Interfacial Response of a Fluorescent Dye Grafted to Glass

April 12, 2000
Author(s)
Joy P. Dunkers, Jospeh L. Lenahrt, J Van Zanten, Richard~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined Parnas
The properties of an epoxy/glass interfacial region are studied by covalently grafting a fluorescent probe to the glass surface. A dimethylaminonitrostilbene fluorophore is tethered to a triethoxysilane-coupling agent, generating a fluorescently labeled

MALDI-TOF MS Analysis of a Library of Polymerizable Cyclodextrin Derivatives

April 1, 2000
Author(s)
Rafael L. Bowen, M Farahani, Sabine H. Dickens, Charles M. Guttman
Polymerizable cyclodextrin derivatives (PCDs) have been proposed as candidates for use in dental therapeutics (Bowen, 1996 and Bowen and Reed, 1997). Here PCD libraries were synthosized by quasi-random reactions of 6 moles of methacrylic anhydride plus 7

Vapor Pressure of the SrPbO 3 Perovskite Phase

April 1, 2000
Author(s)
Lawrence P. Cook, Winnie K. Wong-Ng
The perovskite phase SrPbO 3 is important as a buffer and indicator of PbO chemical potential (at fixed p O2 ) according to the reaction: 2 SrPbO 3 --> Sr 2PbO 4 + PbO(g) + 1/2 O2 (g), where the term PbO(g) includes several Pb-containing gaseous species

Determination of the Molecular Mass Distribution of Narrow Polydispersity Polystyrene by MALDI-TOF-MS: Interlaboratory Comparison

March 1, 2000
Author(s)
Kathleen M. Flynn, S Wetzel, William E. Wallace, William R. Blair, R J. Goldschmidt, David L. VanderHart, B M. Fanconi
NIST has sponsored a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) interlaboratory comparison using a well-characterized polystyrene to determine the reproducibility in determining the molecular mass

Hydrogels Formed by Endlinking PEG to Dendrimer Crosslink Agents

March 1, 2000
Author(s)
B D. Viers, Barry J. Bauer, Y A. Akpalu, F Groehn, Da-Wei Liu, G Kim
Hydrogels were formed by endlinking telechelic vinyl sulfone end-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) with the terminal amines on dendrimers of different generation. These structures are unique in that the dendrimer crosslink sites were very large, and

MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry of Polymeric Silsesquioxanes

March 1, 2000
Author(s)
William E. Wallace, Charles M. Guttman, Joseph M. Antonucci
Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry has been shown to be an effective method to determine the degree-of-intramolecular-condensation of polymeric silsesquioxanes. The nature of the organic R' leaving group was found

Preparation and Characterization of Polymer/Dendrimer Blends: Final Report, March 2000

Eric J. Amis, Barry J. Bauer, A Topp, F Groehn, T J. Prosa, B D. Viers, Da-Wei Liu, K A. Barnes, C L. Jackson, G Nisato, Alamgir Karim, Jack F. Douglas
This report is a summary of the results of measurement and characterization on dendritically branched polymers that was done under Army Research Office Grant contract 35109-CH. This summary encompasses 3 previous NISTIR's for consecutive 12 month periods

The Orientation of Semifluorinated Alkanes Attached to Polymers at the Surface of Polymer Films

March 1, 2000
Author(s)
Jan Genzer, E Sivaniah, E K. Kramer, J G. Wang, H Kerner, M Xiang, K Char, Christopher K. Ober, B M. DeKoven, Robert A. Bubeck, M K. Chaudhury, S Sambasivan, Daniel A. Fischer
The surface molecular orientation of a liquid crystalline (LC) layer made up a semi-fluorinated (SF) single side-groups [-CO-(CH 2) x-1-(CF 2) yF] (single SF groups) attached to polyisoprene homopolymer or the isoprene block of a styrene-isoprene diblock

Neutron Irradiation to Increase the C-Axis Compressive Strength of Sapphire at Elevated Temperature

February 29, 2000
Author(s)
T M. Regan, D C. Harris, D W. Blodgett, K C. Baldwin, J A. Miragliotta, M E. Thomas, M J. Linevsky, J W. Giles, R M. Stroud, T A. Kennedy, M Fatemi, David R. Black
Neutron irradiation of sapphire with 1 x 10 18 neutrons (≥ 1 MeV)/cm 2 increases the c-axis compressive strength by a factor of 3 at 600 C. The mechanism of strength enhancement is the retardation of r-plane twin propagation by radiation-induced defects

February 28, 2000
Author(s)
Brian R. Lawn
A brief survey is given of mechanisms of subcritical crack growth in ceramics, for a solicited article in Encyclopedia of Materials: Science and Technology.
