High‐pressure and high-temperature techniques are used to strongly modify the atomic interactions of matter while in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction characterizes the samples. This has enabled reliable experimental studies in a wide range of P-T conditions, like those presented here. Firstly, I will present the results of two $CO{_2}$-loaded pure-silica zeolites where the content of...
Alba synchrotron is going towards an important upgrade, Alba II, impacting the future characterization capabilities offered to the user community. In this framework, the high-pressure program is one of the Alba scientific programs that has to compete with other scientific areas serving wide user community. Thus, it is critical that HP techniques fit in the big picture of Alba II and the...
Poly(lactic) acid (PLA) is a biodegradable biopolymer which suffers from poor mechanical properties and high cost. The addition of polyethylene (PE) introduces a toughening effect which dramatically improves these material properties. Here we report on initial characterization of films produced by blown film extrusion and the re-organization of films as static loads are applied. The...
