Do Intoxicated Offenders Deserve Harsher Sentences? Questioning Veritas in Vino

open access: yesJournal of Social Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Criminal courts increasingly treat intoxication as an aggravating rather than a mitigating factor in sentencing. This shift, seen in Australian law and other jurisdictions, raises the prospect of unjust outcomes. We examine this trend through the lens of desert‐based justifications for punishment, setting aside questions of deterrence and ...

Acid Sulfite Pulping of Hemp: Effects of Processing Conditions on Lyocell Pulp Quality

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 16, Page 3364-3381, 15 August 2026.
Industrial hemp is emerging as a promising renewable source for next‐generation textile fibers. This study evaluates whether acid sulfite pulping can produce hemp‐based dissolving pulp suitable for lyocell manufacturing. While the process is historically linked to increased cellulose accessibility, it did not achieve the low lignin content and ...

Manufacturing and characterisation of thermoplastic composite of hemp shives and recycled expanded polystyrene [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2017
There are two main problems caused by the huge volume of expanded polystyrene (Styrofoam) waste: the large amount of space that would be needed if it were to be disposed of in landfills and the excessive transport cost if it were to be recycled or incinerated. Consequently, the solution to these problems is the execution of two processes: the first one

Characterization of Tensile Properties of Cola lepidota Fibers

open access: yesFibers, 2022
Plant fibers are being increasingly explored for their use in engineering polymers and composites, and many works have described their properties, especially for flax and hemp fibers. Nevertheless, the availability of plant fibers varies according to the

Patterns, Predictors, and Correlates of Problematic Alcohol Use and Remission From Adolescence to Early Midlife

open access: yesAlcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, Volume 50, Issue 7, July 2026.
Late‐onset problem alcohol use (PAU) may be the result of novel stressors in adulthood, given the lack of association with childhood and adolescent environmental risk or genetic risk. Encouragingly, Remitted PAU resembled Never PAU in early midlife, despite having elevated genetic and prior environmental risk. ABSTRACT Background The goal of this paper

From Hemp Bast to Lyocell Fiber: Sustainable Process Optimization for Lyocell‐Grade Dissolving Pulp

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 16, April 20, 2026.
This study presents a sustainable method to produce lyocell‐grade dissolving pulp from Canadian hemp bast fibers. A simplified alkali‐chelation‐bleaching process, free from sulfur and chlorine, yielded high α‐cellulose pulp with low lignin and hemicellulose content. The pulp was successfully spun into continuous hemp‐based lyocell fibers, demonstrating
