Spaceflight Promotes Biofilm Formation by Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
Understanding the effects of spaceflight on microbial communities is crucial for the success of long-term, manned space missions. Surface-associated bacterial communities, known as biofilms, were abundant on the Mir space station and continue to be a ...

Preparation and properties of superhydrophobic epoxy composite coatings on magnesium alloys
The traditional preparation process of superhydrophobic surfaces(SHS) is complicated and the mechanical stability of SHS is less than satisfactory in most cases, which seriously restricts the practical application. The "binder+nanoparticles" strategy was
