Abstract The shape of CdSe and other semiconductor nanocrystals is controlled, producing dots, rods, rice‐shaped particles, tetrapods, or other elongated shapes. Monomer concentration in the growth solution is the determining factor in shape‐control and shape‐evolution. The elongated shapes could be transformed into m…
By using seed‐mediation and careful control of pH , gold nanorods of high aspect ratio (∼ 18–25, 20 in the Figure) have been produced by surfactant‐directed synthesis. The yield is high (∼ 90 %) and the method can be readily adapted for scaling up.
Abstract A novel approach to the rational fabrication of smart and functional metal oxide particulate thin films and coatings is demonstrated on the growth of ZnO nanowires and oriented nanorod arrays. The synthesis involves a template‐less and surfactant‐free aqueous method, which enables the generation of, at large‐…
Abstract This article provides a comprehensive review of current research activities that concentrate on one‐dimensional (1D) nanostructures—wires, rods, belts, and tubes—whose lateral dimensions fall anywhere in the range of 1 to 100 nm. We devote the most attention to 1D nanostructures that have been synthesized in…
<div class="htmlview paragraph">With the recent interest in the possibilities of utilizing TPE materials as alternatives to flexible PVC (fPVC) in interior automotive applications, we have conducted a study of several soft touch polymer compounds in order to compare and contrast their characteristics with those…
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Laboratory testing and computer aided engineering (CAE) techniques have long been employed in the development and optimization of automotive bumper systems. However, as more aggressive automotive styling and performance trends and mass and cost reduction objectives continue to pus…
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Thixomolding (<span class="xref">1</span>) is a relatively new process in which the metallic slurry is injected into a die cavity tool at semi-solid or liquid temperatures to form near net-shape products from the solid feedstock. As part of on-going research into Thixo…
In an attempt to provide the low- and high-density polyethylene (LDPE and HDPE) plates with the autohesive and adhesive properties at lower grafted amounts, methacry-lamide (MAAm) was photografted onto their surfaces. The surfaces of the LDPE and HDPE plates were made highly hydrophilic by the photografting of MAAm, a…
<div class="htmlview paragraph">A study was performed on a lean NO<sub>x</sub> trap in which the loading of a ceria-containing mixed oxide in the washcoat was varied. After a mild stabilization of the traps, the time required to purge the NO<sub>x</sub> trap generally increased with incre…
Non-uniform distortion induced by superstructure domains has been observed during the ordering process of an order–disorder transformation in a single decagonal quasicrystal of Al 72 Ni 20 Co 8 . The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the fundamental reflections increased below the transformation temperature, T c .…
<div class="htmlview paragraph">The use of two-component polyurethane foam materials to improve sealing, stiffness, and crash performance in vehicle structures has increased significantly in the past 10 years. The proven cost and performance advantages associated with polyurethane chemistry, along with recent de…
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Simulation of catalytic exhaust gas aftertreatment systems is a cost and time saving method in the early development design stage to meet current and upcoming emission standards. Three-way catalytic (TWC) converter systems which target for 99% HC and NOx conversion need to be opti…

The approach is based on the assumption…
Abstract In past studies the oxygen inhibition effect on the UV curing of polymer coatings has been extensively studied with the focus on oxygen inhibition mechanism and photocuring kinetics. In this study, several advanced surface characterization techniques have been applied to investigate the influences of the pres…
The linear relationship, V = μ F where V is the interface velocity, μ is the mobility and F is the driving force is captured only under restricted conditions in conventional Monte Carlo simulations of recrystallization that use a bulk deformation stored energy term in the energy Hamiltonian. In this paper, the migrati…

<div class="htmlview paragraph">Presented in this paper is an on-line method for estimating the oxygen storage capacity contained within a catalyst. The oxygen storage capacity of a catalyst changes over time due to catalyst brick temperatures, poisoned catalyst sites, and thermal aging. Information regarding th…
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Reversible catalyst deactivation dynamics can have a significant effect on both conversion efficiency and post-catalyst EGO sensor distortion, yet are often ignored in conventional oxygen storage modeling for on-board catalyst control and OBD systems. The aim of the present paper…
We consider the demixing of a binary fluid mixture, under gravity, which is steadily driven into a two-phase region by slowly ramping the temperature. We assume, as a first approximation, that the system remains spatially isothermal, and we examine the interplay of two competing nonlinearities. One of these arises bec…
Various parameters in the structural features of the Sb x Ge 28− x Se 72 glassy system are studied as a function of average coordination number ⟨ r ⟩ in the light of recently proposed models for network glasses. The relation between the chemical ordered covalent network model and the constraint theory on the structura…
