The aim of this research is to clarify a quantitative evaluation in the structural relaxation processes focusing on the activation energy in Cu based amorphous alloys. The activation energy for structural relaxation process in a metal type amorphous CuHfTi ternary alloys, with cross sections of typically 0.03 mm x 2.0 mm, prepared by chill-block melt spinning has been investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) with a cyclically heating technique. Activation energies for structural relaxation with a spatial quantity in amorphous materials have been discussed by use of a relaxed ratio function that depends on annealing temperature and time. In the present work, the distributions for the Activation Energy Spectrum (AES) were observed almost 152 kJmol-1 (1.58 eV). Another result has been also established that the “reversible” AES model energy distribution though the cyclically structure relaxation occurs even in amorphous Cu60Hf20Ti20 alloy.

Abstract 1. In vulcanized rubbers containing blacks a multi-stage mechanism for stress relaxation was observed. It was discovered that the stress relaxation process consists of five fundamental processes: the first three relaxation processes, related to the slow stages of physical relaxation within the bulk of the rubber, have no connection with the fillers (“soft” domains); the fourth process has to do with the relaxation in the black-rubber domain; the fifth process involves the chemical relaxation of vulcanizates. 2. The fundamental mechanisms of the first 3 relaxation processes in the soft domains have the same activation energy values and the same segmental mechanism as the rearranged domains found in supermolecular weight structures, which are also present in unfilled vulcanizates. 3. In the investigated stress range of up to 200% elongation, the activation energy for the first 3 relaxation processes in the soft domains of filled vulcanizates is not a function of the deformation strain, whereas the activation energy of the fourth relaxation process in the black-rubber domains of filled rubbers is a function of the deformation and of the filler content. For these reasons, rubber loaded with carbon blacks, in contrast to unfilled rubbers, possess the typical nonlinearity of viscoelastic materials. 4. The activation energies of the relaxation processes in the black-rubber domains decrease in a linear fashion with the value for the initial tensile stress in filled vulcanizates, and decrease in like manner for vulcanizates containing different proportions of fillers. The kinetic units, determined from the activation energies of these processes, appeared to be segments of chains with activation energies of up to 40% more than the activation energies of the physical relaxation processes in the soft domains. The other kinetic units of the processes proved to be black particles, the dimensions of which were calculated from the values for the coefficients in the formula for relaxation time.

Structure Relaxation

The aim of this research is to clarify a quantitative evaluation in the structural relaxation processes focusing on the activation energy on the addition of B to Cu-based amorphous alloys. The activation energy for structural relaxation process in a metal type amorphous CuHfTi ternary and CuHfTiB quaternary alloys, with cross sections of typically 0.03 mm x 2.0 mm, prepared by chill-block melt spinning has been investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) with a cyclically heating technique. Activation energies for structural relaxation with a spatial quantity in amorphous materials have been discussed by use of a total relaxed ratio function that depends on annealing temperature and time. In the present work on CuHfTi ternary and CuHfTiB quaternary alloys, the distributions for the Activation Energy Spectrum (AES) by calculation with derivative-type relaxed ratio function were observed almost 160 kJmol-1, whereas in difference for shape only in the CuHfTi-B3% quaternary alloy. Another result has been also established that the ‘reversible’ AES model energy distribution though the cyclically structure relaxation occurs even in amorphous CuHfTiB alloy system.

The dielectric behaviour of glycine and glycylglycine in aqueous solution was examined for low concentrations and in the range of MHz, at 273 to 313 K. Only the solutions of glycylglycine exhibit dielectric absorption in the range 7.05 × 108 to 1.6 × 109Hz. The dielectric absorption was attributed to the relaxation of glycylglycine molecules rotating with one or two molecules of water. The charge separation of the dipolar ion in solution was found to be 5.7 Å, the molecular radius 3 Å and the activation energy for the relaxation process 4 kcal/mole.

Relaxation Studies

This article reports on the Dielectric Relaxation Studies of two Liquid Crystalline compounds - 7O.4 and 7O.6 - doped with dodecanethiol capped Silver Nanoparticles. The liquid crystal molecules are aligned homeotropically using CTAB. The low frequency relaxation process occurring above 1 MHz is fitted to Cole-Cole formula using the software Dielectric Spectra fit. The effect of the Silver Nanoparticles on the molecular dipole dynamics are discussed in terms of the fitted relaxation times, Cole-Cole distribution parameter and activation energy. The study indicate a local molecular rearrangement of the liquid crystal molecules without affecting the order of the bulk liquid crystal molecules but these local molecules surrounding the Silver Nanoparticles do not contribute to the relaxation process in the studied frequency range. The observed effect on activation energy suggests a change in interaction between the nanoparticles/liquid crystal molecules.

Abstract As a complement to earlier investigations, and in order to examine more closely the connection between the chemical kinetics and the changes with vulcanization time of the physical properties in the case of vulcanization reactions, we used thiuram vulcanizations as an example, and concerned ourselves with the dependence of stress values (moduli) at different degrees of elongation and different vulcanization temperatures. We found: 1. Stress values attain a limiting value, dependent on the degree of elongation, but independent of the vulcanization temperature at constant elongation. 2. The rise in stress values with the vulcanization time is characterized by an initial delay, which, however, is practically nonexistent at higher temperatures. 3. The kinetics of the increase in stress values with vulcanization time are both qualitatively and quantitatively in accord with the dependence of the reciprocal equilibrium swelling on the vulcanization time; both processes, after a retardation, go according to the first order law and at the same rate. 4. From the temperature dependence of the rate constants of reciprocal equilibrium swelling, as well as of the increase in stress, an activation energy of 22 kcal/mole can be calculated, in good agreement with the activation energy of dithiocarbamate formation in thiuram vulcanizations.

Reproducible Manner

Mixtures of methane and oxygen behave in a reproducible manner at temperatures of 440 to 520°C and initial pressures of 100 to 350 mm when reacting in Pyrex vessels freshly cleaned with hydrofluoric acid. The apparent order of the reaction ranged from 2∙3 to 2∙6 and the overall activation energy from 29 to 41 kcal/mole. Analyses of the products formed have been made, together with measurements of pressure change. Formaldehyde is formed from the commencement of the reaction including the induction period, but its concentra­tion reaches a maximum near the stage where the pressure rise is a maximum, and then falls off. Hydrogen peroxide is also formed, less rapidly in the earliest stage, but its rate of formation overtakes that of formaldehyde and it reaches an even higher concentration. No other peroxides were detected, nor was methanol found. Hydrogen was present in the gaseous products. These observations are not in full accord with some of the conclusions derived from earlier investigations.

Termination Process

The polymerization of vinyl chloride in the gas phase by X rays gives a solid polymer of 1140 average molecular weight. The G value of monomer disappearance varies from 100 to 400 and depends on pressure and temperature. From the measure of the rate of polymerization it was possible to deduce the activation energy of the chain propagation steps: 2.5 kcal/mole, and that of the hindered termination process: 7.4 kcal/mole. The negative temperature co-efficient of the polymerization is explained by the importance of this hindered termination process.

Butyl Peroxide

The pyrolysis of di-t-butyl peroxide has been reinvestigated and used as a source of methyl radicals to study the abstraction reaction between methyl radicals and formaldehyde. At low [HCHO]/[peroxide] ratios the system was simple enough for kinetic analysis, and a value of 6.6 kcal/mole was obtained for the activation energy. At higher [HCHO]/[peroxide] ratios the system became very complicated, possibly due to the increased importance of addition reactions.
