Characterization of Ln4Al2O9 (Ln=Y, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb) rare-earth aluminates as new high-temperature barriers
(Elsevier, 2018-06-01)
A family of cuspidine-type rare-earth (RE) aluminates with the general formula Ln4Al2O9 (Ln= Y, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb) was prepared for potential use as thermal-barrier coating (TBC) materials with appropriate properties. Various ...
Designing multifunctional pigments for an improved energy efficiency in buildings
(Elsevier, 2017-07-15)

Effect of the synthesis conditions on the properties of La0.15Sm0.35Sr0.08Ba0.42FeO3-a cathode material for SOFCs
(2017-09-13)
The perovskite La0.15Sm0.35Sr0.08Ba0.42FeO3-a has been prepared by the glycine nitrate (GNC) route, varying the fuel/oxidizer ratio (glycine/nitrate, G/N= 1 and 2) and cooling rate (slow cooling and air-quenched), in order ...
Ionic liqids for the control of the morphology in poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) membranes
(Elsevier, 2018-10-05)
The development of polymer membranes with tailored micro-morphology and wettability is a demand in the areas of filtration, sensors, and tissue engineering, among others. The thermoplastic copolymer poly(vinylidene ...
Combustion synthesis and characterization of Ln1−xMxCr0.9Ni0.1O3 (Ln = La and/or Nd; M = Sr and/or Ca; x ≤ 0.25) perovskites for SOFCs anodes
(Elsevier, 2018-02-01)
A series of chromite perovskites with the general formula Ln1−xMxCr0.9Ni0.1O3 (Ln = La and/or Nd; M = Sr and/or Ca; x ≤ 0.25) has been prepared by three combustion synthesis routes using a different combustible substance ...
Highly thermally stable heterogeneous catalysts: study of 0D and 3D porphyrinic MOFs
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-11-13)
Heterogeneous catalysts are a great bet for green chemistry in many industrial processes and, in the past decade, promising results have been achieved in order to improve the catalytic activity of Metal Organic Frameworks ...
