Protective Ceramic Coatings for Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) Balance-of-Plant Components by Raymond L. Winter, Prabhakar Singh, Mark K. King, Manoj K. Mahapatra, Uma Sampathkumaran

“…SOFC service life can be extended by preventing chromium- (Cr-) bearing species from evaporating from the interior surfaces of balance of plant (BOP) components and poisoning the cathode to increase the lifetime. We have developed yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) and aluminum oxide- (Al2O3-) modified sol-gel paints or inks for coating BOP components. 430 stainless steel (430SS) substrates with three surface conditions were coated with the 0.8–1.5 µm thick YSZ and Al2O3 paints. …”

Utilization of In-Hospital Care among Foreign-Born Compared to Native Swedes 1987–1999 by Björn Albin, Katarina Hjelm, Jan Ekberg, Sölve Elmståhl

“…The results indicate a tendency towards less health care utilization among migrants, especially men, as regards Symptoms, signs, and ill-defined conditions and Injury and poisoning. Further studies are needed to explore the possible explanations and the pattern of other diseases to see whether migrants, and especially migrant men, are a risk group with less utilization of health care.…”

Recent application of carbon nanotubes in energy storage and conversion devices by Abdulazeez Tunbosun Lawal

“…Moreover, the performance of CNTs in these energy devices can be improved by surface functionalization, heteroatom doping, structural modification, introductions of defects, promoting transport hydrodynamic processes, and resolving existing degradation issues, such as catalyst poisoning and precipitation. Owing to their highest specific capacitance, enhanced rate capability, and extended cycle life, CNTs have been used in electrochemical energy storage systems, such as supercapacitors, batteries, and supercapattery, as well in energy conversion platforms, such as fuel cells, microbial fuel cells, and solar cells. …”
