In these tests, phenolic constituents from bark of Shasta red fir were found ineffective as stiffening agents for corrugating medium. Other means of application, however, may be effective.
Gum from inner bark of Shasta red fir was not so effective as a beater additive as was locust bean gum, but...
The solid solutions of InGa₁₋ₓFeₓCuO₄, InFeCu₁₋ₓMgₓO₄, and InGa₁₋ₓFeₓCu₁₋ₓMgₓO₄ were
synthesized and characterized through the use of X – ray and neutron diffraction, and DC –
magnetism measurements. All compositions of InGa₁₋ₓFeₓCuO₄ are single phase and crystallize
in the R3m space group, but a transformation to the spinel InFeMgO₄ structure was...
Refractive indices of In₂O₃, In₂₋ₓSnₓO₃, InBO₃ and 2 different gahnite crystals (ZnAl₂O₄ and Zn.₉₅Fe.₀₅Al₂O₄) were measured at wavelengths of 435.8 to 643.8 nm and were used to calculate n at λ = 589.3 nm ( nD ) and at λ = ∞ (n∞) using the one-term Sellmeier equation 1/(n²-1) =...
We demonstrate a novel synthetic route to fabricate a one-dimensional
peapod-like Sb@C structure with disperse Sb
submicron-particles encapsulated in carbon submicron-tubes.
The synthetic route may well serve as a general methodology
for fabricating carbon/metallic fine structures by thermally
reducing their carbon-coated metal oxide composites.
The future of iron pnictide superconductors in technology is still undecided. While these materials are now known to possess high critical temperatures and critical magnetic fields processing methods for these materials are still in their infancy. Recently we have been investigating possible ways to speed up the synthetic process for...
The ultimate properties of a fibrous composite system depend highly on the transverse mechanical properties of the fibers. Here, we report the size dependency of transverse elastic modulus in cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). In addition, the mechanical properties of CNCs prepared from wood and cotton resources were investigated. Nanoindentation in an...
