Abstract New thermally stable conducting materials can be obtained by dispersing conducting carbon black into poly(4,4′‐diphenylether‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole) (POD–DPE) solution in NMP. The blend preparation process resulted in quite good dispersed composite and a relatively low percolation threshold (around 5 wt % of CB). T…

Abstract A polystyrene‐modified natural rubber (SNR) with 80% degree of grafting was evaluated against natural rubber (NR) in their blends with polystyrene (PS). The rubber loading of the PS‐SNR and PS‐NR blends was varied from 5 to 20% by volume. At 10–15% rubber loading, the PS‐SNR blends were found to be approximat…

Abstract As‐cast films of poly(2,5‐benzimidazole) exhibit uniplanar orientation in which the planes of the aromatic rings lie parallel to the film surface. Upon doping with phosphoric acid, the original crystalline order is lost, but the doped film can be stretched to produce films with uniaxial orientation. After the…

Abstract Two bifunctional aldehydes (i.e., glyoxal and glutaraldehyde) are used as the crosslinking agents to improve paper wet strength in the presence of fully hydrolyzed poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) as a co‐reactant. These bifunctional aldehydes alone improve paper wet strength but diminish its folding endurance. The…

Abstract Conducting polyaniline (PANI) was synthesized in mesoporous silica SBA‐15. The investigations of XRD, N 2 adsorption–desorption, and IR spectra confirm the existence of polyaniline in the channels of SBA‐15 hosts. The impedance of PANI/SBA‐15 composites was studied at different relative humidity (RH) levels,…

Scatterometry is a novel optical metrology that has received considerable attention in the silicon industry in the past few years. Based on the analysis of light scattered from a periodic sample, scatterometry technology can be thought of as consisting of two parts known as the forward problem and the inverse problem.…

We have measured microwave frequency, current-driven magnetization dynamics in point contacts made to Co90Fe10/Cu/ Ni80Fe20 spin valves as a function of applied field strength and angle relative to the film plane. As the field direction is varied from parallel to nearly perpendicular, the device power output increases…

The purpose of this study was to determine if MnSO(4)/doxorubicin (DOX) loaded liposomes could be used for in vivo monitoring of liposome concentration distribution and drug release using MRI. In vitro results show that T(1) shortening correlates with MnSO(4) concentration. Using a temperature-sensitive liposome formu…
