cis-Dichloridobis(2-isocyanophenyl 4-methoxybenzoate)palladium(II) chloroform monosolvate
2012
In the title compound, [PdCl2(C15H11NO3)2]·CHCl3, the PdII atom adopts a slightly distorted square-planar coordination geometry composed of two Cl atoms in cis positions and two C atoms from isocyanophenyl ligands. The molecular conformation is stabilized by π–π stacking interactions [shortest centroid–centroid distance = 3.600 (1) Å] between substituted benzene rings of different ligands. The crystal packing is characterized by C—H...O and C—H...Cl interactions involving the chloroform solvent molecules.
Small-Angle Scattering from Phase-Separated Metallic Alloys: From Experiment to Phase Diagrams
1994
In this paper, phase-separated metallic alloys are described in terms of concentration fluctuations. As a consequence, Small Angle Scattering equations which allow to calculate the entire scattering curve by incorporating particle-particle interference effects on the basis of the Percus-Yevick formalism, are obtained. It is shown that, for Aluminium-Lithium alloys, satisfactory fits of the experimental data can be obtained if it is assumed that Li rich elliptical monodisperse precipitate particles approach each other at average distances which are larger than the sum of the hard-sphere particle radii. It is also shown that a possible ambiguity of this model, within the Percus-Yevick formali…
Microencapsulation of antioxidant compounds through innovative technologies and its specific application in meat processing
2018
Background Meat has a complex physical structure and chemical composition that is very prone to oxidation. Plants are sources of biologically active compounds (antioxidants) of interest as potential raw materials for meat processing, primary as replacements for synthetic additives. Some examples are essential oils from aromatic plants that are usually unstable under common processing and storage conditions and exhibit strong smell and off flavour. Hence, stable delivery systems like encapsulation are required. Scope and approach Encapsulation, and particularly spray-drying, offers protection of active compounds, their controlled and targeted release in food products and ability to mask unac…
Separation properties of (n, m)-IFS attractors
2017
Abstract The separation properties of self similar sets are discussed in this article. An open set condition for the (n, m)- iterated function system is introduced and the concepts of self similarity, similarity dimension and Hausdorff dimension of the attractor generated by an (n, m) - iterated function system are studied. It is proved that the similarity dimension and the Hausdorff dimension of the attractor of an (n, m) - iterated function system are equal under this open set condition. Further a necessary and sufficient condition for a set to satisfy the open set condition is established.
Porous measures on $\mathbb {R}^{n}$: Local structure and dimensional properties
2001
We study dimensional properties of porous measures on R n . As a corollary of a theorem describing the local structure of nearly uniformly porous measures we prove that the packing dimension of any Radon measure on R n has an upper bound depending on porosity. This upper bound tends to n - 1 as porosity tends to its maximum value.
The packing dimension of projections and sections of measures
1996
AbstractWe show that for a probability measure μ on ℝnfor almost all m–dimensional subspaces V, provided dimH μ≤m. Here projv denotes orthogonal projection onto V, and dimH and dimp denote the Hausdorff and packing dimension of a measure. In the case dimH μ > m we show that at μ-almost all points x the slices of μ by almost all (n − m)-planes Vx through x satisfyWe give examples to show that these inequalities are sharp.
Dynamic self-assembly of non-Brownian spheres studied by molecular dynamics simulations.
2015
Granular self-assembly of confined non-Brownian spheres under gravity is studied by molecular dynamics simulations. Starting from a disordered phase, dry or cohesive spheres organize, by vibrational annealing, into body-centered-tetragonal or face-centered-cubic structures, respectively. During the self-assembling process, isothermal and isodense points are observed. The existence of such points indicates that both granular temperature and packing fraction undergo an inversion process that may be in the core of crystal nucleation. Around the isothermal point, a sudden growth of granular clusters having the maximum coordination number takes place, indicating the outcome of a first-order phas…
Crystal polymorphism of (μ4–O)-body centered adamantanoid Cu(II) complexes
2016
Abstract Two novel polymorphs of [Cu4(μ4–O)(μ–Cl)6(DASO)4], (DASO = diallyl sulfoxide; C6H10OS), rhombic (C) and triclinic (D), were obtained and examined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis at two temperatures, 295(2) and 100(1) K. This study, in addition to our recent work on the tetragonal (A) and trigonal (B) forms of the title compound, allowed determining the nature of polymorphism and temperature-induced phase transitions. It is stated that both the packing arrangement and the displacive transformation integrate these structures, forming the symmetrically and thermodynamically related series: A,B → C → D. The C3h → C4 distortion of Cu(II) trigonal bipyramidal coordination ge…
Independent ion migration in suspensions of strongly interacting charged colloidal spheres
1999
We report on sytematic measurements of the low frequency conductivity in aequous supensions of highly charged colloidal spheres. System preparation in a closed tubing system results in precisely controlled number densities between 1E16/m3 and 1E19/m^3 (packing fractions between 1E-7 and 1E-2) and electrolyte concentrations between 1E-7 and 1E-3 mol/l. Due to long ranged Coulomb repulsion some of the systems show a pronounced fluid or crystalline order. Under deionized conditions we find s to depend linearily on the packing fraction with no detectable influence of the phase transitions. Further at constant packing fraction s increases sublinearily with increasing number of dissociable surfac…
Phase diagram and structure of colloid-polymer mixtures confined between walls
2006
The influence of confinement, due to flat parallel structureless walls, on phase separation in colloid-polymer mixtures, is investigated by means of grand-canonical Monte Carlo simulations. Ultra-thin films, with thicknesses between $D=3-10$ colloid diameters, are studied. The Asakura-Oosawa model [J. Chem. Phys. 22, 1255 (1954)] is used to describe the particle interactions. To simulate efficiently, a ``cluster move'' [J. Chem. Phys. 121, 3253 (2004)] is used in conjunction with successive umbrella sampling [J. Chem. Phys. 120, 10925 (2004)]. These techniques, when combined with finite size scaling, enable an accurate determination of the unmixing binodal. Our results show that the critica…
