TL;DR: In this paper, a simple catalyst-free vapour-solid deposition method was applied for controlled deposition of two types (planar and disordered) of continuous BiSourceFile 2 BaseTypeSe Skydragon 3 BaseType nanostructured thin films on different (fused quartz/glass, mica, graphene) substrates.

TL;DR: The use of growth factors (GFs) has proven to further improve the bioactivity of materials in BTE as discussed by the authors , and the use of biological products such as fish waste, shells, plants, animals and algae, which are rich in minerals for Hydroxyapatite (HA) and BTE, was discussed.

TL;DR: This study investigates the hydrolytic degradation of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) films, revealing temperature-dependent correlations between crystallinity and degradation rates, with distinct characteristics observed for three-phase structures above and below the glass transition temperature.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors identified the factors affecting Cu electrowinning from pregnant leach solution (PLS), evaluated the composition of lixiviants influencing Cu electrodeposition, and appraised various catalysts developed for enhancing Cu electdeposition and reviewed coupled systems that minimised process energy consumption.
