A study of the emulsification of silicone oil and water in the presence of partially hydrophobic, monodisperse silica nanoparticles is described. Emulsification involves the fragmentation of bulk liquids and the resulting large drops and the coalescence of some of those drops. The influence of particle concentration,…

An effective approach is demonstrated for growing large-area, hexagonally patterned, aligned ZnO nanorods. The synthesis uses a catalyst template produced by a self-assembled monolayer of submicron spheres and guided vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth on a single crystal alumina substrate. The ZnO nanorods have uniform s…

Abstract The thermoforming capacity of a number of blends of an ethylene‐vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH‐32, with 32 mol % ethylene) with amorphous polyamide (aPA) and/or Nylon‐containing ionomer with interest in multilayer food packaging structures have been studied. These blends were vacuum‐thermoformed between 100 an…

Abstract The thermal and mechanical properties of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE), poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL), and their blends were evaluated. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that increasing the PCL content of the blend did not change the LDPE melting temperature, but reduced the crystallinity by up to 16.8%…

The crystallization of racemic mandelic acid is studied in unseeded batch cooling experiments in four solvent systems. Apart from the thermodynamically stable racemic compound, a metastable modification of the racemic compound is also found to initially form upon nucleation. The metastable racemate is characterized by…

If the presence of crystal surfaces permits some of the dipole content of a dislocation array to leave the crystal to form intrusions or extrusions on the surface, then the dipole strength of the array, as defined in part I, can change by glide processes. It is confirmed that the energy difference between vacancy and…

Toxic elements found in wastes may have a negative impact on the environment, especially through the contamination of groundwater and plants. To reduce their mobility and availability, French regulations mandate the solidification and stabilization of toxic wastes. Many methods to stabilize and solidify wastes exist,…
