Clinical analysis of the tooth-implant papilla for two narrow-diameter titanium-zirconium implants in the anterior area: prospective controlled clinical study
(BMC, 2024)
Background
Rehabilitation of the anterior area when the mesio-distal space is reduced is a challenge for the clinician, due to the patient’s anatomical limitations and aesthetic requirements. Narrow Diameter Implants ...
Boosting the Reactivity of Bis-Lactones to Enable Step-Growth Polymerization at Room Temperature
(ACS, 2024-03)
The development of new sustainable polymeric materials endowed with improved performances but minimal environmental impact is a major concern, with polyesters as primary targets. Lactones are key monomers thanks to ...
Kinetic Model for the Direct Conversion of CO2/CO into Light Olefins over an In2O3–ZrO2/SAPO-34 Tandem Catalyst
(ACS, 2024-01)
An original kinetic model is proposed for the direct production of light olefins by hydrogenation of CO2/CO (COx) mixtures over an In2O3–ZrO2/SAPO-34 tandem catalyst, quantifying deactivation by coke. The reaction network ...
Enhancing polarization transfer from nitrogen-vacancy centers to external nuclear spins via dangling bond mediators
(Nature, 2024)
The use of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond as a non-invasive platform for hyperpolarizing nuclear spins in molecular samples is a promising area of research with the potential to enhance the sensitivity of nuclear ...
Self-assembly and crystallization of double crystalline aliphatic thermoplastic biopolyurethane and its nucleation with cellulose nanocrystals
(Elsevier, 2022-01-13)
[EN] An aliphatic segmented thermoplastic biopolyurethane (STPU), based on aliphatic hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and 1,3 propanediol (1,3PD) as urethane rich phase and a poly(sebacate) as a macrodiol phase, with ~50 ...
Techno-economic and environmental analyses of a solar-assisted Stirling engine cogeneration system for different dwelling types in the United Kingdom
(Elsevier, 2024-02-06)
In this study, a hybrid cogeneration system that combines photovoltaic-thermal (PV-T) collectors with a Stirling engine, and a battery-pack-based energy option is proposed for residential applications. The system’s purpose ...
Zwitterionic stabilized water-borne polymer colloids for antifouling coatings
(Elsevier, 2024-03)
This study presents antifouling waterborne (meth)acrylic coatings prepared through seeded semi-continuous emulsion polymerization, using trace amounts of a zwitterionic monomer 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl dimethyl-(3-sulfop ...
Optimal design and operation of thermal energy storage systems in micro-cogeneration plants
(Elsevier, 2020-03-12)
The implementation of micro-cogeneration plants in residential buildings requires a technical and economic viability study. This analysis depends greatly on the regulatory framework controlling this kind of installations, ...
The ABC of Generalized Coordination Numbers and Their Use as a Descriptor in Electrocatalysis
(Wiley, 2023-07)
The quest for enhanced electrocatalysts can be boosted by descriptor-based analyses. Because adsorption energies are the most common descriptors, electrocatalyst design is largely based on brute-force routines that comb ...
Integrative genomic analyses reveal mechanisms of glucocorticoid resistance in acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Springer Nature, 2020-03)
Identification of genomic and epigenomic determinants of drug resistance provides important insights for improving cancer treatment. Using agnostic genome-wide interrogation of mRNA and miRNA expression, DNA methylation, ...
