The presence of polycarboxylate ether (PCE) based superplasticizers (SPs) has an enormous influence on the early hydration of cement. The hydration is retarded and the timing of formation and the morphology of hydrates is affected. This short paper presents experimental results about the influence of delayed addition time of PCE SPs on hydration of cement and alite pastes, investigated by isothermal heat flow calorimetry. For cement as well as for alite pastes the hydration is retarded with SP, whereby the high charge PCE has a stronger retarding effect than the low charge PCE. The retardation caused by PCE is much more pronounced for alite than for cement mixes. If PCE is added later to the mix, the induction period is shortened and the hydration is accelerated compared to simultaneous addition. This applies for cement and alite pastes. With delayed PCE addition the alite shows a clearly less retarded setting and main hydration than after simultaneous addition. It is obvious that for alite pastes there is less retardation the later the addition of SP.
The presence of polycarboxylate ether (PCE) based superplasticizers (SPs) has an enormous influence on the early hydration of cement. The hydration is retarded and the timing of formation and the morphology of hydrates is affected. This short paper presents experimental results about the influence of delayed Addition time of PCE SPs on hydration of cement and tricalcium aluminate (C3A) pastes, investigated by isothermal heat flow calorimetry. For cement pastes the hydration is retarded with SP, whereby the high charge PCE has a stronger retarding effect than the low charge PCE. With delayed PCE addition the cement shows a less retarded setting than with simultaneous addition. The alteration caused by PCE is much more pronounced for C3A and gypsum mixes than for cement. If the SP is added simultaneous, the exothermic peak of C3A is retarded. However, with delayed addition of SP the hydration is shortened, the gypsum depletion is fastened and the exothermic peak occurs less retarded or even accelerated compared to simultaneous addition. It is obvious that for C3A pastes there is less retardation the later the Addition of SP. Furthermore, the PCE alter the hydration of C3A when added delayed and exhibit changes in kinetics and hydration rates. The rate of reaction in the second stage is lower, discernible in decreased slopes and broader peaks. Besides this, a distinct ramp in the C3A heat flow curves within the first stage of C3A hydration occurs for all pastes with delayed addition of SP, which suggests an accelerated ettringite formation.
The damage caused by ionizing radiation to DNA and proteins is the reason to treat cancer by radiation therapy. A better understanding of the molecular processes and quantification of the different damaging mechanisms is the prerequisite to develop more efficient therapies. Hereby the understanding of the processes involved in the damage to DNA are of key interest due to its central role in reproduction and mutation.
For radiation with low linear energy transfer (LET), most of the damage is caused by the secondary particles produced by scattering of the ionizing radiation with water. Thereby a multitude of species are produced, whereby especially kinetic low energy electrons, prehydrated electrons, OH-radicals and ions are of importance. With higher LET the relative amount of the direct damaging effects increases. This is especially important considering the increased usage of high LET nucleons in radiation therapy. Therefore, the quantification of the contribution to DNA damage of direct and indirect effects and the different secondary species is of high interest due to the increase of radio biological efficiency when applying high LET radiation.
Here we present an approach to investigate the relative contributions to DNA strand break yield for radiation of different LET within a single electron microscope in combination with electron scattering simulations.
Chemical, morphological and accumulation phenomena in ultrashort-pulse laser ablation of TiN in air
(2000)
Ultrashort-pulse laser ablation (F=130 fs, 5=800 nm, repetition rate 2-20 Hz) of titanium nitride was investigated for laser fluences between 0.3 and 4.5 J/cm2 using the direct focusing technique in air. The influence of the laser pulse number and the peak fluence was investigated by means of several surface analytical techniques (optical microscopy, dynamic friction atomic force microscopy, scanning Auger electron microscopy and small-spot electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis). The correlation of the results about optical, physical and chemical properties of the irradiated areas allows us to propose a simple oxidation model, which explains different observed phenomena associated with surface damage such as mound formation and crater widening and clarifies the incubation behavior reported earlier for this material.
We present dynamic plowing nanolithography on polymethylmethacrylate films, performed with a scan-linearized atomic force microscope able to scan up to 250 μm with high resolution. Modifications of the surface are obtained by plastically indenting the film surface with a vibrating tip. By changing the oscillation amplitude of the cantilever, i.e., the indentation depth, surfaces can be either imaged or modified. A program devoted to the control of the scanning process is also presented. The software basically converts the gray scale of pixel images into voltages used to control the dither piezo driving cantilever oscillations. The advantages of our experimental setup and the dependence of lithography efficiency on scanning parameters are discussed. Some insights into the process of surface modifications are presented.
A broadband dielectric study of the dispersions of silica spheres (Aerosil 380) in octylcyanobiphenyl (8CB) with densities between 0.083 and 10 g of silica per 1 cm3 of liquid crystal (LC) is reported. High values of silica densities were achieved for the first time to observe the behaviour of the LC monolayer on the surface of the silica particles. The relaxation characteristic of the bulk LC is noticed especially for the samples with low silica densities. Additionally, a slow relaxation was detected, even at temperatures for which the bulk LC is in the crystalline state. It was assigned to the surface layer of LC molecules. Remarkably, the temperature dependence of the relaxation rates for this slow process shows a behaviour typical for glass-forming liquids.
The physical properties as well as the thickness of the interphase between polymer and reinforcing phase are generally expected to show a strong influence on the macroscopic mechanical properties of composite materials. In this study the scanning force microscope (SFM) has been applied for detecting stiffness gradients near the interface between copper and epoxide. In displacement modulation mode the load exerted by the tip is modulated sinusoidally by vibrating the normal position of the cantilever or the sample. The corresponding amplitude of dynamic cantilever bending is related to local surface stiffness. Thus, using the SFM, the local mechanical properties of the surface under investigation can be probed. When scanning the tip across the reinforcement/polymer interface, the polymeric interphasial zone can be identified with the observed stiffness gradient. For a commercial epoxide based on diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) cured with an amine-containing hardener, a stiffness gradient was detected that could be fitted by a Gaussian profile typical for diffusional processes. The width of the stiffness gradient was 280 nm. The observation is discussed in terms of interface-induced segregation processes between resin and hardener, as well as heat conduction mechanisms that can occur during the exothermic curing reaction. Both mechanisms are diffusional in nature and, via the local network structure, are expected to show some influence on the local stiffness of the cured epoxy. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Scanning force microscopy (SFM) has been used to assess the local mechanical properties of fibre-reinforced polymers. Using a sinusoidal displacement modulation (DM) and lock-in technique the method allows to characterize local viscoelastic properties with a high lateral resolution. The simultaneous measurement of the local electrical conductivity is proposed which facilitates the interpretation of the mechanical data. The investigation of cross-sections perpendicular to the axis of carbon fibres embedded in PPS delivers some information about the change in local stiffness within the interfacial region. As a first approach, assuming a single-exponential decrease in local stiffness along a radial line from fibre to polymer we find characteristic decay lengths which are distributed in a range between 20 and 80nm. Further, a modified DM-mode is proposed which is expected to provide a contrast enhancement of the signal which is related to local stiffness. This can be achieved by installing an additional feedback loop which keeps constant the amplitude of dynamic indentation (CDI-mode).
Antimony clusters of different shapes and dimensions have been obtained by evaporating antimony on graphite. The dependence of the shape and dimensions of the particles on the evaporation parameters (effective layer thickness, temperature, pressure) is discussed. A characterisation of the different structures is presented. In particular, the decoration of graphite steps is discussed. Clusters have been dislocated by means of dynamic plowing nanolithography, both in vector and in image pattern mode. The dependence of the energy needed to dislocate a cluster on its dimensions and position is discussed.
