The Effect of Processing on Interfacial Shear Properties of Composite Materials

January 1, 2000
Author(s)
Walter G. McDonough, Joy P. Dunkers, Gale A. Holmes, Richard~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined Parnas
The objective of our research was to extend the use of the single fiber fragmentation test to include fast reacting resin systems and to determine the effect of gelation time on interfacial shear properties. To do this work, we developed a processing

Structural investigation of (Sr 4-d Ca d )PtO 6 Using X-Ray Rietveld Refinement

August 16, 1999
Author(s)
Winnie K. Wong-Ng, James A. Kaduk, R A. Young, F Jiang
The structures of the solid solution series (Sr 4-δCa δ)PtO 6, with δ = 0, 0.85(1), 2, and 3, have been investigated using the Rietveld refinement technique with laboratory x-ray powder data. A complete solid solution between Sr and Ca was confirmed to

A Unique Institution: The History of NBS, 1950-1969

June 30, 1999
Author(s)
E Passaglia, K A. Beal
A follow-on to Measures for Progress by Rexmond C. Cochrane, this work covers the history of the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) from 1950-1969. While the book focuses on technical work, the management and administration of the Bureau are also discussed

The International Institute of Welding: Report on 1998 Actions

May 3, 1999
Author(s)
Thomas A. Siewert
Commission V covers issues of weld inspection and quality control for the International Institute of Welding (IIW). This report summarizes the information presented at the 1998 Annual Assembly: descriptions of both research and draft ISO standards being

Characterization of Composite Microstructure and Damage Using Optical Coherence Tomography

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
Joy Dunkers, C G. Zimba, Kathleen M. Flynn, Donald L. Hunston, R Prasankumar, X Li, J G. Fujimoto
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-destructive and non-contact technique that images microstructure within scattering media. In this work, the versatility of OCT for non-destructive evaluation is demonstrated through imaging of composite

Characterization of Ternary Compounds in the BaO:Fe 2 O 3 :TiO 2 System: Ba 6 Fe 45 Ti 17 O 106 and BaFe 11 Ti 3 O 23

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
Terrell A. Vanderah, Winnie K. Wong-Ng, B H. Toby, V. M. Browning, Robert D. Shull, Richard G. Geyer, Robert S. Roth
Single crystals of Ba 6Fe 45Ti 17O 106 and BaFe 11Ti 3O 23 were obtained as major and minor co-products, respectively, by slow-cooling an off-stoichiometric BaO:Fe 2O 3:TiO 2 melt. The former compound exhibits variable stoichiometry Ba 6Fe 48-xTi 14+xO 106

Optical Coherence Tomography of Glass Reinforced Polymer Composites

January 1, 1999
Author(s)
Joy Dunkers, Richard~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined Parnas, C G. Zimba, R C. Peterson, Kathleen M. Flynn, J G. Fujimoto, B E. Bouma
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-destructive and non-contact technique to image microstructure within scattering media. The application of OCT to highly scattering materials such as polymer composites is especially challenging. In this work, OCT

Sample-Angle Feedback for Diffraction Anomalous Fine-Structure Spectroscopy

May 1, 1998
Author(s)
J O. Cross, W Elam, V G. Harris, J P. Kirkland, Charles E. Bouldin, L B. Sorensen
Diffraction anomalous fine-structure (DAFS) experiments measure Bragg peak intensities as continuous functions of photon energy near a core-level excitation. Measuring the integrated intensity at each energy makes the experiments prohibitively slow

X-Ray Diffraction Topography of Sapphire for Windows and Domes

March 30, 1998
Author(s)
David R. Black
X-ray diffraction topography has been used as a nondestructive characterization tool to investigate single-crystal sapphire for window and dome applications. A variety of examples are shown that demonstrate the utility of x-ray diffraction imaging as a

Multiple Fiber Technique for the Single Fiber Fragmentation Test

March 1, 1998
Author(s)
Chang K. Moon, Walter G. McDonough
The single fiber fragmentation test has been modified by embedding multiple fibers into matrix resin. During testing, we examined the interfacial shear strengths between the fibers and the matrix. In addition, the time-dependent nature of the fragmentation

Workshop on Micromechanics Measurement Technologies for Fiber-Polymer Interfaces

May 1, 1997
Author(s)
Walter G. McDonough, Richard~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined Parnas, Gale A. Holmes, Donald L. Hunston
The Polymers Division hosted the Workshop on Micromechanics Measurement Technologies for Fiber-Polymer Interfaces, jointly sponsored by NIST and the Textile Research Institute of Princeton, NJ, on May 28-30, 1997. Fifty researchers from industry, academia

Thermomechanical Detwinning of Superconducting YBa2Cu3O7-x Single Crystals

July 11, 1989
Author(s)
Debra L. Kaiser, Frank W. Gayle, Robert S. Roth, L Swartzendruber
A method for the complete removal of twins from single crystals of superconducting YBa2Cu3O7-x is described. The process depends on ferroelastic behavior found to exist in the phase, and should be generally applicable to the layered perovskite-type phases

Characterizing and Fractionating Native Cellulose Nanofibers

Author(s)
Iulia A. Sacui, Jeffrey W. Gilman
Cellulose nanofibers have good elastic modulus properties and can be used as nano-reinforcements in polymer composites. Native cellulose nanofibers from wood, Tunicate, and bacteria (Acetobacter xylium) were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM)
