Whey as a Carrier Material for Blueberry Bioactive Components: Incorporation in White Chocolate
(MDPI, 2022)
White chocolate is considered an unhealthier product than dark and milk chocolate due to the absence of cocoa solids containing polyphenols and other valuable components such as minerals and dietary fiber. This paper aimed ...
Black Pine (Pinus nigra) Essential Oil as a Green Corrosion Inhibitor for Carbon Steel
(MDPI, 2023)
In this work, the essential oil of black pine (Pinus nigra J. F. Arnold) was used for the first time as a natural, ecological, and sustainable corrosion inhibitor for the acid cleaning of carbon steel. The essential oil ...
The Removal of Phosphate from Aqueous Solutions by Sepiolite/ZrO2 Composites: Adsorption Behavior and Mechanism
(MDPI, 2023)
The sepiolite/ZrO2 composites were prepared by sepiolite (Sep) modification with zirconium propoxide in toluene at room temperature for 24 h (Sep–ZrI) or 95 °C for 4 h (sample Sep–ZrII). The efficiency of the obtained ...
Exposure Factors in Health Risk Assessment of Heavy Metal(loid)s in Soil and Sediment
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
Heavy metal(loid)s (HMs) play an important role in economic development since they are used in various branches of industry. However, all industrial activities emit HMs into the environment, where they are no longer useful ...
The surprising discovery of two new subterranean Leptodirini of the genus Spelaeobates Müller, 1901 (Coleoptera, Leiodidae, Cholevinae) from Croatia after more than a century
(Pensoft Publishers, 2023)
Two new subterranean leiodid taxa of the genus Spelaeobates Müller, 1901 from three pits in northern Dalmatia (Croatia), S. coriniensis sp. nov. and S. coriniensis nonveilleri ssp. nov., are described. The morphological ...
Mechanical Properties of Electrolytically Produced Copper Coatings Reinforced with Pigment Particles
(MDPI, 2023)
Copper from sulfate baths without and with added inorganic pigment particles based on strontium aluminate doped with europium and dysprosium (SrAl2O4: Eu2+, Dy3+) was electrodeposited on a brass cathode by a galvanostatic ...
KIT-5-Assisted Synthesis of Mesoporous SnO2 for High-Performance Humidity Sensors with a Swift Response/Recovery Speed
(MDPI, 2023)
Developing highly efficient semiconductor metal oxide (SMOX) sensors capable of accurate and fast responses to environmental humidity is still a challenging task. In addition to a not so pronounced sensitivity to relative ...
Structure-Dependent Electrochemical Behavior of 2-Pyridone Derivatives: A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Study
(MDPI, 2023)
In this work, the electrooxidation ability of nine pyridones was evaluated using cyclic(CV) and square-wave voltammetry (SWV) in Britton–Robinson (BR) aqueous buffer solutions on aglassy carbon electrode (GC). The dependence ...
Clinoptilolite—An Efficient Carrier for Catalytically Active Nano Oxide Particles
(MDPI, 2023)
Many efforts have been devoted to produce green materials and technology to prevent and minimize the adverse effects on the environment and human health caused primarily by population growth and industrial progress. Over ...
Analysis of the Mechanism of Acid Mine Drainage Neutralization Using Fly Ash as an Alternative Material: A Case Study of the Extremely Acidic Lake Robule in Eastern Serbia
(MDPI, 2022)
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is a waste from mining sites, usually acidic, with high concentrations of sulfates and heavy metal ions. This study investigates the AMD neutralization process using fly ash (FA) as an alternative ...
