Apollo 14 regolith breccia 14076, long known to be uniquely endowed with high-alumina, silica-poor (HASP) material of evaporation-residue origin, has been found to contain a diverse suite of complementary condensates, dubbed GASP (gas-associated spheroidal precipitates). GASP occurs in two forms: as glassy or extremely fine grained quenched-melt spheroids, mostly less than 5 lm across; and as q...

Nitrogen and water are very abundant in nature; however, the way they chemically react at extreme pressure–temperature conditions is unknown. Below 6 GPa, have been reported to form clathrate compounds. Here, we present Raman spectroscopy x-ray diffraction studies H2O–N2 system high pressures up 140 GPa. We find that clathrates, which locally our diamond cell experiments above 0.3 transform int...

Poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) is one of the contaminants in Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) recycling process. It known that high contents PBS PET significantly reduce properties, but effect low on has yet to be studied. This work studied influence recycled PET. Five formulations were prepared, and properties relative affinity, mechanical, thermal, disintegration under composting conditions...

Although the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic solar cells (OSCs) continue increasing toward 20% milestone, important factors for industrial application are mostly neglected, such as photostability and cost potential. Single-component OSCs (SCOSCs) employing materials with chemically bonded donor acceptor moieties successfully overcome immiscibility betwe...
