- 5From:Coatings (Basel) (Vol. 13, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedComplex environmental factors can significantly influence the micro-properties of porous asphalt (PA) mixture. Therefore, the effects of short-term and long-term thermal aging and moisture immersion on the micromechanics...
- 6From:Coatings (Basel) (Vol. 13, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedHydrophobic coatings have potential applications in various fields, including for corrosion and weathering protection. In this study, we investigated the use of organopolysilazanes (OPSZs) combined with hydrophobic...
- 7From:Energies (Vol. 16, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedThe present study investigates electricity consumption, carbon dioxide (CO2) emission, and economic growth decoupling using data from 1971 to 2020 for the economy of China. The study uses decoupling analysis (DA) as the...
- 8From:Sustainability (Vol. 15, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedIn modern agriculture, climate change, environmental degradation, and natural resource depletion constitute one of the major potential issues for sustainable crop production and environmental management. Integrated pest...
- 9From:Energies (Vol. 16, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedThe development of a country’s economy is directly related to the use of energy in that country’s economic sectors. Therefore, the energy–environmental Kuznets curve (EEKC) is often used when analysing a country’s...
- 10From:Materials (Vol. 16, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedRecently, the development of materials based on natural polymers have been observed. This is the result of increasing environmental degradation, as well as increased awareness and consumer expectations. Many industries,...
