TL;DR: The basic concepts, advantages, problems, and applications of enzymatic membrane reactors are reviewed in this article and a broad classification of this type of reactor is proposed based on the type of contact between enzyme and substrates that occurs in these devices.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the corrosion resistance of galvanised steel substrates pre-treated with bis-triethoxysilylpropyl tetrasulfide silane doped with cerium nitrate or zirconium nitrates.
Abstract: The present work aims at evaluating the corrosion resistance of galvanised steel substrates pre-treated with bis-[triethoxysilylpropyl] tetrasulfide silane doped with cerium nitrate or zirconium nitrate. The corrosion resistance of the pre-treated substrates was evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, during immersion in NaCl solutions. The chemical composition of the surface was assessed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and the surface morphology was studied by atomic force microscopy. The electrochemical results show that pre-treatments based on doped silane solutions provide good corrosion protection of the galvanised steel substrates. The work also aims at discussing the role of the dopants on the protective properties of the silane coatings formed on galvanised steel substrates.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study perturbations of spherically symmetric black hole spacetimes, assuming that the background scalar field vanishes, and show that these spacetime are stable, and small perturbation die away as a ringdown.
Abstract: Dynamical Chern-Simons gravity is an extension of general relativity in which the gravitational field is coupled to a scalar field through a parity-violating Chern-Simons term. In this framework, we study perturbations of spherically symmetric black hole spacetimes, assuming that the background scalar field vanishes. Our results suggest that these spacetimes are stable, and small perturbations die away as a ringdown. However, in contrast to standard general relativity, the gravitational waveforms are also driven by the scalar field. Thus, the gravitational oscillation modes of black holes carry imprints of the coupling to the scalar field. This is a smoking gun for Chern-Simons theory and could be tested with gravitational-wave detectors, such as LIGO or LISA. For negative values of the coupling constant, ghosts are known to arise, and we explicitly verify their appearance numerically. Our results are validated using both time evolution and frequency domain methods.
