The degree of crystallinity in cellulose significantly affects the physical, mechanical, and
chemical properties of cellulosic materials, their processing, and their final application …

In the past decade several versions of micro-scale residual stress analysis techniques have
been developed based on Focused Ion Beam (FIB) milling at sample surface followed by …

Cellulose is often described as a mixture of crystalline and amorphous material. A large part
of the general understanding of the chemical, biochemical and physical properties of …

The fabrication of fungicides in cost-effective and eco-friendly ways is particularly important
for agriculture. Plant pathogenic fungi produce many economic and ecological problems …

A global approach has been developed to analyze complex thin film structures by X-ray
diffraction. The method is based on the fitting of multiple data, diffraction pattern and/or …

Understanding the micromechanical consequences of transformation-induced plasticity
(TRIP)-assisted steels is challenging, due to the presence of multiple phase constituents and …

Entropy-stabilized oxides represent a novel family of advanced ceramic materials with
attractive functional properties. In this work, entropy-stabilized oxides, in the system (Mg, Co …

Abstract High-Entropy Oxides (HEOs) are a totally new class of ceramic materials that have
recently attracted many scientific attentions. However, the huge intrinsic complexity and the …

The synthesis and characterization of the vanadium-based kagome metal Tb V 6 Sn 6 is
presented. X-ray measurements confirm that this material forms with the same crystal …

The tribological phenomena that occur in brake systems are interesting even in other
respects than just the braking action. One important issue, that is gaining increasing …
