THE EFFECT OF VERY HIGH HYDRAULIC PRESSURE ON THE PERMEABILITY AND SALT REJECTION OF REVERSE OSMOSIS MEMBRANES [PDF]
, 2015 We employ a stirred-cell reverse osmosis setup to demonstrate that a seawater reverse osmosis membrane can maintain excellent salt rejection at pressures as high as 172 bar. However, we also demonstrate a very significant drop in membrane permeability at

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.MagPiezo enables wireless activation of endogenous Piezo1 channels without genetic modification using 19 nm magnetic nanoparticles and low‐intensity magnetic fields. It generates torque forces at the piconewton scale to trigger mechanotransduction in endothelial cells, standing as a novel platform to interrogate and manipulate Piezo1 activity in vitro.

CaSO4 solubility in water–ethanol mixtures in the presence of sodium chloride at 25 °C. Application to a reverse osmosis process [PDF]
, 2013 Nowadays, the most common way to desalinate seawater is by reverse osmosis. As the degree of conversion during this process increases more freshwater is recovered from the feedwater. As a result, the salt concentration in the feed increases up to a point

Robust Polymer Hydrogels Improve Electric‐Fish‐Inspired Batteries
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Electric‐fish‐inspired hydrogel batteries based on ion‐concentration gradients offer an attractive route to soft power sources; however, the poor mechanical properties of existing hydrogels limit device assembly and performance. Here, we report poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate hydrogels that enable ion‐gradient batteries composed of
