Emulsion stability and antimicrobial activity of Ionic liquid-based formulation [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
Chemical dispersants is one of the globally accepted remediation technique used for marine oil spill. However, the toxicity related with these dispersants confined its application in marine environment. Therefore, to overcome this problem, the employment

Diblock copolymer dispersants in polyester powder coatings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Poly(2-vinylpyridine)-b-poly( -caprolactone) copolymers have been used as dispersants for TiO2 pigments in a polyester/TGIC powder coating. In coatings without TGIC, the block copolymer dispersants prevented the flocculation of the TiO2 pigments at ...

The Dispersion Bias

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2017
Estimation error has plagued quantitative finance since Harry Markowitz launched modern portfolio theory in 1952. Using random matrix theory, we characterize a source of bias in the sample eigenvectors of financial covariance matrices. Unchecked, the bias distorts weights of minimum variance portfolios and leads to risk forecasts that are severely ...

Price Dispersion [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2003
We model firm pricing given consumers follow simple reservation price rules. Such reservation rules are rational when consumers are sufficiently impatient. The equilibrium exhibits price dispersion in pure strategies, with lower price firms earning higher profits.

The Development of Long-Term Adverse Health Effects in Oil Spill Cleanup Workers of the Deepwater Horizon Offshore Drilling Rig Disaster

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2018
BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to assess the long-term adverse health effects of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon Gulf oil spill exposure in workers who participated in its cleanup work.MethodsMedical charts of both the oil spill exposed and unexposed

LigniOx Lignins as Sustainable Bio-Based Dispersants

open access: yes, 2022
Recently, a concept of an alkali-O2 oxidation (LigniOx) process for producing lignin dispersants at a kraft pulp mill has been introduced. The LigniOx process uses O2 gas to increase the anionic charge of lignin and the final oxidised lignin product can ...

Distance-2-Dispersion: Dispersion with Further Constraints

open access: yes, 2023
The aim of the dispersion problem is to place a set of $k(\leq n)$ mobile robots in the nodes of an unknown graph consisting of $n$ nodes such that in the final configuration each node contains at most one robot, starting from any arbitrary initial configuration of the robots on the graph.

Mathematical model for calculating the force field of loads in the magnetic liquefied layer of electromechanical dispersants [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
The article presents an analysis of the dominant dispersants in the production of the agro-industrial complex. A qualitative transition to the level of a priori reduction of energy costs for the most energy-intensive in the process flow and process ...
