Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a fluid ejection controller is described. The fluid ejection controller includes a firing board to pass control signals to a fluid ejection device to eject fluid from the fluid ejection device. A mount pivotally holds the firing board between a disengaged position where electrical pins of the firing board are not in contact with electrical pads of the fluid ejection device and an engaged position where the electrical pins are in contact with the electrical pads. The mount includes a slot to receive the fluid ejection device and at least one biasing spring to bias the firing board away from the fluid ejection device during insertion of the fluid ejection device. The fluid ejection controller also includes a handle coupled to a cam shaft to move the firing board between the disengaged position and the engaged position.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine article includes a substrate and an environmental barrier coating disposed on the substrate. The environmental barrier coating includes oxygen-scavenging particles. Each oxygen-scavenging particle includes a silicon-containing core particle encased in an oxygen barrier shell.

Abstract: A reactor furnace for coating fiber tow includes an elongate reactor having a fiber tow inlet and a fiber tow outlet; a thermo-chemical reactor section positioned along the elongate reactor; a first microwave source for directing microwave energy along the reactor from a first end of the reactor toward a second end of the reactor; a second microwave source for directing microwave energy along the reactor from the second end of the reactor toward the first end of the reactor; a gas inlet upstream of the thermo-chemical reactor; and a gas outlet downstream of the thermo-chemical reactor.

Abstract: A swing bed absorption apparatus including a first absorption bed including a first plurality of solid amine based sorbent beads, a second absorption bed including a second plurality of solid amine based sorbent beads, and a solvent pump configured to alternately pump a liquid solvent through the first absorption bed and the second absorption bed. The liquid solvent is configured to alternately desorb the carbon dioxide from the first plurality of solid amine based sorbent beads and the second plurality of solid amine based sorbent beads.

Abstract: An example article according to the present disclosure includes, among other possible things, a metallic substrate, and a bond coat on the metallic substrate. The bond coat includes a matrix phase, gettering particles in the matrix phase, wherein the gettering particles are reactive with oxidants, and a dispersion of matrix modifier particles in the matrix phase. The example article also includes a diffusion barrier between the bond coat and the metallic substrate, wherein the diffusion barrier is configured to inhibit diffusion of components from the bond coat into the metallic substrate. An example composite material and method of applying a barrier to a substrate are also disclosed.

Abstract: A contactor configured for use in a dehumidification system is provided including a plurality of contact modules. Each contact module has a porous sidewall that defines an internal space through which a hygroscopic material flows. Adjacent contact modules are fluidly coupled to form a multipass flow path for the hygroscopic material through the contactor.

Abstract: A contactor configured for use in a dehumidification system is provided including a plurality of contact modules. Each contact module has a porous membrane that defines an internal space through which a hygroscopic material flows. A membrane property of the porous membrane of at least one contact module is substantially different than the other membranes of the plurality of contact modules.
