Abstract In this work, agave fibers were blended with polystyrene to produce foamed and unfoamed composites. The effect of fiber size and density reduction on the morphological, thermal, mechanical, and rheological properties, as well as crystallinity and water absorption kinetics of the composites was assessed. The r…

O₂ adsorption is a key process for further understanding the mechanism of selective CO oxidation (SCO) on gold catalysts. Rate constants related to the elementary steps of O₂ adsorption, desorption and surface bonding, as well as the respective activation energies, over a nanosized Au/γ-Al₂O₃ catalyst, were determined…

Aluminum coatings are widely used as oxygen and water barrier layers on food packaging materials to protect the product from contamination and to extend its shelf life. Thin layers of aluminum, of the order of a few tens of nanometers, are thermally evaporated onto polymeric web in high speed roll-to-roll vacuum metal…

A series of vanadium substituted potassium hexagonal tungsten bronzes KxVyW1-yO3 (K-HTB) were prepared by conventional solid state method at 800 °C with compositions of x = 0.30 and 0.00 ? y ? 0.15. A mixture of K-HTB and non bronze phases with y ? 0.20 was observed. The proportion of this non bronze phase increases w…

We investigate the energy levels and optical properties of a circular graphene quantum dot in the presence of an external magnetic field perpendicular to the dot. Based on the Dirac–Weyl equation and assuming zero outward current at the edge of the dot we present the results for two different types of boundary conditi…

Biogenic polyamines are essential for cell growth and differentiation, while polyamine analogues exert antitumor activity in multiple experimental model systems, including breast and lung cancer. Dendrimers are widely used for drug delivery in vitro and in vivo. We report the bindings of biogenic polyamines, spermine…

The structure of Eu${}^{2+}$ monomer centers in CsBr single crystals is investigated using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. These centers are produced by heating the melt-grown crystals above 600 K in vacuum followed by a rapid quench to room temperature (RT) or 77 K. The angular dependence of their…

A unique approach was used to synthesize nanographene directly on insulating substrates with precise positioning control. The process is comprised of two steps: (i) deposition of carbon using focused ion beam induced deposition and (ii) annealing in vacuum at mid-high temperatures using metal foil as the catalyst mate…

A relatively thin structural film with low strain gradient is developed for micro-relay technology. Relays fabricated using this film as the structural material operate with relatively low pull-in voltage and hysteresis, which is desirable for achieving low-power and high-endurance relay integrated circuits. With the…

Abstract The blends of polystyrene (PS) and styrene‐butadiene rubber (SBR) are melt‐blended at different ratios to form physical thermoplastic elastomers. This polymeric blend is expected to behave more or less similar to chemically synthesized block copolymers such as styrene‐butadiene block copolymers (SBS). In this…

The potential solid oxide fuel cell cathode material Bi1-xSrxFeO3-δ exhibits low electrical conductivities (1-12 S cm-1 at 750°C) and is therefore especially susceptible for significant sheet resistance effects when investigated in thin film form. Impedance spectra of circular thin film microelectrodes of Bi1-xSrxFeO3…
