Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Phase‐Separated Cellulose Filler/Poly(Lactic Acid)/Elastomer Composites via Microstructure‐Informed Physics Simulation and In Situ Synchrotron X‐Ray Micro‐CT

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Phase‐separation microstructure and mechanical properties of a ternary biocomposite evaluated by integrated AFM, AFM‐informed FEM, and in situ X‐ray CT. ABSTRACT This study investigates phase‐separated cellulose filler/poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/elastomer ternary composites to enhance the mechanical performance of bioplastics. Atomic force microscopy (AFM)

Exposure to Occupational Inhalants and the Risk of Developing Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by joint pain, swelling, and stiffness. Although smoking is a well‐established risk factor for RA, the role of occupational inhalants in RA development is less well recognized.

Departing from standard practices: Strategic application of value engineering in the anatomy laboratory to enhance formaldehyde extraction using high‐impact, low‐cost, and low‐maintenance solutions

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 241-253, March 2025.
Abstract This study describes the process of developing a high‐impact, low‐cost, and low‐maintenance air ventilation system for anatomy facilities. It employed the strategic application of Value Engineering (VE), assuring that the air ventilation system meets contemporary threshold limit values (TLVs) for formaldehyde in the working zone of dissection ...

Combined effect of increasing the post‐reformer temperature and adding red mud as a secondary catalyst in the thermocatalytic reforming of digestate

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This work studies the combined effect of increasing the post‐reformer temperature and introducing red mud as a support catalyst in the thermocatalytic reforming (TCR®) of digestate. The TCR® method, developed by the Fraunhofer Institute for Environmental, Safety and Energy Technology UMSICHT (abbreviated as Fraunhofer UMSICHT), is an extension
