The strength degradation of alumina/alumina:calcium‐hexaluminate/alumina trilayers, after damage from Hertzian contacts, is evaluated. Relative to the monolithic alumina and alumina:calcium‐hexaluminate constituent layer materials, the trilayers show markedly improved strength retention in the damaged state at high co…

We have used small-angle scattering to study the calcium dependence of the interactions between calmodulin (CaM) and skeletal muscle myosin light chain kinase (MLCK), as well as the conformations of the complexes that form. Scattering data were measured from equimolar mixtures of a functional MLCK and CaM or a mutated…

Thin, homogeneous films of a high electron affinity (n-dopable) polymer, poly(3,4-dicyanothiophene) (PDCTh), were prepared by in-situ thermal polymerization of 2,5-diiodo-3,4-dicyanothiophene on substrates. As a result of the presence of two cyano substituents on the thiophene backbone, PDCTh is an electronegative pol…

A model graft copolymer in which position of graft points was set to the center of a backbone molecule was prepared via anionic living polymerization. Polystyrene-block-poly(p-tert-butoxystyrene)-block-polystyrene (PSt-b-PBSt-b-PSt) was prepared by three-stage sequential addition. The tert-butyl group was removed from…

The correlation between paramagnetic defects and the electron emission in diamond films, which were deposited by the chemical vapor deposition method, has been studied using electron-spin-resonance (ESR) and field-emission measurements. The paramagnetic defects, which are a carbon dangling bond in the diamond layer (P…

Radiation effects on the formation of conjugated double bonds in the thermal degradation of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) were investigated. Thin films of PVC and PVA were either irradiated with γ-rays at ambient temperature (pre-irradiation) and then subjected to thermal treatment, or irrad…

Abstract A novel scheme for simulating the selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH 3 on a honeycomb‐type catalyst was developed based on a 3‐D model. New insight was gained by considering such modeling aspects as: correct geometry (square ducts); hydrodynamic entrance effects; occurrence of adsorption phenomena an…

An oxalic acid-based system for chemically retting flax is tested and compared with enzymatic retting. The retting effect is substantially higher at pH 10 and 11 than at lower pH levels, and the optimal oxalic acid concentration is 50 mmol. The presence of the strong detergent sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) further enha…
