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 Novel biodegradable copolymers, poly(1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one‐ co ‐glycolide) [P(DON‐ co ‐GA)] containing a high proportion of 1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one (DON), were synthesized by copolymerizations of DON and glycolide (GA) at 120 °C for 16 h using stannous octoate as catalyst. Chemical composition and microstructural variati…
Abstract Uniaxial oscillating stress field by dynamic packing injection molding (DPIM) is well established as a means of producing uniaxially self‐reinforced polyethylene and polypropylene. Here, the effects on the mechanical properties of high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) in both flow direction (MD) and transverse dir…
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,…
Neutral oxygen vacancies in amorphous $(a\ensuremath{-})$ ${\mathrm{SiO}}_{2}$ and ${\mathrm{GeO}}_{2}$ as well as bulk $a\ensuremath{-}{\mathrm{SiO}}_{2}$ and $a\ensuremath{-}{\mathrm{GeO}}_{2}$ configurations have been investigated by using the first-principles pseudopotential method in order to elucidate the mechan…
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.…
Relationships between taxonomic composition of shallow epilithic algal communities and nine environmental variables in 32 lakes of different trophic states in Ireland were explored using gradient analysis. A canonical correspondence analysis using four representative environmental variables, alkalinity (correlated wit…
Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)-binding (SSB) proteins are uniformly required to bind and protect single-stranded intermediates in DNA metabolic pathways. All bacterial and eukaryotic SSB proteins studied to date oligomerize to assemble four copies of a conserved domain, called an oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide-binding (…
The leucine biosynthetic pathway is essential for the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and is a potential target for the design of new anti-tuberculosis drugs. The crystal structure of alpha-isopropylmalate synthase, which catalyzes the first committed step in this pathway, has been determined by multiwavelength a…
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…
We studied the electrical conductivity of DNA molecules with conducting atomic force microscopy as a function of the chemical nature of the substrate surfaces, the nature of the electrical contact, and the number of DNA molecules (from a few molecules, to ropes and large fibers containing up to ~ 106 molecules). Indep…
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…
The vibration of the dimer on Ge(001) surface with the higher vibrational number excited coherently by STM current is theoretically investigated. The coherent excitation rate of the dimer vibration is obtained by the Hamiltonian consisting of the terms of the electron system and the electron-vibration coupling terms.…
Abstract Atactic poly(vinyl alcohols) (a‐PVAs) having number‐average degrees of polymerization [( P n )s] of 1700 and 4000 were prepared by the solution polymerization of vinyl acetate, which was followed by the saponification of poly(vinyl acetate) to investigate the effects of molecular weights of a‐PVA on the chara…
We have investigated the peculiar structure of charge and spin ordering in the half-doped layered perovskite oxide La$_{1.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$CoO$_4$ by elastic neutron scattering. Two samples with different preparation histories were studied. We find that the generic features of the ordered states, such as their short-range…
Using both analytical and simulational methods, we study low-temperature nucleation rates in kinetic Ising lattice-gas models that evolve under two different Arrhenius dynamics that interpose between the Ising states a transition state representing a local energy barrier. The two dynamics are the transition-state appr…
Mechanical alloying was used to prepare cobalt carbide. Microstructural characterization of samples was performed by x-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry and transmission electron microscopy methods. In order to produce carbon nanotubes, the cobalt carbide was precipitated after heating at 800 and 1000…
