Polycarbonate (PC) is a highly versatile plastic material that is extensively utilized across various industries due to its superior properties, including high impact strength and heat resistance. However, its durability presents significant challenges for recycling and waste management. Polycarbonate is a thermoplastic polymer representative of the class of condensation reaction polymers obtained from the reaction of bisphenol A (BPA) and a carbonyl source, such as phosgene or alkyl and aryl carbonate.

Nanocomposites based on copolymer and clay minerals are attracting increasing attention as they are appropriate for extensive applications. In this work, we present results from an experimental study on the effects of TiO nanoparticles on a pluronic-F127/laponite water solution in the sol state. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and Fourier Transform Infrared Attenuated Total Reflection Spectroscopy (FTIR-ATR) were used to characterize the systems.

Jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.), belonging to the Rhamnaceae family, is gaining increasing prominence as a perennial fruit crop with significant economic and medicinal values. Here, we conduct de novo assembly of four reference-grade genomes, encompassing one wild and three cultivated jujube accessions.

Cross Crater is a 65-km impact crater located in the Noachian highlands of the Terra Sirenum region of Mars. Geochemical modeling has indicated that alunite detected on the southwest wall of Cross Crater could have been formed by a fumarole upwelling into Cross Crater Lake and could indicate that an environment favorable to the development of life may have existed several billion years ago. Alunite did not form when Noachian precipitation reacted with basalt nor when the sediments and groundwater resulting from this reaction were reacted with a fumarole.
