Arsenic and Heavy Metal Concentrations in Agricultural Soils Around Tin and Tungsten Mines in the Dai Tu district, N. Vietnam

This study assessed the arsenic and heavy metal contaminations of agricultural soils around the tin and tungsten mining areas in Dai Tu district in northern Vietnam. Among the examined elements, high total contents of As and Cu were found in the agricultural fields at both tin and tungsten mining sites. Although the major part of the accumulated As and Cu were bound by various soil constituents such as Fe and Mn oxides, organic matter, and clay minerals, increases in water soluble As and Cu were observed, especially for the paddy fields. The results suggest that, in the studied area, As and Cu dispersion from their pollution sources into farmlands is mainly via fluvial transportation of mine waste through streams that cross the paddy fields around the tin mining area, and soil erosion at the tea fields located at lower positions of the slope in the tungsten mining area.

Piezo-resistive and thermo-resistance effects of highly-aligned CNT based macrostructures

Recent advances in assembling Carbon NanoTubes (CNTs) into macrostructures with outstanding properties, such as high tensile strength, high conductivity and porosity, and strong corrosive resistance, have underpinned potentially novel applications. For example, in advanced electronics, bioengineering and nanomechanics. This paper focuses on the development of (i) the piezoresistive polydimethylsiloxane-CNT (PDMS-CNT) composite membrane, and (ii) the thermo-resistive CNT hotwire using a technique of producing highly aligned CNT yarns and films. Our experimental results show that while PDMS-CNT films possess an outperformed gauge factor (10.7) compared with ones of CNT films in recent publications and several metals, a clear linear relationship of the resistance versus the temperature for a hotwire using CNT yarn is observed. Hence, the work supplies valuable evidence in the use of CNT films and yarns in several potential applications as thermal sensing elements and anemo...
