SAMPLE TEMPERATURE DURING CORROSION REMOVAL BY LOW PRESSURE LOW-TEMPERATURE HYDROGEN RF PLASMA

Abstract. The plasma chemical reduction of corrosion layers from archaeological metallic objects is developing since the late 70 th . Contemporary, it is used in some museums, but the optimal treatment conditions are not fully known yet. Treated object temperature is one of the most critical points because metallographic changes can be initiated by elevated temperatures and thus the unique historical information can be lost. Temperature increases due to the direct inductive heating in the discharge as well as by the interaction of the surface with plasma active particles. In the case of samples prepared in acidic corrosion environment, the maximal temperature of the samples with the incrustation was lower than of samples without incrustation treated under the same conditions because the incrustation layers decrease the direct interaction of plasma active particles with the corrosion layers. In contrary, in the case of brass samples prepared in the ammonia atmosphere, the incrustation had an opposite effect due to intense heating of the sample during the reaction with oxygen presented in the outer corrosion layers. The maximal sample temperature was directly proportional to the linear size (or the third root of weight) of the treated sample

EU trade in the time of financial crisis

The paper is focused on the European Union (EU) trade and trade policy in the time of global financial and economic crisis. The analysis of the EU exports and imports points out that the financial crisis has had a negative impact on the intra as well as on the extra-EU trade in the period 2007-2009, but differences among the EU member states have existed. Although the EU tries to support trade development in the world and remove barriers to trade, some protectionist tendencies were recorded in the time of the economic crisis. The last part of the paper gives emphasis to the EU trade policy and some trade measures which have been taken in the EU and its member states to support trade development or vice versa, to protect domestic industries. The results of the analysis show that, although some protectionist tendencies have been recorded both in extra and intra-EU trade, trade relations which are provided among member states are of significant importance all the time

Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Poly(dimethylsiloxane) Properties

Models of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) oligomers differing in topology are defined and structure and mechanical properties of these analysed by three different theoretical approaches: the Bicerano graph method, atomistic molecular dynamics simulations and mesoscale dissipative particle dynamics. The calculations are performed within the simulation software environment Materials Studio (Accelrys Software Inc.). The obtained values of the Young and bulk modulus are juxtaposed to experimental data available for real PDMS materials and quality of the agreement discussed in relation to the theory level and simulation method applied
