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 ...
Las múltiples caras de la Inmaculada: religión, género y nación en su proclamación dogmática (1854)
(Asociación de Historia Contemporánea & Marcial Pons, 2014-12-15)
[ES]La proclamación dogmática de la Inmaculada Concepción en 1854, además de zanjar una discusión teológica bastante antigua, aportó nuevos significados a la figura de María en el conflictivo contexto
de mediados de siglo ...
Non-financial reports, anti-corruption performance and corporate reputation
(Fundação Escola de Comércio Álvares Penteado, 2015)
Objective – This paper analyzes whether the anti-corruption reporting practices of the companies are a reflection of adequate anti-corruption systems put in place by companies, or whether the disclosure is merely a tool ...
Nursing students’ misunderstandings when learning about stroke care: A phenomenographic study
(Elsevier, 2019-02)
Background: Considering the prevalence and complexity of a stroke, it is necessary to think about how undergraduate nursing students are developing knowledge for stroke care.
Aim: To obtain a vision of nursing students’ ...
Isotopic and in situ DRIFTS study of the CO2 methanation mechanism using Ni/CeO2 and Ni/Al2O3 catalysts
(Elsevier, 2019-12-23)
The CO2 methanation mechanism was studied for Ni/CeO2 and Ni/Al2O3 catalysts. The higher methanation activity and selectivity of Ni/CeO2 is attributed to: i) Ni/CeO2 combines two types of active sites efficient for CO2 ...
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 ...
Numerical assessment of the analytical models used to determine flexural and shear moduli in I-Beams when the tensile and compressive moduli are different
(Elsevier, 2020-01-30)
The different compressive and tensile moduli of fibre reinforced composites have been considered in the analysis of the flexural and shear moduli of I-beams. Firstly, the neutral axis has been determined analytically and ...

(Wiley, 2016-09-15)
In this work, hemicyanine dye LDS 722, is encapsulated into the 1-D elliptical nano-channels of MgAPO-11 aluminophosphate by crystallization inclusion method. The synthesis of the hybrid material has been optimized through ...
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 ...
