Environmental Impact Assessment of an Innovative Sustainable Thermoplastic Anticorrosion Coating for Aluminum Alloy AA2024

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Life cycle assessment reveals that recyclable PPM coatings significantly reduce environmental impacts compared to epoxy, promoting sustainable aerospace corrosion protection. ABSTRACT This study evaluates the environmental performance of an innovative thermoplastic anticorrosion coating based on poly(phenylene methylene) (PPM) for aluminum alloy AA2024,

Full-scale aircraft simulation with cryogenic tunnels and status of the National Transonic Facility [PDF]

open access: yes
The effect of thermal and caloric imperfections in cryogenic nitrogen on boundary layers was determined to indicate that in order to simulate nonadiabatic laminar or turbulent boundary layers in a cryogenic nitrogen wind tunnel, the flight enthalpy ratio,

Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

Anticlastic Curvature and Material Freedom

open access: yesphysica status solidi (b), EarlyView.
Anticlastic curvature occurs in bent bars for positive Poisson's ratio; synclastic curvature occurs for negative Poisson's ratio provided the material is homogeneous and elastic. Some planar negative Poisson's ratio materials exhibit anticlastic saddle curvature rather than convex curvature in bending due to effects of 3D structure.

Satellite-derived cloud fields during the FIRE cirrus IFO case study [PDF]

open access: yes
The First ISCCP Regional Experiment (FIRE) Cirrus Intensive Field Observation (IFO) program measured cirrus cloud properties with a variety of instruments from the surface, aircraft, and satellites. Surface and aircraft observations provide a small scale
