Prom this expression we can see that the friction coefficient depends only on the detuning of the laser field. Obviously, the friction coefficient imder conditions of polarization cooling, l3 = %k A/, can be considerably higher than the maximum friction coefficient in the Doppler-cooling regime, which is approximately...

Above the solution treatment temperature (ca 1250°C), the alloy is single phase with a bcc crystal stmcture. During cooling to ca 750—850°C, the sohd solution decomposes spinodally into two other bcc phases a and lattice parameter composition. The matrix a-phase is rich in Ni and Al and weakly magnetic as compared with which is rich in Fe and Co. The a -phase tends to be rod-like in the (100) dkection and ca 10 nm in diameter and ca 100 nm long. As the temperature is decreased, segregation of the elements becomes mote pronounced and the difference between the saturation polarizations of the two phases increases. 

Internal surfactant antistats ate physically mixed with the plastic resin prior to processing. When the resin is melted, the antistat distributes evenly in the polymer matrix. The antistat usually has some degree of solubiUty in the molten polymer. However, when the polymer is processed (extmded, molded, etc) into its final form and allowed to cool, the antistat migrates to the surface of the finished article due to its limited solubiUty in the solidified resin. The molecule of a surface-active agent is composed of a polar hydrophilic portion and a nonpolar hydrophobic portion. The hydrophilic portion of the surfactant at the surface attracts moisture from the atmosphere it is the moisture that has the static dissipative effect. 

Alumina is the most frequently employed adsorbant. Its activity (i.e., the extent to which it adsorbs polar compounds) is largely a function of the amount of water present. Alumina of Activity I is prepared by heating the material in an oven to 200-230° and allowing it to cool in a desiccator. Addition of water to the extent of 3%, 6%, 10%, or 15% to the dry material gives alumina of Activity II, III, IV, and V, respectively. 

The performance of soluble oils is made possible not only by their high specific heat and thermal conductivity but by their low viscosity, which permits good penetration into the very fine clearances around the cutting zone. Consequently, these fluids are used mainly where cooling is the primary requirement. Lubricating properties can be improved by polar additives, which are agents that enhance the oiliness or anti-friction characteristics. Further improvements can be effected by EP (extreme-pressure) additives, which are usually compounds of sulfur or chlorine. 

Crystalline non-polar polymers and amorphous solvents Most polymers of regular structure will crystallise if cooled below a certain temperature, i.e. the melting point T. This is in accordance with the thermodynamic law that a process will only occur if there is a decrease in Gibbs free energy (-AF) in going from one state to another. Such a decrease occurs on crystallisation as the molecules pack regularly. 

Amorphous non-polar polymers and crystalline solvents This situation is identical to the previous one and occurs, for example, when paraffin wax is mbced into rubber above its melting point. On cooling the paraffin wax tends to crystallise, some of it on the surface of the rubber. Such a bloom is one way of protecting a diene rubber from ozone attack.
