The structural properties and the single-file diffusion in one-dimensional interacting colloidal systems are studied by means of Brownian dynamics simulations. We consider three types of particle interactions, namely, Weeks-Chandler-Andersen, screened Coulomb, and superparamagnetic potentials. We find that, regardless…

The Pd/silicon carbide (SiC) reaction rate in tristructural isotropic (TRISO)‐coated fuel particles has been studied. We have shown that it is possible to reduce the attack by palladium significantly by controlling the SiC microstructure. Large grain sizes as well as high coating rates did not increase the attack by P…

BACKGROUND: Methylotrophic (methanol-utilizing) bacteria offer great potential as cell factories in the production of numerous products from biomass-derived methanol. Bio-methanol is essentially a non-food substrate, an advantage over sugar-utilizing cell factories. Low-value products as well as fine chemicals and adv…

The title problem is solved for an internally pressurised hole within the framework of plane-stress finite-strain plasticity. Material behaviour is modelled by the Tresca-associated flow theory with arbitrary hardening (softening), accounting for thickness changes and elastic compressibility. Three distinct plastic zo…

Advances in basic knowledge relevant to the pseudocapacitive and electrocatalytic properties of RuO(2) materials require a detailed understanding of the redox chemistry that occurs at the electrode interface. Although several redox processes have been identified via dc cyclic voltammograms derived from surface-confine…

The electrochemical synthesis of a new dithienylcyclopentadienone-derivative/3-methylthiopene copolymer was performed by cyclic voltammetry. The obtained material shows redox processes very close to those from the pristine DTCPD. A new redox process at -1.24 V, with a large anodic shift (0.51 V) related to the poly(3-…

A ‘bottom-up’ approach is utilized for assembling magnetic nanoparticles in a mesoporous silica solid for the generation of a magnetic nanocomposite. Grafting of a palladium complex of the type (L)2PdCl2 (L=Si(OMe)3 functionalized PPh3) results in an active, recyclable catalyst for CC coupling reactions.

Abstract In recent years, the interest for using biogas derived from biomass as fuel in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) has increased. To maximise the biogas to electrical energy output, it is important to study the effects of the main biogas components (CH 4 and CO 2 ), minor ones and traces (e.g. H 2 S) on performanc…
