This study investigates the coupled substitution of metakaolin and limestone in Portland cement (PC). The mechanical properties were studied in mortars and the microstructural development in pastes by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry analysis, mercury i ...
CitS from Klebsiella pneumoniae acts as a secondary symporter of citrate and sodium ions across the inner membrane of the host. The protein is the best characterized member of the 2-hydroxycarboxylate transporter family, while no experimental structural in ...
Cr poisoning is a well-identified performance degradation process in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC). While stainless steel (SS) interconnects have been identified to be a significant source of Cr, the Cr contribution from balance-of-plant (BoP) components l ...
Bank filtration induces flow of surface water through a hydraulically connected aquifer by excess pumping from a production well in the aquifer. This review presents the four main geochemical processes relevant for inorganic geochemistry, with a focus on i ...
A BaCO3 slurry, containing radioactive C-14, is produced during the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel. This slurry is encapsulated in a Portland-blastfurnace slag composite cement. The effect of BaCO3 on the hydration of OPC and Portland-blastfurnace slag ...
The anodic dissolution of 100Cr6 steel in neutral electrolytes containing sodium chloride and sodium nitrate was investigated potentiodynamically and galvanodynamically with a rotating disc electrode at room temperature. The total concentration of the mixe ...
Benzo-15-crown-5 functionalized polymer brushes prepared via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization are used as the active layer in a potassium-selective quartz crystal microbalance sensor. The polymer brushes allow the selective detection ...
Reaction of anilines, primary and secondary aliph. amines with cyclopropylboronic acid in dichloroethane in the presence of Cu(OAc)2 (1 equiv.), 2,2'-bipyridine (1 equiv.) and sodium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate (2 equiv.) under air atm. afforded the co ...
The incommensurately modulated structure of the mineral natrite has been refined for the first time. Two single-crystal grains, Lv and Kh, from two different occurrences [Mt. Karnasurt, Lovozero massif (Lv), Kola peninsula, Russia, and the pegmatite of Mt. ...
In dye-sensitized solar cells an efficient transfer of holes from the oxidized dye to the contact is necessary, which in solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells is performed by hole-conductor mols. In this report we use photoinduced absorption and transient ...
