Fabrication of amorphous lamellar freestanding poly(N‐dodecyl acrylamide) films and their mechanical properties

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
A freestanding film of completely uniaxially oriented amorphous lamellae was produced. The film exhibited enhanced tensile strength with increasing orientation of the lamella. Abstract An amorphous lamellar freestanding film composed of poly(N‐dodecyl acrylamide) (pDDA) was prepared by annealing a micrometer‐thick film under humid conditions (humid ...

Relative measurement and extrapolation of the scintillation quenching factor of $$\alpha $$ α -particles in liquid argon using DEAP-3600 data

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
The knowledge of scintillation quenching of $$\alpha $$ α -particles plays a paramount role in understanding $$\alpha $$ α -induced backgrounds and improving the sensitivity of liquid argon-based direct detection of dark matter experiments.

Robust β‐myrcene block copolymer elastomeric vitrimers

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Myrcene‐based vitrimeric elastomers were compared: statistical (poly(styrene‐stat‐myrcene‐stat‐AAEMA)] versus ‘hard–soft’ diblock (poly(styrene)‐block‐poly(myrcene‐co‐AAEMA)). The diblock's ability to anchor the glassy poly(styrene) blocks in a self‐assembled microstructure was effective – leading to four times higher tensile stress and ten times ...

Simulating Arctic Greening: Microbial Responses in Thawing Yedoma Permafrost

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arctic permafrost soils and sediments store vast amounts of organic carbon. With global warming intensifying, these soils are increasingly exposed to microbial decomposition. Further, Arctic warming and longer growing seasons drive regional greening, potentially accelerating the degradation of the previously frozen organic matter through ...

J Radioanal Nucl Chem [PDF]

open access: yes
Rapid detection and quantification of gross alpha/beta-emitting radionuclides by liquid scintillation counting (LSC) is vital in guiding response to a nuclear or radiological incidents. Liquid scintillation counters use signal pulse shape to discriminate

¹⁴C dating of modern marine and estuarine shellfish

open access: yes, 1998
We measured the ¹⁴C content of 36 living marine molluscs from Tairua Harbour and the rocky coast on the Coromandel Peninsula of New Zealand. We identified species suitable for radiocarbon dating and show that the open marine intertidal zone is enriched ...
