Enhanced Thermal Insulation and Flame-Retardant Properties of Polyvinyl Alcohol-Based Aerogels Composited with Ammonium Polyphosphate and Chitosan

Polyvinyl alcohol- (PVA-) based aerogels have attracted widespread attention owing to their low cost, eco-friendliness, and low density.However, the applications of PVA-based aerogels are limited by their flammability.In this study, a flame retardant, ammonium polyphosphate (APP), and a biopolymer, chitosan (CS), were added to polyvinyl alcohol (PV

Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of an Australian little penguin (Eudyptula minor novaehollandia, J.R. Forster, 1781)

In this paper, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of Champagne Flutes an Australian little penguin (Eudyptula minor novaehollandia).The mitogenome sequence has been found to be circular, and 17,608 bp in length.Similar to other Spheniscidae species, the genome encoded a typically conserved structure consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (P
