    This work reports the encapsulation of latex particles in Al(2)O(3)-polystyrene (PS) composite films. These films were prepared from PS particles in Al(2)O(3) dispersion at room temperature in various latex contents. Composite films were annealed at elevated temperatures in 10 min time interval above the glass transition temperature (T,,) of polystyrene. Transmitted photon intensities. I(tr) were monitored after each annealing step. AFM micrographs were also used to observe the physical changes of the composite films during annealing. It was observed that latex particles are encapsulated above a critical Al(2)O(3) content of 33 wt% which corresponds to the critical occupation probability of p(c) = 0.33 at which the film obey the site-percolation model with a critical exponent of 0.45. Below pc it was seen that complete latex film formation process took place, where transparency of the film was increased by annealing.

    Potassium determinations using sem, faas and xrf: some experimental notes
    (University of Aegean, 2011) Liritzis, Ioannis; Mavrikis, D; Zacharias, Nikolaos; Sakalis, Anastasios; Tsirliganis, Nestor C.; Polymeris, George S.
    The calibration of Scanning Electron Microscopy coupled with Energy Dispersive X-Rays Spectrometry (SEM-EDS) for elemental quantitative analysis is an important task for characterization, provenance and absolute dating purposes. In particular the potassium determination is an important contributor to dose rate assessments in luminescence and Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) dating. Here a SEM-EDX is calibrated on different archaeological and geoarchaeological materials against standard laboratory samples as well as measured by micro X-Rays Fluorescence (mu XRF) and flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS) techniques. A common linear relationship is obtained for most elements and certain rock types used and two clear linear regressions for two types of rocks; one for granite, diorite, microgranite and sediments and another ceramic sherds, soils, marble schists, breccia. Such linear regressions become readily available for a future fast, efficient and accurate way of potassium determination.
