Untypical rheological behaviour of the lignite–carboxymethylcellulose–water dispersion system

Suspensions of lignite in a solution of a high molecular weight carboxymethylcellulose show peculiar rheological behaviour. Unless the lignite concentration is sufficiently high, apparent viscosity and viscoelastic moduli of the suspension are lower than those of the pure solution. This effect is not suppressed by changing pH and seems to be common for low-concentrated suspensions in solutions of high molecular weight (bio)polymer. It is explained by specific structuring of the suspensions. Lignite particles at lower concentration separate long cellulose chains and facilitate their movement under shear flow. The particles loosen inter-chain contacts, disturb and release elastic gel-like structure formed by the long cellulose chains, which results in the low strain oscillatory deformation, the decrease in the moduli and the increase in the loss angle. If the amount of lignite particles is sufficiently high, suspension stiffening occurs as usual. No such effect was observed for suspensions prepared from the low molecular weight derivative.

Dispersion of silica nano-particles in sol-gel hybrid resins for fabrication of multi-scale hybrid nanocomposite

Multi-scale hybrid nanocomposites containing both ∼15 nm silica colloids and ∼2 nm oligosiloxanes in a methacryl polymer matrix were newly designed and fabricated. Colloidal silica sols were dispersed in methacryl oligosiloxanes nano-hybrid resins synthesized by sol-gel reaction of methacryloxypropylmethoxysilane and diphenylsilanediol. On the basis of TEM and SANS analyses, it was confirmed that the silica colloids were compatibly dispersed and different sizes of colloidal silica and oligosiloxanes co-exist in the solutions. Multi-scale hybrid nanocomposites fabricated by UV and thermal curing with incorporation of silica colloids in the nano-hybrid materials show enhanced mechanical and thermal characteristics.     

An approach to analysis of pigment release from microcapsules with size distribution

We have studied the release curve for microcapsules with size distribution. On the basis of an analogy to the relaxation phenomena with multiple characteristic times, we propose a stretched exponential release curve for the system with size distribution and relate the release curve to the size distribution function of the microcapsule. This method was successfully applied to the transfer of azo-pigments from inner medium of dioctyl phthalate to dispersing medium of methanol through poly(ureaurethane) microcapsule membrane.     

A multireference configuration interaction method based on the separated electron pair wave functions

A multireference configurational interaction method based on the separated electron pair (SEP) wave functions, SEP‐CI approach, has been developed as an approximation to the traditional CASSCF method. It differs from the CASSCF method in that active orbitals are obtained from the SEP wave function without further optimization in the subsequent CI calculations, and the active space is automatically constructed according to the occupation coefficients of SEP natural orbitals. These features make the present SEP‐CI method computationally much less demanding than the CASSCF method. The applicability of the SEP‐CI method is illustrated with sample calculations on the insertion reaction of BeH₂ and dissociation energies of LiH, BH, FH, H₂O, and N₂. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Polarization Dependence of a Hydrophobized Electrode for Electrosynthesis of a Soluble Product

An equation for a polarization curve of a hydrophobized electrode is proposed for electrosynthesis of a soluble electroactive product in an inner-kinetic mode. The equation contains the concentration of the target product (TP) in an explicit form. The shape of the curve depends on the biquadratic root of the TP concentration and the square root of the ratio between exchange currents of the side and target reactions.

Long-range dispersion coefficients for like centrosymmetric linear molecules and an application to H2-H2

The real spherical tensor theory of long-range intermolecular coefficients developed in previous papers is applied to derive explicit formulae for the first three dispersion coefficients for like centrosymmetric linear molecules. The expansion of angle-dependent coefficients in associated Legendre polynomials allows one to identify the isotropic and anisotropic components of the dispersion interaction in terms of London dispersion constants, the treatment of higher coefficients being simplified by the coupling of the elementary (l, l′)-polarizations to resultant angular momenta L_A and L_B onto each molecule. The contributions from all coupling schemes are given explicitly for C₆, C₈, C₁₀, and numerical results are presented for H₂-H₂ using two-term reduced spectra values from the Kaiserlautern group.
