A variable-duty cycle-pulsed radio frequency discharge is shown to provide film chemistry control during plasma polymerization of acryloyl chloride. A nonlinear dependence is observed between the percent retention of acid chloride groups in the deposited films and the average power input during plasma polymerization.…

The crystal structure of poly( tert- butylethylene sulfide) (PTBES) determined in 1977 by Matsubayashi et al. ( Macromolecules 1977, 10, 996) is reexamined. Single crystals, of an unusual triangular shape, and epitaxially crystallized samples have been obtained and investigated by electron microscopy and electron diff…

Fine gold (Au) particles were formed by photochemical and thermal processes in silica/titania glassy films. Photoreduction and/or thermal gelation of films dip-coated from silica/titania precursor solutions including Au(III) ions yielded gold particles. Particle formation was accompanied by changes in the surface plas…

Organosilicon tetraphenylporphyrins (Si(TPP)R2) with alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, and aryl groups at the axial positions (R) were synthesized. X-ray crystallographic studies demonstrated that the porphyrin ligands are virtually “planar” in Si(TPP)(CH2CH2CH3)2 and Si(TPP)(CHCH2)2, nearly planar but slightly “waved” in Si(T…

Uniform colloidal particles of thorium and cesium tungstophosphates of different morphologies have been prepared by controlled precipitation. The method consists of direct reaction of aqueous solutions of salts of the corresponding metals and tungstophosphoric acid, H 3 PW 12 O 40, at elevated temperatures (90 °C) und…

Thin films of p-type doped polythiophene were found to react rapidly but irreversibly with ammonia and water, whereas the loss of conductivity was largely reversible by evacuation in p-type doped polypyrrole. The interaction between compensating agents such as ammonia and water with p-type doped polythiophene and poly…

Numerous experiments have shown that strain broadening caused by dislocations can be well described by a special logarithmic series expansion of the Fourier coefficients of Bragg reflection peak profiles. In the present work it will be shown that this formalism can be incorporated into the classical methods of William…

The chemisorption of trimethylaluminum on dehydrated mesoporous MCM-41 is described. The sorption capacity of the silicate material was examined by addition of various amounts of the organoaluminum reagent and monitored by elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, and nitrogen physisorption measurements. Multinuclear ( 1…

Polymer/liquid crystal (LC) composite films possessing an azobenzene LC as a photoresponsive molecule (AzoCFs) were prepared by the thermal polymerization-induced phase separation method. The composite films (AzoCFs) showed a strong light-scattering state after polymerization, and their optical properties were strongl…

Polymer-containing silicate gels were hydrothermally crystallized to form layered magnesium silicate hectorite clays containing polymers that are incorporated in situ. Gels consist of silica sol, magnesium hydroxide sol, lithium fluoride, and the polymer of choice. Dilute solutions of gel in water are refluxed for var…

We consider the behavior of an Ising ferromagnet obeying the Glauber dynamics under the influence of a fast switching, random external field. After introducing a general formalism for describing such systems, we consider here the mean-field theory. A novel type of first order phase transition related to spontaneous sy…

We consider the behavior of an Ising ferromagnet obeying the Glauber dynamics under the influence of a fast switching, random external field. In Part I, we introduced a general formalism for describing such systems and presented the mean field theory. In this article we derive results for the one dimensional case, whi…

We consider a randomly forced particle moving in a finite region, which rebounds inelastically with coefficient of restitution r on collision with the boundaries. We show that there is a transition at a critical value of r, r_c\equiv e^{-π/\sqrt{3}}, above which the dynamics is ergodic but beneath which the particle u…

Three-dimensional molecular dynamics simulations of dissipative particles (~ 10^6) are carried out for studying the clustering kinetics of granular media during cooling. The inter-connected high particle density regions are identified, showing tube-like structures. The energy decay rates as functions of the particle d…

Double W/O/W emulsions consist in an inverse emulsion which is dispersed within a water continuous phase as direct emulsion droplets. The aim of this paper is to explore the basic rules that govern the stability of double emulsions. By associating both water- and oil-soluble surfactants in various concentrations, we p…

The modelling of silica glass, following the work of Le Bail [1], has been introduced in a Rietveld general procedure developed for quantitative phase analysis. The method approximates the amorphous phase as a nanocrystalline solid where the long-range order is lost. As pointed out by the same author, the model is not…

Orientation and purification of carbon nanotubes have been demonstrated using ac electrophoresis in isopropyl alcohol. Nanotubes move towards the electrodes for all frequencies of applied electric field from 10 Hz to 10 MHz. However, carbon particles contained as impurites become harder to move with increasing frequen…
