Hot embossing of polypropylene micro-tubes into functional tubular components with controlled inner-pore sizes

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
To meet ever-increasing demands on the micro-components for medical and non-medical applications, a new micro-shaping technology - “hot embossing of micro-tubes”, had been developed for the forming of polymeric tubular micro-components.

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all

Fatigue Strength in Additive Toolmaking: A Study of Metal Binder Jetting and Electron Beam Melting for Processing Carbide‐Rich Cold‐Work Tool Steels

steel research international, EarlyView.
Focusing on the critical tap hole region of the blast furnace, this work examines binder characteristics, prepares tap hole clay with different formulations, and evaluates their physical properties. The findings confirm the advantages of composite binders and offer a new binder option for tap hole clay.

Influences of Cleanliness, Carbide Size, Hardness, and Residual Stresses on Long‐Life Fatigue Strength and Crack‐Initiation Mechanisms in Carbide‐Rich Cold‐Work Tool Steels Using Normalized S–N Curves and Database‐Driven Validation of Murakami's √Area Model

steel research international, EarlyView.
Rotating‐bending fatigue tests on AISI D2 and AISI A11 quantify how cleanliness, carbide structure, hardness, and fabrication‐induced compressive residual stresses govern long‐life fatigue at NG = 107 cycles. Statistical fracture‐surface analysis and extreme‐value √area statistics link crack‐initiators to LLF strength.

Rapid Translation of the Early Coding Region Promotes Premature Transcription Termination, Reducing Protein Expression in Escherichia coli

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
A run of consecutive fast‐translated codons (right) within the first 30 codons of lacZ (top) causes loss of the downstream transcript at positions coinciding with previously mapped intragenic Rho‐dependent termination sites (middle), and a corresponding loss of β‐galactosidase activity (bottom).

Citric‐Acid Polyester‐Modified Melamine–Formaldehyde Resins: Mechanistic Insights and Implications for Greener Decorative Laminates

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 40, October 20, 2026.
Driven by the need for more sustainable materials in the laminate industry, poly(glycerol citrate) was introduced as a bio‐based modifier that significantly altered the cure kinetics and structural evolution of melamine–formaldehyde resins. Correlated FTIR, DSC, TGA, and rheological analyses revealed accelerated network formation, enabling lower ...
