Antifungal effect and reduction of Ulmus minor symptoms to Ophiostoma novo-ulmi by carvacrol and salicylic acid [PDF]
There are still no effective means to control Dutch elm disease (DED), caused by the vascular fungi Ophiostoma ulmi and O. novo-ulmi. Plant phenolics may provide a new strategy for DED control, given their known antifungal activity against pathogens and ...

Curing and Decomposition Behaviour of Cresol Novolac Based Vinyl Ester Resin
Vinyl ester resins were prepared from o, m, p-cresol epoxy novolac resin and methacrylic acid in the presence of triphenyl phosphine as catalyst and hydroquinone as polymerization inhibitor. The vinyl esterresin samples having acid value of ~ 7 mg of KOH/

Enhanced photodegradation of o-cresol in aqueous Mn(1%)-doped ZnO suspensions [PDF]
The effective removal of o-cresol is currently both an environmental and economic challenge. ZnO is not only an efficient photocatalyst but is also cost effective, as its photoabsorption can extend from the ultraviolet (UV) to the visible range thereby ...

Electrochemical incineration of cresols: A comparative study between PbO2 and boron-doped diamond anodes [PDF]
The electrooxidation of aqueous solutions containing 5 mM of o-, m- and p-cresol at pH 4.0 has been investigated using a flow filter-press reactor with a boron-doped diamond (BDD) under galvanostatic electrolysis. All cresols are degraded at similar rate

Platinum catalyzed hydrodeoxygenation of guaiacol in illumination of cresol production: a density functional theory study [PDF]
The unprocessed bio-oil obtained by the pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass comprises hundreds of oxy-components which vitiate its quality in terms of low heating value, low stability, low pH, etc.

Evaluation of biodegradation kinetic constants for aromatic compounds by means of aerobic batch experiments [PDF]
Kinetics of aerobic biodegradation have been investigated for twenty aromatic species using sludges collected from the aeration basin of municipal sewage treatment plants. The reproducibility of the results is tested with respect to the sludges period of

Liquid-Liquid Equilibrium for the Ternary Systems of Solvent+ m/o/p-Cresol+Water: Thermodynamic Modeling [PDF]
In this study, NRTL and UNIQUAC thermodynamic models were used to predict the composition of ternary mixtures of solvents+ m/o/p-cresol+ water in organic and aqueous phases. Various solvents are used for the separation of cresols from water.
