Output Quality, Productivity, and Demand: Evidence from the Chinese Steel Industry
ABSTRACT Unobserved objective output quality complicates the analysis of firm productivity and demand because higher‐quality products entail higher costs but offer greater consumption benefits. Using a panel of firms with output quality data, we decompose quantity‐based productivity into fundamental productivity and the costs of quality, and separate ...

Commercially exploited seaweed species in Africa, their biochemical composition, current uses, and value chain are reviewed. Potential value‐addition of seaweed is suggested regionally in Africa amongst countries producing similar seaweed species. ABSTRACT Africa has a wide range of coastal environments that support a diverse array of seaweed species ...

O‐demethylation of aryl methyl ethers is an invaluable transformation, playing a critical role in ecological circulation by degrading abundant lignin‐derived compounds and other natural products. Chemical O‐demethylation requires harsh reaction conditions; thus, the need for biocatalytic solutions is of high interest.

This study explored how effective nickel aluminide coatings are obtained in providing oxidation resistance applied to the Inconel 738 alloy, modeling with diffusion models. In the present study, kinetics and thermal behavior of the Inconel 738 alloy were studied by the low‐temperature thermoreactive aluminizing process, which was carried out at 625°C ...

From Doping to Polarity Control: Transport Switching in Silicon Nanowire Field‐Effect Transistors
Junctionless nanowire transistors (JNTs) based on phosphorus‐doped silicon demonstrate electrostatic polarity control, ambipolar and unipolar modes, and scalable short‐channel performance. Tunable gate configurations and doping levels enable high on/off ratios and CMOS compatibility, highlighting JNTs as promising candidates for reconfigurable, next ...

Abstract Background Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) with dose escalation is increasingly used for pancreatic cancer; however, the dosimetric impact of metallic biliary stents remains poorly characterized. Self‐expanding metal stents (SEMS), commonly placed for obstructive jaundice, contain high‐density nitinol that produces computed ...

Durable quasi‐liquid polymer brush surfaces provide an anti‐scaling strategy for hypersaline brine evaporation and zero‐liquid‐discharge desalination. The smooth, liquid‐like QLS interface suppresses substrate‐side salt nucleation, promotes compact crystallization and dewetting, reduces crystal–surface contact area, and enables low‐adhesion salt ...

Ultrasoft silicone elastomers often sacrifice surface functionality for mechanical compliance. In Mold Star, low‐molecular‐weight species form a dispersed phase that weakens the network and passivates the surface. Solvent extraction removes this phase, unexpectedly improving both extensibility and metallization performance, enabling conductive ...
