Abstract A spectroscopic method is described for the determination of concentration propagating species, [P * ], in polymerization tetrahydrofuran catalyzed by a mixture AlEt 3 −H 2 O (1:0.5) and epichlorohydrin. phenyl ether group was introduced at polymer chain end quantitative reaction species with excess sodium phenoxide. From amount groups remaining phenoxide, ] determined means ultraviolet spectroscopy. The value so found to be good agreement that calculated from molecular weight based...
A comparison between atezolizumab plus bevacizumab (ATEZO/BEVA) and lenvatinib (LEN) for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear.This study aimed to compare therapeutic effects safety ATEZO/BEVA LEN as first-line therapies HCC.This was a retrospective analysis 810 patients with HCC who underwent (n = 186) or 624) systemic therapy March 2018 2022 at 14 facilities.

Abstract We examined the epidemiological trends, including distribution of sex, age, and disease etiology, in HCC incident cases, over 24 years. Data 20,547 patients (1996–2019) were analyzed this prospective study. divided study period into four 6-yearly quarters. etiology was categorized as hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, HBV + C (HCV) HCV both negative (non-BC). The cases per quarter 4311 (21.0%), 5505 (26.8%), 5776 (28.1%), 4955 (24.1%), sequentially. Overall, 14,020 (68.2%) male....
An aluminum wire-grid polarizer whose period is 0.39 microm has been fabricated on a quartz substrate by electron-beam direct-writing lithography and the lift-off method. By using s -polarization resonance effect optimizing structural parameters, characteristics such as loss of less than 20% an extinction ratio larger 1000 have experimentally obtained at 0.8- -wavelength band. Theoretical analysis performed found to be consistent with experimental results.
Blue light was generated at room temperature by quasiphase matched second harmonic generation in planar and channel lithium tantalate (LiTaO3) annealed proton exchange waveguides using the d33 nonlinear coefficient. Alternating ferro-electric domains for third order matching were created poling substrates with a periodic electric field.

Abstract Kinetic studies have been carried out on the polymerization of tetrahydrofuran with ternary catalyst system Al(C 2 H 5 ) 3 O‐epichlorohydrin at 0°C. It has found that this is a stepwise addition polymerization, i.e. , propagating species formed mostly in an induction period and during subsequent second stage almost constant concentration continues to grow without being interrupted by chain transfer or termination. Based upon above mechanism, species, [P * ], was determined from...

Inhomogeneities in waveguide dimensions are a serious problem for guided-wave frequency conversion devices. We discuss designs that make the phase matching ‘‘noncritical’’ with respect to small changes dimensions. Application of noncritical results larger fabrication tolerances, facilitating practical realization nonlinear devices long interaction lengths. experimentally demonstrate existence thickness lithium niobate waveguide, and analyze dimensional tolerances second-harmonic generation...

Abstract Kinetic studies are reported on the polymerization of tetrahy drofuran by trialkyloxonium salts. Triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate (Et3 OBF4) and -tetrachloroaluminate (Et3OAlC14) were employed as initiator. At various times system was treated with excess sodium phenoxide. The propagating species polymer remaining triethyloxonium initiator converted quantitatively into corresponding phenyl ethers.

To realize practical orbital servicing missions in the 21/sup st/ century, we have developed a new system concept for an vehicle named Hyper-OSV (Orbital Servicing Vehicle), which has higher speed manipulation capability and larger operation area than OSVs that were proposed 1990's. The main feature of (HOSV) is separation function long-term in-orbit surviving functions such as solar panel large communication antenna. This releases HOSV from attitude restrictions flexible dynamics provides...
Abstract The initiation mechanism of the tetrahydrofuran polymerization catalyzed by AlEt 3 –H 2 O(2:1)‐epichlorohydrin system was studied. products formed treatment at an early stage with sodium methoxide examined v.p.c. analysis. It has been shown that cationic ring‐cleavage epichlorohydrin i.e. , formation a cyclic trialkyloxonium ion, constitutes reaction. This finding is consistent assumption for initiating behavior reactive oxacyclic compounds according to proposal “promoter”.
