Preparation and mechanical property of poly(ε-caprolactone)–matrix composites containing nano-apatite fillers modified by silane coupling agents
This study aims to improve the tensile strength and elastic modulus of nano-apatite/poly(ε-caprolactone) composites by silane-modification of the nano-apatite fillers. Three silane coupling agents were used to...

CCD photometry of five X-ray selected BL Lacertae objects
We present the results of the monitoring of a sample of 5 HBLs in the B, V and R bands during 2003–2008. All sources in our monitoring project show significant rapid optical variations, except 1ES 1959+650, ho...
