Salivary gland hypofunction in KK‐Ay type 2 diabetic mice

Journal of Diabetes, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 18-27, January 2018., 2018
Abstract Background Hypofunction of different organs in the body is associated with diabetes, including in the oral cavity. Diabetes is often associated with xerostomia, but the underlying mechanism is not well characterized. Thus, the mechanisms underlying diabetes‐induced xerostomia were investigated in this study in KK‐A y mice as an experimental ...

Improving the Electrochemical Properties of SiOx/Graphite Anode for High‐Performance Lithium‐Ion Batteries by Ultrathin Lithium Film Prelithiation

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐capacity SiOx/graphite (SiO/G) anodes offer great potential for advancing lithium‐ion battery technology; however, their practical application is limited by low initial coulombic efficiency (ICE) and rapid capacity decay. These challenges primarily arise from unstable phase transitions and the formation of the solid electrolyte interphase

Pre‐Formation of LiF‐Rich Interfaces on Prelithiated Si/C Anodes for High‐Energy Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Prelithiation is effective for compensating active lithium‐ion (Li+) loss in silicon (Si)‐based battery electrode materials. However, owing to the dynamic growth of the solid electrolyte interface (SEI), capacity fading remains the biggest challenge for the industrialization of Si electrodes.

Regulating TGO Nucleation and Growth of MCrAlX Coatings via Femtosecond Laser Remelting: The Role of Reactive Elements in the Oxidation Resistance

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT MCrAlX coatings are widely used as bond coats in thermal barrier coating systems to protect turbine blades from high‐temperature oxidation. However, their oxidation resistance is often restricted by uncontrolled microstructures, surface roughness, and aggregation of reactive elements (REs). In this study, high‐repetition‐rate femtosecond laser

Fabrication‐Driven Oxidation Pathways in Y/Hf‐Modified High‐Entropy Alloys: From Elemental Segregation to Oxide Homogeneity

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study elucidates the oxidation mechanisms governing Y/Hf‐doped AlCoCrFeNiTi high‐entropy alloys (HEAs) and reveals the pivotal role of fabrication processes in dictating high‐temperature oxidation behavior. We demonstrate that casting and spark plasma sintering (SPS) promote Y/Hf segregation, resulting in heterogeneous oxide formation and
