The effect of seawater hardness on cotton fabric dyeing using reactive blue dye

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Oceans are an abundant source of water; their economic potential has not yet been fully exploited. In this context, the current study aims to apply seawater in the dyeing of cotton fabrics, evaluating the influence that total hardness has on the process results.

Effects of dispersed Bonny Light crude oil on water quality parameters in tanks containing Oreochromis niloticus [PDF]

, 2013
The physico-chemical characteristics of water samples contaminated with a mixture of the water accommodated fractions (WAF) dispersed and undispersed phases of Bonny Light crude oil at sub-lethal concentrations of 0.2, 0.4, 0.8 and 1.6ml/L were analyzed ...

Potential of organogel‐based colloidal hydrogels for new cosmetic formulations

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Colloidal hydrogels are formed by combining anionic, cationic, or nonionic surfactants with two oils of cosmetic interest: sweet almond oil and phytosqualane. These systems are obtained through hot emulsification followed by cooling, which leads to the aggregation of gel‐like particles.

Alleviation of photoaging‐associated MMP upregulation, prostanoid biosynthesis, and cell cycle arrest with titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, and inorganic‐only (ZnO + TiO2) sunscreens

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Inorganic sunscreens containing the UV filters titanium dioxide (TiO2) and/or zinc oxide (ZnO) alleviated various biomarkers of photoaging in human dermal fibroblasts, at a gene and protein level. The study provides novel insights that observe the impact of inorganic photoprotection through the molecular biology of skin.

Revisiting acidulation for tall oil and lignin manufacturing

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 1677-1691, April 2026.
Abstract Tall oil is a byproduct of the kraft pulping process when softwood is used as raw material. As the production of softwood‐based pulp is in high demand, the optimization of the tall oil production process needs to be revisited to ensure the highest quality and quantity of tall oil manufacturing. In this work, the process for tall oil production

Redlining and Prevalent Obesity, Hypertension, and Diabetes in GuLF Study Participants

Obesity Science &Practice, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective The Home Owners' Loan Corporation (HOLC) created color‐coded maps of more than 200 U.S. cities in the 1930s to facilitate mortgage lending, with redlined neighborhoods marked in red and assigned the “worst” grade (D). Historic redlining has persistent present‐day consequences, although few studies have explored redlining in relation ...

Mechanical and Dielectric Properties of Porous Slip Cast Silicon Nitride: Yttrium Oxide‐Aluminum Oxide Sintering Aids

International Journal of Applied Ceramic Technology, Volume 23, Issue 2, April 2026.
Silicon nitride samples were slip cast using yttrium oxide‐aluminum sintering aids to fabricate porous materials for radar frequency windows. Microstructure and phase composition were determined. Flexural strength, elastic modulus, dielectric constant, and loss tangent were collected from room temperature to elevated temperatures up to 1200°C.

Nitride‐Reinforced Metal Matrix Nanocomposite Powders Production by Plasma‐Assisted Thermochemical Treatment of Intermetallic Powders

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 5, 4 March 2026.
This study proposes a new methodology for producing metal matrix nanocomposites in the solid state. The process involves the plasma‐assisted thermochemical treatment of metallic alloy powders. As a proof‐of‐concept, TiN nanoparticles are synthesized directly on the surface of FeTi intermetallic powder particles, enabling the development of the ...
