(2012-10-19)A new class of treatment processes called Advanced Reduction Processes (ARP) has been proposed. The ARPs combine activation methods and reducing agents to form highly reactive reducing radicals that degrade oxidized ...
-
(2020-04-24)Alumina-forming materials, such as FeCrAl-based alloys, Ni, Co or Fe based superalloys, have been long studied because of their excellent oxidation resistance and promising applications at high temperatures. Recently, ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)The thermodynamic behaviors of multicomponent, elastic, crystalline solids under stress and electro-magnetic fields are developed, including the extension of EulerâÂÂs equation, Gibbs equation, Gibbs-Duhem equation, the ...
-
(2012-07-16)Most paved roads in the United States are surfaced with asphalt. These asphalt pavements suffer from fatigue cracking and thermal cracking, aggravated by the oxidation and hardening of asphalt. This negative impact of ...
-
(2015-02-10)Manganese (Mn) is considered a nuisance chemical in drinking water. Manganese causes problems with staining, foul odor, undesirable tastes, and can be corrosive to pipelines. The United States Environmental Protection ...
-
(2011-02-22)Stemming from a continuing demand for fuel surrogates, composed of only a few species, combustion of high-molecular-weight hydrocarbons (>C5) is of scientific interest due to their abundance in petroleum-based fuels, which ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)A method for the oxidation of lipoproteins in vitro was developed using the free radical initiator, 2,2?-azobis-(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH). Following in vitro oxidation, the susceptibility to oxidation of ...
-
(2013-12-05)Current synthetic alternatives to autologous grafts have often failed in small diameter applications (<6 mm) due to their thrombogenicity and compliance mismatch of native vasculature. No known synthetic material is capable ...
-
(1990)Alcohol oxidase from the yeast Candida boidinii is a flavin enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of primary alcohols to their respective aldehydes using molecular oxygen. R—CH₂—OH + O₂ ⟶ R—CHO + H₂O₂ The function of alcohol ...
-
(2010-10-12)This research work has contributed in various ways to help develop a better understanding of textile composites and materials with complex microstructures in general. An instrumental part of this work was the development ...
-
(2012-10-19)Heterogeneous freezing processes in which atmospheric aerosols act as ice nuclei (IN) cause nucleation of ice crystals in the atmosphere. Heterogeneous nucleation can occur through several freezing mechanisms, including ...
-
(2012-10-19)An experimental and theoretical approach is taken to determine the effect of a heterojunction on the effective work function in a metal/high-? gate stack, the characteristics of aqueous hydrochloric acid cleaned (aq-HCl) ...
-
(2012-08-17)We hypothesized that carcass subcutaneous fat location would affect sensory and quality traits. Five carcass fat sources were tested: brisket, chuck, plate, flank, and round. Ground beef was formulated using each fat source ...
-
(2019-07-10)Nickel-based singe crystal superalloys are a class of metallic materials with a combination of high-temperature strength, toughness, and resistance to degradation in oxidizing environments, which makes them great candidates ...
-
(2021-05-04)Dimethyl Carbonate (DMC) is a carbonate ester that can be produced in environment-friendly ways, from sources such as biomass or methanol and CO2. DMC can be used as a diesel fuel additive and is also one of the main ...
-
(2022-06-03)MXenes are a class of two-dimensional nanomaterials which have drawn interest in a wide variety of fields (e.g., energy storage, sensing, catalysis, separation, etc.). While there are hundreds of possible MXene compositions, ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)Plasma oxidation, an alternative to combustion, is shown to be a non-destructive method for obtaining radiocarbon dates on perishable organic artifacts. Electrically excited oxygen gently converts organic carbon to carbon ...
-
(2019-12-02)Both feeding and in vitro tissue studies were conducted to test the hypothesis that glutamate (Glu) and glutamine (Gln), consisting of >10% of dry weight in fishmeal (FM), may be nutritionally essential for maximal growth ...
