[1] We explore the extent to which chemistry-aerosol-climate coupling influences predictions of future ozone and aerosols as well as future climate using the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) general circulation model II’ with on-line simulation of tropospheric ozone-NOx-hydrocarbon chemistry and sulfate, nitrate, ammonium, black carbon, primary organic carbon, and secondary organic ca...

Compositions of biotite from three different rock types of Mashhad granitoids, i.e., granodiorite, monzogranite and leucogranite in NE of Iran have been documented by electron microprobe and wet chemistry for Fe3+ and Fe2+. Mashhad granitoids have been geochronologically and petrologically grouped into G1 and G2 phases. Microprobe data show that the total Fe contents in biotite from G2 leucogra...

The density of biochemical factors of blood in wet cupping is statistically different from phlebotomy In summary we have cupped 40 volunteers and at the same time we sampled their venous blood. Then wet cupping and venous samples were sent to the lab for comparing blood triglyceride, cholesterol, sugar, urea, uric acid and creatinine factors. The results show that there are significant differen...

This paper discusses how a qualitative understanding on the physics of failure can lead to a theoretical derivation of effective features that are useful for condition monitoring of wet friction clutches. The physical relationships between the features and the mean coefficient of friction (COF) which can be seen as the representation of the degradation level of a wet friction clutch are theoret...

BACKGROUND There is a clinical need for point-of-care (POC) methods for non-vitamin K-dependent oral anticoagulants (NOACs). We modified a routine POC procedure: Zafena's Simple Simon™ PT-INR, a room-temperature, wet-chemistry prothrombin time method of the Owren-type. METHODS To either increase or decrease NOAC interference, two assay variants were devised by replacing the standard 10 µL end...

The chapter gives an overview of the most important synthetic methods to produce graphene oxide via wet chemistry. Brodie-Staudenmaier-Hummers and free-water based approaches are reported and where it is considered the influence of synthesis on the graphene oxide structure. Physical chemical and morphological characterisations are described in the second part of the chapter. In the last section...

An approach based on a solution-based synthesis that produces a thermally stable Ag/oxide/S₂ Te₃ -Te metal-semiconductor heterostructure is described. With this approach, a figure of merit of zT = 1.0 at 460 K is achieved, a record for a heterostructured material made using wet chemistry. Combining experiments and theory shows that the large increase in the material's Seebeck coefficient result...

A radical polymer is an aliphatic organic polymer bearing densely populated unpaired electrons in the pendant robust radical groups per repeating unit. These radicals’ unpaired electrons are characterized by very fast electron-transfer reactivity, allowing reversible charging as the electrode-active materials for secondary batteries. Organic-based radical batteries have several advantages over ...
