THE STRUCTURE OF AGGREGATION STATE AND ISOTHERMAL CRYSTALLIZATION KINETICS OF NYLON-1010

The structure of aggregation state and isothermal crystallization behavior of Nylon-1010 have been studied by WAXD, DSE, Variance-Range Function and density measurement. The results show that crystallization of Nylon-1010 has the most suitable annealing temperature, the crystals of the Nxlon-1010 are two-dimension heterogeneous nucleation. Both low treatment temperature and high crystallization te, temperature are disadvantageous for Nylon-1010 crystal growth.

Liquid State Undercoolability and Crystal Growth Kinetics of Ternary Ni-Cu-Sn Alloys

The liquid state undercoolability and crystal growth kinetics of ternary Ni-5%Cu-5%Sn and Ni-10%Cu-10%Sn alloys are investigated by the glass fluxing method. In these two alloys, experimental maximum undercoolings of 304 K （0.18TL ） and 286K （0.17TL ） are achieved and the dendritic growth velocities attain 39.8 and 25.1 m/s, respectively. The transition of morphology from coarse dendrite into equiaxed structure occurs and the grain size of the a （Ni） phase decreases remarkably when the undercooling increases. Both the lattice constant and microhardness increase obviously with the enhancement of undercooling. The enrichment of Cu and Sn solute contents reduces the dendritic growth velocity, while enhances the lattice constant and microhardness of a （Ni） phase.

Effect of Thermal Treatment on the PA-6 in the Blends

Aim To investigate the multiple melting behavior of polyamide 6(PA 6) in polyamide 6/linear low density polyethylene blends crystallized from the crystal amorphous state. Methods\ The effects of annealing temperature, annealing time, heating rate, and the step wise annealing were measured by DSC. Results and Conclusion\ There exists a critical heating rate affecting the middle temperature melting peak. When annealed at the temperature close to the melting peak, the main melting peak of PA 6 shifted to a higher temperature. Within a short time, annealing time has much effect on neat PA 6 but little effect on PA 6 in the blends. Addition of PE results in a decreasing in the height of melting peak. These phenomenon show that the melting behavior of PA 6 was affected by PE, compatibilizer, as well as thermal treatment.

Intensities and spectral features of the ~4I_(13/2)-~4I_(15/2) potential laser transition of Er^(3+) centers in CaF_2-CeF_3 disordered crystal

A CaF2-CeF3 disordered crystal containing 1.06% of Er^3＋ ions was grown by the temperature gradient technique.Optical absorption and emission spectra recorded at room temperature and at 10 K, luminescence decay curve recorded at room temperature, and extended x-ray-absorption fine structure spectra were analyzed with an intention to assess the laser potential related to the ^4I13/2→^4I15/2 transition of Er^3＋. In addition, the thermal diffusivity of the crystal was measured at room temperature. The analysis of room-temperature spectra revealed that the ^4I13/2 emission is long-lived with a radiative lifetime value of 5.5 ms, peak emission cross section of 0.73 × 10^-20 cm^2, and large spectral width pointing at the tunability of the emission wavelength in the region stretching from approximately 1480 nm to 1630 nm. The energies of the crystal field components for the ground and excited multiplets determined from low-temperature absorption and emission spectra made it possible to predict successfully the spectral position and shape of the room-temperature ^4I13/2→^4I15/2 emission band. Based on the correlation of the optical spectra and dynamics of the luminescence decay, it was concluded that in contrast to Yb^3＋ ions in heavily doped CaF2 erbium ions in the CaF2-CeF3 crystal reside in numerous sites with dissimilar relaxation rates.

Behavior of lysozyme adsorbed onto biological liquid crystal lipid monolayer at the air/water interface

The interaction between proteins and lipids is one of the basic problems of modern biochemistry and biophysics.The purpose of this study is to compare the penetration degree of lysozyme into 1,2-diapalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine（DPPC） and 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethano-lamine（DPPE） by analyzing the data of surface pressure–area（π–A） isotherms and surface pressure–time（π–T） curves.Lysozyme can penetrate into both DPPC and DPPE monolayers because of the increase of surface pressure at an initial pressure of 15 m N/m.However,the changes of DPPE are larger than DPPC,indicating stronger interaction of lysozyme with DPPE than DPPC.The reason may be due to the different head groups and phase state of DPPC and DPPE monolayers at the surface pressure of 15 m N/m.Atomic force microscopy reveals that lysozyme was absorbed by DPPC and DPPE monolayers,which leads to self-aggregation and self-assembly,forming irregular multimers and conical multimeric.Through analysis,we think that the process of polymer formation is similar to the aggregation mechanism of amyloid fibers.

The Sm atoms are located in the one-dimensional （1 D） tunnels along the c-axis. The structural relationship of the title compound with other similar Sm-Cu-In phases was also studied. Band structure calculations based on Density Functional Theory （DFT） method indicate that SmCuT.69In3.31 is metallic.

Reactions of [NH_4]_2[MS_4](M=Mo,W),CuX(X=Br,I)and PPh_3 in the solid state produced four mixed-metal sulfur containing clusters{Cu_3MS_3X}(PPh_3)_3S(M=Mo,W;X=Br,I),two of which (1:M=Mo,X=I;2:M=W,X=Br)were structurally determined.Crystals of 1 and 2 are triclinic, space group P(1:a=11.895(3),b=13.107(1),c=20.473(2),α=74.95(6),β=84.87(8),γ=64.27(7)°, Z=2,V=2776.1 ,Rw=0.064 for 6443 observed reflections.2:α=11.876 (1),b=13.065 (2),c= 20.325(2),α=74.95(1),β=85.39(1),γ=64.09(1)°,Z=2,V=2737.3,R_w=0.055 for 5303 observed reflections).The results of the structure determination showed that the central units of the two cubane- like cluster compounds are composed of four metal atoms and four non-metal atoms situated at alter- nate comers.The differences of cubane-like cluster compounds obtained from solid state reactions and from solution reactions are discussed.

Activation in the initial stage of oxygen permeation in SrCo_(0.9)Ta_(0.1)O_(3-δ)

Mixed conducting perovskite oxide SrCo_（0.9）Ta_（0.1）O_（3-δ）（SCT） is synthesized by solid-state reaction method.The activation in the initial stage of oxygen permeation through the SCT membrane is investigated.The results show that the activation in the initial stage of oxygen permeation has activate-memory,the first activation can only help to reduce active time of the next cycles,but it is helpless to increase the final oxygen permeation flux.XRD characterization shows that the imperfect perovskite phase structure is gradually improved and the crystal lattice has made some self-adjustment under the permeation conditions,therefore,the oxygen permeation flux of SCT disk membrane increases gradually and till it reaches a steady state.
