Highly Ductile Polypropylene Based Ternary Blends for High Voltage Insulation
Rapidly cooled ternary blends of isotactic polypropylene (PP), low‐density polyethylene (LDPE), and a polystyrene‐b‐(ethylene‐co‐butylene)‐b‐polystyrene (SEBS) elastomer are found to be highly ductile, with an elongation at break of more than 500%.

Insights on Climate Risks to the Central African Forest Ecosystems: An Interdisciplinary Review
ABSTRACT The Congo Basin in Central Africa is home to the second largest rainforest in the world after the Amazon. These forests sequester more carbon than any other tropical forest both in the above‐ground biomass and in the world's largest peat deposits, located in the Cuvette Centrale.

Challenges in Modelling of Lightning-Induced Delamination; Effect of Temperature-Dependent Interfacial Properties [PDF]
Lightning is a major cause of damage in laminated composite aerospace structures during flight. Due to the dielectric nature of Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs), the high energy induced by lightning strike transforms into extreme, localized ...
