We investigate the nature of the relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Corporate Financial Performance (CFP) by examining how it changes across a third dimension that accounts for firm-specific factors. We propose a semi-latent specification of an endogenous control...

CNTs yarns have become desirable alternatives for the metal wires in warmth health care clothing due to their features including flexibility, light weight, and mild far infrared emission. An efficient heating fabrics were prepared using CNTs yarns as wefts and metal core-spun yarns as electrode...

Three new sulfonated and semi-crystalline poly(ether ketone)-type copolymers with densely sulfonated microblock (Cr-SPEK) of different length are synthesized and evaluated as proton exchange membranes. The relationship between molecular structures of copolymers, microscopic morphology and macro...

High sulphur loading and lean electrolyte conditions are important to achieve the high theoretical energy density of Li-S batteries. However, serious problems such as low sulphur utilization and fast capacity fade are typically experienced under low electrolyte/sulphur (E/S) ratios and high...
