(Korean Academy Prosthodontics, 2019-12)
PURPOSE. The purpose of this study is to assess the accuracy of three intraoral scanners along the complete dental arch and evaluate the feasibility of the assessment methodology for further in vivo analysis. MATERIALS AND ...
Effect of template type on the preparation of the emeraldine salt form of polyaniline (PANI-ES) with horseradish peroxidase isoenzyme C (HRPC) and hydrogen peroxide
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-10-17)
Horseradish peroxidase isoenzyme C (HRPC) is often used as catalyst for the preparation of the conductive emeraldine salt form of polyaniline (PANI-ES) from aniline and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the presence of anionic ...
Catalyst Deactivation And Regeneration Processes In Biogas Tri-Reforming Process. The Effect Of Hydrogen Sulfide Addition
(MDPI AG, 2018-01-09)
This work studies Ni-based catalyst deactivation and regeneration processes in the presence of H2S under a biogas tri-reforming process for hydrogen production, which is an energy vector of great interest. 25 ppm of hydrogen ...
Influence of Cryogenic Treatment on Wear Resistance and Microstructure of AISI A8 Tool Steel
(MDPI, 2018-12)
The effects of deep cryogenic treatment (DCT) on the wear behavior of different tool steels have been widely reported in the scientific literature with uneven results. Some tool steels show a significant improvement in ...

(MDPI, 2019-06-12)
Railway communications are closely impacted by the evolution and availability of new wireless communication technologies. Traditionally, the critical nature of railway services, the long lifecycle of rolling stock, and ...
The cross layer RMPA handover: a reliable mobility pattern aware handover strategy for broadband wireless communication in a high-speed railway domain
(Springer, 2012)
Enhancing the handover process in broadband wireless communication deployment has traditionally motivated many research initiatives. In a high-speed railway domain, the challenge is even greater. Owing to the long distances ...
Iridescent Cellulose Nanocrystal Films: the Link Between Structural Colour and Bragg's Law
(Iop Publishing, 2018-04-30)
Structural colour is a phenomenon found in nature, which provides plants and animals with vibrant optical properties. The production of this colour is based on the interaction of incident light with the hierarchical ...
Towards Circular Economy: Different Strategies for Polyurethane Waste Recycling and the Obtaining of New Products
(MDPI, 2018-11-22)
As a consequence of the high production and simultaneous consumption of polyurethanes
(PU) a great volume of PU waste is landfilled. In this scenario, suitable and efficient routes for PU
waste recycling have been searched ...
Lignocellulosic Biomass as a Source of Raw Materials for the Synthesis of Polyurethanes
(MDPI, 2018-11-06)
Precursors have been satisfactorily synthesized from lignocellulosic biomass for later use in the synthesis of polyurethanes resulting in competitive final properties with those of petroleum derived polyurethanes
