Potpourri of Los Alamos National Laboratory foam efforts

Description: This presentation provides an update on microcellular foam research efforts at Los Alamos. Topics include the influence of pressure on the phase separation of poly(4-methyl-1-pentene) from organic solution, a new concept of phase diagrams, physical testing of foams, and recent emulsion polymerization results.

Physical characteristics of diblock polyacetylene copolymers: processability-conductivity correlation

Description: The physical properties of polyacetylene diblock copolymers containing polystyrene (PS) or polyisoprene (PI) blocks of various compositions are studied using electron spin resonance, resonance Raman scattering, and room temperature conductivity measurements. This study is performed to investigate the processability-conductivity correlation in these materials and their viability as conducting systems.

Calculated photon KERMA factors based on the LLNL EGDL (Evaluated Gamma-Ray Data Library) data file

Description: Photon (Gamma-Ray) KERMA factors calculated from the LLNL EGDL (Evaluated Gamma-Ray Data Library) file are tabulated for the elements from Z=1 to Z=30 and for 15 composite materials. The KERMA factors are presented for 191 energy groups over the incident photon energy range from 100 eV to 100 MeV. 3 refs.

Preparation and properties of polyvinyl alcohol microspheres

Description: Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) microspheres, having a size range of approx.150- to 250-..mu..m diameter with 1- to 5-..mu..m wall thickness, have been fabricated using a solution droplet technique. The spheres were developed for possible use on the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) Program. PVA, a polymer chosen based on earlier survey work carried out at KMS Fusion, Inc., has good strength, low hydrogen permeability, is optically transparent, and water so… more
