Strontium hexaferrite is one of the very important categories of magnetic materials with a wide range applications. One of the very critical parameters in the high temperature method of production of this material is molar ratio of iron oxide to strontium oxide. Although there could be found some reports on the effect of this parameter on the physical properties of the material in the literature but there are very few investigations about the role of this factor on the reactions occurred in the process. In this work the effect of different molar ratios of precursors on the reactions carried out for processing of strontium hexaferrite have been investigated by using thermal analysis techniques such as DTA/TG. Furthermore, the microstructure and the powder and bulk magnetic properties of the products have been studied by SEM, VSM and permeameter.

Abstract Canadian refractory wood species treated with micronized copper (MCu) wood preservative become mottled and streaky in appearance. To overcome this issue, the MCu system was modified by adding small amounts of monoethanolamine (Mea). The modified systems were evaluated to clarify the role of Mea in terms of leaching, corrosion, and mold resistance of MCu systems. The mottled and streaky surface on treated spruce was prevented at Mea/Cu molar ratios between 0.7 and 1.5. Copper leaching remained modest and was only slightly higher than that of MCu alone up to a Mea/Cu molar ratio of 1.2. However, adding even a small amount of Mea to the MCu formulation increased fastener corrosion compared with MCu. Protonated Mea increased as more Mea was added and was identified as the main corrosion-causing electrolyte in the system.

AbstractThe interesting properties of stimuli-responsive polymers lead to a wide range of possibilities in design and engineering of functional material for the biomedical application. A systematic approach focused on the evaluation of the physical properties of multiresponse (pH and temperature) PNIPAM was reported in this work. The effect of three different molar ratios of poly(n-isopropylacrylamide): chitosan (1:49, 1:99 and 1:198) were evaluated and labeled correspondingly as PC1F, PC2F, and PC3F. An increase in the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of sample PC1F (34°C) was observed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The presence of low molecular weight chitosan (LMWC) full-interpenetrating polymer (Full-IPN) segments in poly(n-isopropylacrylamide) was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The hydrogel’s water capture was analyzed by two models of swelling, the power law model and a model that considers the relaxation of polymeric chains of the hydrogel, finding good correlations with experimental data in both cases. Sample PC3F resulted with higher swellability, increasing the weight of the hydrogel around seven times. Hydrogel pH-sensibility was confirmed placing the samples at different pH environments, with an apparent increase in swellability for acidic conditions, confirming the highest swellability for sample PC3F, due to hydrogen bonds boosted by chitosan high molar ratio. Based on these results, the hydrogel obtained has potential as a thermo-pH triggered hydrogel in drug delivery applications.

Aggregation Of Platelets

Certain phospholipids aggregate and form "plugs" in a simple system in which all variables are easily controlled. Aggregation requires the presence of divalent cations. Suspensions of lecithin are totally inactive whereas those of phosphatidylethanolamine and interaction products of lecithin and phosphatidylserine (molar ratio 1/1) aggregate and form plugs. Phosphatidylserine and lecithin-phosphatidylserine interaction products at higher molar ratios produce some aggregation but do not form plugs. Adenosine diphosphate (in the presence of small amounts of calcium) can accelerate the formation of small aggregates of platelets or exogenous phospholipids, but cannot bring about the formation of large aggregates or plugs. The hypothesis is presented that aggregation of platelets in physiological thrombus formation occurs after a triggering mechanism "uncovers" phospholipid micelles in platelets. The newly available negative charges on the polar ends of phospholipids would then be bridged by divalent cations present in the surrounding plasma, producing aggregates and plugs.

The role of silica in the chlorination–volatilization of cobalt oxide, using calcium chloride, is investigated in this paper. It is found that the Co volatilization percentage of the CoO–Fe2O3–CaCl2 system is not larger than 12.1%. Silica plays an important role in the chlorination–volatilization of cobalt oxide by using calcium chloride. In the CoO–SiO2–Fe2O3–CaCl2 system, the Co volatilization percentage is initially positively related to the molar ratio of SiO2 to CaCl2, and remains almost constant when the molar ratio of SiO2 to CaCl2 rises from zero to eight. The critical molar ratios of SiO2 to CaCl2 are 1 and 2 when the molar ratios of CaCl2 to CoO are 8.3 and 16.6, respectively. The Co volatilization percentage remains almost constant with the increase in CaO concentration, and decreases when Al2O3 and MgO are added. Ca2SiO3Cl2 is determined after roasting at 1073 K and 1173 K, and disappears at temperatures in excess of 1273 K in the calcines from the CoO–SiO2–CaCl2 system. CaSiO3 always exists in the calcines at temperatures in excess of 973 K.

The influence of birnessite (δ-MnO2) on the precipitation products of iron was studied, in the FeCl2-NH4OH system at different Mn/Fe molar ratios (0, 0.01, 0.1 and 1.0) and in the acidic pH (4.0, 5.0 and 6.0) range, by X-ray, TEM, IR and chemical analyses. The precipitation products formed at pH 5.0 and 6.0 were found to be lepidocrocite (γ-FeOOH) in the absence of birnessite. Birnessite promoted increased precipitation of Fe oxide; the oxidation of Fe(II) by MnO2 was thermodynamically feasible and was confirmed by the presence of Mn(II) in the solution by ESR data. Birnessite also influenced the crystallization processes of hydrolytic products of Fe which range from lepidocrocite through goethite (α-FeOOH), akaganeite (β-FeOOH), to X-ray noncrystalline Fe oxides. The noncrystalline Fe oxides formed at a Mn/Fe molar ratio of 1.0 were characterized by infrared absorption maxima at 1400 and 750 cm−1.

Abstract. Overprediction of fine-particle ammonium-sulfate molar ratios (R) by thermodynamic models is suggested as evidence for interactions with organic constituents that inhibit the equilibration of gas-phase ammonia with aerosol sulfate and questions the equilibrium assumption long thought to apply for submicron aerosol. This hypothesis is tested through thermodynamic analysis of ambient observations. We find that the deviation between R from a molar ratio of 2 is strongly correlated with the concentration of sodium (Na+), a nonvolatile cation (NVC), but exhibits no correlation to organic aerosol (OA) mass concentration or mass fraction. Thermodynamic predictions of both R and ammonia gas–particle partitioning can accurately reproduce observations when small amounts of NVCs are included in the calculations, whereas exclusion of NVCs results in a predicted R consistently near 2. The sensitivity of R to small amounts of NVCs arises because, when the latter are present but not included in the thermodynamic calculations, the missing cations are replaced with ammonium in the model (NH3–NH4+ equilibrium shifts to the particle), resulting in an R that is biased high. Results and conclusions based on bulk aerosol considerations that assume all species are internally mixed are not changed even if NVCs and sulfate are largely externally mixed; fine-particle pH is found to be much less sensitive to mixing state assumptions than molar ratios. We also show that the data used to support the “organic inhibition” of NH3 from equilibrium, when compared against other network and field campaign datasets, display a systematically and significantly lower NH4+ (thought to be from an evaporation bias), that is of the order of the effect postulated to be caused by organics. Altogether, these results question the postulated ability of organic compounds to considerably perturb aerosol acidity and prevent ammonia from achieving gas–particle equilibrium, at least for the locations considered. Furthermore, the results demonstrate the limitations of using molar ratios to infer aerosol properties or processes that depend on particle pH.

CdS nanorods with varying dimensions were synthesized by solvothermal process. It was observed that the anions present with the Cd-salts play an important role in determining the dimensions of the CdS nanorods. The crystalline nature of the sources was found to play a crucial role in determining the phase of the products. The nature of the sulfur source, molar ratio of the precursors, filling fraction of the solvent, and the synthesis temperature play important role in defining the size and shape of the products. By controlling the experimental parameters it was possible to control the dimension of the CdS nanorods within a certain range (diameter of the nanorods could be varied within a wide range from ∼7 to 100 nm by varying the temperature within 100–250 °C). Optical absorption, photoluminescence, and Raman studies of these samples were carried out to characterize the CdS nanorods.

The role of monetary factor in generating inflationary processes in Russia has stimulated various debates in social and scientific circles for a relatively long time. The authors show that identification of the specificity of relationship between money and inflation requires a complex approach based on statistical modeling and involving a wide range of indicators relevant for the price changes in the economy. As a result a model of inflation for Russia implying the decomposition of inflation dynamics into demand-side and supply-side factors is suggested. The main conclusion drawn is that during the recent years the volume of inflationary pressures in the Russian economy has been determined by the deviation of money supply from money demand, rather than by money supply alone. At the same time, monetary factor has a long-run spread over time impact on inflation.

This introduction surveys the rise of the history of emotions as a field and the role of the arts in such developments. Reflecting on the foundational role of the arts in the early emotion-oriented histories of Johan Huizinga and Jacob Burkhardt, as well as the concerns about methodological impressionism that have sometimes arisen in response to such studies, the introduction considers how intensive engagements with the arts can open up new insights into past emotions while still being historically and theoretically rigorous. Drawing on a wide range of emotionally charged art works from different times and places—including the novels of Carson McCullers and Harriet Beecher-Stowe, the private poetry of neo-Confucian Chinese civil servants, the photojournalism of twentieth-century war correspondents, and music from Igor Stravinsky to the Beatles—the introduction proposes five ways in which art in all its forms contributes to emotional life and consequently to emotional histories: first, by incubating deep emotional experiences that contribute to formations of identity; second, by acting as a place for the expression of private or deviant emotions; third, by functioning as a barometer of wider cultural and attitudinal change; fourth, by serving as an engine of momentous historical change; and fifth, by working as a tool for emotional connection across communities, both within specific time periods but also across them. The introduction finishes by outlining how the special issue's five articles and review section address each of these categories, while also illustrating new methodological possibilities for the field.
