    Notes: Abstract Cholesteric liquid crystals possess a helical structure and exhibit two stable states at zero field: the planar texture and the focal conic texture. In the planar texture, they reflect circularly polarized light, whereas in the focal conic texture, they scatter light in forward directions. They can be switched from the planar texture to the focal conic texture by a low-voltage pulse and switched from the focal conic texture to the planar texture by a high-voltage pulse. The wavelength of the reflected light is easily adjusted by varying the pitch of cholesteric liquid crystals. They can be used to make reflective displays that do not need a back light and have a good readability under room-light conditions. We first review the optical properties of bistable cholesteric reflective displays and discuss the techniques used to achieve high contrast and large viewing angle. We then discuss the transitions among the cholesteric textures and the drive schemes used to address bistable cholesteric reflective displays.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of the addition of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber (UHMWPE) on the mechanical properties of standard surgical Simplex-P radiopaque bone cement have been investigated. It was found that the tensile strength and tensile modulus were apparently not improved by the incorporation of UHMWPE in the acrylic bone cement. The results of bending strength and bending modulus indicated that a reinforcing effect is obtained at UHMWPE contents as low as 1 wt%, and then levelled off with increasing UHMWPE contents. When the UHMWPE contents as low as 2 wt%, the values of compressive strength and modulus seemed approximate the same; whereas the values of compressive strength and modulus decreased with increasing UHMWPE contents. From the results of dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), the values of dynamic storage modulus of bone cement increased at UHMWPE fiber as low as 2 wt%, but beyond that UHMWPE content the value of the dynamic storage modulus decreased with increasing UHMWPE contents. The same results were also found for the dynamic loss modulus. When methyl methacrylate was grafted onto UHMWPE by plasma and UV irradiation treatment, it was found that by adding the treated UHMWPE fiber in acrylic bone cement had a significant reinforcing effect on the mechanical properties of bone cement.

    Notes: Activated carbon hollow fiber (ACHF) was prepared from polyacrylonitrile (PAN) hollow fiber through carbonization in nitrogen and activation with carbon dioxide. The effect of the activation time on the pore size distribution and the surface structure of the resulted ACHF was investigated. The results show that increasing the activation time at 800°C can increase the number of pores and reduce the crystal size, the tensile strength, the modulus, and the elongation. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The catalytic oxidation of SO2 on polyacrylonitrile-based active hollow carbon fiber (AHCF) was investigated. A single-pass reacting system was developed to study this reaction. The sulfur dioxide contained in the gas stream was oxidized to sulfuric acid in the presence of oxygen and water. Four types of active hollow carbon fibers were prepared through various conditions in order to study the influence of the structure of AHCF on the characteristics of the catalytic oxidation. The fiber sample with more mesopores and micropores showed a higher degree of reaction, but the degree of reaction declined after a period of time, possibly due to the saturation of the active sites by the reaction products. The degree of reaction from the fiber sample with fewer mesopores and micropores did not show the overshoot and reached a steady state after a period of time. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Three types of precursors of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) hollow fibers were used to produce activated carbon hollow fibers (ACHF). These precursors are different in the structure and composition. Characterization were performed including tensile strength, modulus, x-ray diffraction, pore size distribution, and surface area measurement for the resulting ACHF. The results show that the ACHF produced from the precursor with larger crystal size and dense structure has higher mechanical properties, whereas the ACHF from the precursor with smaller crystal size and porous structure has larger surface area and broader pore size distribution. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
