Influence of temperature and time on the Eu3+ reaction with synthetic Na-Mica-n (n = 2 and 4) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Bentonite is accepted as the best clay material for the engineered barrier of Deep Geological Repositories (DGRs). The performance of clay as the main component of the engineered barrier in the DGR has been intensively studied and the structure of the ...

Investigation of Mechanical and Wear Properties of LM24/Silicate/Fly Ash Hybrid Composite Using Vortex Technique

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2016
This work has investigated to find the influence of silicate on the wear behavior of LM 24/4 wt.% fly ash hybrid composite. The investigation reveals the effectiveness of incorporation of silicate in the composite for gaining wear reduction.

The wind of the M-type AGB star RT Virginis probed by VLTI/MIDI [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We study the circumstellar environment of the M-type AGB star RT Vir using mid-infrared high spatial resolution observations from the ESO-VLTI focal instrument MIDI. The aim of this study is to provide observational constraints on theoretical prediction that the winds of M-type AGB objects can be driven by photon scattering on iron-free silicate grains

Effect of lattice shrinking on the migration of water within zeolite LTA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Water adsorption within zeolites of the Linde Type A (LTA) structure plays an important role in processes of water removal from solvents. For this purpose, knowing in which adsorption sites water is preferably found is of interest. In this paper, the distribution of water within LTA is investigated in several aluminum-substituted frameworks ranging ...

The Limiting Effects of Dust in Brown Dwarf Model Atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophys.J.556:357,2001, 2001
We present opacity sampling model atmospheres, synthetic spectra and colors for brown dwarfs and very low mass stars in two limiting case of dust grain formation: 1) inefficient gravitational settling i.e. the dust is distributed according to the chemical equilibrium predictions, 2) efficient gravitational settling i.e.

Amino- and thiol-modified microporous silicalite-1 and mesoporous MCM-48 materials as potential effective adsorbents for Pb(II) in polluted aquatic systems

open access: yesAdsorption Science & Technology, 2018
Aluminum-free zeolite silicalite-1 and the ordered mesoporous silicates Mobile Crystalline Material No. 48 (MCM-48) were prepared and functionalized with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTMS) for the ...

Evaluation of the efficacy of hydrated sodium aluminosilicate in the prevention of aflatoxin-induced hepatic cancer in rainbow trout

open access: yesPesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2011
The use of aluminum silicates for decontaminating animal feed containing aflatoxins has yielded encouraging results in chicken and turkey poults. In contrast, very few studies have tested these substances in aquaculture. In this work, we investigated the

Understanding the operational problems and fouling characterization of RO membrane used for brackish water treatment via membrane autopsy

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2021
An autopsy of spiral wound reverse osmosis (RO) membrane operated in brackish water treatment was conducted to understand the origin and extent of foulants and fouling mechanisms.

Comet dust as a mixture of aggregates and solid particles: model consistent with ground-based and space-mission results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The most successful model of comet dust presents comet particles as aggregates of submicron grains. It qualitatively explains the spectral and angular change in the comet brightness and polarization and is consistent with the thermal infrared data and ...

Enabling Highly Efficient Solar Thermal Generation with 800°C-Stable Transparent Refractory Aerogels [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Although spectrally selective materials play a key role in existing and emerging solar thermal technologies, temperature-related degradation currently limits their use to below 700C in vacuum, and even lower temperatures in air. Here we demonstrate a solar-transparent refractory aerogel that offers stable performance up to 800C in air, which is ...
