ABSTRACT Water pollution by oil and organic substances causes serious problems that threaten the ecosystem. Superhydrophobic materials represent an effective solution for removing oil from water. The present paper investigates the development of a low‐cost, superhydrophobic composite for oil–water separation.

Study on the Fragmentation Characteristics and Dust Generation Mechanism of Coal Cutting by Pick
ABSTRACT During underground excavation, coal dust generation threatens miners' health and damages ecosystems. Its generation is directly influenced by cutting pick performance and inherent coal properties. This study investigates the effects of coal properties and cutting parameters on coal fragmentation characteristics from a mesoscopic perspective ...

ABSTRACT A thermosetting in situ curing resin microsphere system has been developed. It has controllable phase transition time and particle size. This system addresses the current challenges of low strength, shear susceptibility, and short phase transition time in polymer microsphere blockers and thermoplastic particle blockers.

Surface functionalization of polypropylene macrofibers to enhance fiber‐matrix interfacial bonding. ABSTRACT Concrete is the most used higher compressive strength‐building material, albeit brittle to tensile, and flexural loads. Polypropylene (PP) synthetic polymeric macrofibres are commonly employed as reinforcement material to prevent this situation ...

Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...
