We determined the structural and the magnetic phase diagram for the disordered, ternary system FeNiPt in the Fe-rich corner in the vicinity of the y(fcc)-a(bcc) transition region along the quasi binary cross section Fe,-,(Pt50Ni50), with x=0.28, 0.3, 0.31, 0.32 and 0.35. All alloys are characterized by X-ray investigations, magnetization measurements M(T,H) (4.2K<T<850K), as well as resistivity...

Phase separation in ternary model membranes is known to occur over a range of temperatures and compositions and can be induced by increasing hydrostatic pressure. We have used small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) to study phase separation along pre-determined tie lines in dioleoylphosphatidylcholine (DOPC), dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and cholesterol (CHOL) mixtures. We can unequivocal...

Phospholipids having a polyunsaturated acyl chain are abundant in biological membranes, but their behavior in lipid mixtures is difficult to study. Here we elucidate the nature of such mixtures with this report of the first ternary phase diagram containing the polyunsaturated lipid SDPC in mixtures of BSM/SDPC/Chol (brain sphingomyelin/1-stearoyl-2-docosahexaenoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine/ch...

In the present work glipizide based microemulsion was developed and its usefulness as topical drug carrier system for the non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) was investigated. Microemulsion was prepared by water titration method using oleic acid as oil phase, tween-80 as surfactant and propylene glycol as co-surfactant. Menthol as a permeation enhancer was added to a final drug-load...

Phase equilibria in the Cu2Se–SnSe–Sb2Se3 quasi-ternary system has been studied by differential thermal analysis and powder X-ray diffraction. Some polythermal sections, isothermal sections at 300 K of phase diagram projection liquidus surface are constructed. The regions primary crystallization phases, nature temperatures non- monovariant have determined. SnSe–CuSbSe2 quasi-binary section refi...

The reactions in the Si/TaC/Cu and Si/Ta2N/Cu metallisation systems were investigated by x-ray diffraction, Rutherford backscattering, scanning electron microscope and the transmission electron microscopy. The results were then combined with the assessed ternary SiTa-C, Ta-C-Cu, Si-Ta-N and Ta-N-Cu phase diagrams. It was found that both barriers ultimately failed due to diffusion of Cu through ...
