Nanocellulose, including cellulose nanofibers (CNFs), cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), and bacterial nanocellulose (BNC), represents a promising class of bio-based nanomaterials derived from natural sources. These materials, derived from plant-based ce...

A high-pressure torsion (HPT) with a number of revolutions (n) of up to 10 and an advanced method of accumulative HPT (AccHPT), n = 10 with subsequent post-deformation annealing (PDA) at 500 and 600 °C, were applied to a biodegradable Fe-30Mn-5Si...

In the pharmaceutical industry, deep eutectic solvents can be used to enhance the solubility, permeability, and absorption of active pharmaceutical ingredients. In this paper, deep eutectic solvents were prepared by combining the active pharmaceutica...

A metal–organic framework, MOF-S1, was synthesized via a solvothermal reaction between 2,4,6-tris-(4-carboxyphenoxy)-1,3,5-triazine (TCPT) and zinc nitrate hexahydrate. Single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction analyses confirmed the formatio...

The water contents and geochemical evidence of nominally anhydrous minerals in peridotite xenoliths provide critical insights into lithospheric mantle features, offering a deep understanding of cratonic destruction and mantle evolution processes. Dam...

This research presents an innovative method for revisiting heterogeneous nucleation in the formation of spheroidal graphite during the production of ductile cast iron. This study incorporates controlled melting at a temperature of 1200 °C, follow...

Flexible supercapacitors have emerged as pivotal energy storage components in wearable smart electronic systems, owing to their exceptional electrochemical performance. However, the widespread application of flexible supercapacitors in smart electron...

This study aims to determine the electrochemical performance of FeWO4 (Fe), NiFeOOH (Ni), and FeWO4/NiFeOOH (FeNi) electrodes in 0.1 M Na2SO4 and 0.1 M NaOH electrolytes, highlighting the impact of SO42− and OH− ions. Nyquist analysis dem...

To address the critical applications of heterogeneous structures involving nickel-based superalloys (IN718) and copper alloys (CuSn10) under extreme operating conditions, and to address the limitations of traditional joining techniques in terms of in...

Our research aims to determine the optical properties of binary composites based on TiO2 and SiO2 oxides combined with additional metal oxides such as CuO and SrO. The inclusion of CuO and SrO together with TiO2 and SiO2 nanoparticles is driven by th...
