This article focuses on the preparation of the heterogeneous ion exchange membrane with a special surface structure made with three types of knitted fabric. The special surface structure of ion exchange membranes can be useful for the intensification of mass transfer processes in electrodialysis.Three types of structured ion exchange membranes were prepared together with a membrane with a flat surface to compare the influence of geometrical structures on the behaviour of ion exchange membrane properties. Electrochemical, mechanical and physical properties were determined. Structured membranes exhibited comparable electrochemical and physical properties to the flat ion exchange membrane. Some transport parameters were measured in an electrodialysis stack with two concentrations of solution. Two electrodialysis stacks with different sizes of active area were used for comparison. Improving efficiency and mass flux was not confirmed. It was not demonstrated that structured IEMs were not better than IEMs with the flat surface.

The electrical resistivity of fluorinated carbon black particles, CFx, is reported as a function of fluorine content, pressure, and temperature. Fluorination does not destroy the aggregate structure of carbon black, but does change its physical properties. The resistivity changes from 10−2 to 10+12 Ω cm as x increases from 0 to 1.2, with a very rapid change occurring in the range 0.08≤x≤0.27. Samples with x = 0 and x = 0.07 exhibit a pressure dependence described by p∝ P−s with s>0. Fully fluorinated samples (x = 1.2) have s≃0. Intermediate compositions have low-pressure regimes where the resistivity is independent of pressure, and high-pressure regimes with s>0. For all samples exhibiting pressure-dependent resistivity, s increases as x increases. For samples with low-fluorine content, the resisitivity increases with decreasing temperature. These observations are interpreted in terms of structure, especially surface structure.

AbstractThe physical properties of NEOs and other asteroids are mostly obtained with photometry. The resulting models describe the shapes, spin states, scattering properties and surface structure of the targets, and are the solutions of inverse problems involving comprehensive mathematical analysis. We review what can and cannot be obtained from photometric (and complementary) data, and how all this is done in practice. The role of photometry will become completely dominating with the advent of large-scale surveys capable of producing calibrated brightness data. Due to their quickly changing geometries with respect to the Earth, NEOs are the population that can be mapped the fastest.

The Ap stars are numerous - the photometric systems tool It would be very tedious to review in detail all that which is in the literature concerning the photometry of the Ap stars. In my opinion it is necessary to examine the problem of the photometric properties of the Ap stars by considering first of all the possibility of deriving some physical properties for the Ap stars, or of detecting new ones. My talk today is prepared in this spirit. The classification by means of photoelectric photometric systems is at the present time very well established for many systems, such as UBV, uvbyβ, Vilnius, Geneva and DDO systems. Details and methods of classification can be found in Golay (1974) or in the proceedings of the Albany Colloquium edited by Philip and Hayes (1975).

Recent electron microscope studies have greatly expanded our knowledge of the structure of the Microsporida, particularly of the developing and mature spore. Since these studies involved mainly sectioned material, they have revealed much internal detail of the spores but relatively little surface detail. This report concerns observations on the spore surface by means of the transmission electron microscope.

The carbon-replica technique can be used to obtain information about cell-surface structure that cannot ordinarily be obtained by thin-section techniques. Mammalian erythrocytes have been studied by the replica technique and they appear to be characterized by a pebbly or “plaqued“ surface texture. The characteristic “particle” diameter is about 200 Å to 400 Å. We have now extended our observations on cell-surface structure to chicken and frog erythrocytes, which possess a broad range of cellular functions, and to normal rat lymphocytes and mouse ascites tumor cells, which are capable of cell division. In these experiments fresh cells were washed in Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium Salt Solution (for suspension cultures) and one volume of a 10% cell suspension was added to one volume of 2% OsO4 or 5% gluteraldehyde in 0.067 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.3. Carbon replicas were obtained by a technique similar to that employed by Glaeser et al. Figure 1 shows an electron micrograph of a carbon replica made from a chicken erythrocyte, and Figure 2 shows an enlarged portion of the same cell.

The bullet-shaped viruses are currently classified together on the basis of similarities in virion morphology and physical properties. Biologically and ecologically the member viruses are extremely diverse. In searching for further bases for making comparisons of these agents, the nature of host cell infection, both in vivo and in cultured cells, has been explored by thin-section electron microscopy.
