Polymers Polymer chemistry is devoted to the study of large molecules- macromolecules. Many liquid and glassy polymers, and to some extent inorganic glasses as well, show this phenomenon of viscoelasticity, that is, they deform in a plastic manner under stress on slow timescales, but are elastic under more rapid stress. Polymer chains are typically linear, branched, or crosslinked, although other less common topologies are known. courses.chem.psu.edu /chem13/materials/polymers.html   (2354 words)

Amazon.com: Frontier Orbitals and Organic Chemical Reactions: Books: Ian Fleming Assuming the reader is familiar with the concept of molecular orbital as a linear combination of atomic orbitals the book is presented in a simple style, without mathematics making it accessible to readers of all levels. This book is both a simplified account of frontier orbital theory and a review of its applications in organic chemistry; it provides a basic introduction to the subject and a wealth of illustrative examples. The theory is presented very simply, without mathematics, stressing physical principles and assuming only that the reader is familiar with the concept of a molecular orbital as a linear combination of atomic orbitals. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0471018198?v=glance   (913 words)

Polarization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Polarization is principally of importance in chemistry due to the circular dichroism and "optical rotation" (circular birefringence) exhibited by optically active (chiral) molecules. The property of (linear) birefringence is widespread in crystalline minerals, and indeed was pivotal in the initial discovery of polarization. Related to the sky compass is the "polar clock", invented by Charles Wheatstone in the late 19th century. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Polarization   (3951 words)

Analytical chemistry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Analytical chemistry research is largely driven by performance (sensitivity, selectivity, robustness, linear range, accuracy, precission, and speed), and cost (purchase, operation, training, time, and space). Analytical chemistry is the analysis of material samples to gain an understanding of their chemical composition and structure. Mass spectrometry is used to determine the molecular mass, the elemental composition, structure and sometimes amount of chemical species in a sample by ionizing the analyte molecules and observing their behavior in electric and magnetic fields. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Chemistry,_analytical   (771 words)

Linear Accelerator text When the construction of the Linear Accelerator was announced in the fall of 1961, it was portrayed as the next logical step on the University’s research path. The building of the Linear Accelerator (Linac) was not a random event but rather the result of a series of developments on campus. With this unit research was undertaken in the areas of radiological physics, radiation chemistry and the effects of high energy radiation on plants and animals. lib74123.usask.ca /gallery/uofs_buildings/text_linac.htm   (771 words)

Chemistry - Linear particle accelerator Such accelerators are severely limited in accelerating power since at high voltage energy will be lost due to corona discharge, with electrical energy dissapated into the surrounding atmosphere. It may be used to produce X-rays, by accelerating electrons into a target window, or for the production of high energy particles so that the results of particle collisions may be studied, usually with a bubble chamber or other device. As the particle bunch passes through the tube it is unaffected (the tube acts as a Faraday cage), while the frequency of the driving signal and the spacing of the gaps between electrodes is designed so that the maximum voltage differential appears as the particle crosses the gap. www.chemistrydaily.com /chemistry/Linear_accelerator   (1043 words)

Beer's Law - Theoretical Principles The linear relationship between concentration and absorbance is both simple and straightforward, which is why we prefer to express the Beer-Lambert law using absorbance as a measure of the absorption rather than %T. Question : What is the significance of the molar absorbtivity, Absorption takes place and the beam of radiation leaving the sample has radiant power P. If all the light is absorbed, then percent transmittance is zero, and absorption is infinite. www.shu.ac.uk /schools/sci/chem/tutorials/molspec/beers1.htm   (328 words)

Near infrared spectra of pellets and thin films of high-density, low-density and linear low-density polyethylenes and prediction of their physical properties by multivariate data analysis The aim of the present study is to investigate in detail the near infrared (NIR) spectra of the three types of polyethylene, linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), and to develop calibration models that predict their physical properties such as density, crystallinity and melting point.

Newton's Laws in Action Again, the arrow indicates that linear momentum (which we shall just refer to as the momentum from now on) needs to be specified by a direction AND a magnitude or amount. However, since energy can appear in many different forms, some of which are difficult to observe, it took many years and experiments in many branches of physics and chemistry to prove that energy (as distinguished from kinetic energy, the energy associated with motion) is also conserved in all collisions. In a collision between two objects 1 and 2, object 1 ``acts upon'' object 2 to change its momentum and object 2, by Newton's Third Law, ``acts upon'' object 1 to change its momentum in a way which is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the action of 1 on 2. dept.physics.upenn.edu /courses/gladney/mathphys/subsection3_1_3.html   (1837 words)

Chemistry - Dubnium The American team synthesized the element by bombarding a target californium-249 with a beam of 84 MeV nitrogen nuclei in the Heavy Ion Linear Accelerator (a particle accelerator), which produced element 105-260 with a half-life of 1.6 seconds. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) thus adopted unnilpentium (symbol Unp) as a temporary name for this element. Atoms of element 105 were detected conclusively on March 5, 1970 but there is evidence that this element had already been formed at Berkeley a year earlier using the same method. www.chemistrydaily.com /chemistry/Unnilpentium   (324 words)

Home Page of Density Functional Theory Formulation along this line provides the possibility of the linear scaling algorithm currently in fashion, whose computational complexity goes like O(NlogN), essentially linear in N when N is very large. Moving from E[psi] to E[n] in computational chemistry significantly reduces the computational effort needed to understand electronic properties of atoms, molecules, and solids. The first Hohenberg-Kohn theorem asserts that the density of any system determines all ground-state properties of the system, that is, E=E[n0], where n0 is the ground-state density of the system. www.unc.edu /~shubin/dft.html   (308 words)

Partial Least Squares (PLS) Partial least squares regression has been used in various disciplines such as chemistry, economics, medicine, psychology, and pharmaceutical science where predictive linear modeling, especially with a large number of predictors, is necessary. Partial least squares regression is an extension of the multiple linear regression model (see, e.g., Multiple Regression or General Stepwise Regression). In short, partial least squares regression is probably the least restrictive of the various multivariate extensions of the multiple linear regression model. www.statsoft.com /textbook/stpls.html   (308 words)

Symmetry-breaking and Molecular Evolution/1 Although quanta obey linear wave amplitude superposition, chemistry inherits non-linearity in the form of the attractive and repulsive charge interactions between orbital systems. The the underlying linearity of wave superposition is illustrated in the formation of linear combinations of s and p wave functions to form the four sp3 hybrid orbitals. Such non-linear interaction, combined with Pauli exclusion, is responsible for the diversity of chemical interaction from the covalent bond to the secondary and tertiary effects manifest in the complex structures of proteins and nucleic acids. www.dhushara.com /book/biocos/symevol.htm   (5619 words)
