The effect of Sm micro-alloying on non-isothermal and isothermal crystallization kinetics of (Zr50Cu40Al10)(100-x)Sm-x (x = 0, 2, 4 at. % Sm) alloys were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Crystallization activation energies for each composition were calculated in non-isothermal conditions using Kissinger and Ozawa methods and in isothermal conditions using Johnson-Mehl-Avrami model. XRD analysis showed that crystallization product Cu10Zr7 changes to Cu2Sm with Sm presence in isothermal conditions. Both isothermal and isochronal calculations yield that the energy barrier for crystallization has increased with Sm addition. On the other hand, crystallization point drops to lower temperature at the expense of an increase in the pre-exponential factor. The Avrami exponents for all compositions were found to be below 2.5, indicating that crystallization was governed by a diffusion-controlled three-dimensional growth with a decreasing nucleation rate. The apparent increase in crystallization activation energies with increasing Sm content can be one of the affecting factors for commonly held idea of increased glass forming ability for rare-earth containing Zr-based metallic glasses.

Effect of stabilizer type on the activity and stability of water-dispersible cobalt(0) nanocluster catalysts in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of sodium borohydride
Metin, Onder; Koçak, Ebru; ÖZKAR, SAİM (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2011-08-01)
Hydrogen phosphate (HPO4 2−) or poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) stabilized cobalt(0) nanoclusters were in situ generated from the reduction of cobalt(II) chloride during the catalytic hydrolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) in the presence of stabilizers, HPO4 2− or PAA. Cobalt(0) nanoclusters stabilized by HPO4 2− or PAA were characterized by using UV–Visible spectroscopy, TEM, XPS and FT-IR techniques. They were employed as catalysts in the hydrolysis of NaBH4 to examine the effect of stabilizer type on their c...
The positional effect of dodecagonal holes on C-56 structure
Türker, Burhan Lemi (Elsevier BV, 2004-05-14)
Some C-56 isomers obtained theoretically from C-60 structure by deleting two C-2 units and bonds adjacent to those have been subjected to AM1 (UHF) type semiempirical quantum chemical calculations. Positional effects of dodecagonal (cyclododecahexaene rings) holes on the stabilities are discussed in the case of neutral as well as monovalent cationic form of these species which are all stable but endothermic in nature.
High-temperature bromination XIII: Bromination of dimethyl 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene-2,3-dicarboxylate
Simsek, N; Arici, C; McKee, ML; Ulku, D; Balcı, Metin (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2001-08-01)
The electrophilic addition of bromine to dimethyl 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene-2,3-dicarboxylate 10 at 0 and -60 degreesC led in high yield to the formation of dibromide 11. However, high-temperature bromination of 10 in carbon tetrachloride at 77 degreesC gave four products 12-15, three of them with nonrearranged skeleton. Similarly, bromination of the dibromides 14 and 15 at 77 degreesC yielded the nonrearranged tetrabromides 13 and 16, respectively. The structure of the tetrabromide 13 was solved b...
Enhanced solubility of siloxy-modified polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes in supercritical carbon dioxide
Demirtas, Cansu; Dilek Hacıhabiboğlu, Çerağ (Elsevier BV, 2019-01-01)
Alkyl siloxy functionalization increases the solubility of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) in supercritical carbon dioxide over an order of magnitude compared to its counterpart with fluoroalkyl groups. The studied component, octatrimethylsiloxy POSS also exhibits higher solubility than other previously studied POSS types with various alkyl and methacryl groups. The octatrimethylsiloxy POSS-CO2 solid-vapor equilibrium curves have been constructed at temperatures between 308 and 328 K by measuri...
Crosslinked polymer gels for boron extraction derived from N-glucidol-N-methyl-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate
Bicak, N; Ozbelge, HO; Yılmaz, Levent; Senkal, BF (Wiley, 2000-03-24)
Glycidyl methacrylate was reacted in 2-methyl pyrrolidone solution with N-methyl-D-glucamine (NMG) to produce N-D-glucidol, N-methyl-2-hydroxy propyl methacrylate (GMHP). The reaction proceeded exclusively via ring opening of the oxirane. The resulting vinyl monomer was a waxy product and soluble in water, ethanol, methanol, DMF, and NMP. Copolymerization of GMHP with N,N'-tetraallyl piperazinium dichloride by the inverse suspension method (water in oil), using a toluene/chloroform (3:1) mixture as continuo...
