Particles in wildfire smoke can lower air quality and harm human health. Smoke aerosols can also influence weather and ...

Table 3 presents the soundproofing characteristics of materials based on super-thin basalt fibre with an elementary fibre diameter of 1 to 3 microns. The hygroscopicity of basalt fibres is 6-8 times ...

Bonumose has secured a preliminary victory in its battle with the FDA over the labeling of tagatose, a low-glycemic, ...

Her research interests focus on the physical, chemical and optical properties of aerosol particles and their applications in atmospheric science and industry, in particular the use of the kinetics of ...

Generic mechanism for hydrolysis by FrozenMan CC BY-SA 4.0 A noteworthy property of the XT-CF20’s PETG base resin is its hygroscopicity. It absorbs water from ambient humidity, which then leads ...

To understand how both ultrafine and larger particles influence cloud formation and precipitation, the team employed particle size data and hygroscopicity profiles generated by the WRF-Chem model, ...

The migration and hygroscopicity of lithium salt in doped spiro-OMeTAD hampers the device efficiency of perovskite solar cells. Here, the authors employ Eu(TFSI) 2 salts to generate superoxide ...

The expansion or swelling of a material due to water uptake relies on the material’s coefficient of hygroscopicity (CHE). The plot to the right in the figure below measures this property for Kapton, ...
