Geothermal solid waste is one of the byproduct materials from the geothermal energy process. The silica extracted from this solid waste can be utilized as a raw material for waterproof coatings. The waterproof or hydroph...

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 ...

Abstract Natural materials (NMs) have emerged as better alternatives for the mitigation of corrosion of metals. NMs can be used as both inhibitors and coatings; however, they have been used mostly as inhibitors. In this ...

Poly(N-acryloylmorpholine) (P(NAM))-based materials have been developed to prevent protein adhesion to surfaces due to their biocompatibility and protein-repellent properties. However, transferring the benefits of P(NAM)...

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...

Glass ionomer cement as one of the restoration materials requires high compressive strength so it can last during functional activity. The latest glass ionomer cement comes with glass hybrid technology and a nanofilled r...

Acrylic resin is a denture base material mostly used in the fabrication of removable partial denture and complete denture because it is easy to process, economical and aesthetically satisfying. However, the acrylic resin...

Several metal-organic framework (MOF) materials have been recently employed in optoelectronic devices due to the unique properties of the MOF materials that result in enhanced performance and stability. In this work, the...

Achieving long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) cameras with high sensitivity and shorter exposure times faces challenges due to series reflections from high-refractive index lenses within compact optical systems. However, des...

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 ...

Structural colors generated by optical micro-/nanostructures offer a notable advantage over traditional chemical pigments, including higher purity, greater brightness, resistance to fading, and enhanced environmental fri...

ABSTRACT Fabric‐based wearable electronics are gaining increasing attention owing to their flexibility, breathability, biocompatibility, and seamless integration into clothing. However, most existing studies rely prima...

Abstract Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have proven to be of therapeutic potential against cancer. The feature of the surface coating can affect important properties of IONPs; it is therefore critical for further under...

The materials that compose the urban envelope are determinant for the reduction of heat gains and overheating of a city. Increasing the solar reflection of vertical materials is an efficient strategy to reduce urban temp...

In this article, we report the measurement of underwater aerophobicity, through the captive-bubble method, for different polymeric coatings employed to protect microscale and nanoscale flexible electronic devices for sea...

The paper is dedicated to the development of effective composite coatings with the use of carbon fillers of different morphology, their research, and application in the broadband frequency range. Electromagnetic loss stu...

In this study, WTaNbMo refractory high-entropy alloy (RHEA) coatings were successfully fabricated on Inconel 718 substrate by laser cladding. Optimal coatings with superior comprehensive performances were systematically ...

This study explores the use of Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) to apply coatings from six different organic precursors onto aluminum nanoparticles (Al NPs). The goal is to improve their energetic perfor...

PLA coating on Kraft paper is very promising systems for food packaging, and has potential environmental advantages over conventional synthetic paper coatings. This work was focused on: (i) analyzing the physicochemical,...

In this study nickel (Ni) and iron (Fe) co-deposition was performed on Al to produce Al@Ni-Fe core-shell energetic powders using electroless deposition. Energy released from Al@Ni-Fe powders in oxidizing environment was ...

IntroductionAntimicrobial resistance (AMR) is rising globally, particularly among the clinically important ESKAPE pathogens, a group of bacteria responsible for a large number of hospital-acquired infections and known fo...

The soft liner of acrylic resin dentures, used to coat removable partial dentures, still has drawbacks in the easy attachment of Candida albicans fungus. A treatment on the surface of the acrylic resin denture soft liner...
