Occupational Exposure to Talc Increases the Risk of Lung Cancer: A Meta-Analysis of Occupational Cohort Studies

Canadian Respiratory Journal, 2017
Objective. Talc is widely used in industrial applications. Previous meta-analyses of carcinogenic effects associated with inhaled talc included publications before 2004, with a lack of data in China, the largest talc-producing country.

Microstructure–Mechanical Response Relationship in Discontinuous Fiber‐Reinforced SMC Composites: Damage Mechanisms

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Architecture of SMC composites. ABSTRACT The mechanical performance of sheet molding compounds (SMCs) is dependent on microstructural characteristics determined by material composition and processing conditions. The study investigates standard SMCs, advanced SMCs (A‐SMCs), and low‐density SMCs (LD‐SMCs) under quasi‐static and fatigue loading to ...

On the Mechanical and Thermal Behavior of PLA, PBAT, and PHBV‐Based Ternary Blends and the Effect of Short Flax Fibers as Reinforcing Agents

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Preparation and testing of biodegradable polymer ternary blends and composites with short flax fibres. ABSTRACT Bioplastics offer environmental benefits but they are costly and exhibit lower mechanical and thermal performance compared to fossil‐based counterparts. Poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) exhibits high ductility but relatively low

Chest ultrasonography to assess the kinetics and efficacy of talc pleurodesis in a model of pneumothorax: an experimental animal study

ERJ Open Research, 2018
Talc pleurodesis is used to avoid recurrences in malignant pleural effusions or pneumothorax. The lack of lung sliding detected by chest ultrasonography (CUS) after talc application is indicative of the effectiveness of pleurodesis.
