The role of Zn in C-S-H atomic structure, nucleation and growth

The most promising solution towards cementitious materials with a lower carbon footprint is the partial substitution of the clinker by supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) such as fly ash, blast furnace slag, limestone and calcined clays. The produc ...

Pivotal Role of Intersite Hubbard Interactions in Fe-Doped alpha-MnO2

Iurii Timrov

We present a first-principles investigation of the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of the pristine and Fe-doped alpha-MnO2 using density-functional theory with extended Hubbard functionals. The onsite U and intersite V Hubbard parameters ar ...

Increased nickel exsolution from LaFe0.8Ni0.2O3 perovskite-derived CO2 methanation catalysts through strontium doping

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Patrick Simon Steiger

Perovskite-derived Ni catalysts offer the remarkable benefit of redox stability that allows their regeneration after deactivation through poisoning or Ni particle growth. Here, the catalytic activity of LaFe0.8Ni0.2O3 towards CO2 methanation was improved b ...

Hydrogen storage and electrochemical properties of LaNi5-xCux hydride-forming alloys

Andreas Züttel, Natalia Gasilova, Mariana Spodaryk

LaNi5-type alloys are commercial materials for the negative electrode in Ni-MH rechargeable batteries. Partial substitution of La by mischmetal (Mm) and of Ni by elements like Co, Al, and Mn significantly improve the cycle stability and high-rate discharge ...

Alloy development of a new platinum-based bulk metallic glass

Hamed Kazemi

The aim of the present thesis is the development of a new Pt-based bulk metallic glass based on the ternary system of Pt-B-Si that i) complies with the hallmarking standard Pt 850 (i.e. with at least 85 wt.-pct of Pt); ii) provides high hardness (HV>600) a ...

Enhanced Rate of Acquisition of Point Mutations in Mouse Intestinal Adenomas Compared to Normal Tissue

Jörg Hülsken, Paloma Ordonez Moran

The most prevalent single-nucleotide substitution (SNS) found in cancers is a C-to-T substitution in the CpG motif. It has been proposed that many of these SNSs arise during organismal aging, prior to transformation of a normal cell into a precancerous/can ...

Electromechanical properties of Al0.9Sc0.1N thin films evaluated at 2.5 GHz film bulk acoustic resonators

Paul Muralt, Evgeny Milyutin, Ramin Matloub Aghdam, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Alvaro Artieda

AlN films are employed in RF filters for wireless communication. We report on enhanced coupling factors k(t)(2) obtained by partial substitution of Al by Sc. Al0.88Sc0.12N films were deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering from an Al0.9Sc0.1 alloy targe ...

Synthesis of Unusual Oxime Ethers by Reaction of Tetranitromethane with B-Alkylcatecholboranes

Philippe Renaud, Kurt Schenk

The reaction of tetranitromethane with B-alkylcatecholboranes leads to the formation of unusual dinitrooxime ethers. A tentative mechanism is provided, which suggests the involvement of extremely fast addition of alkyl radicals to tetranitromethane. The su ...

Improved stability of La0.5Sr0.5FeO3 by Ta-doping for oxygen separation membrane application

Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Defne Bayraktar

(La,Sr)FeO3 mixed conducting perovskites are considered as interesting candidates for oxygen separation membranes but they suffer from limited structural stability in a large oxygen partial pressure (pO2) gradient, because of their propensity for chemical ...

Characterisation of phases in nanostructured, multilayered titanium alloys by analytical and high-resolution electron microscopy

Philippe Buffat

Surface processing of a Ti–6Al–4V alloy led to a complex multilayered microstructure containing several phases of the Ni–Ti–P–Al–O system, which improves the mechanical and tribological surface properties. The microstructure, chemical and phase composition ...

Oxygen transport in La0.5Sr0.5Fe1-yTi yO3-δ (y=0.0,0.2) membranes

Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Defne Bayraktar

The influence of partial substitution of Fe with Ti on the oxygen transport properties of La1- xSrxFeO3 membranes was investigated in view of their application for oxygen separation. Samples of composition La0.5Sr0.5 Fe1-yTiyO3-δ (y = 0, 0.2) were prepared ...
