However, they tend to agglomerate and sediment, which is an unfavorable phenomenon. An effective strategy to prevent this is to modify the surface of the particles with polymeric compounds, which can increase compatibility and stability in the electrolyte system. To reduce agglomeration and sedimentation, a method was developed to modify aluminum oxide and silica particles using aluminum carboxylate, which chemically combines with inorganic particles that have hydroxyl groups on their surface through an alkoxide bond. This method allows the introduction of oligooxyethylene groups to the ceramic surface, thus obtaining more stable systems. The effectiveness of this modification was confirmed through dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements of particle size in liquid organic solvents, which are potential solvents for liquid electrolytes in lithium-ion cells. The modified nanosilica and aluminum oxide particles were then used as additives to solid polymer electrolytes made of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO). This led to higher conductivity values compared to the use of unmodified fillers. The obtained values of lithium transference number for solid polymer electrolyte with PEO/CF₃SO₃Li and nanosilica or aluminum oxide modified with aluminum carboxylate are equal to 0.32–0.40.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":2,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Bio Materials","volume":"130 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00339-024-08007-3.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142598917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mass yield evaluation represents a key element in order to perform the best estimation of independent and cumulative fission product yields. Today, the lack of analysis-based correlation matrix between the different fission observables induces many inconsistencies in the evaluations. In particular, the mass yield uncertainties are drastically overestimated in comparison to chain yields while these two quantities only differ from the emission of delayed neutrons. In this work, a new consistent process of mass yield evaluation is proposed taking into account the description of the covariance matrix.

The primary reason for adopting Au and Ag nanoparticles as nanomaterials for drug delivery is because they exhibit potential drug transport and imaging properties for treating stenosed artery. Furthermore, velocity slip and convective boundary conditions at the surface of the artery are considered in this study. A method of suitable similarity transformations has been utilised to convert the partial differential equations (PDEs) into dimensionless ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and using the bvp4c built-in solver in MATLAB mathematical software, numerical solutions have been obtained. The plots of the results show that the hybrid nanofluid (Au–Ag/blood) has greater thermal conductance than the normal nanofluid (Au/blood). The temperature and velocity of the blood gradually increase as the percentage of nanoparticles in the blood flow grows. The heat transference rate increases with increase in Biot number (<i>Bi</i>) and radiation (<i>Nr</i>) effect, which helps in removing the toxic plaque from the artery. Due to the contraction of the artery, dual solutions are found, but dual solutions cannot be found beyond the critical values of suction (<i>S</i>) and shrinking (<span>(lambda )</span>) parameters. The critical values <span>(S_C)</span> from computation are 1.5851, 1.5949 and critical values <span>(lambda _C)</span> are 0.652, 0.781 for Au/blood nanofluid (NF) and Au–Ag/blood hybrid nanofluid (HNF), respectively. Also, the stability of blood flow is achieved by finding the lowest eigenvalue. A positive minimum eigenvalue (<span>(beta _1)</span>) denotes the upper stable solution branch, whereas a negative minimal eigenvalue indicates the bottom unstable solution branch. The entropy of the blood as the HNF flow was found to increase with nanoparticle volume fraction (<span>(phi _1, phi _2)</span>), porous parameter (<i>P</i>) and magnetic parameter (<i>M</i>). These results will help greatly to avoid brain stroke or heart attack caused by the burst of an artery.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":1,"journal":{"name":"Accounts of Chemical Research","volume":"98 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142596060","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
