Synthesis, properties, and environmental applications of nanoscale iron-based materials: A review

Abstract: Due to their special properties, people have been increasingly interested in studying applications of nanoscale metal materials in environmental engineering. Literature about the current research on the synthesis, properties, and environmental applications of nanoscale iron-based materials is reviewed and summarized in this article. Different physical and chemical methods used for synthesizing nano-iron-based particles with desired size, structure, and surface properties are described. We also emphasize important properties of nano-iron-based particles, including the density and intrinsic reactivity of surface sites. These properties directly influence the chemical behavior of such particles and, consequently, affect their applications in water and wastewater treatment and in air pollution control. Environmental applications of nano-iron particles are discussed in detail, including removal of chlorinated organics, heavy metals, and inorganics.

Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Primary Liver Cancer in China (2017 Edition).

Abstract: Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) (about 85–90% of primary liver cancer) is particularly prevalent in China because of the high prevalence of chronic hepatitis B infection. HCC is the fourth most common malignancy and the third leading cause of tumor-related deaths in China. It poses a significant threat to the life and health of Chinese people.

Review on microencapsulated phase change materials (MEPCMs): Fabrication, characterization and applications

Abstract: The use of latent heat storage, microencapsulated phase change materials (MEPCMs), is one of the most efficient ways of storing thermal energy and it has received a growing attention in the past decade. However, there is no complete overview of its utilization in thermal energy storage systems, and the information is widely spread in the literature. In this paper, a comprehensive review has been carried out for MEPCMs. Four aspects have been the focus of this review: fabrication and characterization of MEPCMs, applications of MEPCMs to the textile and building, fundamental properties of microencapsulated phase change material slurry (MPCS) and application of MPCS to the thermal energy storage system. Over 140 recent publications are referenced in this paper.

Participation Costs and the Sensitivity of Fund Flows to Past Performance

Abstract: We present a simple rational model to highlight the effect of investors' participation costs on the response of mutual fund flows to past fund performance. By incorporating participation costs into a model in which investors learn about managers' ability from past returns, we show that mutual funds with lower participation costs have a higher flow sensitivity to medium performance and a lower flow sensitivity to high performance than their higher-cost peers. Using various fund characteristics as proxies for the reduction in participation costs, we provide empirical evidence supporting the model's implications for the asymmetric flow-performance relationship.
