Abstract Kaolin samples from the Jari deposit (Amazon region) were studied using various techniques to characterize its structural and crystallochemical aspects, and to establish its origin and evolution. A profile 60 m thick was selected in a kaolin mine (Morro do Felipe) located at the banks of the Jari river. Despi…

We have identified a new defect at the intersection between grain boundaries and surfaces in Au using atomic resolution transmission electron microscopy. At the junction line of 90 degrees <110> tilt grain boundaries of (110)-(001) orientation with the free surface, a small segment of the grain boundary, about 1 nm in…

Equivalent salt deposit density (ESDD) is widely used to describe the state of contaminated insulators. In this paper, a new method of ESDD on-site measurement is studied. Two types of sensors are designed, which can not only carry enough water for the contamination on the insulator surface to dissolve and cover the i…

Abstract Passive films on physical vapour deposited alloys, based on 304L with additions of 20 at.% of molybdenum and tungsten, were studied with angle‐resolved XPS. The samples were anodically polarized in a sulphate solution to potentials in the low and high passive region, respectively. In the low passive region, t…

The processing of stepwise graded Si 3 N 4 /SiC ceramics by pressureless co‐sintering is described. Here, SiC (high elastic modulus, high thermal expansion coefficient) forms the substrate and Si 3 N 4 (low elastic modulus, low thermal expansion coefficient) forms the top contact surface, with a stepwise gradient in c…

We report the synthesis, characterization and catalytic behavior of iron(III) porphyrins immobilized in layered double hydroxides (LDH). A combination of EPR, UV-visible spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) was used to characterize the products. Three different procedures were used to perform the immobiliz…

The rate-dependent tensile deformations of twinned martensitic NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) are studied for strain rates as high as 300s−1. The results show that the stress plateau associated with the martensite detwinning process still exists under high-strain-rate deformations. The results further suggest that the…

Abstract Nanophasic LaCoO 3 powders were synthesized from inorganic compounds both in molten chloride fluxes and by using a solution combustion synthesis procedure. The samples were prepared in air and underwent subsequent heat treatments in order to yield the perovskite crystalline phase. The composition and microstr…

We study some asymptotic behaviour of phase interfaces with variable chemical potential under the uniform energy bound. The problem is motivated by the Cahn-Hilliard equation, where one has a control of the total energy and chemical potential. We show that the limit interface is an integral varifold with generalized L…

The luminescence from single laser produced cavitation bubbles for varying degrees of asphericity is investigated temporally, spatially, and spectrally. The degree of asphericity is controlled with an adjustable rigid boundary near the bubble. Temporally, single and multiple light emission events happen during a time…

The Middle to Upper Miocene volcano-sedimentary units in the Mihalýccýk–Eskisehir area of Turkey consist mainly of altered tuff and claystone, with thin layers of dolomite and silica nodules and horizons. Ripple marks and desiccation cracks are common in the siliceous tuff and dolomite units. Green to yellowish green…

Hydrogen gas (H 2 ) was used to extract B 2 O 3 coatings from boron carbide (B 4 C) particles, permitting a lower temperature onset of sintering and restricting coarsening via solution and precipitation of B 4 C in B 2 O 3 liquid. Remnant H 2 had to be removed from the furnace before specimens were heated through temp…

The s p 3 tight-binding model is used to calculate electronic structures of narrow-gap carbon nanotubes. The curvature effects cause a small energy gap, a one-dimensional parabolic bands, and a shift in the Fermi wave vector. The energy gap is described by the approximate relation E g ≃5| V p p π | b 2 cos (3θ)/16 R d…
