Dimensional stability of heat treated wood floorings

open access: yesDrvna Industrija, 2008
Heat treated wood (HTW) is successfully applied for floorings due to its better moisture resistance, increased dimensional stability, and uniform colour change to darker, brownish colours.

An evaluation of the hygrothermal performance of 'standard' and 'as built' construction details using steadystate and transient modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Accurate assessment of both surface and interstitial condensation risk at the design stage of buildings is of great importance - not just to minimise the damaging effects moisture can cause to building envelopes, but also to contribute to the provision ...

Thermal Degradation and Thermal Decomposition of Plasticized PVC Including POSS Additives for PVC Compounds: Mechanisms, Impact, and Performance of Standards

open access: yesJournal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
Additives' structures. ABSTRACT Poly(vinyl chloride) has been a key polymeric material since its commercial production in 1931, demonstrating versatility across numerous industries due to its compatibility with various additives. PVC's inherent properties, flame retardance, durability, and recyclability make it ideal for building and construction ...

Characterization of storage-induced quality deterioration in Rambak crackers and development of an IoT-based humidity-responsive smart container

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
Rambak crackers made from cowhide hold significant social, cultural, and economic value. However, their hygroscopic nature makes them highly susceptible to quality deterioration during storage. This study aimed to investigate the quality deterioration of

Delamination of Vermiculite into Ultrahigh‐Aspect‐Ratio Nanosheets

open access: yesZeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, EarlyView.
Efficient ion exchange allows for thermodynamically driven delamination of vermiculite into high‐aspect ratio nanosheets. The applicability of sustainable materials in the packaging industry is currently limited by the poor gas barrier performance of most biodegradable polymers.

The plasticisation model of dye diffusion: Part 7

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Re‐evaluation using the Williams‐Landel‐Ferry equation, of exhaustion/fixation/adsorption data previously reported for four classes of anionic dye onto three different types of wool substrate, revealed that thermally activated dyeing/desorption behaviour is governed by the thermally regulated structural relaxation times of the respective water‐

Equilíbrio higroscópico da palma forrageira: relação com a umidade ótima para fermentação sólida Hygroscopic equilibrium of the cactus pear: relation with the optimum moisture for the solid fermentation

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2005
No estudo do processo de enriquecimento protéico da palma forrageira (Opuntia ficus-indica Mill) através da levedura Saccharomyces cerevisiae em meio semi-sólido, a atividade de água é uma das variáveis que mais afetam não apenas o processo fermentativo mas, também, o armazenamento desse enriquecido; desta forma, o presente trabalho foi realizado com o

The preparation of crystalline lactic acid [PDF]

open access: yes, 1933
On account of its importance in intermediary metabolism, lactic acid was among the first compounds chosen in our plan, which we have described in a previous communication (1), to augment the available data on the free energies of formation of substances ...

Fracture load and three‐dimensional internal void analysis of direct composites used to restore worn molars

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated (1) the load‐bearing capacity of molars restored with direct occlusal veneers fabricated either from short‐fiber‐reinforced composite (SFRC) or particulate‐filled composite (PFC) and the presence of internal voids within the materials, and (2) effect of water storage on the fracture load and correlation between internal ...
