The formation of microscopic cavities and microfibrils at stress hotspots in polymers is typically undesirable and is a contributor to material failure. This type of stress crazing is accelerated by solvents that are typically weak enough not to dissolve the

Chloropentane forms asymmetric ('A') and symmetric ('S') pairs on Si(100)-2×1, differing in the direction of curvature of one pentane tail. Surprisingly this renders the rate of thermal reaction of 'A' fifteen times greater than 'S' in chlorinating room-temperature silicon. Correspondingly

A novel extraction technique is proposed in which the Multiple Headspace Extraction (MHE) approach is used in conjunction with Headspace Sorptive Extraction (HSSE) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) detection. The extraction method was developed to determine volatile compounds in macroalgae.
