The transport of oxygen in dense samples of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), of average grain size d approximately 50 nm, has been studied by means of 18O/16O exchange annealing and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). Oxygen diffusion coefficients (D*) and oxygen surface exchange coefficients (k*) were measured for temperatures 673

Background: Acute lung injury (ALI) is a disordered pulmonary disease characterized by acute respiratory insufficiency with tachypnea, cyanosis refractory to oxygen and diffuse alveolar infiltrates. Despite increased research into ALI, current clinical treatments lack effectiveness. Tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) has shown potential in ALI treatment, and understanding its effects on the pulmonary microenvironment and its underlying mechanisms is imperative.

Objective: To identify factors influencing neurological prognosis following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and to analyze the role of brain tissue oxygen pressure (PbtO) monitoring in prognostication.

Methods: In this case-control study, medical records of 412 individuals diagnosed with TBI were thoroughly examined and analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups based on their prognosis at three months post-injury: Good Prognosis (n = 321) and Poor Prognosis (n = 91).

School of Materials and Energy, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, China.

Copper-tantalum (Cu-Ta) immiscible alloy nanoparticles (NPs) have been the subject of extensive research in the field of structural materials, due to their exceptional nanostructural stability and high-temperature creep properties. However, Cu is also a highly active oxidation catalyst due to its abundant valence changes. In this study, we have for the first time obtained homogeneous CuTa ( = 0.

Effect of the Electrolyte on the Oxygen Reduction Reaction with PCN-224(Co).

ChemSusChem

January 2025

Leiden University: Universiteit Leiden, Leiden Institute of Chemistry, Einsteinweg 55, Room number EE4.19, 2333 CC, Leiden, NETHERLANDS, KINGDOM OF THE.

Electrocatalysis in metal-organic frameworks is an interplay between the diffusion of charges, the intrinsic catalytic rate, and the mass-transport of reactants through the pores. Here a systematic study is carried out to investigate the role of the electrolyte nature and concentration on the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) with the PCN-224(Co) MOF in aqueous electrolyte. It was found that the ORR activity is slightly influenced by the nature of the ions in solution, providing that the ionic strength is high enough to minimize the resistivity during the measurement.
