We study the effect of graphene (Gr) addition on the amorphisation and thermal stability of the Al88Ni6Y6 + x wt.% Gr (x = 0, 0.2, 0.5, and 0.8) alloys during mechanical alloying. The final milling-products consist of the amorphous phase and a few nanocrystals with face-centered cubic (fcc)structure, and the AlNiY(Gr) amorphous composites have been fabricated. We find that the 0.2 wt.% Gr addition obviously benefits the amorphisation and remarkably
Read moreDiabetes-associated cardiovascular dysfunction is characterized by homeostasis perturbation induced by systemic stressors, such as hyperglycemia, excess of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, shear-stress, and inflammatory environment. The recent data highlight the aggravating effect of local, organelles-related stress, manifest in mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), lysosomes, proteasomes, inflammasomes. The occurrence of local stress might
Read moreSealant materials are typically employed in dentistry in order to prevent the development of cavities on the teeth. They prevent bacterial adhesion to enamel, thus arresting the development of demineralization and of caries. In this study the critical zone of the interface between different sealant materials and the results of the dental work for the teeth processed were investigated ex vivo using Swept Source (SS) Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT).
