Measurements of the Cavitation Threshold of Liquids Under Dynamic Stressing by Pulses of Tension (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Williams, P. R. W., & Williams, R. (2002, February). Measurements of the Cavitation Threshold of Liquids Under Dynamic Stressing by Pulses of Tension. Presented at NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Liquids Under Negative Pressure

This paper addresses discrepancies between the results of different measurements of the effective tensile strength F(F c ) of liquids, in experiments in which a pulse of tension (or ’negative pressure’) is created by the reflection of a pressure puls...

Hydrophobically Modified Associative Polymer Solutions: Rheology and Microstructure in the Presence of Nonionic Surfactants (2002)
Journal Article
English, R. J., Laurer, J. H., Spontak, R. J., & Khan, S. A. (2002). Hydrophobically Modified Associative Polymer Solutions: Rheology and Microstructure in the Presence of Nonionic Surfactants. Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 41(25), 6425-6435. https://doi.org/10.1021/ie020409s

We report on the rheology and morphology of a hydrophobically modified alkali-swellable emulsion (HASE) polymer solubilized in alkaline media containing nonionic surfactants. The HASE polymer consists of complex alkylaryl hydrophobes composed of oli...

The pyridine-catalysed acylation of Pine Sapwood and phenolic model compounds with carboxylic acid anhydrides. Determination of activation energies and entropy of activation (2002)
Journal Article
Hill, C. A. S., & Papadopoulos, A. N. (2002). The pyridine-catalysed acylation of Pine Sapwood and phenolic model compounds with carboxylic acid anhydrides. Determination of activation energies and entropy of activation. Holzforschung, 56, 150-156. https://doi.org/10.1515/HF.2002.025

The reaction activation energies and entropies have been determined for the catalysed reaction of pyridine swollen pine sapwood samples and phenolic model compounds (in solution) with a homologous series of carboxylic acid anhydrides. With wood sampl... Read More about The pyridine-catalysed acylation of Pine Sapwood and phenolic model compounds with carboxylic acid anhydrides.
