Heat capacity and decomposition of rimantadine hydrochloride

January 30, 2020
Author(s)
Ala Bazyleva, Yauheni Paulechka, Dzmitry H. Zaitsau, Andrey V. Blokhin, Gennady J. Kabo
Heat capacities of antiviral drug rimantadine hydrochloride in the crystalline state were measured by adiabatic calorimetry and differential scanning calorimetry in the temperature range from (7 to 453) K. A broad low-enthalpy solid-state phase anomaly was

Covariance-based uncertainty analysis of reference equations of state

January 6, 2020
Author(s)
Howard Cheung, Jerome Frutiger, Ian Bell, Jens Abildskov, Gurkan Sin, Shengwei Wang
This work presents a detailed methodology for uncertainty analysis applied to a reference equation of state (EOS) based on Helmholtz energy. With increasing interest in uncertainties of thermal process models, it is important to quantify the property

Atomic-scale mechanism of unidirectional oxide growth

November 14, 2019
Author(s)
Xianhu Sun, Wenhui Zhu, Dongxiang WU, Zhenyu Liu, Xiaobo Chen, Lu Yuan, Guofeng Wang, Renu Sharma, Guangwen Zhou
A fundamental knowledge of the unidirectional growth mechanisms is required for precise control on size, shape, and thereby functionalities of nanostructures. Using transmission electron microscopy that spatially and temporally resolves CuO nanowire growth

ENTHALPY OF FORMATION OF AQUEOUS HYDROFLUORIC ACID: REVISION NEEDED?

November 7, 2019
Author(s)
Yauheni Paulechka, Andrei F. Kazakov
Accurate enthalpies of formation of hydrofluoric acid in the gas and liquid states as well as in aqueous solutions are critical for reduction and interpretation of combustion calorimetry data for fluorinated compounds. Analysis of current recommendations

Thermophysical Properties of Polyol Ester Lubricants

August 20, 2019
Author(s)
Thomas J. Bruno, Tara Fortin, Marcia L. Huber, Arno D. Laesecke, Eric Lemmon, Elisabeth Mansfield, Mark O. McLinden, Stephanie L. Outcalt, Richard A. Perkins, Kimberly N. Urness, Jason A. Widegren
This report summarizes the results of work performed for the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Applied Chemicals and Materials Division on the properties of polyol ester lubricants

The hunt for refrigerant blends to replace R-134a

August 1, 2019
Author(s)
Ian H. Bell, Piotr A. Domanski, Gregory T. Linteris, Mark O. McLinden
We investigated refrigerant blends as possible low GWP (global warming potential) alternatives for R-134a in an air-conditioning application. We carried out an extensive screening of the binary, ternary, and four-component blends possible among a list of

Miniaturized Nanohole Array Based Plasmonic Sensor for the Detection of Acetone and Ethanol with Insights into the Kinetics of Adsorptive Plasmonic Sensing

June 6, 2019
Author(s)
Yangyang Zhao, Kalisadhan Mukherjee, Kurt D. Benkstein, Libin Sun, Kristen L. Steffens, Christopher B. Montgomery, Stephen Semancik, Mona Zaghloul
The present work demonstrates development of a miniaturized plasmonic platform comprised of a Au nanohole array (NHA) on a Si/Si3N4 substrate. Plasmonic responses of the NHA platform, which is coated with Cu-benzenetricarboxylate metal organic framework

Diaphragmless Single Pulse Shock Tube for High-Temperature Chemical Kinetics Studies

June 3, 2019
Author(s)
William Sean McGivern, Iftikhar A. Awan, Jeffrey A. Manion
Single pulse shock tubes are effective tools for measuring chemical kinetics at high temperatures, typically (900–1400) K. However, the use of a diaphragm for shock generation leads to significant shock-to- shock inconsistencies in temperature for a

Application of the group contribution volume translated Peng-Robinson equation of state to new commercial refrigerant mixtures

April 29, 2019
Author(s)
Ian H. Bell, Jonathan Welliquet, Maria Mondejar, Sylvain Quoilin, Ala Bazyleva, Frederik Haglind
The search of new refrigerants complying with the most recent environmental regulations must be supported by the availability of simple and reliable models for the prediction of their thermophysical behavior, both as pure substances and as mixtures. Cubic

Ligand-based stability changes in duplex DNA measured with a microscale electrochemical platform

April 12, 2019
Author(s)
Sarah M. Robinson, Zuliang Shen, Jon R. Askim, Christopher B. Montgomery, Herman O. Sintim, Stephen Semancik
Development of technologies for rapidly screening the thermal stability of DNA secondary structures and the effects on stability for binding of small molecule drugs is important to the drug discovery process. In this report, we describe the capabilities of
