Abstract Peptide polymer nanotubes (PPNTs) were prepared by in situ surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) from self‐assembled cyclic peptide nanotubes. PPNT dimensions, i.e. , height ( i.e. diameter) and length, as derived from AFM measurements of surface‐adsorbed, dry PPNT are a function of th…

The enhanced high‐temperature creep resistance in alumina/single‐wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) composites has been attributed to the unprecedented grain‐boundary structure of these composites, where the SWNTs bundles segregated at the alumina grain boundaries partially impede grain‐boundary sliding. In this study, the…

Abstract In this work we extend classical molecular dynamics by coupling it with an electron transport model known as the two temperature model. This energy balance between free electrons and phonons was first proposed in 1956 by Kaganov et al . but has recently been utilized as a framework for coupling molecular dyna…

Abstract Minor amounts of poly(ethylene‐ co ‐methacrylic acid) ionomer neutralized with Zn (PEMA‐Zn) were added in the melt state to blends of polypropylene (PP) with up to 40% of poly(amino ether) (PAE) resin. Given the good barrier characteristics of PAE, it is a good candidate to improve the poor barrier properties…

Rare‐earth oxides are doped into ZnO varistors as grain growth inhibitors for increasing the varistors' voltage gradients. However, their leakage currents become large and their nonlinear coefficients decrease at the same time. The reasonable explanation for such a phenomenon has not yet been available. In this paper,…

The oxidation behavior of reaction‐bonded porous silicon carbide (RPSC) ceramics in dry oxygen between 1100° and 1500°C was investigated based on four specimens with different porosities. RPSC ceramics exhibited a rapid mass increase in the initial stage of oxidation but a slow mass increase in the following oxidation…

Munden and earlier workers established that in plain knitted fabrics the fabric dimensional parameters namely Kc, Kw and Ks are constant at dry and wet relaxed state for wool, cotton, orlon and nylon yarns. But in the present study of cotton/lycra core spun yarn single jersey derivative knitted fabrics the values for…

Das Wachstum von Au- und Ag2S-Nanopartikeln an bestimmten Stellen von CdS-Nanostäben mit CdSe-Keimen lässt sich über die Konzentration der Au- bzw. Ag-Vorstufe steuern. Auf diese Weise sind „Janus“-Nanostabstrukturen zugänglich, in denen Au am reaktiveren Ende und Ag2S am anderen Ende zu finden ist (siehe Bild; CdSe d…

Thin films of 0.5% Ca‐doped La 0.995 Ca 0.005 NbO 4−δ (LCNO) proton‐conducting electrolytes of ∼2 μm thickness were obtained by pulsed laser deposition on NiO–LaNbO 4 composite substrates. The morphology of the films was granular after annealing at T ≤1000°C and evolved to spherical‐like grains at 1100°C and above. Th…

Static and dynamic (high‐rate) indentation hardness values are determined for ZrO 2 , SiC, and Si 3 N 4 ceramics. While the static hardness is determined using a conventional Vickers tester, the dynamic hardness is determined using a custom‐designed tester that can produce a single indent within a 100‐μs duration. The…
