Polyurethane composite behavior influenced by the characteristics of the employed bentonite filler
Bentonite clays are widely used in polymer composites due to their ability to enhance mechanical and thermal properties. This study investigates the impact of various bentonite types on the rheology of polyurethane (PU) foam formulations and the ...

Effect of dry or hydrated bentonite on the wool growth and liveweight gain of sheep fed wheat chaff
Many reports on the use of bentonite to increase wool growth indicate variable responses and it is often claimed that this variability is related to the chemical characteristics or the form in which the bentonite is fed.

Oligonucleotides form spontaneously through hot wet‐dry cycling of pure non‐activated nucleotides. No catalytic agents were added, and pH was naturally buffered by the nucleotides. Oligonucleotide formation was confirmed and quantified using mass spectrometry, spectroscopy and electrophoresis, establishing a solid baseline for the intrinsic extent of ...
