The amorphous phase of hydrogenated carbon nitride, a -CN x :H (0 ≦ x ≦1), films may have clusters consisting of a mixture of sp 2 - and sp 3 -hybridized materials with cluster sizes of 0.2–2 nm. The hydrogen termination limits the size of the carbon and carbon nitride clusters. It also influences the mechanical prope…

The influence of impurities on the crystallization kinetics of NaCl was investigated in a fluidized bed crystallizer. The growth and dissolution rates were related to the supersaturation and impurity concentrations. The effect of different impurities on the growth rate of NaCl crystals can be divided into thermodynami…

The successful use of dipyrromethanecarbinols in rational routes to porphyrinic macrocycles requires catalysis conditions that enable irreversible condensation, thereby avoiding substituent scrambling and formation of undesired porphyrin products. Previously, successful conditions of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) (30 mM)…

A model for the population dynamics of Er3+ in tellurite glasses with high erbium concentrations is proposed. Luminescence decay curves from transitions of 4I13/2→4I15/2 and 4S3/2→4I15/2 were measured experimentally. Upconversion coefficients were obtained by numerically solving the rate equations of the model to fit…

Monazite was continuously coated onto Nextel 720 fibers, using an aqueous precursor and in‐line heat treatment at 900°–1300°C. Some experiments were repeated with alumina‐doped precursors. Coated fibers were heat‐treated for 100 h at 1200°C. Coatings were characterized by optical microscopy, scanning electron microsco…

Washed and unwashed rhabdophane (LaPO 4 · x H 2 O) sols were used to apply monazite coatings to 3M Nextel 720 and 610 fibers. This precursor was designed to minimize stress corrosion from gaseous decomposition products at high temperature. The coatings were heat‐treated in‐line at 900°–1300°C, in air, using a continuo…

This work deals with the factors affecting the reactivity of the CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-Fe2O3 mixture. Especially, the effect of the mixture's fineness and the effect of various additives are studied. Two groups of samples were studied. The first one consisted of limestone and clay mixtures having the same chemical compositio…

Bimetallic alloys have been considered in terms of their wetting behavior on semiconducting BaTiO3. In an earlier study, wetting behavior was strongly linked to ohmic contact behavior. However, the wetting behavior does not always correlate in the form of high work of adhesion-low contact resistance. The departure fro…

The interaction of reduced transition-metal porphyrins [e.g. PMn (II), PFe (II), PCo (II)] with oxygen species (· O 2 ·, H 2 + O ·/ HO ·, HOO ·, · O ·) involves radical/radical coupling to form covalent bonds. Coordinately unsaturated iron(II) porphyrins form two sigma bonds with · O 2 ·(-Δ G BF = 1–6 kcal mol -1 ) vi…

Abstract Flow‐induced coalescence in complex flow fields is studied using an in situ, real‐time small‐angle light scattering technique. Coalescence in a model polyisobutene–polydimethylsiloxane immiscible blend is triggered through step‐downs in the flow rate, creating a transition from a breakup‐controlled morphology…
