MECHANICAL AND THERMO-MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF HYBRID COMPOSITES PRODUCED FROM PALM FRUITS WASTES [PDF]

European Journal of Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
The mechanical and thermo-properties of hybrid composites produced from palm kernel fibres and palm kernel shells were determined. The palm wastes of three different sieve sizes (75 µm, 150 µm and 300 µm) were blended in the weight ratios (fibre/kernel ...

Current Challenges of Transcription Compartmentalization Research

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Transcription factors, coactivators, and RNA polymerase II assemble into transcription compartments ranging from small, defined complexes to liquid‐like condensates. This review unifies these seemingly competing descriptions along a single continuum and asks what these compartments have been shown to do, and what they have not, revealing that the most ...
