«Danger: Security»! Securitization Theory and the Paris School of International Security Studies by O. S. Gaidaev

“…This article continues the series of studies, entirely devoted to the phenomenon of securitization: from the early drafts of the theory towards the modern theoretical concepts.Some of the notions are introduced into the Russian academic use: “domains of insecurity,” “exceptional securitizing,”“diffuse securitizing.”The article focuses on analyzing the theoretical and philosophical underpinnings of the Paris School approach in general and the theory of (in)securitization in particular. …”

Characterisation of Luffa cylindrica Fibre from Cameroon for Use in Composites: Effect of Alkaline Treatment by Jean Aimé Mono, Assona Appolince Rachelle, Claude Takoumbe, Odette Thérèse Adegono Assiene, Prince Hermann Pokem Nguimjeu, Fabrice Ella Belinga

“…The results obtained show the lightness of the fibre through its low density (0.233-0.419 g·cm-3), and a hydrophilic nature of the fibre is observed through its water absorption capacity (106.86-180.53%), its relative humidity (9.86-15.33%), and its capacity to diffuse water (2.03×10−14 m2·s-1 to 4.61×10−14 m2·s-1), which is close to that of other plant fibres, which means that it can be classified as porous, with possible applications in insulating and lightweight materials. …”

Catalytic Activity of a Composition Based on Strontium Bismuthate and Bismuth Carbonate at the Exposure to the Light of the Visible Range by K. S. Makarevich, A. V. Zaitsev, O. I. Kaminsky, E. A. Kirichenko, I. A. Astapov

“…The presence of a wide-band semiconductor (BiO)2CO3 ensures an effective separation of electron-hole pairs. The diffuse reflection spectra (DRS) of compositions differ from the analogous spectra of a mechanical mixture of these semiconductor phases with the same composition, which allows one to assume the heterostructural structure of the semiconductor system. …”
