The paper is focused on measurements of electric and thermal properties of alkali-activated aluminosilicates (AAAs) with a carbon nanotube (CNT) admixture. Such composites, fabricated from blast-furnace slag, quartz sand, ...

A recent work demonstrated on the example of the Landolt-type reaction system how the simplest autocatalytic loop is described by the kinetic mass action law and proper parametrization of direct and autocatalytic pathways. ...

The paper deals with the study of optical, electrical and dielectric properties of thin film organic materials suitable for the preparation of optoelectronic devices (e.g. photodiodes, phototransistors, photovoltaic cells). ...

Poly(hydroxyalkanoates) are biodegradable and biocompatible polymers suitable for tissue engineering. Fused depositon modeling (FDM) belongs to modern rapid prototyping techniques for the fabrication of scaffolds. In this ...

A sequential chemical extraction with a defined series of eluotropic organic solvents with an increasing polarity (trichloromethane < ethyl acetate < acetone < acetonitrile < n-propanol < methanol) was performed on peat-bog ...

Background: Experimental determination of the extent and rate of transport of liquid humates supplied to plants is critical in testing of physiological effects of such biostimulants which are often supplied as foliar sprays. ...

Recently, various cold plasma sources have been tested for their bactericidal and fungicidal effects with respect to their application in medicine and agriculture. The purpose of this work is to study the effects of a 2.45 ...

Natural lignite from South Moravia was tested for the sorption of fluoride anion in concentration range from 0.05 to 0.8 mmol/l. The lignite removes majority of fluorides and only about 13% of sorption is reversible upon ...

Plasmachemical process for conservation of metallic objects is a new way of effective and fast treatment of corroded objects. This process consists of two main steps: corrosion removal and deposition of a protecting film. ...

Using several reaction examples with experimentally determined rate equations, traditional mass action rate equations are shown to be simplified forms of polynomial approximation to a general rate function derived by ...
