Experiments were performed with binary metal alloys to validate a continuum mixture model for alloy solidification. Ingots of two compositions, Pb-20%Sn and Pb-40%Sn, were cast in a permanent mold, and the solidification process was simulated. Temperature histories were measured during casting, and composition profile…

Localized corrosion phenomena, including pitting corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, and corrosion fatigue, are the principal causes of corrosion-induced damage in electric power-generating facilities and typically result in more than 50 percent of the unscheduled outages. In this paper, we describe a deterministic…

A variety of smectic phase diagrams involving smectic-isotropic and smectic-nematic-isotropic transitions have been calculated based on a combination of Flory–Huggins (FH) theory for isotropic mixing and Maier–Saupe–McMillan (MSM) theory for smectic-A ordering of liquid crystals (LC). To describe the mesophase transit…

A pressurized differential scanning calorimeter (PDSC) has been used to obtain information on the combustion characteristics of crude oils and their mixtures in two chemically different matrix materials, sand and limestone. Crude oil and sand−limestone mixtures were prepared to give a composition of 10 wt % crude oil…

Abstract Liquid‐crystalline monomers containing two vinyl groups, two mercapto groups, or a 1:1 combination of the two have been synthesized and characterized in terms of their mesomorphic properties. These monomers can be photopolymerized in situ in an appropriate ratio of vinyl and mercapto groups to form highly ord…

A long-standing and important problem in glass science has been carrier-type reversal (CTR) in semiconducting glasses. This phenomenon is exhibited by Pb−Ge−Se glasses also. It has been addressed here by carrying out detailed electrical, thermal, and spectroscopic investigations. Pb x Ge 42 - x Se 58 ( x = 0−20) glass…

In the past two decades, the assessment of thermal risks linked to the practice of chemical reactions on an industrial scale has made great progress. Nowadays chemists understand these risks and are able to assess them. Nevertheless, incidents still occur which indicate that some weaknesses still exist, especially in…

Several primary amines (R-NH(2)) were converted to their corresponding O-benzoyl protected hydroxamates under biphasic conditions. The intermediate (benzoyloxy)amines (R-NHOCOPh) were generated using benzoyl peroxide dissolved in CH(2)Cl(2) and an aqueous carbonate buffer (pH 10.5) at room temperature. Subsequent acyl…

Shape memory alloys exhibit a high damping capacity in the mktensite state. Results obtained from both DMA and cyclic tests under tension-compression load show that the martensite damping capacity in NiTi SMAs is a function of both strain amplitude and annealing temperature. Internal friction due to movements of marte…

Nanostructured silica powders are synthesized by a nonpyrolytic, room-temperature aero-sol−gel process. Hydrolysis and condensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) precursors produce nanosized silica powders that have specific surface areas greater than 400 m 2 /g. This paper reports on a nov…
