Counter-surfaces for radial shaft seals are usually finished by infeed grinding to avoid macro twist structures on the surface since they can impose a conveying action on the lubricant. This can lead to either leakage or starved lubrication and subse...

Microfouling is the deposition of inorganic and organic material on surfaces and can cause economic losses. This deposition affects the performance of vessels, causes corrosion, clogging of equipment and contaminates the surfaces of medical items and...

Poly(2-methoxyethyl acrylate) (PMEA) is a US FDA-approved biocompatible polymer, although there is insufficient work on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and platelet interaction analysis on PMEA-analogous polymers. In this study, we ex...

Owing to the light weight and high energy, the “All-aluminum engine” can reduce fuel consumption and pollutant emissions, showing a great significance in saving resources and protecting the environment, and becoming a research hotspot. Ho...

Supercapacitors have played an important role in electrochemical energy storage. Recently, researchers have found many effective methods to improve electrode materials with more robust performances through the increasing volume of scientific publicat...
