Halide glasses based on chlorides, bromides and iodides

There is relatively little information on glasses based on chlorides, bromides and iodides. Because of the recent interest in fluoride it is the objective of this paper to evaluate the potential for preparing new halide glasses and to offer some predictions on the properties of glasses based on chlorides, bromides and iodides. The predictions of glass-forming tendency, viscosity, chemical durability and structures are discussed.     

An Efficient Solid-State Synthesis of N-Aryl-2-phenyldiazenecarboxamides

The subject of organic solid-state synthesis is a fascinating one. It has many advantages such as high efficiency and selectivity, easy separation and purification, mild reaction conditions, and environmental acceptability1. In recent years, this method has been widely used in a variety of organic reactions including substitution2, condensation3, oxidation-reduction4, rearrangement5 and elimination6. However, the solid state reaction using K3Fe(CN)6/KOH to oxidize substituted semicarbazides…     

Effects of Cr doping on the electrochemical performance of Li3V2(PO4)3 cathode material for lithium ion batteries

A series of Cr-doped Li₃V_2 − x Cr _x (PO₄)₃ (x = 0, 0.1, 0.25, and 0.5) samples are prepared by a sol–gel method. The effects of Cr doping on the physical and chemical characteristics of Li₃V₂(PO₄)₃ are investigated. Compared with the XRD pattern of the undoped sample, the XRD patterns of the Cr-doped samples have no extra reflections, which indicates that Cr enters the structure of Li₃V₂(PO₄)₃. As indicated by the charge–discharge measurements, the Cr-doped Li₃V_2 − x Cr _x (PO₄)₃ (x = 0.1, 0.25, and 0.5) samples exhibit lower initial capacities than the undoped sample at the 0.2 C rate. However, both the discharge capacity and cycling performance at high rates (e.g., 1 and 2 C) are enhanced with proper amount of Cr doping (x = 0.1). The highest discharge capacity and capacity retention at the rates of 1 and 2 C are obtained for Li₃V_1.9Cr_0.1(PO₄)₃. The improvement of the electrochemical performance can be attributed to the higher crystal stability and smaller particle size induced by Cr doping.

     

Early cure behavior of a liquid dicyanate ester resin

The early cure behavior of 4,4‐dicyanato 1,1‐diphenolethane resin with and without incorporating Cr(acac)₃, Co(acac)₃, and Cu(acac)₂, respectively, as catalysts was investigated by gel permeation chromatography. The curing intermediates were separated by the column elution method and characterized by Fourier transform infrared, ¹H, and ³C NMR spectroscopies. The results indicated that the formed dimer in the early cure stage is a straight chain containing a primary amino group. The formed triazine ring in the trimer has a strong catalytic effect on the remaining cyanate groups so that the reactivity of the trimers was significantly increased. The reactivities of the curing intermediates decreased with molecular size until 7‐mer was reached. The initial monomer consumption is described by second‐order‐rate kinetics. In the presence of metal acetylacetonates, the curing reactions may be accelerated, but they did not change the reaction path and preceding sequence of reactivities. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Synthesis and properties of ZnO nanofibers prepared by electrospinning

ZnO nanofibers were prepared from zinc acetate/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) by electrospun method. The morphological features, crystallinity, mechanical and optical properties of the ZnO nanofibers were studied. The results show the specific surface area of the ZnO nanofibers was influenced by the electrospun conditions. The specific surface area reached 389.7 m²g⁻¹ as the average diameter was 232 nm. The XRD date reveals the nanofibers consist of a single phase of well-crystallized ZnO with hexagonal structure. The elastic modulus of a single ZnO nanofiber was also characterized by nano-scale three-point bending test.     

Experimental investigation of discharge characteristics in enhanced glow discharge plasma immersion ion implantation

In enhanced glow discharge plasma immersion ion implantation (EGD-PIII) that involves a small pointed anode and large area tabular cathode, the high negative substrate bias not only acts as the plasma producer but also supplies the implantation voltage. Consequently, an electric field is created to focus the electrons and the electron focusing field in turn enhances the glow discharge process. In this work, the discharge characteristics of EGD-PIII are investigated experimentally. The discharge initiation and extinction characteristics during pulsed biasing are discussed. The duration of the post pulse-off plasma is explained from the viewpoint of particle motion and experimentally verified by employing an auxiliary disk. Our experiments show that a dual-pulse method may be utilized to determine the remnant plasma.     

Entropy of the Binomial Field Interacting with the Two Entangled Atoms

In this paper, we investigate entropy properties of the single-mode binomial field interacting with the two entangled two-level atoms. It is found that the different initial conditions lead to the different evolutions of entropy of the binomial field.
