TiO electrode interface modification layer promises the prominent electrical/macroscopic properties of the metallized dielectric films.

BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene)//TiO /Al composite films with "laminated" structure were prepared by vacuum evaporation and layer-by-layer coating. The microstructure of composite film was studied by XRD and TEM, and the interface characteristics of composite electrode were also studied by AES, while the pure Al metallized films were used as the comparison. The effect of the intermediate interlayer of BOPP/TiO nanocomposite films on the electrical properties of the metallized films was systematically studied by characterizing the self-healing and through-current ability of the modified composite films, , It was found that the wettability between the metal electrode and the dielectric film of the modified dielectric film had been apparently regulated due to the insertion of the metal oxide on its surface, which generated not merely the reduced threshold thickness of the Al electrode, and also increased through-current ability of the metallized film.

Heme Oxygenase-1, a Key Enzyme for the Cytoprotective Actions of Halophenols by Upregulating Nrf2 Expression via Activating Erk1/2 and PI3K/Akt in EA.hy926 Cells.

Increasing evidence has demonstrated that heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a key enzyme triggered by cellular stress, exhibiting cytoprotective, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory abilities. Previously, we prepared a series of novel active halophenols possessing strong antioxidant activities in vitro and in vivo. In the present study, we demonstrated that these halophenols exhibited significant protective effects against HO-induced injury in EA.
