This study investigates the phenomenon of exploding wire (EW), focusing on the decrease in electrical current during the dark pause (dp) in copper filament explosions in atmospheric air. An exponential model is proposed ...

An essential element in the synthesis of nanomaterials based on gold nanoparticles comprises the control over parameters such as size, shape and composition, due to their strong influence on the properties of the particl...

The deposition of fat, oil, and grease (FOG) from food service and residential sources in sewer pipes causes frequent blockages, sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs), and high maintenance costs, mainly due to saponification r...

A one-pot strategy was developed to coat micro- and nanomaterials with crystalline nanoparticles. Three Li-based materials were coated by a solution combustion synthesis method. By this procedure, we obtained LiCoO2 nano...

The wide use of Titanium and its alloys as biomaterial is due to their excellent mechanical properties and chemical stability, good corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Their main limitations (poor biological activ...

Abstract : Bioactive coating on composite implants facilitates biological fixation between the prosthesis and the hard tissue, and increases the long-term stability and integrity of the implants. It produces an intermedi...

Abstract The enhancement of durable and environmentally friendly superhydrophobic (SHP) coatings for metal protection remains a significant challenge. This study presents a green and effective strategy for fabricating a ...

Objective: To develop an antimicrobial and anti-adherent thymol (TOH)-containing coating on titanium (Ti) by a bioinspired one-step biocompatible method. Methods: A nanolayer of adsorbed TOH (TOH-NL-Ti) was formed by an ...

Apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) is a climacteric and perishable fruit prone to rapid postharvest deterioration due to microbial decay, moisture loss, and chilling injury. This study investigated the combined effects of chi...

The inadequate corrosion resistance and conductivity of metal bipolar plates are major obstacles to the commercialization of proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE). In this work, Nb/NbN/Mo-containing NbN mul...

Ureteral stent-associated urinary tract infections (UTIs) remain a significant clinical challenge, primarily due to bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. To address this, we engineered a multifunctional antibacterial...

Cheese surfaces can be colonized by undesirable microorganisms during the different processing stages, with ripening being the most affected. Consumers demand have increased the interest in using natural antimicrobials s...

Abstract A fiber laser was used to perform multiple laser cladding passes on AISI 1045 steel to fabricate SiC particle-reinforced Ni60A alloy coatings. The microstructure and phase composition of the cladding layers were...

Abstract Nanoparticle-reinforced metal matrix composite coatings have significant potential in mechanical part surface strengthening owing their excellent mechanical properties. This paper reports a phenomenon in which t...

Abstract TiAlSiN is a potential protection coating for die steel to improve the surface hardness, anti-wear performance and suitability. In the present study, TiAlSiN is deposited on H13 die steel by high power impulse m...

To overcome the oxidation limitation and incomplete combustion of micron-sized aluminum caused by its native oxide shell, an F2314 nanocoating was constructed on 1 μm spherical Al particles by electrostatic spray granu...

The excellent mechanical properties, high thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance combined with moderate cost make superferritic stainless steels (SFSS) commercially attractive. Though these steels are finding incr...

Studies of Mn4Si7 coatings of different thicknesses have shown that magnetron deposition practically does not change the composition of the coating in comparison with the composition of the target. The technology and bas...

Abstract A novel biphasic Dy2Hf2O7-HfO2 composite was synthesized via a solid-state reaction route for potential thermal barrier coating (TBC) applications. X-ray diffraction confirmed that the reaction between Dy2O3 and...

To address key challenges of conventional spherical gun propellants, including inconsistent energy release, harmful gas emissions, and long-term storage instability, this study utilizes fluidized bed technology combined ...

Corrosion is the major problem in the degradation of heritage metal objects. The development of appropriate treatment methods to stabilize and protect artefacts is a undeniable scientific challenge. Here we propose a new...

Abstract The primary factors contributing to poor seed quality and lower rice yields are largely attributed to inadequate seed quality management strategies. The quality of rice seeds and productivity in the Fogera Plain...
