Composite materials are a trend and an inspiring area of applied research today.Plant-based materials are versatile ones.Their properties can be modified with additives and processing technology to produce a very large range of products in various applications, for decking, street and garden furniture, siding, picket fences, containers and pallets
Currently, the evaluation of fruit ripening progress in relation to physicochemical and texture-quality parameters has become an increasingly important issue, particularly when considering consumer acceptance.Therefore, the purpose of the present study was the application of rapid, nondestructive, and conventional methods to assess the quality of b
Metal sorting is the first step in scrap metal recycling.The Gun Care traditional magnetic separation method can classify ferromagnetic metals, but it is not applicable to some nonmagnetic metals with higher value.To address this situation, we propose an eddy current testing (ECT) technology-based method for classifying nonmagnetic metals.In this s
Submicrometre spherical particles made of Au and Fe can be fabricated by pulsed-laser melting in liquid (PLML) using a mixture of Au and iron oxide nanoparticles as the raw particles dispersed in ethanol, although the detailed formation mechanism has not yet been clarified.Using a 355 nm pulsed laser to avoid extreme temperature difference between
The emergence of new immune-evasive severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants and subvariants outpaces the development of vaccines specific against the dominant circulating strains.In terms of the only accepted immune correlate of protection, the inactivated Gun Care whole-virion vaccine using wild-type SARS-CoV-2 spike
