The low risk and sustainable implementation of nanotechnology requires understanding how nanomaterial physicochemical properties influence their toxicity. Major drivers of toxicity need to be avoided while maximizing product efficacy so nanomaterials can be produced to best serve their applications and be of low risk when intentionally or unintentionally released into...
Consider a simple Markov process on [0,T]. The occupation times were extensively studied in the case of T increasing to infinity. Here we develop a method of computing the distribution for occupation times when T is small via integral equations and integral transforms.

A liquid sulfur dioxide battery, such as K/KCl SbCl₅ (0.25
molar) + IBr₃ (15 %wt) + SO₂ (1)/carbon matrix is shown to have an
open circuit voltage greater than 3.70 volts and an initial voltage of
3.15 volts, decreasing to 2.40 volts in 10 minutes at a current density
of...
The pore size distribution of several battery separators were
determined experimentally by mercury penetration method using the
Aminco-Winslow porosimeter. The performances of the separators under
electrolyte penetration were also studied. The results of electrolyte
penetration revealed that the degree of penetration was affected
by the anions of the entrained salts...
The kinetics of the chlorination of copper in the
thin film range at room temperature was studied by using
a wiped, rotating cylindrical copper cathode which was
partially submerged in an electrolyte. Experiments were
conducted at three different partial pressures: 1.00,
0.44 and 0.21 atm. of chlorine gas which was...
The mechanism of continuously chlorinated silver-silver
chloride electrode performance was studied by using a wiped, rotating,
partially submerged, cylindrical silver cathode. The cell
performance using a zinc anode was measured, and the rate of
chlorination of silver was calculated for several water saturated
chlorine atmospheres.
At 75°F, with a chlorine...
The relative conductance at room temperature of a solution in
kaolin membranes was studied as a function of the volume fraction of
the membrane. The resistances of the membrane and of the solution
were measured for various volume fractions, and the conductance of
the membrane relative to the solution was...
