In this study, the degradation of nitenpyram (NTP) using Ag@AgCl/ZnAl-LDH material photocatalytically activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) system was analyzed. As photocatalysts, Ag@AgCl and calcined zinc-aluminum layered double hydroxide (MMO) had high efficiency to achieve the separation of...

Development of supramolecular adhesion systems from small molecules is a promising strategy to construct adhesives integrating synthetic simplification and sophisticated properties. Here, we report a facile and green one-pot strategy for fabricating a solvent-free and dynamic supramolecular...

With the great economic and social development achieved in China in the past 40 years of reform and opening-up has come the extensive flow of China’s very large rural labour force between urban and rural areas and among regions, as well as populations of left-behind children and migrant...

China is experiencing an organ shortage crisis, and family opposition is one of the major factors that affect people’s willingness to donate in China. We experimentally test the effectiveness of the family-priority allocation rule on organ donation and argue that such incentive would be highly...

Revealing spatially varying relationships between urban growth patterns and underlying determinants is important for better understanding local dimensions of urban development. Through a case study of Nanjing, China, we employ both global and local logistic regressions to model the probability...

The feasibility of converting high-iron electric furnace ferronickel slag (EFFS) and high-calcium blast furnace ferronickel slag (BFFS) to refractory materials was assessed by sintering with the addition of low-cost sintered magnesia. The preparation and properties of the refractory materials...

Since the early 1990s, construction joint ventures are developing and evolving rapidly in China. However, there has been relatively little empirical research into Sino-foreign JVs in China's construction industry. This study investigates the management and operating performance of Sino-foreign...

A preliminary design efficiency-optimization of an axial-flow compressor, using one-dimensional flow theory, is studied in this paper. A model for the optimum design of a compressor stage, assuming a fixed distribution of axial velocities, is presented. The absolute inlet and exit angles of the...

A model for the optimal design of a multi-stage compressor, assuming a fixed configuration of the flow-path, is presented. The absolute inlet and exit angles of the rotor, the absolute exit angle of the stator, and the relative gas densities at the inlet and exit stations of the stator, of every...

This study aims to understand how buyer–seller relationship, competitive environment and guanxi affect Chinese manufacturers’ decision to implement Green Supply Chain Collaboration (GSCC). We also examine whether guanxi is able to mediate the buyer–seller relationship and GSCC...
