Enhancing corrosion resistance of Mg-Al-Mn-Ca-Y dilute alloy via novel core-shell structured Al8Mn4Y-Al2Ca and controllable solute segregation by Xiaorui Dong, Min Zha, Dawei Wang, Siqing Wang, Yajie Yang, Hailong Jia

“….%), via incomplete peritectic transformation during twin-roll casting. When soaked in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution, Al2Ca shell with a low electrochemical potential prevents direct contact of noble Al8Mn4Y with Mg matrix, mitigating the micro-galvanic corrosion and meanwhile accelerating the formation of uniform corrosion film. …”

Effect of recycling on the time- and temperature-dependent mechanical properties of PP/MWCNT composite liner materials by Attila Bata, Péter Gerse, Krisztián Kun, Emese Slezák, Ferenc Ronkay

“…The improved Young's modulus and reduced creep tendency in recycled PP/MWCNT nanocomposites indicate that these materials can be used in Type IV hydrogen storage vessels, where long-term durability and resistance to mechanical stress are fundamental. In this study twin-screw extrusion was used to prepare the nanocomposites and their recyclates with 0.3, 0.5, and 1 w/w% MWCNT content, followed by injection molding to produce test specimens. …”

Caesarean section rates and indications in the Democratic Republic of the Congo: The case of Mbandaka City by Patrick Bongbanga Mundembe, Roger Mwimba Mbungu, Félicien Kandolo Tshimungu, Jules Moti Kangite, Jean Claude Efoloko Likulu, Guillin Boboko Bikoko, Monizi Mawunu, Jean-Paul Koto-Te-Nyiwa Ngbolua

“…Several factors significantly increased the likelihood of caesarean delivery, including macrosomia (16.4 times more likely), a scarred uterus (28.91 times), a shrunken pelvis (27.8 times), fetal distress (16.8 times), transverse presentation (32.1 times), and twin pregnancies (144.6 times). These findings highlight the substantial impact of medical conditions on caesarean delivery decisions, reflecting the high reliance on caesarean sections for managing childbirth complications in Mbandaka. …”
