From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 121) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT The physical role of water in cement-based materials is observed through the wetting of the grains, the need to fill the voids between particles and to separate these particles from one another, providing...
-
From:Georgia Journal of Science (Vol. 74, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedThe superhydrophobicity and the strong solid-liquid adhesion of the dually structured ZnO surface are attributed to the suitable size of microstructure and nanostructure. This phenomenon, so different from the Lotus...

From:Science (Vol. 285, Issue 5429) Peer-ReviewedThe reactive surface area of a dissolving sheet silicate, phlogopite, was quantitatively assessed in experiments performed in the fluid cell of an atomic force microscope at room temperature and pH values of 2 and 5.7....
-
From:Canadian Journal of Chemistry (Vol. 89, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedIn molecular optoelectronics, high-quality contacts at electrodelorganics interfaces are crucial for charge carriers to efficiently flow through and therefore play a critical role on device performance. Electrode...
-
From:Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering (Vol. 40, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedThis study investigates, experimentally and using finite element analysis, the adhesive bond between glass fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) and steel. Seventeen double-shear lap-splice were fabricated and tested in...
-
From:Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (Vol. 2016, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedThe effect of terrain heterogeneities in one-point measurements is a continuous subject of discussion. Here we focus on the order of magnitude of the advection term in the equation of the temperature as generated by...
-
From:Biotechnology for Biofuels (Vol. 9, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Coordination of synthesis and assembly of the polymeric components of cell walls is essential for plant growth and development. Given the degree of co-mingling and cross-linking among cell wall components,...
