Rare earth alloying in Cu enhances the C/Cu interfacial wettability for long-lasting copper-based electrical contacts by Bingtian Li, Zhenjie Guan, Yang Li, Ziyao Chen, Weijian Li, Liang Zhen, Wenzhu Shao

“…The ablation surface of the electric contact demonstrates that improved wettability can diminish carbon accumulation, thereby reducing the contact resistance from 50 mΩ to 2.2 mΩ after 1000 cycles at 380 V and 60 A, with a reduction of mass loss by 50%.This work reveals the bonding mechanism of C/Cu interface, which paves a way for rational design of C/Cu-based electrical contact materials.…”

Household air pollution exposure and risk of tuberculosis: a case–control study of women in Lilongwe, Malawi by Kenneth Maleta, Robert Krysiak, Irving Hoffman, Sam Phiri, Pamela Jagger, Ryan McCord, Anna Gallerani, Charles Jumbe, Joseph Pedit

“…We calculate ORs for developing active TB using indicators of HAP exposure including primary fuel used for cooking, cooking location and frequency of kerosene use for lighting, and in a subset of households, by directly measured cooking area and personal exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and carbon monoxide.Results We are unable to find an association between self-reported cooking with solid fuels and TB in our sample; we do find that increased frequency of kerosene use for lighting is associated with significantly higher odds of TB. …”
