A study of the chemical and physical properties of Syncrude's tailings pond, Mildred Lake, 1980
Download1981
Selected chemical and physical properties of the tailings pond were examined in 1980. The distributions of specific variables with depth and season within the tailings pond were determined (temperature, pH, conductivity, suspended particulate matter, total solids, bitumen, major anions, major...

Most textile items are expected to maintain their properties over time, and thus, exhibit durability. Durability extends to mechanical integrity, color, and additional properties conferred by textile finishes. The durability of color is routinely measured in colorfastness tests, many of which are...

Air-and water-stable halide perovskite nanocrystals protected with nearly-monolayer carbon nitride for CO2 photoreduction and water splitting
Download2022-09-25
Halide perovskites are exciting candidates for broad-spectrum photocatalysts but have the problem of ambient stability. Protective shells of oxides and polymers around halide perovskite nano- and micro-crystals provide a measure of chemical and photochemical resilience but the photocatalytic...
