Monovalent and divalent cation effects on phase transitions of iota-carrageenan
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2007-01)
Phase transitions Of L-carrageenan in a variety of monovalent (Li, Na, K) and divalent (Mg, Ca, Sr) cation solutions were studied during heating and cooling by using photon transmission technique. Photon transmission ...
Equivalent dose in quartz from young samples using the SAR protocol and the effect of preheat temperature
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2006-09)
Major concerns in the dating of samples younger than a few hundred years by the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) technique are thermal transfer and partial bleaching. Thermal transfer during preheating enhances the ...
Sorption and slow release kinetics of PAAM gels at various temperatures
(Freund Publishing House Ltd, 2007-11)
Small molecule sorption and slow release in and out of polyacrylamide (PAAm) gels were studied by using steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique. Pyranine (P-y) dissolved in water used as a probe. Fluorescence emission ...
Films formed from polystyrene latex/clay composites: A fluorescence study
(Springer New York, 2005-07)
This study reports a steady-state fluorescence (SSF) technique for studying film formation from surractant-free polystyrene (PS) latex and Na-montmorillonite (SNaM) composites. The composite films were prepared from pyrene ...
Thermoluminescence and optically stimulated luminescence properties of natural barytes
(Elsevier Ltd, 2010-12)
Heavy, baryte-loaded, concrete is commonly used as radiation shielding material around high energy particle accelerators. Concrete samples received from a shielding block located at CERN cite contain many crystalline ...
Vapor-induced film formation from low-T-g particles for different solvent compositions
(Elsevier Inc, 2006-05-15)
The photon transmission method was used to study latex film formation from poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) particles induced by two different solvents. Films with the same latex content were prepared from PVAc particles and ...
Study on swelling of hydrogels (PAAm) at various temperatures by using fluorescence technique
(Springer US, 2007-10)
Steady-state fluorescence (SSF) technique was employed for studying swelling of polyacrylamide (PAAm) hydrogels. Disc-shaped gels were prepared by free-radical crosslinking copolymerization of acrylamide (AAm) with N, N'- ...
Phase transitions of kappa-carrageenan gels in various types of salts
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2006-11-05)
Sol-gel and gel-sol phase transitions of K-carrageenan in various types of salts were studied using photon transmission technique. Here, LiCl, NaCl, KCl, MgCl2, CaCl2, and SrCl2 were chosen as the proper salts for the ...
Transmission increase upon switching of VO2 thin films on microstructured surfaces
(American Institute of Physics, 2007-08-27)
The authors compare transmission measurements of near-infrared light through VO2 thin films on smooth substrates and on ordered arrays of silica microspheres. When the samples are heated above the critical temperature for ...
Monitoring diffusion of reptating polymer chains by a direct energy transfer method: A Monte Carlo simulation
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2002-07-29)
A kinetic Monte Carlo method was used to simulate the diffusion of reptating polymer chains across an interface. A time-resolved fluorescence technique in conjunction with a direct energy transfer method was used to measure ...
