UCST-Type Polymer Capsules Formed by Interfacial Complexation
Formation of aqueous-core polymer capsules exhibiting an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) was achieved using surfactant-polymer interfacial complexation in water-in-oil inverse emulsions. In fluorinated oil, Coulombic interactions between Krytox, an anionic oil-soluble surfactant, and a cationic poly(lysine) grafted with poly(acrylamide-co ...

INTERDEPENDENCE BETWEEN POINT LOAD INDEX, COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH AND CRUSHING RESISTANCE OF JORDAN OIL SHALE AND RELATION TO CALORIFIC VALUE; pp. 252–268 [PDF]
Rock parameters are important to be considered in mine design. Physical-mechanical tests were carried out on oil shale and dolostone samples from the Attarat Um Ghudran oil shale area in central Jordan, in order to determine the rock mass properties.

Activity of water in aqueous systems; A frequently neglected property [PDF]
In this critical review, the significance of the term ‘activity’ is examined in the context of the properties of aqueous solutions. The dependence of the activity of water(ℓ) at ambient pressure and 298.15 K on solute molality is examined for aqueous ...

Tuning the Size of Thermoresponsive Poly(N-Isopropyl Acrylamide) Grafted Silica Microgels
Core-shell microgels were synthesized via a free radical emulsion polymerization of thermoresponsive poly-(N-isopropyl acrylamide), pNipam, on the surface of silica nanoparticles. Pure pNipam microgels have a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of

Gluodynamics String as a Low-Energy Limit of the Universal Confining String Theory
An effective string theory emerging from the bilocal approximation to the Method of Vacuum Correlators in gluodynamics is shown to be well described by the 4D theory of the massive Abelian Kalb-Ramond field interacting with the string, which is known to ...
