Abstract: Polyethylene (PE) is an excellent electrical insulator, and is common in high voltage cable applications, where it is chemically cross linked to improve thermal stability, leaving cross ...
Abstract: Acetophenone and cumyl alcohol, main crosslinking byproducts, will accelerate the loss of insulation life of the polyethylene-insulated high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cables. In this ...
Some mosquito-borne viruses turn mice into alluring mosquito bait. Mice infected with dengue or Zika viruses — and people infected with dengue — emit a flowery, orange-smelling chemical that tempts ...
New research demonstrates that mosquito-transmitted flaviviruses such as Zika and dengue can manipulate skin microbiota of their hosts to produce a scent that attracts mosquitoes. Dengue is spread by ...
