Cover systems with synthetic water‐repellent soils

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2021
A cover system is a crucial component of engineered landfills, to minimize water percolation into the underlying waste. Capillary barriers are an alternative cover system, which has been widely used in the arid and semiarid regions as no cohesive, low ...

Soil water repellency changes with depth and relationship to physical properties within wettable and repellent soil profiles

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2017
This study explored the effect of soil water repellency (SWR) on soil hydrophysical properties with depth. Soils were sampled from two distinctly wettable and water repellent soil profiles at depth increments from 0-60 cm. The soils were selected because

Multifaceted Surface Analysis of Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Fly Ash by Water Repellent Treatment with Fatty Acid

open access: yesWaste
In this study, we aimed to conduct a multifaceted surface analysis of water repellent-treated municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) fly ash to determine the suppression mechanism of fatty acid elution.

RAT (Rattus rattus diardii L.) Repellent Made of Soursop (Annona muricata L.) Leaves Extract

open access: yesEquilibrium, 2018
House rat (Rattus rattus) is a rodent that can damage any objects at home and leave manure there by resulting in bad odor and rat also becomes a host of some disease vectors. The use of plant repellent is one alternative control utilizing rat’s olfactory

Tri-anti-finishing properties of self-made fluorosilicone-containing finishing agent towards cotton fabric

open access: yesXi'an Gongcheng Daxue xuebao, 2021
In order to improve the tri-anti-finishing properties of cotton fabric and effectively maintain the original style, the surface morphology, water-repellent, oil-repellent and anti-fouling properties of cotton fabrics after finishing were tested by using ...

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

Water repellent soils: the case for unsaturated soil mechanics

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2016
Water repellent (or “hydrophobic” or “non-wetting”) soils have been studied by soil scientists for well over a century. These soils are typified by poor water infiltration, which leads to increased soil erosion and poor crop growth.

ZW4864‐mediated inhibition of the β‐catenin/BCL9/BCL9L complex reveals therapeutic potential in bladder cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
BCL9 and BCL9L drive bladder cancer progression by enhancing β‐catenin signaling, promoting proliferation, migration, invasion, and organoid growth. Genetic depletion of BCL9(L) suppresses malignant phenotypes, while pharmacological disruption of the β‐catenin/BCL9(L) complex with ZW4864 inhibits canonical Wnt signaling and tumor‐associated cellular ...

Facile Fluorine-free Finishing for Excellent Water Repellency of Cotton Fabric and Optimization Using Response Surface Methodology

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
Cotton fabrics are popular for their excellent properties, but their wider application is always limited due to their disadvantages including lack of water repellency and easy pollution.

Molecular Dynamics Studies of Shape Memory Polymers: From Bead–Spring Models to Atomistic Simulations

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Coarse‐grained (left) and atomistic (right) models of the shape memory polymer ESTANE ETE 75DT3 are shown schematically. The two representations bridge molecular detail and mesoscopic description. Both models capture shape memory behavior, linking segmental mobility and conformational relaxation of anisotropic chains to macroscopic recovery, and ...
