    This work describes the synthesis, characterization and study of properties of novel multifunctional composite materials obtained by natural-rubber latex and a special kind of multi-walled carbon nanotube (CNT), in which the cavities are filled by magnetic species. To prepare stable aqueous dispersions of CNTs, two approaches have been employed, based on a mixture of the surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate or a previous treatment with a mixture of acid solutions. The composites have been characterized by infrared and Raman spectroscopy, X-ray micro-tomography, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, and atomic and magnetic force microscopy. A good adhesion between the CNTs and the polymer matrices was obtained. Several samples have been prepared containing different amounts of CNTs (from 0.01 to 10 wt.%), and the effect of carbon nanotubes in the electrical, mechanical, chemical and thermal properties of the composites was evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis, resistivity measurements, stress-strain mechanical tests and solvent sorption measurements. The occurrence of networks of CNTs in the polymeric matrices provided significant increases in all of these properties. Additionally, because of the species encapsulated in CNT, the composites exhibit magnetic behavior, confirmed by magnetic force microscopy. This approach results in novel multifunctional material with great potential for further applications. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

    New Polyaniline/porous Glass Composite

    No full text
    In this work we report the preparation of a glass-polymer composite, obtained by the in situ oxidative polymerization of aniline, in the pores of Porous Vycor Glass (PVG). A piece of PVG was added to acid aniline solution. PVG adsorbs aniline via an ion-exchange process (H+ from PVG porous surface/C6H5NH3 +). The impregnated PVG was added to a (NH4)2S2O8 acid solution. The glass gradually went to dark green with the formation of polyaniline in its conducting form, the emeraldine salt. The counter-anions are the SiO- groups on the pores surface of the glass, as confirmed by 29Si-CP-MAS-NMR. Addition of the composite to an NH4OH solution leads do a change from dark green to dark blue (emeraldine base), and this process is reversible.8401/03/15107108Chinn, D., Dubow, J., Liess, M., Josowicz, M., Janata, J., (1995) Chem.

    No full text
    In this work we report the preparation of a inorganic-organic nanocomposite, obtained by the in situ oxidative polymerization of aniline inside the layers of α-Sn(HPO4)2.H2O (α-SnP). Two approaches were used to obtain the α-SnP/polyaniline nanocomposite. Firstly, hydrogen atoms of α-SnP were exchanged with Fe3+ cation to promote aniline polymerization. Secondly, aniline was intercalated in α-SnP and polymerization was performed by (NH4)2S2O8 solution. Both resulting material leads to formation of polyaniline in its conducting form, the emeraldine salt. The characterization results suggest the formation of linear polymer chains between the α-SnP layers.1021-312771278Geniès, E.M., Boyle, A., Lapkowski, M., Tsintavis, C., (1990) Synth.

    No full text
    This work describes a green route to multifunctional nanocomposite materials composed of natural rubber (NR) latex and graphene (rGO) or graphene oxide (GO). Aqueous solutions with different concentrations of GO and rGO (prepared with the surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide - CTAB) were mixed with natural rubber latex under magnetic stirring followed by sonication. The slurries obtained after casting were dried in an oven in air at 70 °C for 24 h. The nanocomposites were characterized by TEM and SEM, AFM and KFM. The thermal, electrical and mechanical properties were evaluated using TGA, resistivity measurements (four-point) and DMA. Swelling tests were performed using three solvents with different polarities: xylene, isopropanol and water. The inclusion of filler networks in the polymeric matrices provided significant improvements in the electrical, chemical and mechanical properties, in comparison to the unfilled polymer. In addition, the nanocomposites proved to be biodegradable. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

    Nanocomposites Glass/conductive Polymers

    We report on the preparation and characterization of two glass/conducting polymer nanocomposites obtained by the in situ oxidative polymerization of pyrrole and aniline inside the pores of Porous Vycor Glass (PVG). Oxidative polymerization of pyrrole was done via Cu2+ cation impregnated in the PVG pores. The polymerization of aniline was undertaken by impregnating PVG with the monomer, followed by an acid solution of (NH4)2S2O8. These nanocomposites were characterized by diffuse reflectance FT infrared spectroscopy, UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, Raman spectroscopy, solid state 13C and 29Si CP-MAS-NMR, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry and conductivity measurements. The results showed that both polymers are formed inside the PVG pores in their oxidized conductive state, with the Si-O- groups of the glass surface acting as counter-anions. The dimensions of the pores of the glass preclude cross-linking of the polymers, allowing only formations of linear chains. The results suggest the formation of polymeric wires in the bulk of the glass substrate. © 1999 Elsevier Science S.A.

    New Route For The Obtention Of Cadmium Antimony Oxide Semiconducting Ceramic Powders

    No full text
    Here we describe a new route for the obtention of the non-stoichiometric compound Cd2Sb2O7-x, through the thermal decomposition of cadmium-exchanged crystalline antimonic acid (CAA/Cd). Cadmium-exchanged crystalline antimonic acid already has the pyrochlore-type structure, and it seems to us that the precursor structure plays an important role in the formation of the final product. This new synthetic route presents some advantages compared to the other methods mentioned: (i) The synthesis is carried out at lower temperatures and for reduced heating times;, (ii) The ceramic powders are obtained from only one precursor reagent, leading to a final product with great chemical and phase purities. It is important to note that the ion-exchanged modified host structures provide an interesting way to prepare oxide ceramics powders.13860760

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    Full text link
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
