Criticality and convergence in Newtonian collapse [PDF]

, 2002
We study through numerical simulation the spherical collapse of isothermal gas in Newtonian gravity. We observe a critical behavior which occurs at the threshold of gravitational instability leading to core formation. For a given initial density profile,

Efficient One‐Pot Preparation of Thermoresponsive Polyurethanes with Lower Critical Solution Temperatures [PDF]

ChemPlusChem, 2021
AbstractThis work reports a simple and scalable strategy to prepare a series of thermoresponsive polyurethanes synthesized via copolymerization of dicyclohexyl diisocyanate with glycerol ethoxylate in a single one‐pot system. These polyurethanes exhibit lower critical solution temperatures (LCST) at 57 °C.
