Rheological characterisation of bis-urea based viscoelastic solutions in an apolar solvent

The rheological properties of hydrogen bonded reversible aggregates in apolar solvent have been investigated. The zero shear viscosity, the plateau modulus and the terminal viscoelastic relaxation time exhibit power laws dependencies with the concentration that have been compared with the behaviours expected for reversible polymers. It appears that the dynamics originate from scission/recombination mechanisms. Moreover, the growth of the aggregates with concentration follows the laws observed and predicted for worm-like micelles at low concentrations allowing the length of the aggregates to be estimated 500 nm at 3 g L(-1). However, at the highest concentrations investigated, deviations from the power laws suggest the presence of some intrinsic chain stopper poisons in the solutions.     

The correlation length of commodity markets 1. Empirical evidence

It is a common belief nowadays that the world economy is fairly well “integrated”. Yet, this belief often turns out to be in contradiction with empirical evidence. As a matter of fact the way distant markets interact is a question that has largely been ignored by economists. In this series of two papers we examine the role that space, that is to say geographical distance, plays in the economics of commodity markets. The first of these papers presents the empirical evidence while the second develops a theoretical framework. The empirical enquiry discloses several noteworthy features, e.g. (i) with respect to spatial interaction there is a sharp contrast between stock markets and commodity markets. While there is almost perfect spatial arbitrage in the first case, this is not true for commodity markets. (ii) In spite of their chaotic behavior in the course of time commodity prices display well defined spatial patterns, (iii) as in statistical physics and fluid dynamics interactions can be described in terms of correlation length. The correlation length of a set of markets is seen to increase along with the number of transactions; it also increases when transport costs decline as was the case during the “transportation revolution” of the mid-nineteenth century. Using the notion of correlation length one is able to give a quantitative meaning to the otherwise ill-defined concept of market integration.

High-temperature series analysis of the p-state Potts glass model on d-dimensional hypercubic lattices

We analyze recently extended high-temperature series expansions for the “Edwards-Anderson” spin-glass susceptibility of the p-state Potts glass model on d-dimensional hypercubic lattices for the case of a symmetric bimodal distribution of ferro- and antiferromagnetic nearest-neighbor couplings . In these star-graph expansions up to order 22 in the inverse temperature , the number of Potts states p and the dimension d are kept as free parameters which can take any value. By applying several series analysis techniques to the new series expansions, this enabled us to determine the critical coupling K_c and the critical exponent of the spin-glass susceptibility in a large region of the two-dimensional (p,d)-parameter space. We discuss the thus obtained information with emphasis on the lower and upper critical dimensions of the model and present a careful comparison with previous estimates for special values of p and d.

Universality in three dimensional random-field ground states

We investigate the critical behavior of three-dimensional random-field Ising systems with both Gauss and bimodal distribution of random fields and additional the three-dimensional diluted Ising antiferromagnet in an external field. These models are expected to be in the same universality class. We use exact ground-state calculations with an integer optimization algorithm and by a finite-size scaling analysis we calculate the critical exponents , , and . While the random-field model with Gauss distribution of random fields and the diluted antiferromagnet appear to be in same universality class, the critical exponents of the random-field model with bimodal distribution of random fields seem to be significantly different.

交联低密度聚乙烯交联程度表征方法的研究

硅烷交联法和过氧化物交联法是聚乙烯交联改性的两种重要方法［１］,以往的文献上通常都以凝胶含量来表征这两种方法制备的交联产物的交联程度［２～６］,但是在实践中我们发现,凝胶含量基本相同的硅烷交联聚乙烯和过氧化物交联聚乙烯的性能存在着很大的差异,例如在７０℃的二甲苯中凝胶含量为６２％的过氧化物交联低密度聚乙烯（ＬＤＰＥ）的平衡溶胀比是相同凝胶含量的硅烷交联ＬＤＰＥ的４倍,１５０℃时凝胶含量为７０％的硅烷交联聚乙烯的热延伸率比相同凝胶含量的过氧化物交联聚乙烯小三倍,而且二者的结晶行为和结晶度也有很大的…
