Chemical weathering of the volcanic soils of Isla Santa Cruz (Galápagos Islands, Ecuador) [PDF]
We present a study on weathering of volcanic soils using 43 profiles (131 horizons) sampled in Santa Cruz Island (Galapagos Islands). Several weathering indices, based on chemical composition, are used. Since the geological material is highly homogeneous

Characterization of halloysite-water nanofluid for heat transfer applications [PDF]
Nanofluids based on water with halloysite (Hal) nanotubes were prepared and characterized in order to evaluate its suitability to be used as a heat transfer fluid.

Naphthalene sorption on red clay and halloysite modified by quaternary ammonium salts
Sorption of naphthalene on modified red clay and halloysite was carried out successfully. It was established that the process was of pseudo-second-order mechanism. The maximum sorption capacities were 9.23 mg/g and 112.79 mg/g for red clay and halloysite,

Rainfall‐induced landslides involving on Auckland Volcanic Field scoria cones are highly unusual, compared with widespread landsliding in the surrounding Auckland clay‐rich residual soils. Indeed, while Auckland can suffer from thousands of rainfall‐induced shallow landslides from severe storms at subdecadal timescales, these are usually limited to ...

This study investigated how successive injection molding recycling affects the properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA). Gel permeation chromatography showed a two‐thirds molar mass reduction after ten reprocessing cycles. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed lower glass transition and cold crystallization temperatures.

Dose–response of biochar in a clay soil: fifteen mixtures (fBC 0–1) reveal nonlinear thresholds (pH/EC) and sharp WHC gains near fBC ≈ 0.3–0.5. Coupled FT‐IR and FFC‐NMR (0.01–10 MHz; ModelFree τc distributions) link water dynamics to soil functionality.

Selective functionalization of halloysite cavity by click reaction: structured filler for enhancing mechanical properties of bionanocomposite films [PDF]
Selective modification of the inner surface of halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) by the cycloaddition of azides and alkynes (click reaction) was successfully achieved. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetry confirmed that the modification

Abstract Orbital remote sensing observations are a lynchpin of planetary science research. Hyperspectral infrared spectroscopy in particular is key for planetary mineralogical exploration, for example, CRISM for Mars, as this underpins our understanding of the distribution of specific lithologies and the geological process leading to their formation ...
