Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on improving the specific energy density of lithium-ion batteries (LIB) for electric vehicles by using optimization methods.
  • Researchers utilized design experiments to assess key factors such as electrode thickness, porosity, and particle size affecting battery performance.
  • By applying the progressive quadratic response surface method (PQRSM), they achieved a 56.8% increase in specific energy density and reduced polarization by 11.5% while ensuring that power density remained acceptable.

We have isolated a new prenylated chalcone from the roots of Sophora flavescens (Leguminosae). We determined that structure of this compound is 7,9,2',4'-tetrahydroxy-8-isopentenyl-5-methoxychalcone (1) on the basis of spectroscopic analysis (1D and 2D NMR data). Compound 1 exhibited potent cytotoxicity against human acute promyelocytic (HL60), mouse lymphocytic (L1210) and human histiocytic (U937) leukemia cells.

The clastogenic effects of volatile organic compounds in the workplace air of a chemical factory were studied by means of the Tradescantia micronucleus (Trad-MCN) assay and chemical analysis. Sampling was performed at a chemical factory producing PVC film in Cheong-ju, South Korea. Inflorescences of Tradescantia BNL 4430 were placed for 2, 6, and 9 h at the height of 1.
