Abstract A radially vibrating horn is studied as a possible system for scaling up sonochemical reactors. The anisotropic behavior of this horn was demonstrated, as were strong correlations among the acoustic field, the acoustic streaming, and the sonochemical reactivity. A comparison with the classic laboratory horn e…

Abstract The durability of high‐density polyethylene (HDPE)/ paraffin blends as a thermal energy storage material was studied by investigation of the seepage behavior of paraffin. The HDPE in the blends serves to prevent paraffin seepage during repeated heating‐cooling cycles; i.e., the HDPE acts as a sealant material…

This work describes the synthesis and properties of a material with unusual photophysical behavior. The material, a gel, is made by interaction of (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane with a carboxylic acid under oxygen- and water-free conditions through a sol−gel process, and it emits different colors by excitation at diff…

Valve morphogenesis starts when the silica deposition vesicle (SDV) expands across a cleavage furrow covered by an unidentified layer, which may aid in its shaping. A labiate process (LP) is present only in the outer valve of terminal cells in the filament. Before these particular cells form setae, a layered “labiate…
