We report on an electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method that is suited for the preparation of both ZnO thin films and micropatterns. By applying small DC voltages between a Cu electrode and a conductive Si substrate, submersed in a suspension of ZnO quantum dots, we can cover entire substrates with ZnO layers of a tun…

A series of TROI steam explosion experiments was performed using various prototypic melts. The melt was pure zirconia, eutectic corium (70: 30 weight percent of UO2: ZrO2) or iron-added eutectic corium. In this series, an experiment with pure zirconia, two experiments with eutectic corium, and three experiments with i…

Abstract Bi‐layered composites of polyaniline (PANI) and poly( o ‐anisidine) (POA) were investigated for corrosion protection of low carbon steel (LCS). In this work, homopolymers and bi‐layers of PANI and POA were electropolymerized on LCS from an aqueous salicylate solution by using cyclic voltammetry. These coating…

The results of a DFT theoretical investigation on the catalytic mechanism of the QC enzyme are presented. A rather large model-system is used. It includes the most important residues that are believed to play a key-role in the catalysis. The computational results show that the rate-determining step of the catalytic pr…

The electronic structure of a σ-FeCr compound in a paramagnetic state was calculated for the first time in terms of isomer shifts and quadrupole splittings. The former were calculated using the charge self-consistent Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (KKR) Green's function technique, while the latter were estimated from an exten…

Abstract Maleic anhydride functionalized acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS‐ g ‐MA) copolymers were prepared via an emulsion polymerization process. The ABS‐ g ‐MA copolymers were used to toughen polyamide 6 (PA‐6). Fourier transform infrared results show that the maleic anhydride (MA) grafted onto the polybutadiene…
