Effects of Drying-Wetting Cycles on Soil-Water Characteristic Curve
DEStech Transactions on Environment, Energy and Earth Science, 2016 Alternate drying-wetting cycle is considered to be one of the important factors that can affect the hydro-mechanical properties of soil. Due to the variability of climatic condition, soils are experienced by multiple drying-wetting cycles. But most of the previous studies on soil physical and mechanical properties are limited to a single drying-wetting

Ionic Precursors Transformed Into Vinyl Acetate Synthesis Catalyst via Reaction‐Driven Restructuring
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work demonstrates that a simple physical mixture of Pd and Au ionic precursors, KOAc promoter, and SiO2 support can transform into a highly active vinyl acetate synthesis catalyst through reaction‐driven restructuring. The results highlight reaction‐induced restructuring as an innovative and sustainable catalyst design strategy.
