TL;DR: In this paper, a mixture of multi-substituted and partly chain-extended cyclophosphazenes, with overall functionality close to the targeted values, were transformed into the cyanatophenyl derivative.
Abstract: Hydroxy phenyl-substituted cyclotriphosphazenes were synthesized by reacting hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene with sodium phenolate and monosodium bisphenolate. The derivatives, consisting of a mixture of multi-substituted and partly chain-extended cyclophosphazenes, with overall functionality close to the targeted values, were transformed into the cyanatophenyl derivative. Thermal curing of the latter gave phosphazene–triazine cyclomatrix network polymers with varying ratios of phosphazene and triazine rings in the matrix. Although they manifested diminished Tg, the cured polymers were more thermally stable and provided higher char residue in comparison to the polycyanurate derived from bisphenol-A dicyanate. The activation energies for thermal decomposition of the cyclomatrix networks increased with both phosphazene content and crosslink density, and showed a direct relationship with their thermal stability. The presence of phosphazene was conducive for enhancing the flame retardancy of the network. The flame retardancy improved with increase in crosslink density and char-yielding property of the polymer, which implied that the flame-retardant action was operative in the condensed phase.

TL;DR: In this article, columnar size-distribution functions of aerosols have been derived using ground-based multi-wavelength radiometer observations, and it has been found that the nature of the derived size distribution function is strongly dependent on season.
Abstract: Using aerosol optical depth as a function of wavelength obtained from ground-based multiwavelength radiometer observations, columnar size-distribution functions of aerosols have been derived. It has been found that the nature of the derived size-distribution function is strongly dependent on season. The derived size-distribution functions are discussed in term of seasonally dependent natural aerosol sources and sinks.

TL;DR: In this paper, an AlCrCuNiFeCo high entropy alloy was processed and its high temperature deformation behavior was examined as a function of temperature (700-1030 degrees C) and strain rate (10(-3)-10(-1) s(-1)), so as to identify the optimum thermo-mechanical processing (TMP) conditions for hot working of this alloy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the location of the collinear libration points is investigated numerically, by taking the oblateness of the primaries into consideration, for 19 systems of astronomical interest.
Abstract: In this paper location of the collinear libration points is investigated numerically, by taking the oblateness of the primaries into consideration, for 19 systems of astronomical interest. It is found that in some of the systems the shifts are significant. These equilibria are shown to be unstable in general, though the existence of conditional, infinitesimal (linearized) periodic orbits around them can be established, in the usual way. It is shown that the eccentricity and synodic period of these orbits are functions of oblateness too. Numerical study, in this connection, with the above systems, revealed that the orbits around the libration point, which is farthest from the primary whose oblateness effect is included, exhibit a different trend from those around the other two points.
