Flame‐Assisted Modification of Glass Wettability: Preliminary Results

open access: yesMacromolecular Symposia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fog formation and moisture condensation limit the performance of glass surfaces in optical, microfluidic, and sensing applications, where stable transparency under humid conditions is essential. Enhancing surface wettability represents an effective strategy to mitigate these effects; therefore, the development of methods to tailor glass ...

Compatibilization and Reinforcement of PHB/PBAT Blends via Sequential Blending of Surface‐Modified Cellulose

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Sequential blending improved the mechancial properties of PHB/PBAT/cellulose composites as compared to the one‐step batch mixing method. ABSTRACT Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a natural and biodegradable polymer generated by bacteria. While its applications to potentially replace petroleum‐based plastics are severely limited due to its brittleness and ...

Effects of heat release on triple flames [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Heat release effects on laminar flame propagation in partially premixed flows are studied. Data for analysis are obtained from direct numerical simulations of a laminar mixing layer with a uniformly approaching velocity field.

Posidonia oceanica Leaves as a Natural Filler for Poly(Butylene Succinate‐Co‐Adipate) Composites: Characterization and Biodegradation Assessment in Seawater

open access: yesJournal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
This study shows that incorporating 5–10 wt.% Posidonia oceanica, with or without micro‐talc, in PBSA preserves thermal stability, modifying crystallization behavior, and maintains good filler dispersion and interfacial adhesion. Mechanical properties are moderately stiffened.

Combustion analysis by image processing of premixed flames [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings 2000 International Conference on Image Processing (Cat. No.00CH37101), 2000
We describe a three-step algorithm for the analysis of color images of flames, with the objective of analyzing the combustion process and its control parameters indirectly. The algorithm first extracts the interesting regions, applying a clustering method in the RGB color space, identifying and eliminating irrelevant regions and applying morphological ...

On the Influence of Antioxidants and Recycled MgO–C Source Material on the Mechanical Properties of Carbon‐Bonded Magnesia Refractories

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 10, 20 May 2026.
The presented study focuses on the fracture behaviour of carbon‐bonded magnesia MgO–C refractories, where environmentally friendly fructose, collagen and lignin serve as temporary binding agents. The partial substitution of the source material with recycled MgO–C reduces the fracture resistance, which can be counteracted by the additional introduction ...
