The antimicrobial efficiency of silver activated sorbents
(Elsevier, 2015)
This study is focused on the surface modifications of the materials that are used for antimicrobial water treatment. Sorbents of different origin were activated by Ag+-ions. The selection of the most appropriate materials ...
Soil erodibility in European mountain beech forests
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2021)
Forests in Europe are currently not endangered by soil erosion. However, this can change with climate change orwith intensified forest management practices. Using a newly established network of plots in beech forests across ...
Natural Pigment from Madder Plant as an Eco-Friendly Cathode Material for Aqueous Li and Na-Ion Batteries
(IOP Publishing, 2021)
Modifying commercial Li-ion batteries to become more environmentally friendly is of a growing concern. This paper provides anexamination of a potential replacement for commercial cathode material using a naturally occurring ...
Structural, morphological and textural properties of iron manganite (FeMnO3) thick films applied for humidity sensing
(Elsevier, 2020)
Iron manganite (FeMnO3) powder with a cubic (bixbyite,−Ia3) crystal structure was obtained by a solid statereaction. Thick film paste (powder+organic vehicles) was screen printed on alumina substrate with test interdigitatedPdAg ...
Influence of annealing temperature on sensitisation behaviour and corrosion properties of an Al-6.8wt% Mg alloy
(Wiley, 2016)
Influence of annealing temperature on beta-(Al3Mg2) phase precipitation and corrosion properties of sensitised Al-6.8wt% Mg alloy is investigated. Sensitisation of specimens annealed at 320 degrees C results in IGC and SCC ...
Oxidative stress and DNA damage in horses naturally infected with Theileria equi
(Elsevier, 2016)
The aim of this study was to determine the concentrations of oxidative stress parameters and DNA damage in horses infected by Theileria equi. Initial screening of 110 horses with duplex PCR enabled the selection of 30 ...
Electrocatalytic Activity of Ionic-Liquid-Derived Porous Carbon Materials for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction
(Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, Weinheim, 2018)
Carbon materials, prepared by using different methods with ionic liquids, are compared as electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Materials were synthesized through the hydrothermal carbonization of glucose ...
What is the preferred geometry of sulfur–disulfide interactions?
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020)
Non-covalent interactions between disulfide fragments and sulfur atoms were studied in crystal structures of small molecules and by quantum chemical calculations. Statistical analysis of the geometrical data from the ...
Functionalization of polypropylene, polyamide and cellulose acetate materials with pyrethrum extract as a natural repellent in supercritical carbon dioxide
(Elsevier, 2018)
This study discusses the possibility of supercritical solvent impregnation of polypropylene and polyamide fabrics as well as cellulose acetate in the form of beads and films with pyrethrum extract in order to fabricate ...
Methanol oxidation on Ru/Pd(poly) in alkaline solution
(Elsevier, 2018)
Polycrystalline Pd electrode, Pd(poly), is modified by Ru nanoislands using spontaneous deposition method. Coverage of Pd(poly) electrode with the deposited Ru are approx. 20, 30 and 50% as estimated from phase atomic force ...
