441. Characterization of gas diffusion electrodes for metal-air batteries
Date: 22-07-16 

Gas diffusion electrodes are commonly used in high energy density metal-air batteries for the supply of oxygen. Hydrophobic binder materials ensure the coexistence of gas and liquid phase in the pore

442. Elastic and yield behaviors of recycled polypropylene-based composites: Experimental and modeling study
Date: 18-07-16 

In this work, stiffness and yield behaviors of recycled polypropylene (PP) based composites have been investigated by means of dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and split Hopkinson pressure bar

443. Efficient flame retardant thin films synthesized by atmospheric pressure PECVD through the high co-deposition rate of hexamethyldisiloxane and triethylphosphate on polycarbonate and polyamide-6 substrates
Date: 16-06-16 

An innovative approach to produce high-performance and halogen-free flame-retardant thin films at atmospheric pressure is reported. PDMS-based coatings with embedded dopant-rich polyphosphates are

444. Interaction of (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane with pulsed Ar-O2 afterglow: Application to nanoparticles synthesis
Date: 10-06-16 

The interaction of (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) with pulsed late Ar–O2 afterglow is characterized by the synthesis of OH, CO and CO2 in the gas phase as main by-products. Other minor

445. Transparent conductive CuCrO2 thin films deposited by pulsed injection metal organic chemical vapor deposition: up-scalable process technology for an improved transparency/conductivity trade-off
Date: 03-06-16 

Metal organic chemical vapor deposition is carefully optimized for the growth of pure CuCrO2 delafossite coatings on glass substrates. The pulsed direct liquid delivery is demonstrated to be an

446. One step deposition of PEDOT films by plasma radicals assisted polymerization via chemical vapour deposition
Date: 03-06-16 

The careful control of the electrode interface in organic devices is one of the key factors that strongly affects the application of semiconducting polymers to a wide range of organic devices. In

447. Chitosan-functionalized poly(lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticles: breaking through the brain’s tight security gateway
Date: 25-05-16 

Despite the development of several progressive treatments, many effective anticancer drugs have failed in clinical examinations due to the inability to penetrate across the blood–brain barrier. For

448. Investigating sequential vapor infiltration synthesis on block-copolymer-templated titania nanoarrays
Date: 12-05-16 

Sequential vapor infiltration synthesis (SVIS) within block-copolymer templates has emerged as an attractive means for the controlled formation of metal oxide nanoarrays on arbitrary substrates. This

Date: 17-05-16 

The chemistry and the structure of solid–liquid interface in an Al-Si based alloy during high temperature phase transformation were characterized at nanoscale using scanning Transmission Electron

450. Automatic monitoring of ash and meteorological clouds by Neural Networks
Date: 27-04-16 

Volcanic eruptions affect at different levels the population and economy of interested areas. Moreover, volcanic ash detection represents a key issue for aviation safety due to the harming effects on
