Small Angle X-Ray Scattering of Neutron- and Electro-Irradiated Pd_<80>Si_<20> Amorphous Alloy

Small angle X-ray scatterig (SAXS) was measured for neutron- and electron-irradiated Pd_Si_ amorphous alloy. The experimental SAXS intensity curves are well approximated by the Guinier formula below h=0.04 A ^. The radii of gyration are almost same between electron-irradiated and aged sample, while neutron-irradiated sample shows a small radius of gyration

Surface-Active and Photochemical Properties of Sodium p-Dodecylbenzylsulfate in Aqueous Solution

An ultraviolet (UV)-degradative anionic surfactant, sodium p-dodecylbenzylsulfate, was prepared and its surface-active and photochemical properties in water were examined. The surface activities such as solubilizing, foaming, and dispersing powers were as good as those of synthetic detergents, linear alkylbenzenesulfonate and sodium dodecylsulfate. Upon UV irradiation, the surfactant was degraded to give p-dodecylbenzyl alcohol, a nonsurfactant.ArticleJOURNAL OF DISPERSION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY. 33(6):812-815 (2012)journal articl

Gamma-ray Compton Profiles for Fe-Ti and Fe-Ti-H Amorphous Alloys

Compton profile measurements using 59.54 γ-ray source have been performed for Fe-Ti and Fe-Ti-H amorphous alloys. It is found that the electronic structure of Fe-Ti amorphous alloy is blurred by the vitrification , compared with the crystalline one , and that hydrogen atoms in Fe-Ti amorphous alloy prefer to donate valence electrons to the conduction band of the host lattice
