Vacuum‐Formed Composites Based on a Polyolefin and a High Content of Biomass‐Waste Fillers

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
It is shown here that by the use of a very ductile polymer matrix, it is possible to vacuum‐form products that contain up to 25% of hard biofillers with still ductile properties. The results are promising and opens up for the use of engineered biocomposites derived from industrial side‐stream biofillers in vacuum‐formed products. A strategy to increase

A bridge between liquids and socio-economic systems: the key role of interaction strengths

, 2004
One distinctive and pervasive aspect of social systems is the fact that they comprise several kinds of agents. Thus, in order to draw parallels with physical systems one is lead to consider binary (or multi-component) compounds.

W‐Based Thin Film Metallic Glasses Doped with Ni, Zr, and B for Industrial Applications

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work is the first to deal with a comprehensive comparison of two metallic glass systems, W–Zr–B and W–Ni–B, in terms of their suitability for specific industrial applications. Their mechanical and tribological properties are compared and discussed in combination with structural homogeneity on different types of technically relevant substrates and ...

Desmoglein 2 is less important than desmoglein 3 for keratinocyte cohesion. [PDF]

, 2013
Desmosomes provide intercellular adhesive strength required for integrity of epithelial and some non-epithelial tissues. Within the epidermis, the cadherin-type adhesion molecules desmoglein (Dsg) 1-4 and desmocollin (Dsc) 1-3 build the adhesive core of ...

CeO2 Nanostructures Prepared by Selective Water‐Soluble Sr3Al2O6(SAO)‐CeO2 Vertically Aligned Nanocomposite

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Highly textured CeO2 nanowires and nanoporous thin films are successfully synthesized by water dissolution of Sr3Al2O6 (SAO) from the SAO:CeO2 vertically aligned nanocomposites (VANs). The morphology of CeO2 can be varied by VAN composition. It demonstrates a new method for synthesizing nanostructured CeO2 without chemical etching or complex micro ...

Capillary Condensation in Confined Media [PDF]

, 2009
We review here the physics of capillary condensation of liquids in confined media, with a special regard to the application in nanotechnologies. The thermodynamics of capillary condensation and thin film adsorption are first exposed along with all the ...

Long-range correlation energy calculated from coupled atomic response functions [PDF]

, 2013
An accurate determination of the electron correlation energy is essential for describing the structure, stability, and function in a wide variety of systems, ranging from gas-phase molecular assemblies to condensed matter and organic/inorganic interfaces.

Investigation of Iron‐Aluminide‐Like Phase Composition in Complex Concentrated Fe32Cu12Ni11Ti16Al29 Alloy

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work reveals the phase composition and quantitative morphology analysis of precipitation‐hardened Fe32Cu12Ni11Ti16Al29 complex‐concentrated alloy. The precipitates are shown to have a high coherency. Morphology transition between sphere, cuboidal, and elongated morphology is observed. Finally, the overaging behavior is captured using microhardness.

Continuum mechanics at nanoscale. A tool to study trees' watering and recovery

, 2017
The cohesion-tension theory expounds the crude sap ascent thanks to the negative pressure generated by evaporation of water from leaves. Nevertheless, trees pose multiple challenges and seem to live in unphysical conditions: the negative pressure ...
