Heat and moisture transport plays an important role in many engineering areas. In many sweat transport systems, such as clothing assembly, the moisture concentration (or sweat) is relative small and the air concentration reaches a steady state quickly. In this paper, a quasi-steady-state multi-component and multi-phas…

Abstract In this study, water was used as a coblowing agent in the carbon dioxide (CO2) extrusion foaming process in a twin screw extruder. It enlarged cell size and thus lowered foam density for better thermal insulation. Different strategies have been studied including direct injection of water into the extruder wit…

Abstract Two different alumina powders were dispersed in low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) to evaluate if any role can be ascribed to the crystalline phase, size and morphology of the alumina filler. In particular a submicrometric α‐alumina and a nanocrystalline transition (γ/δ) alumina were added to the polymer at 5 wt…

We present our study of the effect of substrate induced strain on La(5/8-y)Pr(y)Ca(3/8)MnO(3) (y = 0.45) thin films grown on LaAlO(3), NdGaO(3) and SrTiO(3) substrates that show large scale phase separation. It is observed that unstrained films grown on NdGaO(3) behave quite similarly to bulk material but the strained…

Sodium gadolinium fluoride nanocrystals have been prepared in the solvent N -(2-hydroxyethyl)-ethylenediamine (HEEDA) at 200 °C. The formation of the cubic and the hexagonal phase in the synthesis can be controlled by properly adjusting the concentration of fluoride and the ratio between sodium and gadolinium. The abs…

Abstract DFT and TDDFT calculations at the level of PBE0/6‐31G(d)/6‐31+G(d) were performed systematically on seven porphyrins with symmetrical meso‐substitutents. Our results show that the planarity of the free base porphyrin (BP) are affected by the introduction of substitutents at the meso‐position of the ring. Geom…
