In today's era, nanoparticles (NPs) have become an integral part of human life, finding
extensive applications in various fields of science, pharmacy, medicine, industry, electronics …

Aluminum (Al) is a ubiquitous substance encountered both naturally (as the third most
abundant element) and intentionally (used in water, foods, pharmaceuticals, and vaccines); …

Given the significant presence of the carcinogenic Cr (VI) in arc welding fumes from
stainless steels, it is also important, in addition to estimating the Cr (VI) levels, to identify Cr …

Welding fume particles are hazardous. Their toxicity likely depends on their composition and
reactivity. This study aimed at exploring the role of sodium or other fluorides (NaF), which …

Welding is a very common operation in many industries and workplaces [1, 2]. According to
American Welding Society, it is defined as “a metal joining process wherein coalescence is …

Metal 3D printing has many potential uses within prototyping and manufacturing. Selective
laser melting (SLM) is a process that uses metal powders in the micrometer range as …

The intensive applications of nanomaterials in the agroecosystem led to the creation of
several environmental problems. More efforts are needed to discover new insights in the …

Abstract Objective Ultrafine particles (UFPs) are generated from common work processes
and have thus existed for a long time. Far more prevalent than engineered nanoparticles …

The main objective of this work was to evaluate the hypothesis that the greater transfer
stability leads also to less volume of fumes. Using an Ar+ 25% CO 2 blend as shielding gas …

The need for weight reduction without compromising load-bearing capacity has driven the
development of modern high-strength steels (HSS). The ability to take full advantage of …
