Carbon fiber is essential in many industries. Since primary production is highly energy-intensive, recycling technologies are being sought. A goal of the research was to develop at a laboratory scale a chemical recycling method aimed at recovering ca...

Glass-based microfluidic devices are essential for applications such as diagnostics and drug discovery, which utilize their optical clarity and chemical stability. This review systematically analyzes pulsed laser micromachining as a transformative te...

Nuclear fuel pellets are subject to stress for long periods during the in-pile operation, and this study on high-temperature creep performance is of great significance for predicting the in-pile behaviors and safety evaluation of fuel elements. In th...

Xanthones are a group of polyphenolic compounds widely known to have antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and antioxidant properties. To fully utilize their therapeutic potential, this study aimed to enhance the solubil...

Various forms of alumina have attracted considerable attention for their ability to remove anionic dyes from wastewater, attributed to their high specific surface area, and environmental safety. In this study, a series of modified alumina materials w...

When developing fabrics for applications in which evaporative cooling and drying play an important role, e.g., sports or occupational applications, the drying performance of fabrics is commonly determined using fast and easy-to-perform benchmark meth...

This study investigates the microstructural evolution and mechanical degradation mechanisms of cold-drawn 310S stainless steel subjected to repeated thermal cycling between 900 °C and room temperature. The results reveal that thermal cycling indu...

In this study, a flame-retardant wood-polymer composite was produced using huntite-hydromagnesite mineral, recognized for its non- flammability properties. In this context, wood-polymer composites were produced with the co-rotating twin-screw extrusi...

Blackseed oil supplemented with caseinate (CA)–carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCH) composite membranes were evaluated for their functional properties and as edible coating for extending the shelf life of grape tomatoes. Composite films were prepared...

Fly ash aggregates (FAAs) were synthesized via a hydrothermal process, involving the reaction of fly ash and cement at 180 °C under saturated steam conditions. A thorough examination was carried out to evaluate the impact of cement content on the...
