Abstract Sisal fiber (SF) surface modification was carried out by grafting with methyl methacrylate (MMA) using cerium and ammonium nitrate as initiator. The effects of reaction time, monomer, and initiator concentration on the grafting parameters were systematically investigated. The results showed that MMA was succe…
Amorphous tin oxide films, 100–800 nm thick and of resistivity ∼6–8 mΩ cm, were deposited on glass substrates using a filtered vacuum arc with an oxygen background gas pressure of 4.0 mTorr. The films were annealed in air at a temperature of 300°C for 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 min. Film morphology, structure, composition, ro…
The coexistence between a strained crystal and its shearing melt is studied using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of Lennard-Jones particles. The coexistence is found to be independent of initial conditions, boundary effects, and the details of the thermostat. The nonequilibrium phase diagram is presente…
Abstract The crystallization behaviors of polypropylene (PP) homopolymer and its blends with 0–15% functional polypropylene (FPP), the backbones of which were grafted with guanidine and diamide polymer chains, were investigated with differential scanning calorimetry and wide‐angle X‐ray scattering. The crystallization…
Crown-ether cyanide treatment, which simply involves immersion in KCN solutions containing 18-crown-6 followed by rinse, is studied in relation to electrical and optical properties of nitrogen-doped, polycrystalline Cu2O thin films, and its effect is compared with that of hydrogen treatment. By the crown-ether cyanide…
The syntheses and structural, spectral, and electrochemical characterization of the dioxo-bridged dinuclear Mn(III) complexes [LMn(mo-O)(2)MnL](ClO(4))(2), of the tripodal ligands tris(6-methyl-2-pyridylmethyl)amine (L(1)) and bis(6-methyl-2-pyridylmethyl)(2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl)amine (L(2)), and the Mn(II) complex of bis…
We develop a simple to implement, inherently parallel and high throughput technique for the fabrication of large areas of patterned aligned multi-wall carbon nanotube (CNT) arrays deposited on silicon or quartz substrate. This technique makes use of a parallel or converging laser beam from a high power pulsed laser fo…
The binding interactions between the pyridine and small coinage metal clusters such as copper, silver and gold in different sizes (n=2–4) have been investigated by a density function theory approach. We obtain the binding energies of these pyridine–metal cluster complexes and analyze the nature of the binding interact…
Abstract In this study, we prepared a series of polymer–clay nanocomposite (PCN) materials that consisted of an emeraldine base of poly( o ‐methoxyaniline) and layered montmorillonite. Organic o ‐methoxyaniline monomers were first intercalated into the interlayer regions of organophilic clay hosts followed by a one‐st…
The microstructures of two poly(propylene)s with matched molar masses and overall defect concentrations are inferred from the crystallization behavior of their narrow molar mass fractions. One poly(propylene) was produced with a MgCl 2 -supported Ziegler−Natta catalyst and the other with a metallocene catalyst. The fr…
Using a vapor transport method, ZnO nanowires were selectively synthesized both on tungsten tips as electron field emitters and on tungsten plates with designed patterns. Control of the growth locations of the nanowires was accomplished by selectively positioning a thin film of Au catalyst. The angular intensity and f…
The well-known oxophilicity of aluminum(III) ion and the well-defined redox and photochemical properties of aluminum(III) porphyrins have been exploited to synthesize the functionally active, 'axial-bonding’-type free base–aluminum(III) porphyrin dimer (H2–Al) and free base–[aluminum(III) porphyrin]2 trimer (H2–Al2),…
This article presents a fuzzy logic–based method for representing and analyzing results of subjective evaluation on the fabric hand given by experts in fashion or quality inspection. This method permits the generation of a quantitative criterion characterizing the quality of textile products and modeling relationships…
Ab initio plane-wave total-energy calcuation is carried out to study the relative stability of the quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) pentagon and hexagon ice nanotubes. Electronic structure calculations indicate the two Q1D ice nanotubes have nearly the same band structures and energy bandgap as those of proton-ordered bulk…
Abstract A vermiculite (VMT) dispersion in water was blended with aqueous poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). The properties of the PVA–VMT nanocomposites greatly depended on the preparation procedure because of the chemical reactions and physical interactions involved. The samples were prepared in two steps to investigate the…
The synthesis of a ligand containing as an electroactive core a tetrathiafulvalene moiety, 3-[3-(diphenylphosphino)propylthio]-3',4,4'-trimethyl-tetrathiafulvalene, is reported. Its versatile ability to act as a bidentate or a monodentate ligand, as demonstrated by the metal carbonyl complexes obtained, is described.…
Abstract The miscibility, crystallization behavior, and component interactions of two binary blends, poly( L ‐lactide) ( L ‐PLA)/poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) and poly( D , L ‐lactide) ( DL ‐PLA)/PVP, were studied with differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The composition…
We show that single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) fibers produced by the particle-coagulation spinning process possess a well-developed hierarchical skin−core structure. Primary SWNTs are organized in bundles that are 10−30 nm in diameter. The nanotube bundles form elementary filaments, which constitute the fiber skin,…
We measured thermoelectric power S of bulk single-wall carbon nanotube materials p doped with acids. In contrast to oxygen-exposed or degassed samples, S is very small at the lowest temperatures, increases superlinearly above a characteristic and sample-dependent T, and then levels off. We attribute this unusual behav…
Abstract The effects of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), sodium polyacrylate (NaPA), poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), pectin (P), and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) on the corrosion of cadmium in a 0.5 M hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution were studied with both electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and T…
