Masterbatch-enabled acceleration of polyolefin biodegradation under open air terrestrial environmental conditions

Abstract Polyolefins, commonly used in packaging and single-use products, are notoriously persistent in the environment, contributing significantly to environmental pollution. In scientific literature to date, polyolefins have not been repo...

High‐performance optical noncontact controlling system based on broadband PtTex/Si heterojunction photodetectors for human–machine interaction

Abstract Noncontact interaction systems have attracted considerable research attention in recent years because of convenient operation, sterility, and injury prevention. However, the insufficient sensing distance and weak robustness of nonc...

Corrosion Behavior for Sealing Polymer Materials under Simulated Condition for High-Pressure Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis

Sealing is a core factor for the safe operation of high-pressure proton exchange membrane electrolysis cells(PEMECs).To investigate the corrosion behavior of sealing polymer materials，two experimental methods were established: an accelerate...

Low-frequency noise analysis on asymmetric damage and self-recovery behaviors of ZnSnO thin-film transistors under hot carrier stress

Abstract The need for understanding the low-frequency noise (LFN) of metal oxide semiconductor thin-film transistors (TFTs) is increasing owing to the substantial effects of LFN in various circuit applications. A focal point of inquiry pert...

Design and Research of Multimodal Fusion Feedback Device Based on Virtual Interactive System

This paper proposes a kinesthetic–tactile fusion feedback system based on virtual interaction. Combining the results of human fingertip deformation characteristics analysis and an upper limb motion mechanism, a fingertip tactile feedback de...

SOLUTION AND ANALYSIS OF THERMAL ELASTOHYDRODYNAMIC LUBRICATION MODEL FOR TOOTH AND SLIDING RING COMBINED SEAL

Combined with the high pressure and high temperature working condition and the characteristics of tooth and sliding ring combined seal, the mathematical model of the rotating slip ring type combined seal is established based on the theory o...

Advances of Single‐Atomic Cobalt Catalysts in Liquid‐Phase Selective Oxidative Reactions

Single‐atom catalysts (SACs) composed of atomically dispersed metal‐active sites embedded in supporting substrates are attracting increasing attention in liquid‐phase selective oxidation reactions with joint merits of both advanced catalyti...

It’s the Social Interaction That Matters: Exploring Residents’ Motivation to Invest in the Community-Shared Charging Post Co-Construction Project

Countries worldwide are increasingly focused on addressing the imbalance between the supply and demand for EV charging infrastructure, with the community-shared charging post (CSCP) co-construction project emerging as a promising solution. ...

Sustainable re-use of waste glass, cement and lime treated dredged material as pavement material

The amount of waste materials such as dredged materials (DM) and waste glass (WG) have been growing exponentially since the middle of the 20th century. The most important problem created by them is the lack of space to be used for storage b...

INFLUENCE OF ACTIVE MODIFICATION PARAMETERS ON BEARING CHARACTERISTICS OF OPPOSITE GEAR PAIRS (MT)

Active gear design is a method that can pre-control gear meshing performance directly. In order to study the influence of active gear design on the bearing characteristics of tooth surface, the relationship between active modification param...

Gasification of Lignocellulosic Waste in Supercritical Water: Study of Thermodynamic Equilibrium as a Nonlinear Programming Problem

As one of the main industrial segments of the current geoeconomics scenario, agro-industrial activities generate excessive amounts of waste. The gasification of such waste using supercritical water (SCWG) has the potential to convert the wa...

Boost Converter Fed High Performance BLDC Drive for Solar PV Array Powered Air Cooling System

This paper proposes the utilization of a DC-DC boost converter as a mediator between a Solar Photovoltaic (SPV) array and the Voltage Source Inverters (VSI) in an SPV array powered air cooling system to attain maximum efficiency. The boost ...

Electrical Properties of Electrospun Fibers of PANI-PMMA Composites

Electrospinning is one of the simplest techniques for obtaining polymer nano fibers. Nanofibers have large surface area to volume ratio and hence have excellent application potential in sensors, filter design etc. Polyaniline (PANI) is the ...
