✦ Synopsis

A small perturbation analysis is carried out to determine the stability of a fluid containing two layers of dBusing solutes in a common solvent and acted upon by a uniform gravitational field. It is found that instability can arise even though the unperturbed diffusion does not lead to the formation of a density inversion within the fluid.

A well-known model of one-dimensional Case II diffusion is reformulated in two dimensions. This 2-D model is used to study the stability of 1-D planar Case II diffusion to small spatial perturbations. An asymptotic solution based on the assumption of small perturbations and a small driving force is

Microscopic observations of cross sections of laminates of unsaturated polyesters revealed a birefringent zone (interphase) at the interface. Several observations associated with this interphase were made that predicted either beneficial or detrimental effects of the presence of the interphase in th
