Bipolar electric fatigue behaviour as a function of field strength in antiferroelectric (Pb,Ba,La)(Zr,Sn,Ti)O3 ceramics

The bipolar electric fatigue behaviour of antiferroelectric ceramics with the composition of Pb_0.88Ba_0.10La_0.02(Zr_0.55Sn_0.35Ti_0.10)O₃ was investigated under various cycling fields. The material exhibits a degradation in the maximum field induced strain, a diffuse AFE-FE phase transition and an enhancement in the diffusion character of the FE-AFE phase transition due to electric cycling. Those variations increase with cycle number, indicating a logarithmic fatigue up to 10⁸ cycles. There is no indication for the variations to be recovered, and the symmetry of the negative and positive parts of the strain hysteresis loops still remains. Higher cycling field results in a stronger deterioration of the maximum field induced strain and a larger extent of diffusion in AFE-FE and FE-AFE phase transitions. The normalized maximum strain shows nearly the same scale of degradation when the materials are cycled at various electric fields. After a heat treatment at 500°C for 1 h, the variations in the AFE-FE and FE-AFE phase transition due to cycling disappear, whereas the maximum strain resumes almost to its original value. Electrochemical variations are considered to contribute to the main fatigue mechanism for the material under investigation.

Tensile and flexural creep rupture tests on partially-damaged concrete specimens

Three series of novel tensile and flexural creep tests on partially-damaged concrete specimens were carried out in order to gain some insight into creep crack growth and failure of strain-softening materials. In the tests, each specimen was initially loaded to a given point in the descending branch and thus had a lower load-carrying capacity than that at the peak-point. Then, the specimen was unloaded and reloaded to sustain a load which was from 70% to 95% of its current load-carrying capacity. Experimental creep curves display a three-stage process, consisting of primary, secondary and tertiary stages, with a decreasing, constant and increasing creep rate, respectively. The secondary stage dominates the whole failure lifetime, whereas both the secondary and tertiary stages are important in terms of creep deformation. Failure life-time seems to be more sensitive to the change of load level in flexural tests rather than in tensile tests. The decrease in load-carrying capacity due to damage tends to result in a shorter failure lifetime and a lower critical load level for creep rupture. The descending branch of the static load-deflection or load-CMOD curve may be used as an envelope criterion for creep fracture.

Quenched BODIPY dye-labeled casein substrates for the assay of protease activity by direct fluorescence measurement

We have prepared casein conjugates of two BODIPY dyes for use as fluorogenic protease substrates in homogeneous assays. Both conjugates are labeled to such an extent that the dyes are efficiently quenched in the protein, yielding virtually nonfluorescent substrate molecules. These fluorogenic substrates release highly fluorescent BODIPY dye-labeled peptides upon protease digestion, with fluorescence increases proportional to enzyme activity. These quenched substrates are suitable for the continuous assay of enzymatic activity using standard fluorometers, filter fluorometers, or fluorescence microplate readers using either fluorescein excitation and emission wavelengths to measure BODIPY FL casein hydrolysis or Texas Red wavelengths to detect proteolysis of BODIPY TR-X casein. Most current techniques for detecting protease activity, such as the fluorescein thiocarbamoyl casein (FTC-casein) protease assay, require extensive manipulation, including separation steps, and are therefore labor intensive and error-prone. In comparison, we found the BODIPY dye-labeled casein protease assays to be simple and precise and to have greater sensitivity and a broader dynamic range of detection than the FTC-casein assay. We were able to sensitively detect the activities of a wide variety of enzymes with these new substrates, including serine, acid, sulfhydryl, and metalloproteases. We also found the assay suitable for quantitating protease inhibitor concentrations and for real-time analysis of proteolysis.
