Abstract: A product and method comprising a cellulose based release layer. The cellulose release layer comprising cellulose particles having at least one dimension in the nanoscale range. The cellulose release layer being between a mold surface and moldable mixture surface during a molding process. The method comprising releasing a moldable mixture from a mold where the moldable mixture may include a pre-adhesive. A molded product comprising a release layer on its surface after molding.

Abstract: The present invention provides a lithium-sulfur battery cathode material and a preparation method thereof, a lithium-sulfur battery cathode and a preparation method thereof, and the lithium-sulfur battery, and belongs to the field of lithium-sulfur batteries. The lithium-sulfur battery cathode material provided by the present invention includes MXene and functional carbon cloth, where the MXene is attached to a fiber surface of the functional carbon cloth, the MXene includes metal carbide or metal nitride, and metal components in the metal carbide and the metal nitride independently include titanium, vanadium, chromium or molybdenum; and the surface of the functional carbon cloth contains hydroxyl and carboxyl functional groups. The lithium-sulfur battery provided by the present invention has high cycle life, specific capacity and coulombic efficiency.

Abstract: An improved orienting disk is provided for better wood strand alignment in wood strand orienter machinery. The disk has a plurality of fin-like teeth projecting upwardly from the periphery of a generally circular plate. In a preferred embodiment each of the teeth has a straight leading edge facing the direction of rotation of the disk, and a curve trailing edge. Most preferably, the disk has six such teeth, each separated from another by 60° about the periphery of the disk.
