Persistent Alarms Confronting New Priorities: Protestants in Africa in Italian and French Catholic Magazines (1945–1962)

Journal of Religious History, EarlyView.
Anti‐Protestantism was one of the reasons for the revival of missions during the interwar period. By the 1960s, however, Protestants were less and less often mentioned as a threat to missionary efforts, and the decline in inter‐confessional tensions was increasingly considered a relic of the past.

Study of polypropylene morphology obtained from blown and cast film processes : Initial morphology requirements for making membranes porous by stretching

, 2005
Four different polypropylene (PP) resins are extruded using the tubular blown and cast film processes. The resin morphology is observed by SEM and the effect of extrusion processing variables on the morphology is investigated.

Ozone‐driven degradation of sex pheromone in Plutella xylostella: Implications for reproductive communication and mating success

Insect Science, EarlyView.
In this study, we examined whether realistic ozone concentrations can interfere with sexual communication in the insect pest Plutella xylostella, the diamondback moth. Ozone exposure caused a degradation of pheromone components, leading to significant changes in blend composition and component ratios.

Starch/polyester films: simultaneous optimisation of the properties for the production of biodegradable plastic bags

Polímeros, 2013
Blends of starch/polyester have been of great interest in the development of biodegradable packaging. A method based on multiple responses optimisation (Desirability) was used to evaluate the properties of tensile strength, perforation force, elongation ...

Immiscibility phenomenon in low density branched polyethylene, PEED, films in blown film extrusion process

CT&F - Ciencia, Tecnología y Futuro, 2000
The immiscibility in branched low-density polyethylene film was researched using techniques of instrumental analysis (FTIR, DRX, DSC, TGA, SEC-GPC, SEM-EDX) and rheometry (DMA, Capillary Rheomether). It was determined that immiscibility occurs when there are microentities generated by an undesirable polymer found in a low proportion in the mixture ...

Organizational Soundscapes and the Sonicity of Voices: The Power of the ‘Sounds’ that Carry ‘Words’

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Organizations are soundscapes – they resonate with sounds and particularly the sounds of voices. Somehow however voice sonics, that is the sounds of voices and not the words carried on those sounds, have escaped attention in management studies. This absence of analysis is peculiar given voice sonics' undoubted influence on management (they may

Extracting vitalities: Cuts in Indigenous women's bodies‐territories (Brazil)

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, I explore the connections between the medicalization of childbirth and environmental devastation through Guarani‐Mbyá understandings of life and the living. I argue that the cuts made to Guarani‐Mbyá women's vaginas (episiotomies) in Brazilian hospitals are experienced and situated on the same cosmopolitical level as the cuts ...
