Cyanoacetamidobetaine—A Zwitterionic Nitrile Derivative
The reaction of sodium dicyanamide with betainium chloride in aqueous solution affords N‐cyano‐2‐(trimethylammonio)acetaminide (cyanoacetamidobetaine). Single crystal X‐ray diffraction reveals a monoclinic structure comprising a trimethylammonium head group connected to a cyanoacetaminide unit via a methylene bridge.

Exploring the Tribological Properties of 3D Printed Polymer Composites: An Experimental Study
Tribological pin‐on‐disc testing of FDM‐manufactured pins. Pins made from PLA, TPU, bronze‐filled PLA (BRO), and their combinations were tested against a SAE 1020 steel disc to evaluate friction, wear, and surface morphology. ABSTRACT In recent years, additive manufacturing, especially 3D printing, has been gaining more space in the production of parts

Enhanced impact strength in PLLA‐based composites via ε‐caprolactone incorporation in the matrix. ABSTRACT Inherent brittleness and limited toughness of polylactide (PLA) restrict its use in high‐performance applications. To overcome these limitations, poly(L‐lactide) (PLLA) is often blended with more ductile thermoplastics or chemically modified ...

Decomposition rate of organic fertilizers: effect on yield, nitrogen availability and nitrogen stock in the soil [PDF]
The nitrogen of organic fertilizers does not fully mineralize within a season, and hence will partly become available in later years. This effect is taken into account for the first year but generally not in later fertilizer applications.
