Corrosion Behavior of Pure Cr, Ni, and Fe Exposed to Molten Salts at High Temperature
Corrosion resistance of pure Fe, Cr, and Ni materials exposed in NaVO3 molten salt at 700°C was evaluated in static air during 100 hours. The corrosion resistance was determined using potentiodynamic polarization, open circuit potential, and lineal ...

Radial basis function network learns ceramic processing and predicts related strength and density [PDF]
Radial basis function (RBF) neural networks were trained using the data from 273 Si3N4 modulus of rupture (MOR) bars which were tested at room temperature and 135 MOR bars which were tested at 1370 C.

Enhancing the Functional Properties of Polylactic Acid by Incorporation of Esterified Lignin
Esterified lignin from agro‐industrial wastes enhances the hydrophobicity, UV‐shielding efficiency, and antioxidant capacity of polylactic acid composites. ABSTRACT Incorporating lignin as an additive is a promising strategy to overcome the limitations of PLA‐based composites.

Abstract Intranasal diamorphine (IND), approved for managing breakthrough pain in the UK, has been identified as an acceptable alternative offering effective, expedient, and less traumatic analgesia for children. However, the current dose regimen in pediatric populations relies on clinical expertise while the pharmacokinetics properties are poorly ...

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Thermodynamic and microphysical properties of summertime marine fog observed from Sable Island
Atmospheric profiling and near‐surface fog and visibility measurements revealed synoptic‐scale forcing as the dominant factor in fog formation over Sable Island, with deep fog layers under low‐pressure systems and shallow fog layers under high‐pressure systems.

1D and 3D Carbon Nanomaterials Derived from Zeolite‐Based Catalysts: Synthesis and Applications
Zeolites act as catalysts or catalytic templates to synthesize 1D and 3D carbon nanomaterials with uniform structures, enabled by their high surface area and uniform porous frameworks. The resulting carbon nanomaterials possess excellent surface area and electronic conductivity, supporting their use in energy storage, catalysis, electronics, gas ...
