The effect of B4C addition on the shielding properties of polydimethylsiloxane-novolac composite

open access: yesScientific Reports
This research aims to make a polymer composite of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)/Novolac base reinforced by B4C particles. The hot press method was used to produce a polymer composite with an optimum ratio of 85/15 PDMS/Novolac and 7, 12, 15, 20, and 30 ...

Understanding Operando Water Management in Hydroxide‐Exchange‐Membrane Fuel Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Effective water management is vital for high‐performance hydroxide‐exchange‐membrane fuel cells. Using a custom water‐flux station, this study quantifies how membrane thickness, microporous layers, and operating conditions dictate internal water transport.

Gas‐Selective Remote Plasma Engineering of WO3 Photoanodes for Solar Water Splitting

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Gas‐selective remote plasma treatment tunes the near‐surface defect chemistry of WO3 photoanodes without altering their bulk structure. Ar plasma generates the most oxygen‐vacancy‐rich surface and the highest W5+ content, delivering the strongest photocurrent.

MODELING THE PERFORMANCE OF HIGH BURNUP THORIA AND URANIA PWR FUEL

open access: yes, 2002
Fuel performance models have been developed to assess the performance of ThO[subscript 2]-UO[subscript 2] fuels that can be operated to a high burnup up to 80-100MWd/kgHM in current and future Light Water Reactors (LWRs).
