Comparative evaluation of reactive dye structures on colour strength enhancement in caustic‐treated regenerated bamboo fabrics

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Regenerated bamboo fibres offer a sustainable alternative to conventional cellulosic materials; however, achieving high and reproducible colour strength with reactive dyes may depend on both fibre accessibility and dye molecular architecture.

Success and failure in England's patent system: New evidence from patent applications, 1783–1834

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Our understanding of the relationship between the English patent system and technical change during the industrial revolution is based entirely on the study of successful patents. We address this feature by providing the first study of unsuccessful patent applications in England during the first industrial revolution.

Tracking the chemical life histories of spruce resin-beeswax mixtures through degradation experiments using reflectance-mode FTIR

Frontiers in Materials
Within residue analysis, experimental degradation studies provide a critical bridge between pristine, modern-day reference materials and the altered residues encountered archaeologically. Here we report on outcomes of a 3-year burial experiment involving

‘Elbow grease and yellow soap’: Housework time in working‐class households in late‐nineteenth and early twentieth‐century Britain

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Housework is central to feminist calls for recognition of women's work, economic histories explaining the sexual division of labour, and claims regarding the progressive role of scientific knowledge. Yet little is known about the time it actually took. We address this lacuna.

Mergers and Acquisitions as Navigators of Climate Policy Shocks: Evidence from the NOx Budget Trading Program

Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine how mergers and acquisitions (M&As) enable firms to adapt to climate policy shocks. Exploiting the adoption of the Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) Budget Trading Program (NBP) across US states as an exogenous shock, we find that firms with NOx‐emitting plants subject to the NBP are more likely to engage in M&As, particularly through vertical ...

Nutritional Characterisation of Acheta domesticus at Different Developmental Stages for Application in Animal Feed

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The house cricket Acheta domesticus has emerged as a promising alternative protein source for animal nutrition; however, limited information is available on how developmental stage influences its nutritional characteristics. This study compared subadults (30‐day‐old) and adults (40‐day‐old) crickets in terms of chemical composition, mineral ...

Improving The Tribological Characteristics of In-House Made Acid-Activated Iraqi Bentonite Lubricating Greases Using Graphite and Polytetrafluoroethylene Nanoplatelets as Additives

Diyala Journal of Engineering Sciences
Traditional soap-based greases such as lithium and calcium are no longer able to meet the requirements of high-performance lubrication due to their high cost and environmentally harmful nature, thus there is a need for new solid, non-organic and non ...
