Boltzmann) limit. The electron-hole interaction is considered for all states: optically active and inactive, bound and unbound. The theory is applied to exciton/free-carrier plasma in GaN-based quantum wells at room te…

A numerical method based on the transfer matrix technique is developed to calculate the luminescence spectra of complex layered structures with photon recycling. Using this method we show a strong dependence of the emission spectra on the optical eigenmode structure of the device. The enhancement of the photon recycli…
