Three polypropylene samples (1-3) were synthesized with a 4th generation Ziegler-Natta catalyst in the presence of cyclohexyldimethoxymethylsilane (donor c), dicyclopenthyldimethoxysilane (donor d) and diisopropyldimethoxysilane (donor p), respectively, as external electron donors. The physical properties of the synthesized polypropylenes were determined. For samples 1 to 3, Successive self-nuc...

The super-Brownian motion X % in a super-Brownian medium % constructed in DF96a] is known to be persistent (no loss of expected mass in the longtime behaviour) in dimensions one ((DF96a]) and three ((DF96b]). Here we ll the gap in showing that persistence holds also in the critical dimension two. The key to this result is that in any dimension (d 3); given the catalyst, the variance of the proc...

Models for the likely active catalysts in homogeneous Ziegler-Natta systems have been studied using ab initio quantum chemical methods. We investigated the geometries of the isoelectronic model complexes, X2M-R where X = C1 or Cp = (q5-CsHs); where M = Sc and Ti+ (and also Ti); and where R = H, CH3, or SiH3. The general trend is that the M = Sc compounds strongly prefer a planar configuration, ...

The reliable determination of arsine (AsH3) and phosphine (PH3) in hydrogen (H2), nitrogen (N2) liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is great importance because its drastic effects on the efficiency catalysts, as well strict regulations associated with health, safety environmental issues. It challenging for an analyst to determine parts per billion AsH3 PH3 H2, N2, LPG at low high pressures without co...

This paper argues that innovation can be best understood as an information process which is then concretized as a product that meets demand. Two very different firms, Canon Inc. and Apple Computer Inc., are used as case study illustrations. Innovation does not proceed through logical deduction, but rather is furthered by the use of metaphors and analogies. The bureaucratic and staid structures ...

The observation of Manchot? that sodium pentacyano-ammineferroate2 I absorbs oxygen has led Baudisch and his coworkers3 to study the catalytic action of this salt, as well as of its water analogue II, in the oxidation of pyrimidines and purines. The present authors have previously reported in this journal4 on the nature of the oxidation products obtained. In the present paper the problem is con...

primary mgcl2.3.3etoh adduct (pct1) was prepared by melt quenching method and then submitted into a programmed thermal dealcoholation project using a fluidized bed reactor. during thermal dealcoholation program, different mgcl2.netoh support samples with n= 3.0, 2.7, 2.4, and 2.1 were selected and named as pct2 to pct5, respectively. structural analysis of the support samples showed a significa...
