Polymer burnout (pyrolysis or delubrication) is a crucial step in sintering die compacted powders. To systematically analyse and design the thermal delubrication step, the master decomposition curve (MDC) has been formulated based on the intrinsic kinetics of polymer pyrolysis. The Kissinger method was used to estimat…

Abstract The best answer to what is the melting temperature of PVC is its previous processing temperature. That temperature is where secondary crystallites, created by gelation, melt and allow the primary particle flow units to flow again independently. In the case of powder compounds being processed for the first tim…

Abstract Ternary composites composed of polyoxymethylene (POM), polyurethane (PU), and boehmite alumina were produced by melt blending with and without latex precompounding. Latex precompounding served for the predispersion of the alumina particles. The related masterbatch (MB) was produced by mixing the PU latex with…

Abstract The problem of structure investigation of thin films using laboratory XRD diffraction intensities was discussed as a matter of debate. Is the variation in relative intensities of the diffraction patterns due to crystallographic preferred orientation, lattice defects or both? The answer to this question shows…

Abstract A novel ferrocene‐based epoxy compound of glycidyl ester of 1,1′‐ferrocene dicarboxylate was synthesized by the reaction of 1,1′‐ferrocene dicarboxylate and epichlorohydrin. The resultant epoxy compound showed an irreversible redox process in cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurement. The curing behavior of glycidy…

We have applied positron annihilation spectroscopy combined with sheet resistance measurements to study the electrical isolation of thin ZnO layers irradiated with 2 MeV ${\text{O}}^{+}$ ions at various fluences. Our results indicate that Zn vacancies, the dominant defects detected by positrons, are produced in the ir…

We report optical properties of the smallest single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with a diameter of only 3 A. These ultrasmall SWNTs are fabricated in the elliptical nanochannels of an AlPO-11 (AEL) single crystal. Polarized and resonant Raman scattering unambiguously revealed that these 0.3 nm SWNTs are of (2,2) a…
