Cathode Materials for Intermediate Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cells by Jamila Nisar, Gurpreet Kaur, Sarbjit Giddey, Suresh Bhargava, Lathe Jones

“…Intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) operation provides numerous advantages such as high combined heat and power (CHP) efficiency, potentially long-term material stability, and the use of low-cost materials. However, due to the sluggish kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction at intermediate temperatures (500–700 °C), the cathode of SOFC requires an efficient and stable catalyst. …”

Nanodots of Transition Metal Sulfides, Carbonates, and Oxides Obtained Through Spontaneous Co-Precipitation with Silica by Bastian Rödig, Diana Funkner, Thomas Frank, Ulrich Schürmann, Julian Rieder, Lorenz Kienle, Werner Kunz, Matthias Kellermeier

“…Common synthetic strategies to arrest growth at small sizes and prevent undesired particle agglomeration often rely on the use of organic additives and require non-aqueous media and/or high temperatures, all of which appear critical with respect to production costs, safety, and sustainability. In the present work, we demonstrate a simple one-pot process in water under ambient conditions that can produce particles of various transition metal carbonates and sulfides with sizes of only a few nanometers embedded in a silica shell, similar to particles derived from more elaborate synthesis routes, like the sol–gel process. …”

Effect of sowing date on yield and quality of high moisture ear and grain production for maize by Zlatko Svečnjak, Boris Varga, Darko Grbeša, Zvonimir Štafa, Darko Uher

“…Both hybrids resulted in similar ear yield; however, a longer maturity hybrid (PR38P05) had larger grain yields than a shorter-maturity hybrid (PR39K38) because the latter hadsignificantly smaller shelling index (82,1 %) than the former one (87,0 %). …”

The Effect of Egg Cuticle Thickness on Physical Egg Quality Traits at Different Storage Durations and Conditions by M Duman, E Appiah

“…It was concluded that prolonged egg storage and storing eggs at room temperature results in a significant decline in the analyzed egg quality traits, with the exception of shape index and shell thickness. Also, as the egg cuticle layer becomes thicker, the rate of weight loss and shell-breaking strength are reduced, while the internal egg quality traits are preserved.…”
