Development of purification for high-quality boron nitride nanotube liquid crystals

Boron nitride nanotube (BNNT), a structural analog of carbon nanotube, has emerged as a key-enabling material in various fields of extreme/major science thanks to its transformative properties such as high oxidation resistance, high specific mechanical strength, piezoelectricity, and high neutron shielding capability. To harness its unique properties, it is essential to fabricate macroscopic BNNT articles […]

Fibronectin Type III domain-containing (FNDC) : facteurs clés dans les fonctions ovariennes chez la vache ?

La vache laitière est infertile pendant les premières 10 semaines après la mise-bas, ce qui est dû en partie à une sécrétion altérée des hormones libérées par le tissu adipeux et musculaire. Une famille de telles hormones s’appelle les ‘Fibronectin domain containing’, et pendant mon projet j’ai découvert que deux de ces hormones inhibent la […]

Performance study of low carbon footprint cement obtained through the electrochemical decarbonation of limestones used by the Canadian cement industry

The electrochemical decarbonation (ED) of limestone is a novel disruptive technology with the potential to promote deep decarbonization of the cement industry, which emits about 8% of carbon dioxide global emissions. ED uses water electrolysis cells to precipitate Ca(OH)2, which has been used as an alternative raw material for Alite synthesis, the main clinker compound. […]
