poly(vinyl acetate) is synthesized via solution polymerization, and then it is converted to poly(vinyl alcohol) by alkaline alcoholysis. the aim of the work study was to investigate statistically the  influence of reaction variables in vinyl acetate polymerization, the conversion of this monomer to polymer, degree of branching of acetyl group in poly(vinyl acetate), as well as the molecular wei...

Molecular mechanisms of electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of poly(3-decylthiophene) (P3DT) molecules onto vertically aligned cadmium selenide arrays have been studied using large-scale, nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (MD), in the absence and presence of static external electric fields. The field application and larger polymer charges accelerated EPD. Placement of multiple polymers at the same...

the poly(ethyleneimine)-functionalized silica has been developed successfully as an effective adsorbent for the adsorption removal of cu(ii) ions from electroplating wastewater. the influences of ph, contact time and initial concentration of cu(ii) ions on the adsorption capacity and the effect of adsorbent dosage on the removal efficiency of cu(ii) ions from electroplating wastewater were inve...

The lack of image brightness is a common problem in optical see-through head-mounted displays (OST-HMD) where a beamsplitter is required to combine views from HMD image source and the direct-view of a real world scene. This problem is further aggregated in a headmounted projective display (HMPD) due to the fact that light passes through the beamsplitter multiple times. In this paper, we present...
