Porous Graphene-like Carbon from Fast Catalytic Decomposition of Biomass for Energy Storage Applications
(American Chemical Society, 2019)
A novel carbon material made of porous graphene-like nanosheets was synthesized from biomass resources by a simple catalytic graphitization process using nickel as a catalyst for applications in electrodes for energy storage ...

Intragranular carbon nanotubes in alumina-based composites for reinforced ceramics
(Springer Nature, 2019)
The traditional methods for the synthesis of reinforced alumina-based matrix composites with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have presented serious difficulties for obtaining well-dispersed and homogeneously distributed CNTs within ...

Influence of Thermal and Magnetic History on Direct DTad Measurements of Ni49+xMn36-xIn15 Heusler Alloys
(MDPI, 2019-10-25)
In the present work, using Heusler Ni49+xMn36-xIn15 (with x = 0 and 0.5) alloys, it is shown that the choice of the appropriate measurement protocol (erasing the prior state of the sample in between experiments) in DTad ...

Bandage contact lens use after photorefractive keratectomy
(Wolters Kluwer Health, 2019-08)
The use of a bandage contact lens (BCL) immediately after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) results in less pain. This review analyzed which BCL is most effective in decreasing pain immediately after PRK and evaluated the ...

FORC study of the ferromagnetic impurities in Na and K feldspars of El Realejo mine
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2019)
Feldspar is a Na-K-Ca-Al tectosilicate, generally poor in iron or other elements with large magnetic moments. Being the most abundant constituent minerals in Earth’s crust, feldspars are technologically used in a broad ...
