Thermal modification (TM) improves the hydrophobicity, dimensional stability, and durability of wood, but TM commonly results in severe color change and mechanical strength loss as wood is treated at higher temperature. In this study, Pterocarpus macroca...

Unrefined Camelina oil was transesterified on an alkaline catalyst with the application of commercial fuel ethanol of high hygroscopicity. It was shown that the rise of moisture content in alcohol up to 1 % leads to the low output of ethyl esters. T...

Atmospheric aerosols are evolving mixtures of chemical species. In global climate models (GCMs), this ?aerosol mixing state? is represented in a highly simplified manner. This can introduce errors in the estimates of climate-relevant aerosol properties, ...
