This review explores the physics underlying the rheology of highly concentrated emulsions (HCEs) to determine the relationship between elasticity and HCE stability, and to consider …
Microwave thermography (MWT) has many advantages including strong penetrability, selective heating, volumetric heating, significant energy savings, uniform heating, and good …
The aim of this article is to provide a comprehensive and consistent overview of structural transitions during polymerization of high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs). The obtained …
A small-size microstrip-fed multi-band planar monopole antenna is presented. The base of the proposed antenna is a diamond-shaped-patch (DSP) that covers the ultrawideband (UWB…
In the present work, we discuss how oxidation conditions can affect the physical properties of oxidized alginate and crosslinking it with gelatin. We show that the amount of aldehyde …
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of manmade chemicals, which are persistent in the environment, bioaccumulative, and toxic to humans. Various treatment …
The “forever chemicals”, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), have become a threat to public health and environment because of their toxicity and bioaccumulation. Addressing …
Lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs) have drawn attention in numerous technical fields as they feature a variety of nanometer-scale structures, processability, and diverse chemical …
Nondestructive testing (NDT) of rehabilitated cement-based materials (RCMs) with carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites is quite important in the transportation and …
