The combined energy input from the reactor and hot leg piping would need to be balanced primarily by heat rejection to space, with the resulting average temperature depending primarily upon the thermal optical properties of the space facing surfaces of the shield. Due to its elevated temperature, it is likely that the shield would need to be thermally isolated from the electronics and plant structure elements aft of the shield. 

Polarization which can be induced in nonconducting materials by means of an externally appHed electric field is one of the most important parameters in the theory of insulators, which are called dielectrics when their polarizabiUty is under consideration (1). Experimental investigations have shown that these materials can be divided into linear and nonlinear dielectrics in accordance with their behavior in a realizable range of the electric field. The electric polarization PI of linear dielectrics depends linearly on the electric field E, whereas that of nonlinear dielectrics is a nonlinear function of the electric field (2). The polarization values which can be measured in linear (normal) dielectrics upon appHcation of experimentally attainable electric fields are usually small. However, a certain group of nonlinear dielectrics exhibit polarization values which are several orders of magnitude larger than those observed in normal dielectrics (3). Consequentiy, a number of useful physical properties related to the polarization of the materials, such as elastic, thermal, optical, electromechanical, etc, are observed in these groups of nonlinear dielectrics (4). 

The physical, thermal, and electronic properties of germanium metal are shown in Table 1. Optical properties are given in Table 2. 

Optics. Good optical properties and low thermal resistance make poly(methyl methacrylate) polymers well suited for use as plastic optical fibers. The manufacturing methods and optical properties of the fibers have been reviewed (124) (see Fiber optics). Methods for the preparation of Fresnel lenses and a Fresnel lens film have been reported (125,126). Compositions and methods for the industrial production of cast plastic eyeglass lenses are available (127). 

Relatively few processible polyimides, particularly at a reasonable cost and iu rehable supply, are available commercially. Users of polyimides may have to produce iutractable polyimides by themselves in situ according to methods discussed earlier, or synthesize polyimides of unique compositions iu order to meet property requirements such as thermal and thermoxidative stabilities, mechanical and electrical properties, physical properties such as glass-transition temperature, crystalline melting temperature, density, solubility, optical properties, etc. It is, therefore, essential to thoroughly understand the stmcture—property relationships of polyimide systems, and excellent review articles are available (1—5,92). 

The hydrated alumina minerals usually occur in ooUtic stmctures (small spherical to eUipsoidal bodies the size of BB shot, about 2 mm in diameter) and also in larger and smaller stmctures. They impart harshness and resist fusion or fuse with difficulty in sodium carbonate, and may be suspected if the raw clay analyzes at more than 40% AI2O2. Optical properties are radically different from those of common clay minerals, and x-ray diffraction patterns and differential thermal analysis curves are distinctive. 

Thermal Fixation Properties of Disperse Dyes on Polyester—Gotton. This method assesses the fixation properties of disperse dyes as a function of the time, temperature, dyestuff concentration, or presence and amount of auxiUary agents. The polyester—cotton fabric is padded and dried, the cotton dissolved in sulfuric acid and washed out of the blend, and the amount of dye on the polyester component assessed by either reflectance or measuring the optical density of a solution of dye obtained by extracting the dye with boiling chloroben2ene solvent. 

In Table 1 some of the properties of raw synthetic hj -l,4-polyisoprene (Goodyear s Natsyn) and natural mbber (Hevea) are presented along with references that contain additional thermal, optical, electrical, and mechanical property data. Some properties of synthetic /n j -l,4-polyisoprene (Kuraray TP-301) are also given. Molecular weights and mol wt distribution are determined by gel-permeation chromatography (gpc) (11). 

Fillers may be broadly defined as solid particulates or fibrous materials, substantially inert chemically, incorporated in polymer compositions to modify the properties and/or to reduce cost. Cost reduction is not the primary reason to incorporate fillers in adhesives but they are used to impart specific properties such as flow, improved adhesion, mechanical, thermal, electrical and optical properties, chemical and weather resistance, and rheological behaviour. 

There are many organic compounds with useful electronic and/or optical properties and with sufficiently high volatility to be evaporable at a temperature well below that at which decomposition occurs. Since thermal evaporation lends itself to facile multilayering, organic compounds may be selected for use in one or more function electron injection, electron transport, hole injection, hole transport, andI or emission. A complete list of materials that have been used in OLEDs is too vast to be included here. Rather, we list those that have been most extensively studied. 

Tables 7-5 to 7-7 show that there are different orders of magnitude between plastics and metals. Depending on the application, plastics may be formulated and processed to exhibit a single property or a designed combination of electrical, mechanical, chemical, thermal, optical, aging properties, and others. The chemical structure of polymers and the various additives they incorporate provide compounds to meet many different performance requirements.

The first type of polycarbosilane synthesized by using ADMET methodology was a poly[carbo(dimethyl)silane].14c Linear poly(carbosilanes) are an important class of silicon-containing polymers due to their thermal, electronic, and optical properties.41 They are also ceramic precursors to silicon carbide after pyrolysis. ADMET opens up a new route to synthesize poly(carbosilanes), one that avoids many of the limitations found in earlier synthetic methods.41...

Incorporation of flexible siloxane spacers into side chain or main chain liquid crystalline polymers have been shown to drastically reduce the transition temperatures 255,267,271,272,277) anc[ aiso increase the response time of the resultant systems to the applied thermal, optical or electrical fields 350-353>. In addition, siloxanes also provided elastomeric properties and improved the processibility (solution or melt) of the resulting liquid crystalline copolymers.

The crystal quality of the InGaN QWs becomes poor mainly due to the lattice-constant mismatch and the difference of the thermal expansion coefficient between InN and GaN with increasing the In composition [4,5]. Therefore, in order to improve the external quantum efficiency (i/ext) of the InGaN-based LEDs and LDs, it is important to elucidate and optimize the effects of the various growth conditions for the InGaN active layer on the structural and optical properties. Recently, we reported a fabrication of efficient blue LEDs with InGaN/GaN triangular shaped QWs and obtained a substantial improvement of electrical and optical properties of the devices [6,7]. 

When solids react, we would like to know at what temperature the solid state reaction takes place. If the solid decomposes to a different composition, or phase, we would like to have this knowledge so that we can predict and use that knowledge In preparation of desired materials. Sometimes, intermediate compounds form before the final phase. In this chapter, we will detail some of the measurements used to characterize the solid state and methods used to foUow solid state reactions. This will consist of various types of thermal analysis (TA), including differentlEd thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and measurements of optical properties.
