  2. Bufferbloat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bufferbloat

    Bufferbloat is the undesirable latency that comes from a router or other network equipment buffering too many data packets. Bufferbloat can also cause packet delay variation (also known as jitter), as well as reduce the overall network throughput .

  3. Superabsorbent polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superabsorbent_polymer

    Superabsorbent polymers are now commonly made from the polymerization of acrylic acid blended with sodium hydroxide in the presence of an initiator to form a poly-acrylic acid sodium salt (sometimes referred to as sodium polyacrylate). This polymer is the most common type of SAP made in the world today.

    Energy materials are used for energy harvesting, storage, and conversion. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Applications of energy materials include photovoltaics , as well as piezoelectronics . The study of energy materials is usually interdisciplinary , uniting materials scientists , chemists , physicists , biologists , and engineers .

  5. Biogasoline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biogasoline

    From there, the materials go through further conventional chemical processing to yield the final result: a mixture of non-oxygenated hydrocarbons. These hydrocarbons are the exact hydrocarbons found in petroleum fuels, which is why today's cars do not need to be altered to run on biogasoline. The only difference is in origin.

    Zeolite is a family of several microporous, crystalline aluminosilicate materials commonly used as commercial adsorbents and catalysts. [1] They mainly consist of silicon , aluminium , oxygen , and have the general formula M n+

  9. Non-stick surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-stick_surface

    It is made from superhydrophobic (ultrahydrophobicity) materials. Droplets hitting this kind of coating can fully rebound. [26] [27] Generally speaking, superhydrophobic coatings are made from composite materials where one component provides the roughness and the other provides low surface energy. [28]
