The theory of gelation is tested by the recent experiments in poly(urethane) network. The result supports strongly the physical soundness of the theory.

The formation of a distribution of cluster sizes is a common feature in a wide variety of situations. Examples include astrophysics, atmospheric physics and polymer science, [2, 3, 8]. In this paper we discuss some mathematical aspects of the Smoluchowski coagulation equation which is a model for the dynamics of cluster growth. This model involves a coupled infinite system of ordinary different...

We report on the synthesis, morphology, chemically and structurally of TiO2-NiO-SiO2 nanostructure. The TiO2-NiO-SiO2 nanostructure was synthesized by a method based on the sol-gel method, by the simultaneous gelation of all cations. The coatings were deposited on dried soda-lime glass slides by spin coating. Composite powders and coating on glass hav...

background: addition of disinfectant to irreversible hydrocolloid impression materials can eliminate the disinfection step to avoid dimensional changes associated with it. the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of various disinfectant mixing liquids on the properties of commercially available irreversible hydrocolloid impression materials. materials and methods: four commercial...

Polymer architecture allows control of thermoreversible gelation in branched copolymer-stabilised emulsions.

-The behavior near the gelation threshold of trifunctional randomly branched polycyanurates is studied by static and dynamic light scattering. By static measurements the
