Localized Morphological Modulation of Ultrathin Magnetic Nanosheets via a Strategically Designed Reduction Approach.

2D inorganic nanomaterials have attracted considerable research interest owing to their exceptional physical and chemical properties. Nonetheless, achieving precise control over the morphology of 2D nanomaterials presents a significant challenge, primarily due to their elevated surface energy and the stringent requirements for growth control. In this study, a designed reduction technique is employed to finely tune the morphology of 2D nanosheets, with iron salts serving as morphology-directing agents.

Predictive modelling of laser powder bed fusion of Fe-based nanocrystalline alloys based on experimental data using multiple linear regression analysis.

This study harnessed bivariate correlational analysis, multiple linear regression analysis and tree-based regression analysis to examine the relationship between laser process parameters and the final material properties (bulk density, saturation magnetization ( ), and coercivity ( )) of Fe-based nano-crystalline alloys fabricated via laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). A dataset comprising of 162 experimental data points served as the foundation for the investigation. Each data point encompassed five independent variables: laser power (), laser scan speed (), hatch spacing ), layer thickness (), and energy density (), along with three dependent variables: bulk density, , and .

Advances in Psychological and Social Aetiology of Patients with Diabetes.

Diabetes is a metabolic disease that is affected by internal and external factors. Its prevalence is rising, and it is characterized by a continuous increase in blood glucose levels. With the deepening understanding of diabetes, it is not only necessary to explore its physiological basis, but also to explore the complex interaction between social and psychological factors.

Bio-Inspired Aramid Fibers@silica Binary Synergistic Aerogels with High Thermal Insulation and Fire-Retardant Performance.

Flame-retardant, thermal insulation, mechanically robust, and comprehensive protection against extreme environmental threats aerogels are highly desirable for protective equipment. Herein, inspired by the core (organic)-shell (inorganic) structure of lobster antenna, fire-retardant and mechanically robust aramid fibers@silica nanocomposite aerogels with core-shell structures are fabricated via the sol-gel-film transformation and chemical vapor deposition process. The thickness of silica coating can be well-defined and controlled by the CVD time.

Improving Ultra-Low Temperature Preservation Technologies of Soybean Pollen for Off-Season and Off-Site Hybridization.

Preserving viable pollen is of great interest to breeders to maintain desirable germplasm for future inbreeding. Ultra-low temperature preservation of pollen is an effective and safe way for long-term storage of plant germplasm resources. In this study, we improved methods for the preservation of soybean pollen at ultra-low temperature.

Synergistic Effects of Ladder and Cage Structured Phosphorus-Containing POSS with Tetrabutyl Titanate on Flame Retardancy of Vinyl Epoxy Resins.

The cage and ladder structured phosphorus-containing polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (DOPO-POSS) have been synthesized through the hydrolytic condensation of 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO)-vinyl triethoxysilane (VTES). The unique ladder and cage-ladder structured components in DOPO-POSS endowed it with good solubility in vinyl epoxy resin (VE), and it was used with tetrabutyl titanate (TBT) to construct a phosphorus-silicon-titanium synergy system for the flame retardation of VE. Thermal stabilities, mechanical properties, and flame retardancy of the resultant VE composites were investigated by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), three-point bending tests, limiting oxygen index (LOI) measurement, and cone calorimetry.
