Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Tellurium-cobalt/polybutylene terephthalate (Te-Co/PBT) and Te/PBT nanocomposites were prepared via solution casting method. The morphological study presented that both Te and Te-Co nanoparticles (NPs) are well embedded inside the polymer matrix. The Te NPs are round in shape having size less than 150 nm. While Te-Co NPs are in agglomerated form. The size of agglomerated NPs are below 400 nm. The formation of NPs was also confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. thermogravimetric analysis presented that the thermal stability of nanocomposites was higher than neat PBT. Photodegradation study presented that the Te-PBT and Te-Co/PBT nanocomposites significantly degraded the bromothymol blue dye in aqueous medium. The neat PBT degraded about 7% and 21% of dye while Te(40 wt.%)/PBT and Te/Co(40 wt.%)/PBT degraded about 51% and 71%, and 56% and 77% dye, respectively within 2 and 8 h irradiation time.
