Wax Lipids from Leaf Surfaces of Some Common plants of Malaysia [PDF]
Epicuticular wax lipids from leaves of some common plant species found in the Klang Valley, Malaysia were extracted into dichloromethane for analysis. Extracts were separated into hydrocarbon, carboxylic acid, ketone and alcohol fractions. The fractions

Analysis of n-alkanes in the cuticular wax of leaves of Ficus glomerata Roxb. [PDF]
Leaf cuticle was covered by epicuticular wax consisting mainly of straight chain aliphatic hydrocarbons with a variety of substituted groups. The studies of cuticular characters of leaves had played an important role in chemotaxonomy. An n-hexane extract

Current Landscape: Use of Supercritical CO2 in the Wood Industry
The application of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) to successfully dewater as well as extract resin from wood is becoming increasingly popular due to its greener and less energy‐intensive approach. With world focus shifting to developing methods with greater efficiency while decreasing harm to the environment, scCO2 applications have begun to set ...

Scalable Liquid‐Phase Exfoliation of h‐BN for Solar‐Reflective and Thermally Stable Polymer Aerogels
High‐pressure homogenization exfoliates hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN) into stable nanosheets, which are incorporated into PVA, CMC, and HEC matrices to form lightweight composite aerogels. Tuning h‐BN loading (0–50 wt%) transforms the structure from porous to densely packed, tailoring optical, thermal, and mechanical properties. An optimized PVA/20 wt%

Microbial production of long-chain n-alkanes: Implication for interpreting sedimentary leaf wax signals [PDF]
Relative distributions as well as compound-specific carbon and hydrogen isotope ratios of long-chain C-25 to C-33 n-alkanes in sediments provide important paleoclimate and paleoenvironmental information. These compounds in aquatic sediments are generally
