In this study, we investigated if industrial high-density polyethylene (HDPE) particles, a model microplastic free of additives, ranging > 0-80 μm are ingested and taken up into the cells and tissue of the blue mussel Mytilus edulis L. The effects of exposure (up to 96 h) and plastic ingestion were observed at the cel…

Although many works are published about the achieved advancements in the manufacturing of the catalytic converters (CC) system for vehicle engines and their testing under laboratory conditions, there is a lack in the published research about the mileages influence on their conversion efficiency (CE). Dependence of dua…

This paper deals with the lateral-torsional buckling of elastic microstructured beams. A linear gradient elasticity approach is presented. The elastic constitutive law is linear for the generalized beam model, expressed with first- and second-order moment variables in a sixth-order dimensional stress-strain space. The…

We employ density functional theory to investigate ground state hole transfer in covalently linked oxidized zinc-zinc porphyrin ([ZnZn](+)) and zinc-free-base porphyrin ([ZnFb](+)) dyads in both coplanar and noncoplanar (tilted) conformations. We obtain reactant, product, and transition state (TS) for the hole transfe…

The concentration of a nonionic surfactant and water pH were varied in an oil-in-water emulsion to minimize the friction coefficient between a steel ball sliding on a steel flat. At a surfactant concentration near the CMC (critical micelle concentration) the oil droplet size was found to be minimum. In this paper we s…

The performance of kenaf powder (KP) as filler for recycled high density polyethylene (rHDPE)/natural rubber (NR) thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) composites was investigated. The composites with different filler loading were prepared in a Haake internal mixer. Increasing KP loading in rHDPE/NR/KP biocomposites reduced t…

THz absorption and spectroscopic ellipsometry were used to investigate the charge dynamics and electronic structures of monolayer graphene with doping by triazine. The absorption spectrum of the triazine-doped film shows an optical excitation near 5.1 eV that is blue shifted compared with that of undoped analog. THz c…

With emission legislation becoming ever more stringent, automotive companies are forced to invest heavily into solutions to meet the targets set. To date the most effective way of treating emissions is through the use of catalytic converters. Current testing methods of catalytic converters whether being tested on a ve…

We report electronic transport of Dirac cones when Fe is replaced by Ru, which has an isoelectronic electron configuration to Fe, using single crystals of Ba(Fe${}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$Ru${}_{x}$As)${}_{2}$. The electronic transport of parabolic bands is shown to be suppressed by scattering due to the crystal lattice di…

In a twist: The carboxylate ligand in the clamp of a highly preorganized diferrous site shows temperature-dependent dynamic behavior, coined the “carboxylate twist”. It leads to a fluctuation of the electric field gradient and thus averaged Mössbauer resonances at higher temperatures, resulting in magnetic and spectro…

We report small-angle neutron scattering studies on the microstructure network in bulk (Bi,Sb)2Te3 synthesized by the melt-spinning (MS) and the spark-plasma-sintering (SPS) process. We find that rough interfaces of multiscale microstructures generated by the MS are responsible for the large reduction of both lattice…

Complex fluids in shear flow and biased dynamics in crowded environments exhibit counterintuitive features which are difficult to address both at a theoretical level and by molecular dynamic simulations. To understand some of these features we study a schematic model of a highly viscous liquid, the two-dimensional Kob…
