Plasma Membranes Modified by Plasma Treatment or Deposition as Solid Electrolytes for Potential Application in Solid Alkaline Fuel Cells

Membranes, 2012
In the highly competitive market of fuel cells, solid alkaline fuel cells using liquid fuel (such as cheap, non-toxic and non-valorized glycerol) and not requiring noble metal as catalyst seem quite promising.

Surface Activation of Wax-Based Additives to Enhance Asphalt Rheological Properties via Rotating Plasma Treatment

Buildings, 2023
Wax-based additives have been widely used in asphalt pavement for their preferable environmental benefits. However, poor compatibility between wax-based warm mix additives and asphalt easily leads to precipitation of wax and cracking of asphalt pavement.

Solvent Welding-Based Methods Gently and Effectively Enhance the Conductivity of a Silver Nanowire Network

Nanomaterials, 2023
To enhance the conductivity of a silver nanowire (Ag NW) network, a facile solvent welding method was developed. Soaking a Ag NW network in ethylene glycol (EG) or alcohol for less than 15 min decreased the resistance about 70%.
