Shear-induced ordering of lamellar and gyroid structures observed in a nonionic surfactant/water system

The shear-induced ordering of lamellar and gyroid structures of a nonionic surfactant C₁₆E₇/D₂O system in a Couette shear cell ( 0.001 < < 10 s^-1, : shear rate) has been investigated by using a small angle neutron scattering technique. In the lamellar phase, the steady shear flow having > 0.01 s^-1 suppresses undulation fluctuations of lamellae (Maxwell effect). This suppression of fluctuations brings two effects; 1) shear-induced lamellae ordering toward a parallel orientation and 2) obstruction of a lamellar↦gyroid transition. It is quite interesting to note that there is a characteristic shear rate range ( 0.01 < < 0.3 s^-1), where both effects take place. We have also investigated the shear effects on the gyroid phase. Below the characteristic shear rate range, the gyroid structure keeps three-dimensional network lattice, while above the characteristic shear rate range, the gyroid structure transforms to the parallel orientation lamellae (shear-induced gyroid-lamellar transition). Thus the shear flow having the characteristic shear rate plays very important roles in shear ordering phenomena. Received 26 June 2000 and Received in final form 12 January 2001

Evolution of the Texture and Structure of SiO2–Al2O3 Xerogels and Aerogels as a Function of the Si to Al Molar Ratio

SiO₂–Al₂O₃ aerogels and xerogels with a Si to Al molar ratio r _Si/Al varying from 0.25 to 20, were made by sol-gel process in acidic conditions at pH 2 and respectively dried by the CO₂ supercritical method and by solvent evaporation. The Al precursor was also chelated with ethylacetoacetate, which made it possible to study the structure and texture of such gels in conditions favorable to the formation of mixed Al–O–Si bonds. Nitrogen adsorption isotherms according to the Brunauer, Emmett and Teller method (BET), ²⁷Al magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (²⁷Al MAS-NMR), Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Infrared absorbance spectra after Temperature Programmed Desorption (TPD) of pyridine, showed that the Si–O infrared asymmetric stretching vibration and the Bronsted acidity relative to the Lewis acidity, depended on the ratio of Al^IV to Si atoms.

Thermal behavior of biogenic apatite crystals in bone: An X‐ray diffraction study

The thermal behavior of the bovine bone mineral and synthetic stoichiometric hydroxyapatite was investigated by X‐ray diffraction. The bone samples in solid (planar oriented pieces) and in powder form were examined to elucidate how the microstructural and textural properties of bone mineral are modified under heating. As could be expected, the thermal behavior of the bone mineral depends not only on the structural distortions, but also on the crystal habit, texture and ordering of biocrystals in tissue. The temperature growth of biogenic apatite crystals, unlike synthetic hydroxyapatite, is seen to be nonmonotonic and multi‐staged. At 600 to 700°C the biomineral crystallites grow rapidly due to disappearance of the mosaic structure as the lattice imperfections are annealed. After heating between 700°C and 900°C the bone mineral appears to be composed of roughly equidimensional ≥200 nm crystals. The further growth of the crystals in the range from 900 to 1300°C occurs by the mass transport mechanism, supporting the idea that the bone mineral is not a discrete aggregation of crystals, but rather a continuous mineral phase with direct crystal‐crystal bonding. Estimates are presented to show the important role of the surface mass transport mechanism in the growth of apatite crystals. The material obtained by heating a cortical bone fragment between 900°C and 1300°C turns out to be composed of two crystal types: crystals oriented along the bone axis (major morphology) and those of differing shape and orientation (minor morphology). The heating‐induced variations in the longitudinal and transverse dimensions of differing‐morphology crystals are found to be coherent. Small amounts of CaO, MgO and other crystalline phases are seen to be formed in the bone mineral under heating. © 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim     

Investigation of fabrication and hetero-epitaxy relationship of CoCrPt thin films grown on CrW underlayer

This paper reports that longitudinally oriented CoCrPt thin films with Cr₈₅W₁₅ underlayer and CoCr intermediate layer for use of giant magnetoresistance heads were fabricated by magnetron sputtering. Without CoCr intermediate layer, CoCrPt layer deposited directly on Cr₈₅W₁₅ underlayer which has a dominant (200) texture exhibits unexpected (10\bar {1}1) texture. After introducing CoCr intermediate layer, the CoCrPt layer shifts into (11\bar {2}0) texture. This article studies the crystallographic hetero-epitaxy relationship between magnetic layer and underlayer in order to understand the appearance of CoCrPt (10\bar {1}1) texture on (200) textured Cr underlayer and the influence of CoCr intermediate layer on the inducement of CoCrPt (11\bar {2}0) texture. The CoCr intermediate layer plays a crucial role in controlling the microstructure and consequently the magnetic properties of the overlying magnetic layer.     

TiAl过渡层对电弧离子镀沉积TiAlN膜层的影响

利用电弧离子镀,在不锈钢和SiCP增强2024铝基复合材料基底上沉积TiAlN薄膜.结果表明:TiAlN膜层直接沉积在不锈钢基底上,膜层呈[111]择优取向;然而,TiAlN膜层沉积在不锈钢基底的TiAl过渡层上,膜层呈[220]方向择优取向;并且随着过渡层从零开始增厚,TiAlN膜层的织构系数T(111)逐渐减小,而T(200)逐渐增大,但膜层一直以[220]方向择优取向,内应力的存在可能是膜层产生[220]方向择优取向的原因.在复合材料基底TiAl过渡层上沉积,随着负脉冲偏压的增加,TiAlN膜层的择优取向由[111]向[200]转变.在不锈钢基底上,没有TiAl过渡层时,膜层表面相对光滑,大颗粒较少;有了TiAl过渡层,表面大颗粒较多;TiAl过渡层不同沉积时间对膜层表面影响不大,颗粒尺寸相差无几.没有TiAl过渡层时,膜层结合强度很差,有了TiAl过渡层,结合强度明显增加,但结合强度的大小随过渡层沉积时间(厚度)变化.     

Buckwheat Hull-Enriched Pasta: Physicochemical and Sensory Properties

This work aimed to evaluate the effect of partial replacement of semolina with 0, 1, 5, 10, 15, and 20% of ground buckwheat hull (BH) on the chemical composition, antioxidant properties, color, cooking characteristics, and sensory properties of wheat pasta. Pasta samples were prepared by dough lamination (tagliatelle shape) and dried at 55 °C until the moisture content was 11–12% (wet basis). Analyses of samples showed that the addition of BH caused an increase in fiber content in pasta from 4.31% (control pasta) to 14.15% (pasta with 20% of BH). Moreover, the brightness and yellowness of BH-enriched products were significantly decreased compared to the control sample, and the total color difference ranged from 23.84 (pasta with 1% of BH) to 32.56 (pasta with 15% BH). In addition, a decrease in optimal cooking time, as well as an increased weight index and cooking loss, was observed in BH-enriched pasta samples. Furthermore, BH-enriched cooked pasta had significantly higher total phenolic content and antioxidant activity but an unpleasant smell and taste, especially if the level of BH was higher than 10%.
