Abstract Low molecular-weight natural rubber (LNR) and LNR latex was prepared by oxidative degradation of de-proteinized natural rubber (DPNR) latex in the presence of 1 phr of K 2S2 O 8 and 15 phr of propanal, by shaking at 60 °C. The intrinsic viscosity [η] of DPNR with only K 2 S 2 O 8 decreased from 7.2 to 5.5 aft…

The zeolites belong to the category of high surface area ceramics. Their exceptional catalytic properties and performance as solid electrolytes are linked with the composition pore geometry, the distribution of T-atoms, and the nature and mobility of the adsorbed phases. Parallel conductivity and dielectric relaxation…

Optical scatterometry is a method for the on-line measurement of the geometry of a diffraction grating, which is deduced from diffraction-pattern data. We demonstrate the use of a neural network as a promising method for performing an accurate quantitative characterization of the geometry. As an example, we show the d…

ABSTRACT Atomic force microscopy was used to study edible films produced from whey proteins. The films were imaged under ambient conditions with no special sample preparation. Low resolution imaging of areas from 10 μm to 150 μm on a side was performed in the contact mode. Higher resolution scans of 350 nm to 2,700 nm…

Conducting polymers such as polypyrrole and polyaniline are being extensively studied for their use in a wide range of new products. These materials are unique in that they have switchable properties due to their 2 or more mechanically stable oxidation states. Thus, films or coatings can be easily switched by the appl…
