This computational study demonstrates that the Ni(II) aspartic acid complex is the most effective eco-friendly corrosion inhibitor for iron among the tested transition metal complexes, as evidenced by its superior electronic properties and highly negative adsorption energy on the Fe(110) surface.
This study demonstrates that physical vapor deposition (PVD) can be used to fabricate tunable Ag–Cu bimetallic catalysts on carbon cloth, where optimizing the Ag:Cu ratio and deposition parameters yields a 75:25 composition with 47% Faradaic efficiency for CO production, offering a versatile strategy for efficient CO₂ electroreduction.
This study demonstrates that acid-activated Jordanian kaolinite significantly enhances the removal of phenolic compounds and heavy metals from olive mill wastewater through an efficient, endothermic adsorption process that outperforms natural kaolinite under optimal conditions of pH 6, 323 K, and 4-hour contact time.
This study utilizes Varestraint tests to demonstrate that solidification cracking susceptibility in 15Cr–15Ni–Ti-stabilised fully austenitic stainless steel welds increases with higher phosphorus and silicon contents as well as elevated Ti/(C + 0.856N) ratios, which collectively alter terminal eutectic phase characteristics to reduce cracking resistance.
This study develops a highly responsive colorimetric freshness indicator for shrimp by immobilizing reversible anthocyanin sulfite derivatives in pectin–alginate hydrogel beads, which significantly accelerates response time and enhances visual contrast compared to native anthocyanins.
This study demonstrates that analyzing soil volatile organic compound fingerprint breadth using portable gas chromatography serves as an effective screening tool for prioritizing illegal dumping sites in Jackson, Mississippi, as this metric correlates significantly with toxic-metal contamination levels, particularly arsenic, in ways that visual inspection and traditional metal indices cannot capture.
This study presents a modified PVB/PMMA-based solid-state electrolyte film with enhanced hydrophobicity and ionic conductivity, which was successfully utilized to fabricate a high-performance electrochromic laminated safety glass device featuring rapid response times, a 72% optical contrast ratio, and excellent thermal stability.
This study characterizes the thermal treatment of Russian hydrolysis lignin in a laboratory fixed bed reactor, identifying 400–500°C as the optimal temperature range for maximizing mass loss and volatile product diversity while significantly increasing the energy density of the resulting solid residue.
This study optimizes the pyrolysis of orange peel waste to produce activated carbon, which is subsequently modified with a DBU-based protic ionic liquid to create a thermally stable, high-surface-area bioadsorbent with enhanced potential for CO₂ and H₂S removal in biogas purification.
This study reports a C₂-symmetric stilbene-hydrazone-urea ligand that forms anion-directed supramolecular assemblies with distinct geometries, enabling phosphate-triggered guest release and photo-induced disassembly via concurrent E/Z isomerization of both C=C and C=N bonds.
