Incorporation of Coconut Fibers Into Clay‐Based Mortars: A Study on Mechanical and Microscopic Behavior

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ceramic Engineering &Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, March 2026.
Clay‐based mortar reinforced with coconut fibers showed improved flexural strength and promising mechanical performance, despite shrinkage‐induced cracks. The study highlights the potential of using waste and natural fibers in eco‐efficient mortars, emphasizing the importance of curing and moisture control.

Aspectos da hidratação de óxido de magnésio em formulações de concretos refratários Aspects of magnesium oxide hydration in refractory castables compositions

open access: yesCerâmica, 2006
Óxido de magnésio (MgO) ou magnésia é uma das matérias primas mais importantes para a indústria de refratários. Graças à sua elevada refratariedade (ponto de fusão da ordem de 2800 ºC) e resistência à corrosão me meios básicos, associadas a custos ...

Gas transport and separation with ceramic membranes. Part I: Multilayer diffusion and capillary condensation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Multilayer diffusion and capillary condensation of propylene on supported γ-alumina films greatly improved the permeability and selectivity. Multilayer diffusion, occurring at relative pressures of 0.4 to 0.8 strongly increased the permeability of 6 ...

Uncovering the Key Factors Influencing Phytochemical and Phytopharmacological Properties During Medicinal Plant Processing

open access: yeseFood, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
From farm to pharma, this review details the engineering of quality in medicinal plants through a science‐driven approach: it first elucidates how genetic and environmental factors inscribe the plant's phytochemical and phytopharmacological profile before harvest, and then dissects the postharvest techniques and technologies—chemical and thermal pre ...

Multi-disciplinary Investigation of the Windows of John Thornton, focusing on the Great East Window of York Minster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Twenty-seven samples of glass from panel 2e of John Thornton’s Great East Window (1405–1408) at York Minster have been analyzed using energy dispersive x-ray analysis in the scanning electron microscope. This paper highlights our findings.

Self‐Consistent Models of Earth's Mantle and Core From Long‐Period Seismic and Tidal Constraints

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Here we illustrate the use of parameterized models to address fundamental questions about Earth's mantle and core structure. For this, we invert a large set of normal‐mode center frequencies and quality (attenuation) factors, along with astronomic‐geodetic data, for the radial anelastic seismic structure of the Earth.

Magnesium-Containing Slurry as Technogenic Alternative Raw Material for Magnesium Oxychloride Cement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
It has been shown experimentally that a waste of magnesium metal production is a realistic alternative to naturally occurring cement raw materials. The waste is the carnallite slurry forming during the chlorination stage.

Thixotropic and Mechanical Behavior of MgO–SiO2 Pastes Incorporating Rice Husk Ash for Extrusion‐Based 3D Printing

open access: yesJournal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Rice husk ash (RHA) is an agricultural by‐product that can replace microsilica (MS) as a suitable silica source in MgO–SiO2 cement mixes, offering low‐carbon benefits. This study investigated the 3D printing properties, including thixotropy and hardened mechanical properties, of the MgO–SiO2 system formed by partial and total replacement of MS
