Electric discharge between the tip of an icicle and a plane electrode has been studied because of its relevance to the flashover of high voltage ice-covered insulators. A photomultiplier was used to scan the high voltage rod simultaneously with current measurement technique. The basic properties of streamers, namely t…

Environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR) is an important indicator of performance for high density polyethylene (HDPE) in structural and polymer pipe applications. The commonly used test for determining ESCR of HDPE can be time consuming and rather imprecise. A tensile strain hardening test was recently propose…

We investigated the structure of citrates adsorbed on Au nanoparticles ( AuNPs ) synthesized by the Frens method by Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). We found that physisorbed citrates are stable enough to stay on the surface of AuNPs during purification. The FT-IR spectra of citrates on AuNPs are quit…

Spatial resolution is a key parameter for the measurement of any distribution. In the case of space charge distribution measurements, it is difficult to compare technique performances since each technique has its own resolution definition most of the time. In this paper the resolution, in terms of position accuracy an…

Sol−gel processing via the modified nonalkoxide route resulted in the formation of nanocrystals of the corundum-type In 2 O 3 polymorph, which revealed characteristic rhombohedra with a morphology very close to cubes. Because the cubic bixbyite-type In 2 O 3 polymorph is more abundant under ambient conditions, the see…

The use of metallic alloys for a whole range of medical implants is justified by their superior mechanical properties (hardness, stiffness, etc.) compared, for example, to polymers. Other properties like biocompatibility or visibility in X-ray images also can be mentioned. One of their drawbacks is that electrochemica…
