    Notes: Design of molding tools and molding cycles for sheet molding compounds (SMC) is often expensive and time consuming. Computer simulation of the compression molding process is a desirable approach for reducing actual experimental runs. The focus of this work is to develop a computer model that can simulate the most important features of SMC compression molding, including material flow, heat transfer, and curing. A control volume/finite element approach was used to obtain the pressure and velocity fields and to compute the flow progression during compression mold filling. The energy equation and a kinetic model were solved simultaneously for the temperature and conversion profiles differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to experimentally measure the polymer zation kinetics. A rheometrics dynamic analyzer (RDA) was used to measure the rheological changes of the compound. A series of molding experiments was conducted to record the flow front location and material temperature. The results were compared to simulated flow front and temperature profiles.

    Notes: Abstract The potential importance of the six major emergent and floating-leaved macrophyte species in recycling of sediment phosphorus in the Loosdrecht lakes was studied. Representative plant samples were collected at the time of maximum biomass, and analysed for biomass and carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus contents. Species cover was determined by aerial photography. Total cover in the seven lakes studied ranged between 2 and 26 percent. For the four main species, biomass per unit area increased with lake trophic status. Consistent differences in C, N and P contents per unit biomass were not observed. Although cover values were small, significant amounts of C, N and P were contained in the macrophytes when compared with maximum sestonic content. Potential P loads from macrophyte decay were calculated. In Lake Loosdrecht, the P load represented 15 percent of current external P inputs. The potential importance of macrophyte decay to P recycling in the other lakes is greater. Decay of macrophyte species at the end of the growing season appears to affect autumnal nutrient and chlorophyll a levels in the water column of some lakes. The re-establishment of submerged species following lake restoration may increase the importance of this pathway in the lakes.

    Notes: Abstract Natural and artificial wetlands have the potential to reduce phosphorus (P) loads from dispersed agricultural runoff and from point sources in the Peel-Harvey catchment, Western Australia. Small experimental systems containing wetland plants and substrate have shown significant removal of P from inflowing water, the proportion of P removed being dependent on P concentration and flow rate of water through the system. The use of artificial wetlands to treat diffuse agricultural runoff is limited by the highly seasonal runoff typical of this Mediterranean climate, while use at point sources has so far been unsuccessful because compounds from the effluent clog the wetland ‘filters’. Treatment at point sources may well be feasible after further research. Natural wetlands in the catchment absorb P received in runoff from farmland and, in the absence of any outflow channels to the drainage system, confine this P within the boundaries of the wetland. Disturbance to wetlands may reduce their efficiency in absorbing nutrients and may release P stored in the vegetation and sediment to the water. The conservation of natural wetlands is recommended to maximise nutrient retention in the catchment.

    Notes: Polymer coatings are widely used to protect glass from indentation damage. A model for the strength degradation that occurs when a sharp indenter penetrates through the coating is developed by accounting for the indentation load shared by the coating and substrate. This model accounts for the additional load supported by the coating due to the pile-up of coating material underneath the indenter. The model predicts the strength degradation as a function of indentation load, coating and substrate hardnesses, and coating thickness. Comparison of the model to experimental data for a wide range of polymer coatings (two epoxies, epoxy acrylate, and urethane acrylate) on soda-lime glass substrates shows good agreement.

    Notes: The performance of a fluorocarbon elastomer processing additive in rutile-filled linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) compounds was evaluated by capillary rheometry, and blown film extrusion. Different compounding sequences were considered and their effects on the performance of the processing additive in the presence of various rutiles examined. Lower apparent melt viscosities and higher shear rates for the onset of melt fracture were observed when using certain surface treated rutiles. The nature of the surface coating applied to rutiles was found to have a great influence on the Theological properties of the filled compounds and on the dispersibility of the solids. The acid-base characteristics of rutiles were determined by inverse gas chromatography techniques, and inherent agglomeration indexes for the pigments were measured by an application of powder rheology principles. It was found that those rutiles with high agglomeration indexes or those with highly basic surfaces interfered the most with the processing additive. Mechanisms by which rutile dispersibility and acid-base character influence the effectiveness of the fluorocarbon elastomer processing additive are discussed.

    Notes: Reactive extrusion of functionalized polymers provides a convenient, commercially attractive route for the preparation of copolymers useful in compatibilization of polymer blends. In the current study, the grafting chemistry of maleic anhydride to poly(phenylene oxide) in the absence of a radical initiator is contrasted to that of efficient quinone-methide trapping agents such as maleimides. In the case of maleic anhydride, functionalization is shown to occur randomly along the polymer backbone whereas maleimides react to give both main chain and end-group derivatives. Use of this anhydride-functionalized polyfphenylene oxide and an end-group functionalized analog in blends with polyamide-6,6 affords high levels of graft and diblock copolymers respectively, sufficient for the preparation of highly ductile materials. The properties of these polyamide blends are found to depend on the amount of copolymer formed during extrusion with final copolymer levels being in turn returned to the degree of anhydride functionalization. The properties and morphology of blends containing graft or diblock copolymers derived from main-chain and end-group functionality respectively, are rationalized in terms of the relative effectiveness of different copolymer structures in blend compatibilization.

    Notes: A new counterflow jet reactor has been designed to study the purely homogeneous kinetics of endothermic reactions. The reactor consists of two vertical, coaxial, counterflowing, laminar jets and radial-flow exit region. It can be used to generate a reaction zone near the stagnation point and away from walls, thus eliminating the possibility of surface reactions. One jet is heated and contains only a suitable carrier gas such as hydrogen and nitrogen, while the other is unheated and contains the compound(s) under study diluted in the same carrier gas. A 2-D model of the process has been used to simulate the thermal decomposition of tertiary-butyl-arsine, a precursor for metal-organic chemical vapor deposition of GaAs films. Performance diagrams based on Reynolds and Demköhler numbers were constructed to identify optimal operating conditions and to demonstrate the feasibility of the technique. This reactor appears to be an attractive choice for studies of the purely homogeneous kinetics of endothermic reactions at pressures close to atmospheric.

    Notes: Lagrangian statistics are explored as a means of describing the transport of solids in a turbulently flowing liquid. The essential feature of the approach is to represent the concentration field as resulting from a distribution of sources of particles. It is argued that this provides a better framework to understand the physics than the Eulerian analysis currently being used. Fully developed concentration fields are calculated, using the assumptions of homogeneous turbulence and plug flow. It is found that the configuration of solids and the suspended load depend primarily on the ratio of the settling velocity to the friction velocity, which is a measure of the relative importance of turbulence and of settling in depositing particles. The analysis emphasizes the need for a better understanding of the mechanism and the rate of entrainment of particles into a turbulently flowing liquid.

    Notes: Experiments were conducted with air-water flow in a horizontal 0.095-m pipeline at atmospheric pressure to examine the mechanism by which slugs form in a stratified flow. A specially designed entrance box was used to avoid disturbances. In these experiments, at superficial gas velocities less than 3 m/s, the slugs are found to evolve from waves, with a length of about 0.085 m, that are generated by a Jeffreys mechanism. These waves grow in height and eventually double in wavelength by a nonlinear resonance mechanism. Depending on the height of the liquid, the growth can lead to a breaking wave or to a wave that fills the whole pipe cross section. At superficial gas velocities equal to or greater than 4 m/s capillary-gravity waves with a wide range of lengths are generated by a linear Kelvin-Helmholtz mechanism. These rapidly evolve into long waves outside the range of linear instability. If the liquid height is large enough, these waves can form slugs through a nonlinear Kelvin-Helmholtz instability that is aided by wave coalescence.
