Electronic vs Ionic limitations to electrochemical performance in Li4Ti5O12-based organic suspensions for lithium-redox flow batteries by Madec, L.

“…Here, we report the electrochemical response of the LTO/KB anolytes vs. lithium as function of the cycling rate in static mode (i.e. no flow) and using a home-made cell. The KB content was fixed at 3 wt% while the LTO content was varied between 15 and 25 wt%. …”

Hot and Hypoxic environments inhibit simulated soccer performance and exacerbate performance decrements when combined by Aldous, Jeffrey

“…Twelve male University soccer players completed three familiarization sessions and four randomized crossover experimental trials of the intermittent Soccer Performance Test (iSPT)in normoxic- temperate(CON:18◦C50%rH),HOT(30◦C;50%rH),HYP(1000m;18◦C50%rH),and HH(1000m;30◦C;50%rH).Physical performance and its performance decrements, bodytemperatures(rectal,skin,and estimated muscle temperature), heartrate(HR), arterial blood oxygen saturation(SaO2), perceived exertion, thermal sensation(TS), body mass changes, blood lactate, and plasma volume were all measured. …”

Ni-P-TiO2 Composite coatings on copper produced by sol-enhanced electroplating by Wang, Yuxin

“…Ni-P-TiO2 composite coatings were prepared on copper substrate by TiO2 sol-enhanced electroplating. A systematic study of Ni-P-X coatings with different sol concentrations (TiO2 concentration X from 0 to 50 mL/L) has been conducted in order to understand the effect of TiO2 sol addition and the strengthening mechanism. …”
