We obtained the molecular weight and long chain branching distribution for polyolefins made with a combination of two single-site metallocene catalysts in a CSTR. Long chain branches are assumed to be formed by the incorporation of chains formed with a double bond end (macromers) at the catalyst sites. In the case whe…

Abstract Acrylic process aids have been widely used for decades in the production of both rigid and flexible PVC materials. Their advantages are well‐known and are briefly reviewed in this paper. Excessive use of process aids or selection of the wrong molecular weights may, however, lead to undesirable behavior ultima…

Studies on the dissolution of stressed crystals have shown that stress corrosion can lead to roughening of interfaces. The corrosion pattern develops due to gradients in elastic energy along a free crystal surface with an initial roughness. Dissolution will cause further increase in elastic energy, which in turn will…

Abstract Alternating poly(amide urea)s from ε-caprolactam, diamines H 2 N-(CH 2 ) x - NH 2 (x = 2 - 4), and diphenyl carbonate were prepared in two steps. The microstructure of the poly(amide urea)s, as determined by means of 1 H NMR spectroscopy, reveals a strictly alternating sequence of the building blocks. The mol…

The role of KOH in the one-stage KOH-activation of rice straws was studied using FTIR, XPS, TGA, and DTG techniques. It was found that at the impregnation, KOH extracts to some extent the lignin component from rice straw and reacts with hydroxyl groups. On heat-treatment, the impregnated KOH facilitates intermolecular…

Tyrosine hydroxylase (TyrH) catalyzes the hydroxylation of tyrosine to dihydroxyphenylalanine. In the proposed mechanism, a ferryl-oxo species attacks the aromatic ring of tyrosine, forming a cationic intermediate. However, no significant isotope effect is found for wild-type TyrH when 3,5-2H2-tyrosine is used as a su…

Strong blue emission is observed from Ti-doped MgAl 2 O 4 , yellow emission from a Mn-doped one and white light emission from a V-doped one. The optimum condition to obtain the strongest emission was studied by changing the doping density and growing atmosphere. The microscopic models for these emission processes are…

We have developed a new formulation of the coupled-wave method (CWM) to handle aperiodic lamellar structures, and it will be referred to as the aperiodic coupled-wave method (ACWM). The space is still divided into three regions, but the fields are written by use of their Fourier integrals instead of the Fourier series…

AISI type 304L stainless steel (SS) was assessed for its corrosion resistance in nitric acid solution. The effect of variation in nitric acid concentration (1 to 10N) and temperature (298 K, 313 K, 333 K, 348 K) on the corrosion resistance of 304L SS was investigated using potentiodynamic polarisation studies. The cor…

Both lighter- and hydrophobic heavier-than-liquid particles will float on liquid–air surfaces. Capillary forces cause the particles to cluster in typical situations identified here. This kind of clustering causes particles to segregate into islands and bands of high concentrations in thin liquid films rimming the insi…
