Quantifying the sources and health risks of groundwater nitrate via dual NO isotopes and Monte Carlo simulations in a developed planting-breeding area by Jianwei Liu, Shuo Qiao, Shilong Zhao, Hui Chen, Yong Wu, Donghao Li, Ping Liu, Ling Li

“…Analysis by combining stable isotopes (δ15N-NO3− and δ18O-NO3−) with the Bayesian isotope mixing model (MixSIAR) revealed that soil N (60.3 %) and manure and sewage (35.9 %) contributed the most NO3− in groundwater, followed by chemical N fertilizer (2.9 %) and atmospheric N deposition (0.8 %). However, the contribution of N fertilizer may be underestimated because it has undergone a long-term applied history and have progressively accumulated in the soil, and then promoted the entry of groundwater under frequent rainfall and irrigation practices. …”

Foamy Melamine Resin–Silica Aerogel Composite-Derived Thermal Insulation Coating by Dongfang Wang, Yabin Ma, Yingjie Ma, Baolei Liu, Dewen Sun, Qianping Ran

“…A novel class of SiO₂ aerogel-based resin composite with a self-formed foamy structure and an extremely low thermal conductivity, as well as excellent fire resistance, was fabricated via a room temperature and atmospheric pressure route. The self-formed foamy structure was achieved by utilizing SiO₂ aerogel particles not only as a thermal insulative functional additive filler but also as nano-sized solid particles in a Picking emulsion system, adjusting the surface tension as a stabilizer at the interface between the two immiscible phases (liquid and air in this case). …”
