Influence of temperature on sorption process in hemp concrete

, 2016
International audienceHemp concrete is a bio-based material which is currently undergoing a growing development. Its hygrothermal behaviour highly depends on the evolution of the moisture content which has a significant influence on heat and moisture ...

Colour changes and equilibrium moisture content on thermomechanical densified wood

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
Color change associated with significative positive improve in physical properties is a challenge in wood research. This study investigated the changes in the color of the Gmelina arborea wood which underwent a thermomechanical densification process. The

Equilibrium moisture content and sorption characteristics of sweet potato [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences
The equilibrium moisture content of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) was determined experimentally at 20°C using the gravimetric method. Mathematical relationships describing sorption and desorption isotherms for relative humidity from 0 to 85 % were ...

Equilibrium moisture content of pumpkin seeds

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
Abstract The equilibrium moisture content of Pumpkin Seeds is studied and the sorption and desorption curves at temperature 20°C are obtained. The strain measurement method for taking down of sorption curves is used for the aim. Analytic dependences describing the sorption and desorption curves are derived. Values of equilibrium moisture

Overview of molecular signatures of senescence and associated resources: pros and cons

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cells can enter a stress response state termed cellular senescence that is involved in various diseases and aging. Detecting these cells is challenging due to the lack of universal biomarkers. This review presents the current state of senescence identification, from biomarkers to molecular signatures, compares tools and approaches, and highlights ...

MATHEMATICAL MODELING AND HYSTERESIS OF SORPTION ISOTHERMS FOR PADDY RICE GRAINS [PDF]

Engenharia Agrícola, 2019
Knowledge on sorption isotherms is important for predicting drying and storage processes of a product. A sorption isotherm can be generated from two processes: desorption and adsorption. The lag between these two curves is called hysteresis.

EQUILIBRIUM MOISTURE CONTENT FOR TWO PEANUT VARIETIES [PDF]

Misr Journal of Agricultural Engineering, 2009
Adsorption and desorption isotherms for two different varieties of peanuts, namely: Ismailia1 “Is1” and Giza5 “G5” were evaluated using the dynamic method of equilibrium moisture content “EMC”. Three different temperatures of the circulated air “T”: 30, 36 and 43 o C; four different levels of relative humidity “RH” namely: 2.5, 32, 46 and 87% were ...

Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.
