Graphite oxides which had been prepared from three different
size graphite particles by the modified Brodie method were observed
with the electron microscope. The thermal decomposition products
of the oxides, obtained by heating them at 240° and 300°,
were observed using the electron microscope and x-ray diffraction.
Graphite oxide was...
The study was conducted on the Ochoco National Forest in
central Oregon. Vegetation-soil relationships were evaluated for the
following objectives: 1. Develop a sound ecological foundation on
which total land management decisions may be based. 2. Evaluate
forest succession, stocking, and growth to improve management.
3. Develop accurate range condition...
Adsorption on a series of primary n-alkylammonium bentonites
was studied by simultaneous gravimetric determination of the adsorption
isotherm and X-ray diffraction measurement of the c-spacing.
All adsorbates gave typical Type II isotherms. BET plots
were linear in the region P/P[subscript o] = 0.10 - 0.35 and v[subscript m] values were...
A sequence of soils derived from tuffaceous rocks was sampled
on the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest and adjacent U. S. Plywood
land to determine some genetic and stability relationships. The
less than two micron size fraction from each sample was characterized
by x-ray diffraction with respect to crystalline clay...
Knowledge of the viruses which are mechanically transmitted
from pear to herbaceous plants and the diseases they cause in pear
is not complete. This thesis discusses the means used to mechanically
transmit pear viruses, the properties of those viruses and their
relationships with latent viruses of apple.
Herbaceous plant virus...
