The mechanical and tribological characteristics of the Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy were investigated within a wide range of temperature and time parameters of thermal oxidation. The hardness, H and indentation modulus, E of the alloy in question, with and without an anti-wear oxide layer, were determined. The tribological properties of sliding couples were studied under technically dry friction conditions, using a ball-on-disc tribometer. The test pieces were non-oxidized and oxidized Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy discs, and AlO, ZrO and 100Cr6 balls were used as counter specimens. After thermal oxidation, the surface of the titanium alloy was characterized by a significantly higher hardness, H (8-10 GPa), compared to the surface not covered with oxide layers (3.6 GPa). The study showed that the curvature of the loading segments increased with an increasing oxidation temperature, indicating a strong positive dependence of hardness on the thermal oxidation temperature. The value of the indentation modulus, E, was also found to increase with the increasing oxidation temperature. The intensity of the tribological processes was strictly dependent on the oxidation parameters and the couple's material (AlO, ZrO, 100Cr6). It has been shown that the thermal oxidation process makes it possible to control, within a wide range, the friction-wear characteristics of the Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy.

This paper presents an in-depth analytical investigation into the time-dependent flow of a Casson hybrid nanofluid over a radially stretching sheet. The study introduces the effects of magnetic fields and thermal radiation, along with velocity and thermal slip, to model real-world systems for enhancing heat transfer in critical industrial applications. The hybrid nanofluid consists of three nanoparticles-Copper and Graphene Oxide-suspended in Kerosene Oil, selected for their stable and superior thermal properties.

In this paper, zein-carboxymethyl starch (CMS) nanoparticles were prepared by antisolvent precipitation method to improve the stability of rutin (RT). The encapsulation efficiency, loading capacity, oxidation resistance, structural properties were evaluated. The results showed that electrostatic, hydrogen bond and hydrophobic interaction were the main driving forces for the formation of nanoparticles.

Microplastics (MPs) are produced from various primary and secondary sources and pose multifaceted environmental problems. They are of non-biodegradable nature and may stay in aquatic environments for a long time period. The present review has covered novel aspects pertaining to MPs that were not covered in earlier studies.

Capacitive-based radiofrequency (Rf) radiation at 27 MHz offers a non-invasive approach for inducing hyperthermia, making it a promising technique for thermal cancer therapy applications. To achieve focused and site-specific hyperthermia, external material is required that efficiently convert Rf radiation into localized heat. Nanomaterials capable of absorbing Rf energy and convert into heat for targeted ablation are of critical importance.

Unlabelled: Despite the remarkably high antioxidant activity of tocopherols, their applications in the food industry are limited because of their instability under various conditions. Complexes of α-tocopherol (α-TQ) or α-tocopheryl acetate (α-TQA) with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) or starch were prepared and characterized by UV-vis, IR and thermal analysis. Oxidative stability of α-TQ and α-TQA against HO was 74.
