Bring the Boys Back Home: The Impact of Foreign Divestments on Local Firms

open access: yesThe World Economy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Divestments by foreign multinationals are an important phenomenon that is largely neglected in the literature. We use firm‐level panel data from China to estimate the impact of such divestments on the performance of domestic firms in the local economy.

Stationary steam power in the United Kingdom, 1800–70: An empirical reassessment

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 825-848, August 2025.
Abstract The conventional view that the industrial revolution was premised on the unprecedented supply of mechanical power delivered via steam engines has been undermined by econometric work, purporting to show that their adoption outside the cotton and mining sectors was extremely limited until at least 1870.

Global Value Chains, Foreign Direct Investment, and Industrial Pollution Intensity in China

open access: yesReview of International Economics, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 741-764, August 2025.
ABSTRACT As the search for resilience alters global value chains (GVCs), many developing countries hope to benefit from GVC participation. China's heavy reliance on GVC trade and its high pollution levels suggest that such benefits may come at the cost of the environment. Yet direct evidence on environmental effects from GVCs is limited.

The Role of Reducibility of PtGaOx‐Based Catalysts for Efficient and Durable Propane Dehydrogenation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 64, Issue 31, July 28, 2025.
The reaction‐induced reduction of oxidized GaOx was found to be the main cause of deactivation for PtGaOx catalysts in PDH because of the lower reactivity of reduced GaOx to form hydrogen through Pt‐assisted recombination of two surface H atoms formed from propane. This undesired transformation can be inhibited by increasing the strength of the Ga─O─Al

Effects of vacuum-distilled carbon residue on the reactivity of carbon anode

open access: yes工程科学学报
The use of vacuum-distilled carbon residues to replace part of prebaked carbon coke reflects the high-value resource utilization of carbon residues and has the potential to improve the anode reactivity.

Petroleum coke-based bricks for frost protection

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1967
Recently a new family of frost protection devices has become available. Heaters are now being made from petroleum wax or coke and molded in various forms, such as candles, bricks or flat trays. Because these devices have a much lower heat output per unit
