Reduced graphene oxide decorated with SnO2 nanoparticles as negative electrode for lithium ion capacitors
(Elsevier, 2018-07-25)
The effort to increase the energy density of conventional electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs) goes through the development of lithium-ion capacitors (LICs). Herein, we report a self-standing, binder-free composite as ...
Regeneration of NiAl2O4 spinel type catalysts used in the reforming of raw bio-oil
(Elsevier, 2018-12-01)
The regenerability of Ni catalysts in reforming reactions is a key factor for process viability. Accordingly, this study addresses the regeneration of two spinel NiAl2O4 type catalysts by reaction-regeneration cycles in ...
Regenerability of a Ni catalyst in the in-line catalytic steam reforming of biomass pyrolysis volatiles
(Elsevier, 2018-12)
A study has been carried out of the regenerability of a commercial Ni catalyst used in the steam reforming of volatiles from biomass pyrolysis, determining the evolution of the reaction indices in successive reaction-regeneration ...
Multistage treatment of almonds waste biomass: characterization and assessment of the potential applications of raw material and products
(Elsevier, 2018-09-06)
Almond shells are waste biomass generated in agro-industrial activities, which represent a resource that can be further valorized upon treatment. The purpose of this work was to assess new value-added products obtained ...
Non-destructive characterisation of the Elephant Moraine 83227 meteorite using confocal Raman, micro-energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence and Raman-scanning electron microscope-energy-dispersive X-ray microscopies
(Springer, 2018)
The application of a non-destructive analytical procedure to characterise the mineral phases in meteorites is a key issue in order to preserve this type of scarce materials. In the present work, the Elephant Moraine 83227 ...
Miscibility, interactions and antimicrobial activity of poly(ε-caprolactone)/ chloramphenicol blends
(Elsevier, 2018-03-13)
Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) has been blended with Chloramphenicol (CAM), a well-known bacteriostatic antibiotic, in order to obtain new biomaterials with antibacterial properties. The resulting samples have been thoroughly ...
Miscibility and degradation of polymer blends based on biodegradable poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)
(Elsevier, 2018-02-21)
The aim of this work is to analyse the effect of the preparation method on the miscibility of poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) and poly(hydroxy ether of bisphenol A) (PH) blends and to provide a better ...
Role of Ce substitution in the magneto-crystalline anisotropy of tetragonal ZrFe10Si2
(Elsevier, 2018-10-25)
We report the study of Zr1-xCexFe10Si2 (x = 0.0, 0.3 and 0.6) compounds, with tetragonal ThMn12 structure, by means of neutron diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy to understand the role of Ce in the increasing ...
Nursing students’ alternative beliefs regarding care for patients suffering from depression
(Elsevier, 2018-02-03)
Depression is an illness that constitutes a major challenge for Public Health worldwide. Therefore, there is a clear need to receive training to care for this type of patient. This study sets out to identify non-scientific ...
Late Quaternary marine ostracods of the Basque Basin (S Bay of Biscay) taxonomy and distribution
(Sociedad Española de Paleontología (SEP), 2018)
En este trabajo se describen la taxonomía y las distribuciones ecológicas y de edad de los ostrácodos del Cuaternario final en la Cuenca Vasca (S Golfo de Vizcaya). Más de cuarenta y cuatro mil especímenes han sido obtenidos ...
