Abstract Succinic anhydride (SuAh) was polymerized with various α , ω ‐alkanediols from 1,3‐propanediol up to 1,10‐decanediol. Most polycondensations were conducted in bulk at temperatures of 80 °C with bismuth triflate as catalyst and number average molecular weights ( $\overline M _{\rm n} {\rm s}$ , uncorrected SEC…

Corrosion inhibition of copper by tolytriazole (TTAH) in comparison with benzotriazole (BTAH) was investigated in unpolluted and sulfide polluted 3.5 % NaCl. Both TTAH and BTAH give approximately similar results in unpolluted salt water. Electrochemical techniques illustrate that TTAH gives about (40%) higher efficien…

Polylactides are commonly praised for their excellent mechanical properties (e.g. a high modulus and yield strength). In combination with their bioresorbability and biocompatibility, they are considered prime candidates for application in load-bearing biomedical implants. Unfortunately, however, their long-term perfor…

The structure and magnetic properties of Cr2O3 and Cr nanoparticles have been investigated. The as-prepared Cr nanoparticles show a core/shell structure, consisting of a Cr core and a thin Cr oxide shell with a thickness of 1.5–2.5 nm. Annealing the Cr nanoparticles in air leads to the formation of Cr2O3 nanoparticles…

We experimentally and numerically studied the transmission spectra of a combined metamaterial structure whose negative refractive index was supposed to be achievable only with simultaneously negative permittivity and permeability. However, it was found that the negativity of the refractive index of such a structure co…

The nominate varieties of the monoraphid diatoms Cocconeis pediculus EHRENBERG and C. placentula EHRENBERG are typified. Discrepancies from common concepts in Ehrenberg's types, habitats and descriptions were discovered which might affect our current understanding of both Cocconeis species. To ensure stabilization of…

The sol-gel process has been found to be successful in applications for the conservation and restoration of stone. However, a well-known drawback of the materials obtained by this process is their tendency to crack during drying inside the pores of the treated stone. In this article, we present an overview of our curr…
