Mold powders in continuous casting of steel contain fluorine through mainly CaF2 and occasionally NaF and Na3AlF6. Fluorine develops dangerous gases such as SiF4 and HF at high temperatures. In this study, CaF2 is partly replaced by substances such as Na2CO3, ZnO and Fe2O3.Sulfur free Portland cement clinker containing gypsum was used as a new product base. These additions developed comparable ...

This paper discusses some examples showing that the crystalline cohomology of even very mildly singular projective varieties tends to be quite large. In particular, any singular projective variety with at worst ordinary double points has infinitely generated crystalline cohomology in at least two cohomological degrees. These calculations rely critically on comparisons between crystalline and de...

A crystalline protein compound has been isolated from a solution containing crystalline trypsin and crystalline soybean inhibitor. The protein consists of about equal weights of trypsin and of the inhibitor. Denaturation by heat or by alkali resolves the compound into its components.

Magnetic fields have been used to produce well aligned nematic liquid crystalline and colloidal crystalline samples of nearly monodisperse tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). Hydrodynamic instabilities induced by reorientation in a magnetic field have been studied in the well aligned nematic liquid crystalline samples.

a quantum chemical investigation was carried out to study the properties of intermolecular f•••f, br•••br and br•••o interactions in crystalline 1-bromo-2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-nitrobenzene (bfnb). this system was selected to mimic the halogen-halogen as well as halogen bonding interactions found within crystal structures as well as within biological systems. we found that fluorine atoms have weak ...
