THE EARLY PALEOZOIC HISTORY OF THE CUYANIA (GREATER PRECORDILLERA) TERRANE OF WESTERN ARGENTINA: EVIDENCE FROM GEOCHRONOLOGY OF DETRITAL ZIRCONS FROM MIDDLE CAMBRIAN SANDSTONES

The Early Paleozoic history of the Cuyania (greater Precordillera) terrane of western Argentina: evidence from geochronology of detrital zircons from Middle Cambrian sandstones

U-Pb geochronology of large detrital zircons populations is a powerful tool for interpreting sandstone provenance.Here, it is applied to three Middle Cambrian sandstones from the Precordillera of Argentina with the purpose of using the provenance interpretations to test paleogeographic and Water Bottle paleotectonic models proposed for the Cuyania

Preparation and characterization of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-glycerol composite films incorporating nanosilica from municipal solid waste incinerator bottom ash

This study investigates the fabrication of a composite film composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and glycerol, incorporating nanosilica derived from municipal solid waste incinerator bottom ash (BA).The nanosilica is blended with a PVA film-forming solution containing glycerol as a plasticizer.The composite films are characterized using Fourier tran
