Formation of twins in Or-BYCO crystals was studied by transforming them to T-phase by electron beam irradiation in the microscope. It is known that during the transformation the crystals developed twinning (STW), Ortho-II phase (1×2 superstructure), tweed structure. These structures occur in that order by the irradiation and the structural changes are caused by oxygen deficiency and oxygen atoms ordering. This work is aimed at elucidation of oxygen atom ordering by examining the structural evolution in terms of morphologies of the twins.Atypical evolution of an Or-BYCO crystal is shown in a series of micrographs in Figs. 1 to 5. As-grown twin (FTW) boundaries have a characteristic lens shape extending in the < 110> direction and terminate at a twin boundary in horizontal direction (Fig.1). These boundaries don't accompany strain contrast which is developed in the crystal after a brief irradiation (Fig.2). The strain contrasts, which are differentiated easily from the thickness contrast, appear parallel to the boundaries and change slowly across the boundaries.

Abstract The influence of electron beam on the nitrile rubber vulcanizates at varying levels of sulfur is reported. A higher crosslinking density, reduced elongation at break, increased modulus and tensile strength have been observed for the irradiated rubbers, as compared to the control rubber vulcanizates. The vulcanizate containing higher amount of sulfur, tends to form more crosslinkages on impinging with electron beam. This behavior is explained by the formation of monosulphidic linkages and is ascertained with the help of IR analysis (ATR mode), solid-state NMR analysis and chemical probe treatments of the irradiated vulcanizates. The implausible nature of these mixed crosslinking systems with electron beam as an additional crosslinker is explained with a kinetic model using steady state principle. A mechanistic path is suggested for explaining the structural changes on irradiation of these vulcanizates, which is supported by this model.
